Usually, the creation of another sweeping, lumbering government commission is no worse than a new chapter in the history of Washington overreach.
This fetish for a commission to wallow into the mire of the January 6 Capitol uprising is far worse: it is a planned exercise in malicious political theater designed to create heat while shedding no new light.
A January 6 kangaroo commission is not simply a waste of money, and it is far worse than a waste of time.
Look who's manning the engines of this farce-Democrats and their useful dance partners in the tiny Trump-hating wing of the GOP. The "Bipartisan" push for the commission was reached in a clubhouse handshake between House Homeland Security Chair Rep. Bennie Thompson and Rep. John Katko of New York, one of the ten Republicans who voted for impeachment.
As the pushers of this commission attempt to undeservedly paint it with comparisons to the highly-regarded 9/11 commission, be aware of their motive.
They're not just adding legitimacy to their gambit; they seek to draw an equivalency between January 6 and the horrors of 9/11 itself, with its death toll of thousands and its ensuing decades of global conflict.
If we wanted to devote some time to an unresolved matter that still cries out for clarity, where an honest assessment of evidence would be of value to all Americans, what we really need is a November 3 commission.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
