Democrats are again stonewalling Republican attempts to conduct legitimate oversight of the Capitol security failures on Jan. 6, 2021 by refusing to compel monthly reports from the Jan. 6 Committee, as required by House rules.
On Jan. 19, House Republicans investigating the Jan. 6 security breach demanded House Administration Chair Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., enforce rules that mandate the regular release of reports on committee progress.
"Monthly reports for all Committees are supposed to be posted on the Committee on House Administration's website to ensure transparency and provide accountability for Committee investigation and use of official resources," wrote Reps.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's Select Committee on Jan. 6 has operated entirely in secret just as the Democrats' ad hoc impeachment inquiry on the pretext of Ukraine did in 2019, with J6 Committee members deposing private citizens whose appearance is compelled under questionable authority.
Even in 2019 House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., who also now serves on the Jan. Committee, complied with the Committee's Congressional Handbook and released monthly reports.
Ohio Republican Rep. Jim Jordan was also kicked from Pelosi's probe last summer, leading House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy to pull Republicans from the committee that now operates absent of any GOP appointments.
Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., and Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill. "The American people deserve a transparent accounting of the J6 Committee's operations, budget, and staff structure, as well as its interview and deposition procedures," Banks and Davis wrote as the partisan probe violates norms and targets political opponents.
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.
