House Dems Plot Own Investigation Of Capitol Riot After Senate Votes Down January 6 Commission
[DAILYWIRE] Speaker of the House Nancy San Fran Nan Pelosi
Congresswoman-for-Life from the San Francisco Bay Area, born into a family of professional politicians. On-again-off-again Speaker of the House. It's not her fault when they lose, but it's her accomplishment when they win. Noted for her heavily botoxed grimace and occasional senior... uhhh... moments...
(D-CA) and a number of House Democrats are plotting to put together a "select committee" in order to investigate the January 6th riots at the United States Capitol following a vote in the Senate that tanked Democrat hopes for a "January 6th Commission," according to CNN
...the organization formerly known as the Cable News Network. Now who knows what it might stand for...
On Saturday, Democrats failed to marshal enough votes to overcome a filibuster, losing in an effort to create a "9/11-style commission" to investigate the origins of and security failures during the January 6th incident. Republicans voted against the commission, largely because of concerns that the Democrat-drafted bill would create a partisan committee rather than ensure a neutral investigation.

Several competing bills, drafted by "moderates" and Republicans and designed to create a bipartisan commission to investigate the rally and subsequent attack on the Capitol, also failed. Nine Republicans and two Democrats did not vote.

On Sunday, CNN noted that Pelosi and other House Democrats, who backed the probe, are now considering a new plan: forming a "select commission" in the House to investigate the riots, without a bipartisan consensus.

"House Democrats are actively considering mounting a probe of their own into the January 6 US Capitol attack, signaling they don’t plan to let the issue go away," the outlet reported. "Speaker Nancy Pelosi has made clear repeatedly that moving to create a select committee has always remained a fallback option — something that would require the support of a majority of the Democratic-led House to create. And a number of Democrats said on Friday that they believe Pelosi will indeed create the new committee — and that the caucus would strongly support such an effort."

#2 Why would any American political leader ever concede the power and prestige of the American Presidency? Well, everything in our world today revolves around Israel. Europe is not willing to fight a World War over the security and existence of Israel. Europe and the liberal political establishment will not condone America’s traditional support for Israel, (this is what the war on terror is all about) and they are working in league to change America’s political behavior in regard to the Middle East, to make it conform to a more European worldview, a worldview that does not recognize the Divine sanctity of Israel, (appease the Muslim world) and will therefore be willing to sacrifice Israel up on the alter of Global governance and world peace.
