[Fox News] The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol is holding its first hearing Tuesday, kicking off what is likely to be a politically charged and contentious several months focusing on the violent day. Won't such public testimony taint ongoing criminal investigations? The Tuesday hearing focuses on "The Law Enforcement Experience on January 6th." The four witnesses at the hearing are Private First Class Harry Dunn and Sergeant Aquilino Gonell of the U.S. Capitol Police, and Officers Michael Fanone and Daniel Hodges of the Metropolitan Police Department. They provided detailed and emotional testimony about the attack on the Capitol. "To be honest, I did not recognize my fellow citizens who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 or the United States they claimed to represent," Gonell, an immigrant and Army veteran, said. "The rioters called me traitor, a disgrace, and shouted that I, I, an Army veteran and police officer, should be executed." Instead, an Air Force veteran was executed. "I heard specific threats Antifa loaners from Portland? Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., who is a vocal critic of Trump, followed Thompson with comments lamenting that a bill for a special commission modeled on the 9/11 Commission failed in the Senate. But, she said, the committee must investigate the events of Jan. 6 anyway. "We must know what happened here at the Capitol," she said. "We must also know what happened every minute of that day in the White House. Every phone call. Every conversation. Every meeting leading up to during and after the attack." That'd be interesting, if unlikely. Lots of horrifying testimony follows. |

#4 With fair elections, there is a good chance Pelosi will be removed from office in 2022; certainly removed as Speaker. |

#3 Yes, testimony loaded with 'made for teevee' video and emotion. A bit light on fore knowledge, causation, and facts. And there I was in my freshly pressed uniform and they called me a 'worthless Mick pig.' You can easily understand my frustration and desire to shoot every last one of them. |

#2 Besoeker, Because the FBI knows Antifa & BLM infiltrated and had a script the Feds have on tape. My guess. |

#1 Lots of testimony from U.S. Capitol Police personnel. Apparently nothing from the FBI. Very curious. |
