Nancy Pelosi’s Jan 6 crying clown show hearing a big dud

Sorry Nancy and the crying politicians that particpated in the Jan 6th “commission” hearing this past week. It seems America saw right through it and support for the investigation plummeted after all the phony, crying done by the Adam twins Schiff and Kinzinger, plus the phony Capitol police. Since June, support for this “investigation” has dropped 13 points in the polls and it’s likely to get worse for Pelosi and the phonies.

Why the continued fall in support for the committee? I think the answer is obvious. There’s a lot of peer pressure that comes along with talking about January 6th. Someone that dares to suggest it wasn’t the worst attack on the country since the Civil War is often derided and called an apologist, even if they otherwise hold a nuanced view of condemnation of the events. But as the reality of the committee has become clear for all to see — that it is a publicity stunt with no intention of investigating anything relevant — people are finally saying enough.

Nothing that happened on the first day of the hearings was newsworthy. One officer, Harry Dunn, tried to promote himself as an unbiased observer just telling his story. He ended up lying directly about the events of January 6th while failing to note he’s a rabidly left-wing partisan. That kind of thing doesn’t sit well with people who were otherwise on the fence about whether to support the committee or not.

Further, no amount of fake crying can substitute for substantive investigation. Questions about the security failures, including the failures of the USCP and their Congressional leadership, are actually within the purview of Congress. Yet, Pelosi has no interest in exploring those topics and ensured no Republican would sit on the committee who would push the issue. Instead, she ensured the committee will be nothing more than a factory for recriminations and campaign commercials.

Lastly, there are a lot of Americans sitting at home right now dealing with high inflation, a lagging economy, the repercussions of a border crisis, and mindless COVID measures. They are probably not too keen on seeing Congress waste time on Adam Schiff ranting about something that isn’t material to any normal person’s life. The entire committee comes across as a tone-deaf misappropriation of priorities.
