Pelosi just announced a committee on the capitol Riot.

I think she made a huge mistake when a question was asked about a timeline. She said the republicans will have all the time they need to investigate this. The republicans have been given that leeway will not be anywhere near being done by the 2022 election and maybe the 2024 election.

Select committees are led by the Democrats and as such, the R's that are included on the committees do not have the final say on anything.
