Related: About this forumRepublicans Want To Release Their Own Alternative Reality January 6th Report - Ring of Fire
The Republican Party declined to be a part of the January 6th Select Committee (the efforts to create a bipartisan commission died in the Senate) but that won't stop them from releasing their own report about what happened that day. New reports say that Republicans in the House are considering drafting their own version of a "report" to release at the same time that the REAL committee's report is made public. One can only imagine what kind of nonsense the Republican report would contain. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

OP
I think that some of them will wind up 'participating', whether they want to or not.

The House Select Committee has already interviewed over 300 witnesses...

Preferably, under oath.

(206,052 posts)7. Good point! And that's what we've all been waiting for
And that's the reason that the likes of Gym Jordan were not permitted on the Committee.

well, there's video of what actually happened.

(206,052 posts)4. And they're finding even more video every day.
These insurrectionists had the foresight to record exactly what they did! (Not to mention the body cams of the Capitol Police.)

It's worked among their "supporters" before...
