In reply to the discussion: Remember when some folks here on DU said the J6 Committee would be ignored [View all]Hamlette
(15,412 posts)89. I remember getting together with friends who said the same thing
this was after the first hearing and they all said it was worthless and a waste of time.
I yelled at them. Well, not yelled. I said they are interesting and important and every American should watch them if they want to be informed.
They all started watching and now can't stop talking about how great they were.
What was different was we didn't have to listen to the other side ask inane questions and try to derail everything. So I can understand if you expected that kind of hearing not wanting to watch. Hearings in which Trump republicans participate are a waste of time.

No, I don't remember anyone suggesting J6 would be ignored, only by the Cult followers of course
