When I served on the January 6th Committee in 2021, I was proud to work with Democrats and Republicans alike to protect our democracy by uncovering the truth about Donald Trump’s role in inciting the attacks on the Capitol.
But now at Trump’s insistence, MAGA Republicans are opening a new subcommittee to re-investigate January 6th that they claim will “deliver the answers that House Democrats skipped over.”
John, it’s clear that this subcommittee isn’t looking for justice. They’re seeking political retribution for their opponents – and attempting to whitewash the events of that tragic day.
Since he returned to office, Donald Trump has abused his federal authority to pardon insurrectionists while attacking officials who were brave enough to report the truth – like myself and the rest of the January 6th Committee.
Now, as Donald Trump ramps up his attacks on our Constitution and democracy, it’s even more crucial that we hold him accountable so an attack like this never happens again.
