Earlier this month, Republican Rep. Andrew Clyde claimed the deadly Capitol attack looked like a “normal tourist visit.” Rep. Paul Gosar said the mob was a group of “peaceful patriots.” Sen. Ron Johnson also said it was a “peaceful protest.”
And to top it off, last week 175 House Republicans voted against creating an independent, 9/11-style commission to fully investigate the attack.
These attempts to rewrite the events of that tragic day are setting us on a dangerous path.
Our latest video explains why we cannot simply move on from January 6th and start a new chapter. If we do, we’re inviting greater tragedies in the future. [[link removed]]

Trump’s big lie will continue to flourish unless the lawmakers who went along with it and have failed to renounce it face real consequences.
That means a thorough independent 9/11 type inquiry into what happened, whether members of Congress were involved, and what role Donald Trump and others played.
Republican leaders must not duck this. History is watching. They must be held accountable to the truth.
Otherwise the trauma of 2020 will return — perhaps in even more terrifying form.
Thanks for watching,
Robert Reich
