McCarthy’s going to put some assholes on the Jan 6 select committee. All Trump defenders.

I don’t necessarily have a problem with Trump defenders being on the committee. If they have evidence which would exonerate Trump, that should be brought forth. [I don’t believe there is, but they didn’t ask my opinion.]

The asshole part though is another story. People like Rep. Taylor-Green or Rep. “Asparagus” Gohmert aren’t interested in anything but grandstanding and derailing.

I hope whoever is the committee chairperson is good with a gavel.

I would really like to see Del. Stacey Plaskett, Rep. Katie Porter, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and others who are very good at asking probing questions and sewing them together into a simple narrative on that committee.
