Speaker nancy pelosi announcing the formation of a select committee to investigate. This morning with great solemnity and sadness im announcing that the house will be establishing a select committee on the january 6 insurrection. Again, january 6th was one of the darkest days in our nations history. Ive said it now three times. It is imperative that we establish the truth of that day and ensure that an attack of that kind cannot happen and that we root out the causes of it all.

Last month only six gop senators voted alongside all of the democrats in favor of it falling short of the 60vote threshold. The select committee follows months of White Washing of the horrors of january 6 by republicans including calling it a peaceful protest and likening the insurrectionists to everyday tourists.
