weekend, my friend. thanks to all of you at home. one of the biggest news stories of the century with the january 6th attack on our and capitol the congressional investigation that followed. there were ten public hearings in which the committee presented damning evidence showing that former president trump not only riled up the crowd, within sat back and watched as a violent crowd try to steal an election. it was dramatic. and it was reveler tory. and it was hugely compelling. but we now know, thanks to polling conducted by monmouth university, that those january 6th hearings did not shift public opinion at all. about the same number of people would call it a riot. about the same number of people would call it legitimate protest. in every way, the monmouth poll, the members were basically the same, before and after the january 6th hearings. now there are a lot of reasons why that might be the case. but a huge one a reason that cannot be ignored is this one. fox news did
