Another Witch Hunt orchestrated by the Red Party during the most useless and ridiculous Congress in History. Your tax dollars being wasted for Entertainment.

[@MarsiaAschierirz-wv5oq]

Thank you rep. Massie. The only one not afraid to ask questions!

[@49Newlife]

Show it to him right now.

[@grantnitewahl]

Thompson and treason fit like hand-in-glove!

[@jeffwebb-eb5hg]

FBI FINGERPRINTs ALL OVER THIS ###

[@justintime41776]

CIA and NSA probably as well.

[@doug6723]

Yeah right, so what exactly is the point of the FBI planting bombs? The FBI is run mostly by Reps. So clearly logic isn't your forte.

[@TheH10ne]

Secret service, CIA, mossad, all the slimy demons who stoke war everywhere

[@juanitaross5492]

Actually, that's a conspiracy theory. The FBI had nothing to do with these people who showed up in tactical gear and weapons. This was planned by many extremists, and a few innocents got caught up in the crowd going crazy over Trump's lies.

[@mackcappel844]

Yes, CIA is completely part of this crime!

[@ultra9693]

Bennie how much money did you get for lying to the American people.

[@irenegalvan7996]

He did not lie what do you call all those proud boys and the rest of the people that went to the building and beating up the officers that are protecting the president and all the government people that work inside because you started all this because you lost take it like a man and look at where the proud boys are at now in jail for 28/20/22 year saying why is he still walking around because he has the money to stay out and he said he would not pardon the proud boys because they did it on there own they even said trump ask them to come it is ok proud boys he is going to court himself

[@irenegalvan7996]

He is not taking hush money 💲💵💸💰 like the other people trump paid off and left them with out a spine but remember money don't get you far look at trump all those lawyers and the fake electors that are going to court and pointing fingers 👉👈 at each other and trump is next 👈 they are not going to go down quite 😶

[@darrellepickering8433]

I would keep records from anything to do with DHS.

[@rgsliwa8298]

It's a crime and this is unacceptable.

Jan 6: brought to you by the warped mind of Nancy Pelosi....

[@koboldbenchpress]

Or DJT who spent months lying and crying he got beat at the ballot, then got beat in court when his nonsensical claims were dismissed. Every claim brought about fraud has been thoroughly debunked.

[@jonearley]

Convenient she had that film crew there, huh? Almost planned and like she knew she'd need them.

[@koboldbenchpress]

it was a historic day, and there are cameras on 24/7 in dc, cell phones. CSPAN is pretty much in the capital 24/7@@jonearley

[@jonearley]

@koboldbenchpress yes, we saw the fist-bumps and the guided tours being given that day.

[@koboldbenchpress]

there are multiple entrances to the capital, the "tour" I believe was house ways and means entrance. It would make tactical sense to move that crowd in an orderly fashion to an easier to defend area. We also all saw the protestors who werent so orderly, so showing that doesnt diminish the violence that took place elsewhere that day@@jonearley

[@bpooboi]

Those people should be in jail,

[@mandylucas123]

Massie hitting it out of the park again!!

[@notagain2422]

AND THERE ARE PRISONERS STILL ROTTING IN JAIL BECAUSE OF THESE LYING DEMOCRATS, HOW EVIL THESE PEOPLE ARE

[@anthonyfernandes2842]

Why is no one asking about the people who are still rotting in jail after the Jan 6 false imprisonment. There should be some human justice about the matter. Is this a Banana Republic.

[@donaldbeamer3563]

​@@anthonyfernandes2842 They'll treat them the same way they did to Leonard Peltier. They have determined that he was not responsible for any deaths but still will not release him.

This is exactly why Bennie Thompson was made chairman - a fallguy. Saw that coming from Day 1.

He deleted tons of Jan 6 Committee files….it would expose who really instigated the “insurrection” as the DNC.

He doesn't care. He is probably paid handsomely.

[@mattmarzula]

Just listening to him I can tell he's not fit for arriving at a conclusion of an investigation. He's fit for coming to the conclusion he's told to and putting his name on it.

​@@dorothymiddaugh6234no, seems more like the black leaders are being put out there to do the dirty work so the rest dont get the ire from the people who oppose. Cowardly people.
