[Thoughts on May 22, 2021, revisited and extended on May 22, 2026]
"Today, Senator Angus King, Jr. (I-ME) came out and said it: 'We need answers on the 1/6 insurrection—but many of my [Republican] colleagues are indicating they will vote against an independent investigation. When people start moving heaven and earth to block an investigation, I have to wonder if there is something to hide.'” — Heather Cox Richardson . 05.20.21 on her fine Facebook feed
[Note: Do you recall any serious attempts to block the seven far-from-independent investigations and 30+ Congressional hearings into the killing of four Americans at the US embassy in Benghazi?]
In words attributed to the little-known but reportedly great Carlisle Marney: "You will know the truth, and the truth will make you flinch before it sets you free."
Five years later, this administration's path to dealing with what happened on 01/06 is apparently to reward criminality at the expense of American taxpayers.
*This* week, Members of Congress appear to be saying "No." Perhaps, while they're home for the long Memorial Day weekend, we can encourage them in no uncertain terms to continue saying "No."
If you can't get their attention in person, you and your friends could fill their voicemail and other inboxes so they and their staffs have plenty to think about when they return to work in D.C. next week: https://www.congress.gov/members/find-your-member
