Concern for the Jan.6 Committee.

Not sure anyone has expressed concern for those loyal public servants who have had to sit in a room for hours and listen to Kellyanne, Stephen Miller and other competitive liars in order to do their job.

I admire the hell out of them. Have not seen that any one of them ran from the room screaming, thrown something or just sat there and screamed.

1. I think those on the J6 committee may have enjoyed having those two in the hot seat

Dem attorneys are certainly up to calling them on their hateful bs. I understand what you’re saying though. All of the Dems must have also felt a powerful need for a long, hot shower after testimony.

2. Along with all of the rest of the civil service and other people - doing their jobs.

Just doing their jobs. And doing them very well!

And having to listen to the nattering nabobs (HT to sleaze-ball Agnew and speech-writer Wm. Safire) from the RW asylum lambasting everything that the governments do - until these types get to play-run government. That means enriching themselves and cronies until there is nothing left for the real people.

Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene had $183,504 in PPP loans forgiven.

Congressman Vern Buchanan had over $2.3 million in PPP loans forgiven.

Congressman Markwayne Mullin had over $1.4 million in PPP loans forgiven.

3. I would not have had the patience demonstrated by all members of the J6 Committee.

And I’d probably break any number of House and Senate rules if I had to listen to the likes of Jim Jordan and Marjorie Greene scream their deranged ideas. I can’t stand Ted Cruz’s voice, never mind the drivel he spouts.
