Possible Bad Times Ahead

For John, BLUF:  The Democratic Party dominated January 6th (J6) hearings are becoming (have become) a threat to our First Amendment rights.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

RNC Fights Back Against Partisan J6 Committee, Files Lawsuit

From Pajama News, by Mr Matt Margolis, 10 March 2022, 9:19 AM ET.

Here is the lede plus two:

After many months of the January 6 committee’s partisan overreach, on Wednesday, the Republican National Committee filed a lawsuit against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the January 6 committee over their efforts to subpoena RNC databases.

“The RNC has sued to stop the January 6th Committee from unlawfully seizing confidential information about the internal activities of the Republican Party and millions of its supporters which is completely unrelated to the attack on the Capitol,” RNC chief counsel Justin Riemer said in a statement.

“The select panel has subpoenaed Salesforce.com for the data it maintains for the RNC.  Those digital communications enable political parties and other nonprofit organizations to operate and allow for organizations to interact with millions of online users,” reports the Washington Times.”

If the Rpublican Party takes control of the House of Representatived in January 2023 there could be a reserval of fortunes regarding the House J6 Commission.

And it could be worse.  It seems Veritas ran a honey trap against a reporter regarding the 6 January 2021 Capitol Hill Riots.

New York Times reporter Matthew Rosenberg, the Pulitzer-prize winning National Security correspondent for one of the nation’s largest newspapers, has admitted on an undercover video what most of us have long known: the lefty news media is blowing the events of Jan. 6, 2021, out of proportion.

. . .

Rosenberg also states that there were a “ton of FBI informants” in the Capitol [that day].

I am hoping the FBI was not involved in the 6 January activities.  However, I would not be shocked to find out it was so.

We need a way to accept that the Capitol Hill riots happened, they were, early on, encouraged by the reactions of the Capitol Police and that the net impact was near zero.  In the mean time we are eating away at our Rights and our Democratic Institutions.  That is not good.
