It seems to me the start of the US House of Representatives investigation hearing into the January 6th Capitol attack and riot started today and I figure we should be noting it over here. It’s going to be an interesting show. Let’s see what the Democratic can do. Hope springs eternal don’t you know.
I thought the investigation was going to be about how the attack got to that point. What was information was missed or not take seriously, better awareness and preparations, maybe coming out of it with some procedural recommendations.
The first day was witness accounts of some of the atrocities. I kind of agree that that should be left up to DOJ and prosecutors.
Maybe they’ll get to the “How” and just wanted the “What” as a shock and awe Opening. ?
The Biden White House issued a statement Monday afternoon effectively disavowing any responsibility for the vast social misery its actions are helping to cause.
When someone assumes I'm reading the same things they are, it's usually the case that they are interpreting things differently than me. When they don't link to what they are talking about, usually, there's something they don't want me to see.
When someone responds with a link it doesnt mean that person has taken the time and effort to open and read it otherwise they would have been able pull bits out if it to refute the criticism.
At the end of the day the truth is that the eviction moratorium was allowed to expire because there is no significant support within the US ruling elite for social reform measures, let alone actions that would impinge on the profit interests of landlords, who include not just so-called “mom-and-pop” owners of a few properties, but giant financial concerns that control real estate empires.
