    Default Panel hearing from four police officers about fateful day at Capitol

    Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (D-Miss.), the chairman of the select panel, vowed in his opening statement that he would not give “any fertile ground” to the “big lie” that Trump won the election, which Thompson said propelled the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.

    “Some people are trying to deny what happened,” Thompson said. “To whitewash it. To turn the insurrectionists into martyrs. But the whole world saw the reality of what happened on January 6th. … And all of it: for a vile, vile lie. Let’s be clear. The rioters who tried to rob us of our democracy were propelled here by a lie. As chairman of this committee, I will not give that lie any fertile ground.”

    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    “I could feel myself losing oxygen and recall thinking to myself, ‘This is how I’m going to die, trampled defending this entrance,’” Sergeant Gonell planned to tell the panel, according to his prepared remarks, which were obtained by The New York Times.

    Heartbreaking listening to Gonell testify. His shock at having to defend the Capitol against fellow citizens trying to assault or kill him.

    the one solid good thing out of all this will be to show you idiot trumpers that NO, the police are not going to side with you or with republicans........like you thought they would.

    the ironic side of this is watching you idiot dems who whined and wailed about police brutality and excessive force now praise those very same police as the heroes of your modern world...........

    it makes me laugh at all of you
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    watching most of you delude yourselves in to believing whatever you need to is almost hilarious

    How can MTG and the others not be affected by these brave men? Despicable. These men will carry this weight for a long time.
