The House select committee on the Jan. 6 insurrection is a potent political weapon. Democrats better not waste it.

Article link and the subhead line. You can stop reading there because Salon just said the quiet part out loud: Pelosi’s 1/6 ‘investigation’ is a pure political operation intended to smear Trump supporters and destroy Donald Trump.
No surprise to anyone who has been paying attention to Pelosi and the democrats over the last five years.
I’ll wager Pelosi and the democrats aren’t happy with that headline or Salon for putting it up.
What. This title?
"Democrats have a massive opportunity with Capitol riot committee: Shove it down the GOP's throat"
I would not have worded it that way. It does carry a stigma of partisanship and revenge when it's characterized that way. But that's just inflammatory words. It's an attention-getting title. Commercial for-profit news media has to do that to get attention, traffic and market share. We need to read further to get the story.
What's in a title? Traditional wisdom says you can't always judge a book by it's cover.
But that's what you are trying to do here. You don't want anybody to read the article, eh? Just foolishly draw conclusions based on only the title?
The devil is in the details.
Paul Harvey used to say: "And now you know the rest of the story."
Well, if you don't read the article, you don't know the rest of the story.
Blissful ignorance works for Trump supporters but they are too few to give him a second term.
Biden won. People are listening to Democrats. We want the rest of the story, and we want to clarify what happened on Jan 6th. Trump supporters want to erase that day from our history. The rest of the country is interested in the results of the Select Committee.
The fact that this works in political favor of Democrats is completely Trump's own doing, just as Jan 6th was. He even tweeted for all those violent insurrectionists to come - that is before his tweeting privileges got rightfully terminated. He caused the insurrection. That's why his cult is trying so hard to ignore the truth.
