Reps. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) and Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) are seen during a House Jan. 6 committee hearing on Thursday, July 21, 2022 to focus on former President Trump’s actions during the insurrection.
Monday’s business meeting will also mark a swan song of sorts for Reps. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), who are departing Congress at the end of this month after breaking from the Republican Party and denouncing Trump.
Cheney, one of two Republicans serving on the panel, is leaving the House after losing reelection over the summer, in part because of her participation on the Jan. 6 committee.
She has emerged as an outspoken critic of Trump, using her prominent position as vice chair of the committee to lay out the case that the former president was responsible for what happened at the Capitol on Jan. 6.
It is a main reason why she lost reelection last year to Wyoming lawyer Harriet Hageman, who Trump handpicked to challenge Cheney after she voted for his impeachment and joined the Jan. 6 committee.
Kinzinger has also become a top GOP critic of Trump, though he opted out of running for reelection this year.
Despite their departures, the GOP duo has continued in their crusades against Trump, criticizing him for recent comments he made regarding the Constitution and for dining with noted white supremacist Nick Fuentes.

Trump organized the insurrection. It was down the street from the capitol at the exact same time the joint congress was certifying the electoral votes. It was a ceremonial vote. The votes were done. Trump figured if he could stop that, he could delay losing the presidency. His intent was to stay in power. His "rally" (the gathering of troops) was fired up online before the insurrection. Once there, they were treated to speaker after speaker rousing action and violence. The destruction and violence are among Trump's charges. He is responsible for the whole mess.

It is on! I guess we're supposed to call this a "meeting" not a "hearing".
Lets stop with the boring speeches and get to the good stuff!
