What can we expect from a “J13” committee? (#77)

[“Rep. Cory Mills (r-fl) says the assassination attempt and murder during Trump rally, due to ‘intentional failures’; ‘will put together j-13 committee to get to the truth’ (#74).”]

a J13 committee? ...well, whatever, but if it ends up like the J6 committee, then yawwwwn. Lots of Debate Club fact-checker kinds of victories but the bottom line is that all those people are still in the dungeon and they’re still hunting down more who were there.

It seems to me that the supreme court ruling just sends their cases back to the same corrupt lower courts that sentenced them in the first place. The killers are still honorable, “heroic” law enforcement, according to The Narrative, and the dead are still dead and despised: ASHLI: The Untold Story of the Women of January 6 by Jack Cashill.

The fbi still gets its plush new hq building and full funding. The DC courts and the capitol police didn’t get budget-whacked or restructured. But MTG had a good fundraising haul on the J6 issue, with frequent social media posts and jail visits, and then went silent, as she moved on to different shiny objects.

Because the J-6 Committee Second Edition did such a great job undoing the damage caused by the Liz Cheney First Edition. It was a debating contest, establishing facts that never made it into The Narrative... but didn’t get anybody out of the dungeon, didn’t effect any changes in the “dirty rotten stinking corrupt toilet” of DC justice (Mark Steyn’s formulation), didn’t effect any changes in doj/fbi//capitol police, didn’t manage to hold anyone “accountable” (MTG’s social media catchphrase), didn’t cut anybody’s budget or get anybody fired, and apparently won’t even try to block the change of venue for Ashli Babbitt’s family’s lawsuit – to DC courts with those genius DC juries, of course.

Sure, let’s all get excited and put all our hopes into the republicans assembling another Committee to Hold Hearings and fix all our problems in the next 110 or so days, minus breaks for the september spending “crisis” and going home to campaign for re-election.

We’ll call it the Worn Commission, as in Worn-Out.
