On Tuesday, the fake hearings about the mostly-peaceful protest around and in the Capitol on January 6 started in the House, and they are even more disgusting than expected.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi asked Capitol Police officers who recited prepared lines to justify a nationwide unconstitutional crackdown against Trump’s supporters. Having not completely secured the Capitol on January 6th, they wished to put the focus away from their own incompetence on that day.
DC Police Officer Michael Fanone played up the histrionics, comparing what he saw that day to “Hell”:
Wonder how many times he practiced this pic.twitter.com/PmoLZ2TKOG

Officer Daniel Hodges said that he sees Trump supporters as terrorists during his choreographed testimony:
"I can see why someone would take issue with the title of terrorist, it's gained a lot of notoriety in our vocabulary in the past few decades … But I came prepared," Officer Hodges explains why he refers to the Jan. 6th rioters as 'terrorists.' pic.twitter.com/jkkN4g9EDE

Police Sgt. Aquilino Gonell gave Democrat talking points to demonize Trump for the Democrats in charge:
SGT. GONELL TO REPUBLICANS: “You’re defending the indefensible… it demoralizes not just the rank & file, but future recruits. They think: why would I risk my life for them when they don’t even care?” #January6thCommission pic.twitter.com/hzdOL7IEpO

Officer Harry Dunn gave his best Jussie Smollett impression, conjuring up a story about terrible MAGA racists that seems like something from a liberal cat lady’s Twitter profile:
Until January 6th, “no one had ever, ever called me ni**er while wearing the uniform of a Capitol Police Officer.”

Republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger (IL), one of the worst Trump critics in the whole Republican party, actually started crying during the hearing:

Democrat Congressman Adam Schiff (CA) tried to get some tears while delivering his testimony but could not make them:
Despite the lack of weapons recovered from the riot, one of the officers just testified that they were surely hiding arms in their bags; “if there had been a fire fight we surely would have lost”

Republican Congress Liz Cheney (WY), who has routinely supported war crimes globally, used the hearings to push the case for using the war on terror against Trump supporters with January 6 as a pathetic excuse:
"If those responsible are not held accountable, and if Congress does not act responsibly, this will remain a cancer on our constitutional republic, undermining the peaceful transfer of power at the heart of our democracy system." — Liz Cheney pic.twitter.com/D8LBl64yn3

We have reported on the Abu Ghraib-style punishment that is currently being inflicted on Jan. 6 protesters who are still in custody:
“Republican Congressmen Chip Roy (TX) and Thomas Massie (KY) have given a letter to AG Merrick Garland demanding answers about the mistreatment of the Capitol Hill protesters who were in the mostly-peaceful protest in Washington D.C.”
“On May 12, you said to the Appropriations Committee that, ‘if there is a hierarchy of stuff we prioritize, this should be what we prioritize because it is the most dangerous thing to our democracy,’” the letter says.
These phony hearings are being used like a communist show trial to create the underlying basis for all Trump supporters to be targeted like the Jan. 6 prisoners. Patriotic people must rise up to stop this Soviet-style takeover of America.
