Former President Donald Trump criticized the January 6 co*mittee as another partisan sham. In a statement Thursday, he said the Democrat-controlled panel is a “unselect co*mittee of political thugs.” Trump stressed, the co*mittee includes the same group of people who were pushing the false Russia collusion hoax and then denied the obvious evidence of fraud in the 2020 elections.


The 45th President made his co*ments just ahead of the January 6 show trial. Trump also said the Democrat co*mittee knows he was asking for 20,000 National Guard or troops to be deployed at the US Capitol ahead of the protest, but House Speaker Nancy Pelosi turned down the offer.


Meanwhile, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) echoed the sentiments while suggesting Democrats are playing politics. During a press conference Thursday, the California lawmaker affirmed Republicans have repeatedly denounced the violence at the US Capitol and Democrats are ignoring the crises that are effecting the American people.


The House minority leader was also joined by Congress members Jim Banks (R-Ind.), Steve Scalise (R-La.) and Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) who argue the panel is an attack on the GOP and President Trump. They asserted that Democrats refuse to take responsibility for the crises their policies have created and the co*mittee’s focus is not to keep the US Capitol safe.


House Minority Whip Scalise said Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) doesn’t want the truth to co*e out. He pointed out how she failed to increase security despite receiving intelligence reports.




As House Republicans continue their own investigations into the co*mittee, Rep. Stefanik claimed the panel will not prevent another January 6 from happening and asserted its sole purpose is to punish political opponents.
