Please hold these traitors accountable.

[NS-efix]

Please, use those remedies. I’m tired of so much corruption and impunity.

I know history will not be kind to these players, but I want the present not to be kind to them. I want them all to face legal justice and not be able to hide behind their wealth, their donors or their positions. I want them held accountable not only for their involvement in J6 but also for tearing apart families with their liar's cult. I know it's a lot to ask and it probably will never happen, but it would feel so good to hear them admit to their lies and manipulation.

[tomg]

We all know who was involved regardless of trying to cover up the truth. Your VOTE is more important that ever to save America from liars, conspiracies, and all those that cover up the truth.

[Arational]

Covering up a crime is a crime.
You got that Kevie and Jimbo

[jhaymuenster]

McCarthy is truly spineless. History will not be kind to him.

[marvwatkins]

It's too bad that the Committee doesn't have the power to arrest and jail those who refuse to testify, especially fellow politicians in both houses of Congress.

[ruthdepew]

Let's see, they can take away Gym Jordan's committee assignments. Then how many thousand dollars a day can Keven be fined for failure to appear before the committee?

[edteller]

They could expelled McCarthy, Jordan and other representatives from the House for failing to comply.

[jgroovy]

I searched Youtube for a GOOD documentary about January 6th, one that would detail not just a timeline, but who was doing what and specifically where at our Capitol. I highly recommend this one. It's chilling that it left me both disgusted and with a strong suspicion that it only depicted the tip of an iceberg:

"Day of Rage- How Trump Supporters Took the U.S. Capitol _ Visual Investigations"

[davidvasquez]

If no one is above the law, then why are these traitors being treated differently from a regular citizen of this country.

[GCJACK]

The best remedy possible: 18 U.S Code Subsection 2383. Throw McCarthy and Jordan in prison for upwards of ten years and heavily fine them on top of prison time and they'll find their wits and tongues.

[machiavelli]

Hold them in contempt of Congress and have the sergeant at arms arrest and jail them.

[guynorth]

The blatantly ignorant behavior of the Republican seditionist is truly mind-boggling.

[JO-mgxc]

Censure? That is BS! He needs to be expelled and jailed!!

[Opinionsrnotfacts]

Gitmo for a few months should change their minds.

[rustybucket]

No one in trump's circle is honest or courageous.

[bobdollar]

The Current and Future Republican Enemies Of Democracy identified by the 6 Jan., Committee deserve a date in Criminal Court with Lady Justice.

[jimroberts]

Use them don’t just talk about them. That’s the whole problem with this committee, you lack aggressive determination, times not on your side and Republicans know how to delay
