Unbelievably Stupid: Republicans Plan To Filibuster The Creation Of A Jan. 6 Commission

The Senate is heading for its first filibuster fight of the year over creating a commission to probe the Jan. 6 attack, reviving frustration over the procedural roadblock.

The bill, which could come up as soon as this week, appears poised to fail absent a significant shift among Senate Republicans, as a growing number of GOP senators follow Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s (R-Ky.) decision to oppose the legislation.

One thing I disagree with:the Jan 6 Insurrection was more about Facism than race;they wanted Trump as President, whether he got more votes or not;they wanted him in power, Regardless of the will of the people

[roderickrichard]

All they want is power, power over what? They're not gonna have a country in a minute with all this stupidity.

One of the policeman who died from complications on Jan. 6, his Mother wants to meet with all the Republicans tomorrow.🤧

Can only imagine the verbal insanity that will wash over the Senate floor!

[arondajackson]

They don't want to show their hand...

That huge confederate flag being flown shook me to my core. I'll never get over that in my life time.

On behalf of the sensible people in the state of Missouri let it be known we didn't want Hawley or Blunt. I'm still waiting for a call from Josh Hawley's office about when he's having a town hall. Thankfully I'm not holding my breath.

Dr. Jones, "the dog ate my wit is matched only by your beauty.
I can't believe that this was once the Party of the Constitution.

[phylliswarner]

We need our Democratic officials to protect us from being excluded from our constitutional rights. And proceeding to take away our democracy and rights. We the people need you to stand up for us! Those fools are serious. And we need you to fight for us the people and protect our rights. Please take the gloves off and fight Democrats. That’s what we voted for. I’m hoping you are smarter than them and can stop them by any means necessary! Please help us we are so discouraged.

Thank You Mr. Roland Martin for all that you do.... I AM BECAUSE WE ARE!!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!! NOTHING BUT LOVE AND RESPECT ELDER!!! CINCINNATI OHIO 💯💯💯

[airforceveteran]

We don’t need another commission on this because there are already three separate investigations on this ongoing. What are they hoping to accomplish out of this anyway?

[whatareyoulookingat]

They should get a commission for the 1-6 riot just after they have a commission for the 500+ BLM riots that occurred in 2020. What say all of you l? (Crickets)

[Gsoup]

and we are talking about compromising with these clowns when they got almost everything they wanted in this commission bill and still wont vote for it

[topherkelly]

Why is JM upset, he has been running and doing backdoor deals with the repukkkkes, for so long he knows how they have been caring on...

[whitediamond]

I'm not surprised because they let their LEADER/TRUMP do their thinking lol. 😭😭😭😂😂😂

[KK-tisq]

It sounds like something Trump told them to do 🤣

[SamuelBarrPhotography]

This is really stupid, usually the Republicans are better strategists than that.
