Panel probing US Capitol riot announces debut hearing

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The congressional select committee investigating the US Capitol insurrection announced Wednesday it will hold its first hearing later this month to hear from police who clashed with rioters and protected the building on January 6.

The public session will occur on July 27 and allow lawmakers to receive testimony first-hand from members of the US Capitol Police and Washington's city police force, committee chairman Bennie Thompson's office said.

The session kicks off what is expected to be an extensive series of public hearings investigating all aspects of the unrest.

On tha fateful day a mob of Donald Trump supporters stormed the Capitol following a rally in Washington by the then-president in which he stirred them up with a repetition of his falsehood that he was robbed of victory in the November election because of fraud.

Most of the committee work, however, is expected to occur behind closed doors.

People who are brain washed need to see the truth but that probably won't work since the bubble they are in will twist everything said.

Victims who will be testifying.

Total bullshit to go that route.
