Rep. Kinzinger (R) Destroys RW talking points on Insurrection with his questions

In the Jan 6 hearing, he is destroying the BLM, Antifa bullshit out of hand, but more importantly, destroying the RW talking point that the Insurrection was "unarmed". He's giving each officer a chance to counter that point.

Will we see "Republicans in Disarray" headlines when the major media report on this?

There is no voice defending Republicans because of him. Not that there is a defense, but he could have had his people mucking things up and blurring the truth.
