DOJ is working as hard as the Jan. 6 committee, maybe harder, and could use more help from them

...they are moving actual cases through courts, and have already amassed evidence outside of these select communications which have surfaced in the press.

That should be obvious, but isn't evident because of DOJ rules governing disclosures of ongoing investigations and prosecutions, something which actually protects those efforts from being overturned, and protects witnesses from recriminations and threats to their safety.

Just because you haven't heard of everything they're engaged in, doesn't mean what you see is the totality of their efforts. These reports show that the DOJ is well ahead in their efforts, and is seeking additional witness testimony, depositions and communications which will speed up their process.

Trying to fathom the disconnect between expecting them to be further along, and seeing actual evidence they can use in the grand juries they've already set up and are issuing subpoenas out of, and challenging defendants in actual courts, being withheld from them.

One body of government is charged with informing, the other is engaged in actual prosecutions, inarguably a much harder task which is going to take much longer to move cases through courts with all of the challenges, and with the DOJ in the position of watching the committee present evidence they may be seeing for the first time.
