“Bipartisan” Hoax: The January 6 Committee’s Far-Left Agenda

As we saw with the Trump-Russia collusion hoax, the Left’s plan is to dominate news cycles all the way to the November elections with charges of “insurrection.” ...
William F. Jasper

As the first anniversary of the January 6 Capitol riot approached, the New York Times Editorial Board, in a January 1, 2022 opinion piece, declared, “Truly grappling with the threat ahead means taking full account of the terror of that day a year ago. Thanks largely to the dogged work of a bipartisan committee in the House of Representatives, this reckoning is underway.” 

The “bi-partisan” committee to which the Times’ editorial collective referred is, of course, the House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol (hereafter referred to as the J6 Committee). The Times says the J6 Committee is bipartisan and doing “dogged” work to bring a “full account of the terror.” And, if the Times says it, then it must be so, for (to paraphrase Marc An-tony’s mocking description of Brutus and his fellow assassins) “the Times says the J6 Committee is bipartisan and the Times is an honorable source.” Besides, the Times is not the only honorable, impartial source saying so; we have such additional honorable, impartial sources as CNN, CBS, NPR, MSNBC, Associated Press, Wikipedia, etc. In fact, it is difficult to find a news story that doesn’t include an obligatory mention that the J6 Committee is a “bipartisan” effort to get to the truth concerning what really happened on January 6, 2021 and who was responsible for it. 

The constant repetition of the J6 Committee’s supposedly bipartisan nature is part of the full-court media press to inoculate the J6 Committee against charges that it is using its “investigation” as a purely partisan weapon, which is precisely what it is doing. Contrary to the media narrative, the J6 Committee is a totally partisan sham committee set up by Speaker Nancy Pelosi to carry on the Democrats’ continuing war (with their media allies) against President Trump and his “basket of deplorables” — meaning not just the approximately 80 million Americans who voted for Trump, but every American whom the Biden-Pelosi-Schumer-DNC regime decides to designate (by foul means or fair) as a “white supremacist,” “violent extremist,” “insurrectionist,” “domestic extremist,” or other such pliable, political label.
