‘The J6 committee was a sham. I knew it then. Everyone knows it now. Let’s investigate the investigators,’ wrote Rep. Troy Nehls (R-Texas).
Several House Republicans called for establishing a new House investigation of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol breach after new security footage was released.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) wrote that the release of the new tapes is “not enough” and that there needs to be a probe for the “lies, deceit, and lives ruined.”
The lawmaker then called on House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) to create a new select committee. She criticized the previous Congress’s Jan. 6 panel that was chaired by Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) and former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.).
“Every member of the Jan. 6th committee” as well as former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), the Capitol Police, District of Columbia Police, and Jan. 6 witnesses “who lied” should all be subpoenaed, Mrs. Greene added on X.
I’m calling on @SpeakerJohnson to create a January 6th Select Committee.

Releasing the tapes is not enough!
There needs to be investigations and ACCOUNTABILITY for ALL of the lies, deceit, and lives ruined.
Every member of the Jan 6th committee, Nancy Pelosi, FBI, DOJ, DC…
“Criminal referrals must be written and prosecutions MUST happen under a Trump DOJ,” she wrote over the past weekend. “I’ve said it all along, MAGA did not do this.”
This past week, Mr. Johnson publicly stated that he wanted to release all 44,000 hours of Jan. 6 footage to the public. On Nov. 17, Johnson released 90 hours of footage to the House Administration Committee’s website. About 100 hours of footage have been released so far via that website.
“The goal of our investigation has been to provide the American people with transparency on what happened at the Capitol on January 6, 2021, and this includes all official video from that day,” Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) said in a news release.
“We will continue loading video footage as we conduct our investigation and continue to review footage. As I’ve said all along—the American people deserve transparency, accountability, and real answers supported by facts instead of a predetermined political narrative.”
Mr. Johnson said that his decision will give millions of Americans, Jan. 6 defendants, public organizations, and media outlets the ability to see “what happened that day” instead of having to rely on a “small group of government officials.”
