BREAKING: J6 Investigation To Move To Judiciary Committee

Liz Cheney was pardoned by former President Joe Biden for her crimes against America, but congressional investigators will continue to uncover the truth of what really happened at the 2020 election protest at the United States Capitol — including the presence of FBI informants in the crowd, the placement and discovery of pipe bombs at party offices, and various other FBI abuses.

A new select subcommittee led by Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., will be established under the Judiciary Committee to continue the work of the previous Congress, according to multiple sources familiar with the plan. Loudermilk led the previous effort as chair of the House Administration Oversight Subcommittee. That subcommittee released and published 40,000 hours of security footage from Jan. 6, uncovered interviews suppressed by Cheney’s committee that disputed her made-for-TV allegations, and referred Cheney for prosecution over her tampering with star witness Cassidy Hutchinson. Hutchinson, a low-level Trump aide, began dramatically changing her story after clandestine correspondence with the former Republican representative. Cheney, who was hand-selected by former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi to run the committee and its televised show trial, accepted a pardon for her alleged witness tampering and other crimes she may have committed.

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson announced the work would continue and be fully funded in a Jan. 2 social media post after President Biden awarded Liz Cheney the Presidential Citizens Medal for leading a controversial committee that shaped the left’s understanding of the Jan. 6 protest.

“The Jan 6 Select Committee manipulated AND destroyed evidence — created a fake, phony narrative all to try and hurt Trump. They even hired a TV producer from the legacy media in a desperate attempt to legitimize what Americans knew was a total hoax and complete waste of time,” Johnson said on X. “Be assured of this: House Republicans WILL continue our investigation into this corrupt committee and it will be FULLY FUNDED so it can continue next Congress.”

As noted earlier, Loudermilk and his staff uncovered transcribed interviews Cheney’s committee had suppressed because they were at odds with the narrative she was creating. For instance, Cheney suppressed evidence that President Donald Trump pushed for 10,000 National Guard troops to protect the nation’s capital, falsely claiming she had “no evidence” to support Trump officials’ claims the White House had communicated its desire for 10,000 National Guard troops.

In fact, an early transcribed interview conducted by the committee included precisely that evidence from a key source. The interview, which Cheney attended and personally participated in, was suppressed from public release. Deputy Chief of Staff Anthony Ornato’s first transcribed interview with the committee was conducted on Jan. 28, 2022. In it, he told Cheney and her investigators that he overheard White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows push Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser to request as many National Guard troops as she needed to protect the city. He also testified President Trump had suggested 10,000 troops would be needed to keep the peace at the public rallies and protests scheduled for Jan. 6, 2021.

In addition, Ornato described White House frustration with Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller’s slow deployment of assistance on the afternoon of Jan. 6, 2021. Not only did the committee not accurately characterize the interview, it suppressed the transcript from public review. On top of that, committee allies began publishing critical stories and even conspiracy theories about Ornato ahead of follow-up interviews with him. Ornato was a career Secret Service official who had been detailed to the security position in the White House.

Hutchinson’s televised testimony included claims Donald Trump had lunged at the steering wheel in order to commandeer a vehicle to the Capitol. The driver of the vehicle testified that Trump did not grab or reach for the steering wheel. “I didn’t see him, you know, lunge to try to get into the front seat at all,” the driver, a Secret Service agent, testified. Cheney hid the full testimony, Loudermilk revealed.

Details about the funding and composition of the select subcommittee are still being arranged. Authorizing language is being drafted and will be finalized within the next two weeks.
