The president of the House of Representatives, Michael Johnson (R-Louisiana), announced the creation of a new committee to investigate “false narratives” on the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol by supporters of the president donald trump. Hours earlier, Johnson had downplayed a question about Trump’s pardon of the assailants saying that Republicans “were not looking back, but forward.” But the new committee will look back and work to rewrite the history of the assault on the Capitol. Republicans want deflect blame from Trump for telling his supporters to “fight like hell” and march on Congress before they broke into the building to interfere with the certification of Trump’s 2020 election loss. Johnson said in a news release that Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.), who led Republicans’ counterinvestigation into the original bipartisan Jan. 6 committee, would lead the new effort. “House Republicans are proud of our work so far to expose the false narratives spread by the politically motivated January 6 Select Committee during the 117th Congress, but there is still much work to do,” Johnson said. In his own statement, Loudermilk listed the causes of the January 6 attack, notably omitting the man whose name was on the flags that the mob carried. “What happened at the Capitol that day was the result of a series of intelligence, security and leadership failures at multiple levels within numerous entities,” Loudermilk said. Loudermilk’s panel will be a subcommittee of the House Judiciary Committee chaired by Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), who noted there are unanswered questions about live pipe bombs that were discovered in buildings near the Capitol on Jan. 6.
