January 6 Committee Should Be Bipartisan

This is the third and final column in a three-column series on the House Select January 6 Committee, prompted by the Republican National Committee’s censure of Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, the House committee’s two GOP members, and Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell’s rebuke of the censure resolution. The first column in the series is here; the second is here.

Because of House speaker Nancy Pelosi’s partisan heavy-handedness, the January 6 Committee — presently constituted as a panel of implacable Trump enemies tasked to portray the Capitol riot as the Battle of Fort Sumter — has been dismissed by much of the country.
