Happy January 6th week, not to be confused with the last January 6th week that occurred earlier in the year. The committee that has tasked itself with “investigating” the much talked about unrest at the Capitol Building following the 2020 election held its first primetime hearing on Thursday night.
Did we learn anything new and noteworthy? The answer to that is not really. Instead, as expected, figures like Liz Cheney gave speeches about how terrible Donald Trump is while rehashing the same claims we’ve been hearing for a year and a half. I kept waiting for the ball to be moved forward, and it just kept sitting there.
One exchange was especially hilarious, and it involved the left’s favorite bogeymen, the “Proud Boys.”
If you can’t watch the clip, you are missing out. The Proud Boy member being questioned is asked by Bennie Thompson whether a larger crowd started to gather after their group walked down the steps toward the Peace Circle. His response? That they went for tacos, and the way he says it makes the clip.
Absolutely scintillating stuff. This is what we are here for. To learn that the Proud Boys went for tacos on January 6th. Case closed, insurrection proved. Throw these guys in jail. What a roaring success for the Democrats.
