Pelosi on Tuesday laid out possible next steps after last week's Senate vote, in which Senate Republicans blocked legislation to create an independent, bipartisan panel to investigate the siege by former President Donald Trump's supporters. She proposed four options for an investigation of the attack, according to a person on the private Democratic caucus call who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal conversations.
But the speaker said she believed a commission appointed by Biden -- an idea pitched by some in her caucus after Friday's Senate vote -- was "not a workable idea in this circumstance" because Congress would still need to approve money and subpoena authority for the panel. "In light of the GOP's cowardly filibuster of a bipartisan January 6th commission, I urge President Biden to form and appoint a Presidential Commission to fully investigate the insurrection at the United States Capitol, to identify the individuals and organizations who plotted or were involved in those violent acts, and to make recommendations to prevent such an attack from ever recurring," said Virginia Rep. Gerry Connolly in a statement over the weekend.
It takes them so long to do anything! I'd be very surprised if we see anything in 2021.
Dither, dither and done.
Haha. Shes changed her tune.
