See, e.g., https://www.foxnews.com/politics/pelosi-capitol-security-jan-6-committee-jim-banks

When I worked on the Hill, and in the Capitol in particular, the Capitol Police were a joke.  They were nice, incompetent hacks who have been appointed to the job by the leadership, principally in the House.  You wouldn't trust them to guard your dog or cat.

Fast forward to the post-9/11 era, and obviously changes have been made.  To say that the Speaker of the House, in this case Nancy Pelosi, does not make the decisions is perhaps naive.

Both political parties will pass the buck and deny responsibility, but Pelosi has "engineered" this totally-bogus "January 6 committee" to serve her needs, inter alia, by excluding Jim Jordan and others who might provide political balance to the committee.

It's a sham and nothing more, designed to "rescue" the Democrats from the approaching doom that they may face in November's elections, and shift the narrative away from the debacle that is the BIden-Harris presidency.  After all, many are saying already that Brain Dead Joe should not run for reelection.

And yes, I began as a Democrat, but became an Independent when I left the Senate.  I had seen too much to support either party.

First, thank you for your comments, Dick.

Second, I use Facebook but seldom spend time reading the comments of others, unless they are in response to my postings.

Third, I agree that Covid has pitted Americans against each other.  The beliefs are all over the boards.

Fourth, China's population is enormous. Many times ours.  Indeed, Mao had no problems "sacrificing" approximately 30-40 million during his "Great Leap Forward" of the last century.  Today, more than a million ethnic minorities, including the Uyghurs, are in "reeducation"/concentration camps.  Human lives mean little to the country's rulers, which is true of Putin too.

Lastly, time will tell whether your last sentence is correct or not.  If you are, it may temper our enemies' actions somewhat.
