Let’s get one thing straight: The Jan. 6 show trials, which premiered in primetime on Thursday, are nothing but a Democrat political advertisement. They in no way unveil any underlying truths connecting Donald Trump to an underground right-wing conspiracy to overthrow the government based on the 2020 election results.
In fact, the entire scenario reads more like a Deep State coup orchestrated by the FBI in order to prevent another Donald Trump administration from taking over Washington D.C. once again.
The entire Jan. 6 investigation was doomed from the start; only Nancy Pelosi-approved Republicans were allowed on the House Select Committee, and they just so happened to be never-Trump RINOs.
The entire purpose of the committee is not to present well-rounded and credible evidence of election fraud or breakdowns in leadership. The entire purpose is to rouse severe emotion and secure a legal case against Donald Trump.
However, one Republican who was rejected from Pelosi’s House Select Committee presented findings from his own counter-investigation of the Jan. 6 protests. What he discovered is quite alarming.
Rep. Jim Banks – a top Trump congressional ally – disclosed the results of his counter-investigation before the primetime show trials were to premiere.
He discovered a massive “systematic breakdown of security and leadership” in the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. He charged Nancy Pelosi with failing to heed the advice of security experts in both the Capitol Police and National Guard.

Banks exposed the Committee for their anti-Trump bias, questioning why their entire purpose is to pin Trump with all the blame when it’s obvious that isn’t the case. According to Rep. Banks, the House Select Committee has made it a priority to “prevent Donald Trump’s name from ever being on the ballot again.”

The congressman said he and a handful of other Trump allies, including Reps. Jim Banks and Elise Stefanik, have conducted a counter investigation into Jan. 6 — and Pelosi is desperate to conceal the findings.
During that effort, Banks said they found “serious issues” related to security as well as intelligence gathering and dissemination.
The head of the U.S. Capitol Police union told the GOP investigators the force was not prepared for that day, Banks said. They were “half-staffed” and equipped with “faulty or outdated” gear. Some of the officers “didn’t even have riot shields or helmets on,” according to Rep. Banks.

Trump has castigated the inquiry as a political witch hunt, and his allies are ready to argue he had instructed his supporters to march “peacefully”.
