Jan. 6 panel cost twice previous estimates, hiring TV producers to dramatize attack

(The Center Square) –

The U.S. House select committee that investigated the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol cost almost twice as much as previously reported, including spending taxpayer funds for TV news producers and documentary filmmakers to create videos dramatizing its case against President Donald Trump, an investigation by The Center Square found. 

The Washington Post reported that the panel had a projected budget of $9.3 million in September 2022. According to a review of U.S. House disbursements, the select committee spent $17.4 million.U.S. Rep. Troy Nehls, a Texas Republican who is on a new committee appointed by House Speaker Mike Johnson to investigate security failures on Jan. 6, said the original committee didn’t spend taxpayer money properly after The Center Square told him about the final costs of the panel’s investigation. 

“They wasted it, wasted it,” he said walking into his House office Wednesday before referring to two former GOP members of the panel. “That was a sham committee. (Liz) Cheney. (Adam) Kinzinger. It was a joke.”  more

  1. Always Remember,
    These turds jerk off on TV too and then call it a documentary for legal cover.

    They’re some sick fucks.
    Some want the videos released publicly.
    You know why???

    So they can jerk to it.

  2. On a similar note,
    The following just occured on CNN
    They are playing games and need to be Sued just like the BBC
    I have the proof
    They just played the same clip in two different stories
    What those stories were is not the topic
    It’s HOW they were played

    On Story #1 the clip was sourced as from Defense Dept

    On Story #2 the exact clip was sourced as War Dept

    The stories were of two different subject mtters and they slyly use the different titles to inject sympathy or aggression into the story.

    They are very evil people and very trained at their skillsets.

    Daily S#it Show’ers

  3. It’s looking like the skip bodies but have to pick one close to their previous features.

    Just saw Billie Jean King and she looks the Spitting Image (Ha Ha after a spitting segment) of that politician from a few years back they wheeled out in a wheelchair for a vote before she croaked.

  4. Just noticed,

    THEY are saying President Trump could just release the files tomorrow.

    However, what are THEY NOT saying if that was done?

    The very, and I do mean VERY, First Thing THEY would do???

    THEY would sue to Stop It.

    How much you want bet?

    The Lincoln Progs, The Eisen Stines, The Liars with Lawyers. . .

    Best to let IT OUT by Democratic Means.

    Make THEM do it.

  5. Did you think it funny that the only actual victim that would speak on CNN was a 26 YEAR OLD that wanted her Victorias Secret photographed.

    All the others are 2 family members with Books and a deal and a netflix style docu ad for I Was Once 16.

    Only thing missing Nigerian Scammers. .

    Oh wait a minute

  6. Do you think CNN could have pre-meditated a new Anthony Bourdain series right now?

    Or, is EVIL just attracted to it’s fellow grounders and appears naturally?

  7. ABC showed their colors at the 3 AM Live WWNOW report
    At 3AM
    Nigerian-Charlottan reporter sob storying newcomers in FRONT of a ria money transfer app ad in the window while hilighting the plight of illegal cookers and cleaners looking to clean up on heart strings.

    SHAME ABC
    SHAME

    You’re FAKE NEWS!!!

  8. Notice how Judges play fast and loose three-card-monty style to change the rules as needed to fit the needs of Jim Comey and his needs for any graspable excuse and hocus pocus.

    And just what about that BBC Doc GAP???
