The Dangerous Omission in the Jan. 6 Committee’s Report Summary

The government was caught unawares on Jan. 6—with catastrophic effects. But you wouldn’t know that from reading the committee’s executive summary.

Very disappointed the failures of law enforcement are being swept under the rug. This is a dereliction of the Committee's duty to reveal the truth. Shame on them. I blame #LizCheney. She's a snake in sheep's clothing.

@Snarkycounsel @lawfare @qjurecic @benjaminwittes Liz Cheney is a patriot who should be commended for trying to uphold her oath to the Constitution.

@lawfare @qjurecic @benjaminwittes@thecooltable.

Would it be fair to say that, since the first branch has now formally accused (former members of) the second branch of federal crimes to the public, that what is now on trial is the American justice system?
