House GOP Forms Subcommittee to Investigate January 6 Events

News summary

House Speaker Mike Johnson announced the formation of a new select subcommittee to investigate the events surrounding January 6, 2021, led by Rep. Barry Loudermilk. This move follows the House Republicans' previous efforts to challenge the narratives presented by the now-defunct Democrat-led January 6 Select Committee. Johnson emphasized the need to uncover the 'full truth' owed to the American people, asserting that there is still more work to be done. The subcommittee will operate under the House Judiciary Committee, chaired by Rep. Jim Jordan, and will have the authority to scrutinize actions by FBI officials. Loudermilk, who has previously cleared his name of allegations regarding reconnaissance tours before the attack, stated that the investigation aims to address intelligence and security failures that contributed to the Capitol breach. The composition of the subcommittee and its specific investigative goals will be announced soon, amid questions about potential Democratic participation.
