Maybe they never even questioned their own narrative,' Lee wrote on social media of former GOP Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger
Utah Republican Sen. Mike Lee is calling for an investigation into the now-defunct House January 6 committee, accusing former and current lawmakers who served on the committee of "deliberately" hiding some of the footage from the Capitol riots.
Lee's comments came after House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., began releasing more than 40,000 hours of footage taken at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, when protesters angry about the 2020 election results entered the halls of Congress.
Highlighting the release of the footage in a series of posts to X, formerly known as Twitter, Lee called into question the character of former Republican representatives Liz Cheney of Wyoming and Adam Kinzinger of Illinois.
"Why didn’t Liz Cheney and Adam Kizinger ever refer to any of these tapes? Maybe they never looked for them. Maybe they never even questioned their own narrative. Maybe they were just too busy selectively leaking the text messages of Republicans they wanted to defeat," Lee wrote in a post to the platform, which included a video that purportedly showed Capitol police officers facilitating the passage of protesters through the building that day.

“America is little different than Stalinist Russia.”
It’s SO BAD now that even Putin refers to our Jan. 6th prisoners when people give him flack about ‘human rights’...and he does have a point.
Maliciously #ing with an innocent person’s life is a stupid thing to do.
Too late as usual, Mike. The bogus committee has already set in motion legal action that is trying to deny Trump ballot access in certain D states claiming a violation of the 14th amendment.
Does he really mean it or is he showing off?
we all knew they were there Mike. What took you so long?
Senators do not have the privilege of investigating the actions of the House, and vice-versa.
Sure does.
Much of this chicanery is in violation of Constitutional law. And although some say the Constitution is no longer relevant, it’s still the Law of the Land through which the citizens can legally conduct themselves.
The GOP Senate pretends to be outraged.
We all knew what happened.
I lost respect for Lee quite some time ago, so the chance for sincerity is inevitably meaningless to me.
Republicans aren't doing a damn thing (except for a very few in the House it seems).
That is on you.
Somebody’s gotta go to jail.
Adam and the Cheney skank would be a gods first start
You mean the fake libtard committee was a fraud?
I think Lee and Johnson are going to find out that the J6 Committee was told that all that video revealed national security secrets (architectural defenses); hoodwinked by Wray.
I don’t think the J6 Committee saw the tapes that have been released.
Or if not, only the Dem leadership did.
Uhhh yeah????? I’ve been saying since the Republicans took over that they needed their own Jan 6 committee featuring ZERO Democrats which would do nothing but investigate Democrats, the Capital Police, the FIB, the DC Prisons, DC Judges, etc etc etc.
Willingly hoodwinked! I doubt Wray did much if any persuading.
BTTT
Cheney, Cry Baby, the Democrat Party, DOJ and FBI have much to answer for.
