The recent Frontline documentary Democracy on Trial reveals that the January 6th committee that their proceedings were crafted as a “miniseries” under the direction of James Goldston, former president of ABC News, raises serious questions about the integrity and purpose of the investigation. Their candid admission, acknowledging the utilization of manipulative tactics for television consumption, undermines the credibility of the committee and the seriousness of their mission.
By framing their efforts as a scripted production, the committee inadvertently exposes the underlying agenda: to captivate and manipulate the audience for dramatic effect. Such a revelation diminishes the authenticity of the proceedings and calls into question the sincerity of the committee’s pursuit of truth and justice.
The admission that the committee “knew how high the stakes were” underscores a calculated strategy to sensationalize the events of January 6th for maximum impact. However, the decision to prioritize theatrics over substance not only compromises the integrity of the investigation but also risks alienating the very audience they seek to inform and persuade.
Furthermore, the acknowledgment that the committee sought to “make people realize that this was important” highlights a fundamental misunderstanding of the public’s perception and awareness of the events surrounding January 6th. Attempting to manufacture significance through staged theatrics only serves to undermine the gravity of the situation and erode public trust in the investigative process.
The admission of the committee’s fabricated TV production underscores the dangers of prioritizing spectacle over substance in matters of national importance. Rather than engaging in genuine inquiry and dialogue, the committee’s approach perpetuates a culture of sensationalism and political theater that ultimately undermines the pursuit of truth and accountability.
In order to regain credibility and restore public trust, the January 6th committee must prioritize transparency, objectivity, and integrity in their investigative efforts. By eschewing theatricality in favor of genuine inquiry and collaboration, the committee can fulfill its mandate to uncover the truth and hold those responsible for the events of January 6th accountable.
Ultimately, the admission of the committee’s fabricated TV production serves as a sobering reminder of the dangers of political manipulation and sensationalism in the pursuit of justice. It is incumbent upon all stakeholders to uphold the principles of integrity and transparency in the quest for truth and accountability, lest the pursuit of justice be reduced to nothing more than a scripted spectacle for public consumption.
This was all theater and now with the release of more j6 tapes it has proven to be an inside job. Even more scandalous is the fact that those on this committee not only knew about it but participated in the manipulation and deletion of evidence. Americans are sitting in prison right now being treated worse than murders, rapists and even pedophiles because they were not allowed to use the videos in evidence to secure their freedoms. This production secured us the proof we need and once Trump is back in the White House the real indictments will begin.

ME: The so-called “committee,” in reality an extension or creature of Nancy Pelosi, NEVER had any credibility (see, CCM, Rep. Luria Named To Select Committee to Investigate January 6 Insurrection at U.S. Capitol July 4, 2021 http://www.capecharlesmirror.com/rep-luria-named-to-select-committee-to-investigate-january-6-insurrection-at-u-s-capitol/#comment-376883 ) nor was the Pelosi committee ever pursuing either truth or justice, period.

For the Pelosi committee to have had any credibility, which it never did, first of all congress itself would have to be deemed credible, and it is not, which is why its approval rating was 9% in November 2013 with a current reading of 15%.
In other words, congress, the whole lash-up, REPUBLICANS and DEMOCRATS alike, is WORTHLESS and we and the world would be better off if it was dissolved, and no longer existed.
Secondly, for the Pelosi committee to have had any credibility, Pelosi herself would have had to have credibility, and she didn’t and doesn’t, with Real Clear Politics giving her a 33.7% favorable versus 52.7% unfavorable.
And thirdly, for the Pelosi committee to have had any credibility, its individual members would have had to have some credibility of their own, which they didn’t, which is exactly why Pelosi picked them in the first place.
IT WAS ALL JUST A BUNCH OF POLITICAL BULL****, WHICH IS ALL WASHINGTON, D.C. HAS TO OFFER US!
