Since Biden is president, why can’t he just appoint a commission to investigate Jan. 6?

Civic disengagement is what he and the rest of Democratic Party is comfortable with.

Because "it's all the same fvcking thing man"

.....if he were really FDR-like he wouldn’t hesitate.......

Because he is like the people who stormed the capital on 1/6/21; he just wears sunglasses, Brooks Brothers and eats ice cream so some don't see his violent grift.

Because America is rigged. The rich & powerful are above the law no matter how depraved, corrupt and even treasonous 😭

Well, DOJ is investigating it but, due to confidentiality laws, anything they obtain as part of an ongoing investigation cannot be made public until they prosecute someone.

Asking this as though you haven’t figured out @TheDemocrats aren’t at all here for #ThePeople. Stop giving them benefit of doubt & just #DemExit. Sheesh.
Replying to @marwilliamson
Because he doesn't want to, and because a presidential commission doesn't have the same legal powers as a special investigator. Mostly the first one though.

it all seems so easy and simple. Except when you have an entire party that's culpable for the downfall of democracy, arming their followers with false narratives that justice for all is Communism. And they believe every syllable.
