So About This Jan 6 Commission

Seems a bit like a waste. To me, they will study, spend lots of money, and write a many page report, with the summary like below:
"Although it was not organized by any one group, it was found that all the people were united by a common belief that the election was not legal.
Although not directly asked to, the words of President Trump must take some responsibility as they were taken as encouragement by the crowd to go inside the US Capital.
The "mob mentality" caused the crowd to do things they would not have done as individuals, and resulted in a direct attack on the US integrity and democracy."
The End

So, what will the senate do?
Dunno.
The Dems are clinging to this politically, hoping their allies in the media will cover for them enough to stave off a bloodbath in 2022. But...Latest polls show Trump leading Harris, head-to-head. (How's that, for waaay too early?)
If this doesn't take Trump out of the picture, they do run the risk of making a martyr out of him. Even with drugs, I can't see Biden making 2024. If the economy gets some significant inflation, things could be very interesting in '24, from the Oval Office to the make-up of Congress.
