Republicans Move to Formalize New January 6 Committee Under Speaker Mike Johnso

House Speaker Mike Johnson has pledged to formalize Representative Barry Loudermilk’s January 6 inquiry into a new select committee, aligning with Republican efforts to revisit past investigations. Loudermilk, a critic of the previous bipartisan probe, argues it focused too much on Trump while ignoring other security failures. The new committee aims to challenge prior findings and reshape the narrative.

Beyond January 6, Republicans are also reviving investigations into the Biden administration, including Hunter Biden and classified documents. These efforts highlight ongoing partisan tensions, with both sides preparing for intensified political battles ahead.
