Reps. Adam Kinzinger and Adam Schiff put on a pathetic show during the January 6th hearing.
Do you know why Hollywood and politicians get along so well? Because they’re all actors.
Schiff said: “Officer, thank you. I believe in this country and I believe in it because of people like you who understand what the flag means and what our Constitution means and risk their lives to defend it. I’d like to thank, as Amanda Gorman so eloquently said, that we’re not broken we’re just unfinished. Because if we’re no longer committed to a peaceful transfer of power after our elections, if our side doesn’t win, then God help us. If we deem elections illegitimate merely because they don’t go our way, rather than trying to do better the next time, then so help us. And if we’re so driven by bigotry and hate that we attack our fellow citizens as traitors if they were born in another country or they don’t look like us, God help us.”
From FOX 32 Chicago:
“I never expected today to be quite as emotional for me as it has been,” he said. “I think it’s important to tell you right now, though, you guys may like individually feel a little broken. You guys all talk about the effects you have to deal with… but you guys won. You guys held.””Democracies are not defined by our bad days. We’re defined by how we come back from bad days. How we take accountability for that. And for all the overheated rhetoric surrounding this committee, our mission is very simple: It’s to find the truth and its to ensure accountability,” Kinzinger added.Kinzinger added later, again getting choked up: “We may have our deep differences on other policy issues, but we are all Americans today. And we thank you for holding that line.”
