Washington, Jun 24 (EFE / EPA) .- (Camera: Will Oliver) The president of the House of Representatives, democrat Nancy Pelosi, announced this Thursday the creation of a select committee to investigate the assault on the Capitol Hill on January 6 by a mob of supporters of former President Donald Trump, after Republican opposition to the formation of an independent commission. FOOTAGE AND SOUNDBITES BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, DEMOCRAT NANCY PELOSI. "The terrible desecration of the Capitol resulted in multiple deaths and physical damage to more than 140 members of the police force, and terror and trauma among staff, workers and congressmen. That trauma is something that you can never forget or forgive." "It is imperative that we seek the truth of what happened. To do so, we believe that a bipartite commission is the best way to proceed in the spirit of patriotism and bipartisanship, establishing a 9/11-style commission. Unfortunately, despite express support Out of 7 Republican senators, Mitch McConnell has asked Republican senators to do him a personal favor and vote against the commission. Cowardly, Republican senators have done him a personal favor instead of honoring his patriotic duty. " "However, this morning, with great solemnity and sadness, I announce that the House will establish a select committee on the insurrection of January 6."
