WASHINGTON — House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., announced Wednesday the creation of a select subcommittee to investigate events before and after Jan. 6, 2021. “House Republicans are proud of our work so far in exposing the false narratives peddled by the politically motivated January 6 Select Committee during the 117th Congress, but there is still more work to be done,” Johnson said in a statement.
The subcommittee’s mission is to “uncover the full truth that is owed to the American people,” Johnson said. The speaker didn't make clear what false narratives he alleges were made by the original select committee.
Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., will chair the new subcommittee, which will fall under the jurisdiction of the House Judiciary Committee chaired by Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio.
Notably, Loudermilk had given a tour of the Capitol to people the day before the insurrection, which included a man who was caught on footage during the Jan. 6 riot, later released by the select committee that investigated the attack, making violent verbal threats against top Democratic lawmakers. The rioter who made the threats, Trevor Hallgren, “took pictures of hallways and staircases” during Loudermilk’s tour, according to the final report released by the former Jan. 6 select committee.
