    Wouldn’t the DOJ have already seen this footage. Why would Congress have access to security footage that the cops don’t have already have access to?

    This smells like some sort of play for time and or a way for GOP leaders to pretend to have their base’s backs.

      A lot of citizens coming through footage have been helpful in identifying the seditionists. We need to demand the raw footage and dox the rest of the criminals.
