What happens with Jan 6 investigation after Dec.31?

[DeeDeeNY]

The J6 Committee ends with the new Congress, but what about all its investigative work? If the Dems lose the House as predicted, does it stop?

1. The current committee will be disbanded. The info needs to be passed to the DOJ.

The Senate could also start up a committee if Democrats retain control. Otherwise, it is up to the new speaker of the house to start a committee - and we know what that would look like.

4. There was never a need for a criminal referral to DOJ

The J6 committee members made it very clear that DOJ could have - and should have - been pursuing everything separately all along.

12. I know. The info they collect needs to go to the DOJ - if it hasn't already.

2. They already have more than enough for the DOJ to indict the traitors.

5. They don't

They have enough to make a public statement and issue a written report for the record, but neither is enough for DOJ to indict. Their evidence is a big effing deal regardless, but it doesn't necessarily meet the legal standards required for an indictment.

7. To start with he stole top secret documents. That's evident.

11. Evident as in evidence?

That's exactly what I was saying. Evidence in itself is just part of an indictment. It is not enough to indict. There is a well defined process that needs to be followed if DOJ doesn't want this evidence thrown out by a judge, or successfully challenged by the defense, or rejected by a jury. And all evidence suggests that DOJ is relentlessly and methodically following this process.

On edit: the J6 Committee doesn't have to follow this process.

3. It's the end of it

Flushed down the toilet bowl most likely.

6. I expect that if the christofascists take the House there will be several new committees...

to investigate anything and everything related to the first two years of the Biden administration.

Oh, and they will try to impeach at least three or four times. Got to retaliate for the Pig of course.

8. And, and, Benghazi!

10. They will form a committee to investigate the "rights" of the insurrectionists

Count on it....They will claim their rights are violated...

[LeftInTX]

9. They will now attack the J6 investigation like they did the Mueller investigation

They will claim the insurrectionists, such as the Oath Keeper's rights were violated

They will form their own committee and negate all the work.
