PUBLIC NOT BUYING PELOSI’S KANGAROO COURT: New survey taken the day after last week’s first hearing of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s hand-picked “investigators” of the January 6 Capitol riot is full of bad news for the rump panel, according to Issues & Insights.

Asked “how likely is it that the Jan. 6 commission will make a genuine effort to uncover the truth,” only 22 percent of those interviewed said they believe it is “very likely” to do so. Almost as many, 18 percent, said “not likely at all.”

“But what is surprising is how little faith independents have in the commission. Only 36% of them think it’s likely it will make a genuine effort to uncover the truth, while 42% say it isn’t likely to do so. Among Republicans, 24% say it’s likely and 61% unlikely,” the I&I crew observes.
