Representative Jim Banks Says That Nancy Pelosi Blocked Him & Jim Jordan From Investigating January 6th & Blocked Any Questions From Being Asked

Banks Says “Nancy Pelosi doesn't want Americans to find out what really happened on January 6th”

“That's why the committee is refusing to answer basic questions about January 6th. In fact, blocking these questions from even being asked before the sham investigation even started, speaker Pelosi blocked me and Jim Jordan from investigating January 6th. She discredited the sham committee before it even started. So you have to ask the question, why would she do that?

Because it isn't only a partisan witch hunt. It's an attempt that we now know based on reports over the weekend, that the committee is being used to advance the Radical Democrat agenda, that it includes abolishing the electoral college, but it's also a coverup.

Speaker Pelosi blocked us because she's afraid of what a real investigation would uncover. She doesn't want Americans to find out what really happened on January 6th and leading up to it, and she doesn't want anyone asking questions about her role and her responsibilities in securing the United States Capitol.

That's why the committee is refusing to answer basic questions about January 6th. In fact, blocking these questions from even being asked questions that must be answered to keep the capitol safe and to prevent another, uh, uh, riot or incident like January 6th from ever happening again in the future. What questions am I talking about? First of all, Capitol police officers. We now know we’re half staffed on January 6th because of how is that?

Two, why were our Capitol police officers under equipped? Why were some officers forced to face down a riot with either expired helmets or no helmets at all? Three, why was the United States Capitol Police never trained to deal with riots after all of the riots that were going on in the summer of 2024? Did Speaker Pelosi communicate with the House Sergeant at arms on January 6th or in the days leading up to the riot five?

Was Speaker Pelosi involved in the decision to delay the National Guard assistance on January 6th? Six? Why didn't the Capitol Police Intelligence Unit raise the alarm about potential violence when they had evidence and intelligence for weeks leading up to January 6th that something violent could happen at the Capitol that day? Seven. Why did the FBI deploy Commandos to Quantico on January 3rd with shoot to authority, but fail to send the US Capitol Police a single assessment or intelligence bulletin?
Eight. Why did the House Sergeant in arms refuse to cooperate with the Senate Homeland Securities bipartisan January 6th investigation? Those are just some of the questions

That Jim Jordan and I were prepared to ask if we participated, if we were able to participate in this investigation and, and, and in these hearings. But Nancy Pelosi blocked us from the committee because she knows that those questions leave a trail of bread breadcrumbs right back to the speaker's office today. In my hometown in Columbia City, my constituents are paying $5 and 25 cents for a gallon of gas. There hasn't been a single committee hearing on Capitol Hill about rising gas prices, let alone one in prime time for all of the American people to see.

But the American people are sick and tired of what they're getting out of this Pelosi and Democrat led led Congress. They're, they're tired of the theatrics. They want their, their con, their, their congressmen and women to focus on the issues that matter most to them. But instead, this is what we're left up to. It's a shame and, uh, and, uh, I, I believe that it will backfire big time on these Democrats, uh, as we near, uh, the election.”
