Georgia Republican Representative Barry Loudermilk revealed that House Speaker Mike Johnson assured him his inquiry into the January 6th Capitol attack would be “formalized as a new committee.” Republicans plan to continue investigations from the previous Congress, with Loudermilk’s work likely to be a focal point. One possibility is giving Johnson more control over the committee’s composition and operations. The committee aims to highlight failures at various levels during the Capitol attack, contrasting with the prior committee’s focus on Trump’s role. Johnson confirmed the new investigation will be “fully funded.” Additionally, Republicans have reissued subpoenas for Justice Department investigators in the Hunter Biden case. Meanwhile, Senator Adam Schiff urged President Biden not to set a precedent by pardoning individuals involved in the January 6th committee’s work.
