It would be one thing if there was "overwhelming support" for a Jan 6th commisssion

Poll: Americans split on Jan. 6 commission - 52-48

Voters are split on whether Congress should launch its own investigation into the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, according to a new Harvard CAPS/Harris poll released exclusively to The Hill.

The current divide among voters over whether a congressional investigation is needed to get to the bottom of the attack largely falls along party lines. Sixty-nine percent of Democrats say they support such a commission compared with 38 percent of Republicans.

Conversely, 62 percent of Republicans believe that the FBI and Justice Department investigations are sufficient, a view shared by only 31 percent of Democrats. Independent voters, meanwhile, were split 50-50 on the matter.

"The commission is simply seen as a partisan political football as the country is simply split on partisan lines in their view of the commission," said Mark Penn, director of the Harvard CAPS/Harris poll.

The reality is that this separate political commission to politically investigate and politically draw conclusions so that a political report can be written for political reasons is only supported by people of one political affiliation.

Of course the political people supporting this political investigation are not interested in the answers that they have been given in the criminal complaints. The professional investigators are actually tied to the law and can provide legal answers.  The political people supporting this political investigation want answers that satisfy them politically. 

Democrats and liberals want to demand that the 400 or so people out of 30,000 at the rally were a violent threat to the sanctity of our democracy and they want to demand without any evidence what-so-ever that this was some sort of coup. The problem is that the charges against the bulk of these 400 people are akin to misdemeanor trespassing charges and under normal legal circumstances the majority of these might not even stick. 

A real investigation by the FBI and others within law enforcement has already disproven much of the rhetoric.

• A cop was not murdered
• This was not an armed attack on the capital (only three gun charges were filed. None of them were in the building)
• There was no coordinated conspiracy to be found

The reality is that this was a rally that was 98.6% peaceful (as in 98.6% of those at the Trump rally were not involved trespassing in the Capital building or charged with any crimes).  It's not a "mostly peaceful" situation where the claim is made because some people where "mostly peaceful" but then were violent for a short period of time. This was a situation where 98.6% of those in attendance did nothing violent, and the 1.4% who were less than peaceful were largely only trespassing. 

The problem is that any actual real investigation (like the one that the FBI is engaged in) has no choice but to reach these conclusions. Try as they may to charge people with multiple misdemeanors and even charging them with picketing on Federal grounds (as if that is the crime we need prosecuted), they can still only charge the people they can charge and only charge them for what they did which was mostly walk into the Capital building (in many cases being let in by Capital police) and then walking back out when told to. 

The politically motivated "commission" that the political people want is something with the preconceived and predetermined belief that this was a violent coup somehow directed and incited by Donald Trump. Of course, if there was evidence of Donald Trump directing or inciting the violence, then the FBI would have already arrested him. 

But a politically motivated "commission" would not be bound by the law, facts, rights of the accused or anything else. They would be free to come to the foregone conclusions that the politically partisan people are convinced need to be expressed in some sort of "official capacity". Because as time moves on, they are losing the argument about how Jan 6th was the second coming of Sept 11th.
