J6 Committee Admits Trials Were An 'Election-Year Stunt' To Help Democrats Win

 Key members from the Select Committee on January 6th have admitted that the trials were an "Election-year stunt" to help Democrats win in 2024.

On Wednesday, Frontline PBS published a new documentary, "Democracy on Trial," chronicling the House committee's show trials.

The Jan. 6 Committee turned to former ABC News President James Goldston to produce their hearings that occurred just months before the 2022 midterms.

Months before the season premier, House Democrats conceded the committee's investigation was central to the party's plans to maintain the majority in the November midterms.

"Jan. 6 committee faces a thorny challenge," read a March 2022 headline from the Washington Post: "Persuading the public to care." The article continued, "They hope their recommendations to prevent another insurrection will be adopted, but also that their work will repel voters from Republicans who they say helped propel the attack."

The Soviet-style committee eventually became the legacy project for ousted Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, who served as vice chair of the panel.

In the book, Cheney reflected on the committee's hiring of Goldston to dramatize the hearings to boost Democrats' electoral prospects.
