Dear Smerel,
As I read more of your posts from other threads some from years ago, I see what troubles you.
It does not matter to me what specific congressmen seek to gain personally from various proceedings. As long as Congress functions, it’s okay that there is power struggles and avarice. The point of these hearings is to get a better understanding of the threats to our country.
The 16 election hearings, were about tied threat of Russian meddling.
These hearings are about all the different characters and what they intended to achieve on Jan 6.
These are matters of national importance. Trump is not the main target because there isn’t any real target. The goal is to assess the situation honestly and react accordingly.
The Ukraine hearings was all about Trump. The ultimate goal was to indict and then impeach. Still, the hearings were necessary to first assess all the information they had.
