Republicans try to whitewash Jan 6 legacy as snow-covered D.C. airs grievances

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : And with Donald Trump now set to return to the White House in exactly two weeks, the day has taken on a kind of Festivus-esque vibe as liberals and even some members of the press participate in an unofficial Airing of Grievances.
50% : Republicans were hard at work, once again, rewriting history in preparation for the return of Trump to the capital.
50% : "The election certification today is vastly different than 2020 -- no COVID lockdowns, high GOP engagement on election integrity, and a historic win by President Trump," added Marjorie Taylor Greene.
48% : "The return of Trump to the presidency means an end to the two prosecutions of the 45th president pursued by the Justice Department.
29% : In short, save for a potential sentencing in his New York criminal fraud trial, Donald Trump has wriggled his way free from every remaining major legal consequence stemming from his last four years in office and his years in business.
29% : That shock and the residual anger stemming from the twin failures (in many minds) of the justice system and the Democratic Party to stand up to Trump in an effective manner this year led many to focus their outrage on the anniversary of the attack.
26% : Worse than dead, actually: Trump may well pardon some or all of the defendants charged with crimes for the violent assault on the seat of U.S. democracy.
