Why have none of his co-conspirators in Congress been brought to justice yet? The Republicans in the House and Senate voted to let Trump off the hook. Are the Democrats are willing to let Republicans like Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley and Tommy Tuberville off the hook, too? <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"It's true federal investigators have started examining communique between the rioters and U.S. lawmakers (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2021\/03\/04\/politics\/capitol-riot-investigation-lawmakers\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">It&#8217;s true federal investigators have started examining communique between the rioters and U.S. lawmakers<\/a>. But despite overwhelming video and audio evidence, nothing has been done yet.  Hawley is especially appalling since <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"he gave the rioters a big fist up on that January 6th morning, which caused one of his earliest supporters to regret his decision (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/congress\/sen-josh-hawley-becomes-public-enemy-no-1-capitol-hill-n1253470\" target=\"_blank\">he gave the rioters a big fist up on that January 6th morning, which caused one of his earliest supporters to regret his decision<\/a>.

On January 6th, Hawley, Ted Cruz and Tommy Tuberville opening questioned the legitimacy of the 2020 election right before the riots occurred thus fanning the flames for the insurrectionists.

Sidenote: It&#8217;s funny that Republicans are crying now that Democrats need to show unity  in the Senate when all the Republicans had to do to promote unity was accept the election results. The hypocrisy runs deep with the GOP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that Merrick Garland has been confirmed <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"he has promised that investigation into the Capitol riot will be top priority (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/live\/2021\/02\/22\/us\/joe-biden-news\" target=\"_blank\">he has promised that investigation into the Capitol riot will be given top priority<\/a>. So maybe, just maybe, justice will be coming soon for the instigators like the new, GOP pinhead traitor clown Josh Hawley.
