Mitch McConnell on where Senate Republicans are on forming a Jan. 6 commission: "Willing to listen" to arguments about why such a commission is needed.
Says a Jan. 6 commission needs to be "balanced" (it is, based on what Pelosi has agreed to) and for now, Senate Republicans are "undecided" on whether to proceed.
Why would GOPers be "undecided" on looking into the Jan. 6 Capitol attack?
Maybe because many of them told the same lies about election fraud that fueled the pro-Trump attack that day. And 8 of them still voted to overturn the election despite the attack. huffpost.com/entry/republic…

Q: Are you open to the Jan. 6 commission being focused only on the Jan. 6 attack and not other things?
McConnell: *chuckles* We are undecided.
