I doubt it considering @RepKinzinger donated to Michael Byrd's GoFundMe while sitting on the Committee, because thats not a conflict of interest AT ALL!

One year ago at 2:44PM, I witnessed something that would change my life forever--
There isn't a day that has gone by since the 6th that I haven't thought about the way Ashli Babbitt was killed before my eyes.
[THREAD]
Every day the situation replays in my head, almost feeling as real as when the shooting took place. I remember what it felt like at that moment as a Journalist with very little medical training trying to shine sufficient light on her so we could unravel the scarf to tend to her--
The feeling of complete helplessness as I was trying my best to help her while being surrounded by Officers who said they would help only to watch her lay there in the hallway after they pushed trained medics away from her--
President Trump is spewing misinformation here and it’s perfect for the Establishments narrative.
Ashli Babbitt was not the only person killed on January 6th—
He should know this by now.
Rosanne Boyland did not die of “acute amphetamine intoxication” — she was beaten and trampled. The only substance she had in her system that day was her legally prescribed dose of Adderall.
The moments after Kevin Greenson was hit by a Smoke Grenade—
People in the crowd can be seen performing compressions after setting him down from the fence they laid him on.
Officers would not let Protestors carry Greenson out to get help.

Lauren Witzke was an eye witness to Kevin Greenson’s death—
“After being flash bombed and tear-gassed for the third time, I looked down beside me to see that a middle-aged man — Kevin Greenson — on the ground, and blue in the face.”
Her full statement is provided.
Chris Alberts is another witness to Kevin Greenson’s death—
“The crowd was being completely responsive to what the Officer was saying and yet nothing happened. About 30-40 minutes go by before they dragged him out of there.”

“She spent time here. She was stationed here, she was stationed at Dyess. She still at the time of her death has her name on a deed to a property here in the state of Texas in Abilene— and she was not more proud of anything other than that.”
“Me and Wilma were the ones that had to separate Ashli’s ashes to distribute them to the family— God damn hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life.”
“I have traveling Ashli (ashes) so I’ll take her down to the beach sometimes, take her to the sunset”
