GOP's Jan. 6 stance questioned by fellow Republicans.

Republican lawmakers, including Marjorie Taylor Greene, are working to distort the facts of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and downplay the risk of domestic extremism in the U.S. They are seeking to portray the perpetrators of the riot as victims of zealous federal prosecutors and attempting to rebrand those who stormed the Capitol as "political prisoners." Meanwhile, nearly 1,000 people have been charged by the Justice Department in the attack on the Capitol, and some Republican-led committees are probing the federal government's treatment of parents protesting school board policies. Democrats are warning against the dangerously Orwellian attempt to whitewash recent history.
