"House Republicans intensify scrutiny of Jan. 6 amidst pressure from Greene and Trump loyalists"

House Republicans, including Speaker Mike Johnson and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, are intensifying their focus on the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, with Johnson releasing security footage and Greene calling for a new select committee to investigate the bipartisan panel that probed the attack. Some Republicans continue to defend those prosecuted for their involvement, while others promote unfounded conspiracy theories about undercover federal agents. The renewed focus highlights the continued influence of former President Trump on the party, but also poses risks for Republicans in battleground districts. Despite concerns about misrepresentation of the footage, Republicans are determined to provide transparency and allow the public to draw their own conclusions.
