WASHINGTON – The House select committee investigating the events leading up to, and surrounding, the insurrection attempt on the U.S. Capitol is making significant behind-the-scenes progress, according to its members.

Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., co-chair of the committee, told reporters the committee has conducted more than 150 interviews so far, according to an aide.

"That just gives you a sense. It is a range of engagements — some formal interviews, some depositions," said Cheney to Politico, which first reported the story. "There really is a huge amount of work underway that is leading to real progress for us.”

The chair of the committee, Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., has signed 20 additional subpoenas that could be issued imminently, according to a select committee aide.

Are we supposed to be happy with a few Proud Boys and Oathkeepers going to jail? Where is the DOJ investigation into the planning meeting at the Washington Hotel?
