At a recent press conference, Democratic Representatives Eric Swalwell of California and Jasmine Crockett of Texas-both appointed by House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries to a new January 6 subcommittee-once again made fools of themselves. For example, in a video shared on social media platform X, Swalwell asked an absurd rhetorical question: &#8220;Since the Civil War, what are the three most important dates in American history?&#8221; Then he answered with feigned seriousness: &#8220;December 7, 1941; September 11; and January 6.&#8221; He claimed that the last two dates are so ingrained in our collective memory that even mentioning them without years is enough. Meanwhile, Crockett spoke vaguely about &#8220;democracy&#8221; and falsely accused former President Donald Trump of inciting the January 6 attack and pardoning violent insurrectionists afterward. Despite these theatrics from Swalwell and Crockett-who serve under Jamie Raskin on this committee-the real control lies with Republican Representative Barry Loudermilk of Georgia, who chairs it as established by House Speaker Mike Johnson. Thus, Democrats&#8217; efforts amount to little more than political theater clinging desperately to a false narrative about January 6 with exaggerated zeal. Ultimately though, they have already lost this debate; voters reaffirmed their stance by reelecting Trump on November 5, 2024. So when confronted with relentless Democratic claims about January 6th, one need only reply: &#8220;Remember, remember the fifth of November.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2484188,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Crockett-v-Swalwell.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[35815,62942,34125,36160,32515],"class_list":["post-2484187","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-eric-swalwell","tag-jan-6-subcommittee","tag-jasmine-crockett","tag-political-controversy","tag-us-politics"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Crockett-v-Swalwell.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2484187","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2484187"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2484187\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2484191,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2484187\/revisions\/2484191"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2484188"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2484187"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2484187"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2484187"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
