BARRY LOUDERMILK

Chairman Barry Loudermilk pledges to review "both sides" of Jan. 6 and will consider panel interview of Nancy Pelosi. Democrats call effort "obscene" and "political theater."

The House remains deeply focused on the 2021 Capitol attack, with each side trying to settle past grievances through investigations. The Senate? It's moved on.

With Rodney Davis's loss to a Trump-backed challenger, Barry Loudermilk is now next in line to lead the committee if Republicans retake the House.

Important new evidence hints at plans to infiltrate the Capitol. But that evidence shouldn't detract from the most obvious factor.

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol insurrection released video on Wednesday of a Capitol tour led by a Republican lawmaker the day before the attack, showing at least one participant taking photos of stairwells and tunnels in the Capitol complex.

There remains no proof that Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) led a “reconnaissance” tour for insurrectionists. But that allegation looks less speculative now -- and Loudermilk clearly hadn’t shared the whole story.

Video evidence shows tourists taking photos of security checkpoints and contradicts Barry Loudermilk’s previous denial he led a tour

The new footage shows Rep. Barry Loudermilk leading a group through several congressional office buildings the day before the Jan. 6 attack.

“Individuals on the tour photographed and recorded areas of the complex not typically of interest to tourists, including hallways, staircases, and security checkpoints,” committee chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) wrote in a letter to Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.).

Republicans said a letter from Capitol Police vindicated Rep. Barry Loudermilk, who was questioned about a tour a day before the riot by Trump supporters.

Police have determined a House Republican who led a tour of the U.S. Capitol the day before the Jan. 6 attack was simply showing his constituents around and not suspicious.

House Republicans are threatening to release Capitol Police video taken on Jan. 5 in order to clear the name of a colleague accused of leading tours the day before the deadly riot – but they do not yet have the footage. The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol last week asked…

Some Democrats claimed early that these were akin to "reconnaissance" tours. Here's where the Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) revelation fits.

In a story published May 19, 2022, The Associated Press reported that a House committee had questioned Rep. Barry Loudermilk of Georgia about a tour of the Capitol complex before the Jan. 6 insurrection.

Reps. Cheney and Thompson requested a meeting with Loudermilk next week — just weeks ahead of public hearings scheduled to start on June 9

Proposals to ban stock trading by lawmakers are gaining ground in Congress and on the campaign trail.

Exactly one month ago, George Floyd spoke his final words I can't breathe and changed the course of history, Pelosi said. The George Floyd Justice in Policing Act is perhaps the most ambitious set of proposed changes to police procedures and accountability in decades. After the GOP policing bill stalled this week, blocked by Democrats, Trump shrugged.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Two U.S. Republican lawmakers on Wednesday opposed the impeachment of President Donald Trump with remarks that alluded to the Biblical account of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, causing the phrase Trump to Jesus to trend on Twitter. During that sham trial, Pontius Pilate afforded more rights to Jesus than Democrats have afforded this president in this process, the lawmaker added. Pilate was the Roman governor who presided over the trial of Jesus and ordered his crucifixion in the New Testament of the Bible. After Loudermilks remarks, Trump to Jesus was among the top phrases trending on Twitter, just behind #ImpeachmentDay. Pontius Pilate also made it into the top 10 trending in the United States.
