House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) was called out on Monday for the five Republican lawmakers he tapped to sit on the select committee that will investigate the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol that was carried out by pro-Trump insurrectionists.
All five of the picks ― Reps. Jim Banks (Ind.) Jim Jordan (Ohio), Rodney Davis (Ill.), Kelly Armstrong (N.D.) and Troy Nehls (Texas) ― are, like McCarthy, allies of former President Donald Trump. Three of the five ― Banks, Jordan and Nehls ― voted against certifying the 2020 Electoral College votes from Arizona and Pennsylvania.
None voted to impeach Trump for his role in inciting the violence.
Jordan could even be called as a witness due to his links to Trump. During the attack itself, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) reportedly yelled at Jordan: “You fucking did this.”
Cheney will also serve on the 13-member committee, having been previously selected by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), who will have final approval over McCarthy’s candidates.
Speaking on CNN, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) described McCarthy’s choices as “insulting” and “shameful.”
“Kevin McCarthy has decided his role as a minority leader in the House of Representatives is to essentially be chauffeur of the clown car,” she told Don Lemon:

No one has been charged with insurrection. Nice try.
First US Capitol rioter convicted of a felony gets 8 months in prison after DOJ says stiffer sentence could stop future attacks

He pleaded guilty last month to obstructing congressional proceedings – specifically, the counting of the electoral votes, which he helped delay on January 6.
----------
Yet, had he been charged with "high treason"...that's a mandatory life sentence. In the old days..."high treason" was a death sentence via firing squad.
To date...579 people have been arrested and charged with crimes. You can find a full list of these Anti-Americans at the below link plus the state they're from.
I have not gone thru the full list...hopefully there's no one on the list that's from South Dakota, Illinois, or Kentucky.

- Unfortunately, we lost one treasonous U.S. veteran when she was shot dead trying to climb through a broken window in the Senate hall to get at the congressional members barricaded on the other side of the door.

Threats of incarceration don't fix stupid. But they may stop the mentally slow from following the stupid.
Shooting then dead works very good. Just ask Ashli E. Babbitt, 35, of San Diego.

Why hasn't anyone been charged with insurrection?
