Jim, that is the reason for the January 6th Committee. They are simply there to fact find as a non partisan Committee. They have zero authority to prosecute.

I'm aware of that. But let's pretend for a moment that there was no January 6th Committee, or that the GOP went along with it only to stock it with saboteurs and grandstanders playing to Fox News. What then?
Would there have been any findings to share with the DOJ? The idea that DOJ is cribbing from a committee that might well not have happened does not inspire confidence.
Let's go back one more step Jim. Had it not been for Nancy Pelosi to procure this out in the open Committee , the Proud Boys and all the ancillary groups and bad players would have by now regrouped and have done far more damage than they did January 6th. It would have gone unchecked.
Am I sure the head of the fish will be appropriately charge? Hell no. I can only hope this will all play out to re-secure Democracy and move forward. Fingers crossed.
There are far too many close-run things that could have gone differently for us to conclude that the system worked. There are far too many unknowns that could still play out the wrong way to conclude that the system ultimately will work.
