Three out of five respondents say Trump is responsible for the events that led to the U.S. Capitol riot.
The share of Republican voters who support an investigation and holdresponsible the former president and his backersstands in stark contrast to the House GOP conference, where only two members — Reps. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) — voted to form the panel after GOP senators last May blocked the creation of a bipartisan 9/11-style commission.
The pair are the sole Republican members on the select committee following a dispute between Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy over his proposed appointees.
Support for the matter was greater among Democrats (82 percent in favor) and self-identified independents (58 percent). Overall, three-fifths of those surveyed backed the Jan. 6 committee, and two-thirds said it was important that the federal government probe the events surrounding the attack on the Capitol.
The poll surveyed 2,000 registered voters between Dec. 18-20 with an overall margin of error of 2 percentage points.
Still, support for the Jan. 6 panel deteriorated somewhat when the question was rephrased to note that Pelosi appointed all nine of its members, including Cheney and Kinzinger. Only 16 percent of Republicans expressed approval of the committee, compared to 70 percent who responded negatively.
More than three-quarters of Democrats maintained support for the select committee in that question, though approval among independents sank to 43 percent, and opposition rose nine percentage points to 36 percent.
Survey respondents also overwhelmingly believe that Trump’s supporters were to blame for breaching the Capitol on Jan. 16, 62 percent to 14 percent. About a quarter said they did not know.
Likewise, a majority — 59 percent — said that Trump was either “very” or “somewhat” responsible for the events that led a mob of people to descend upon Congress and temporarily halt certification of Joe Biden’s victory.

Poll: House Investigation Jan 6 Is Fake News! You can’t believe a single word of him!
I spent some time studying the attached picture of the Congressional panel – are these our leaders?! Boy, America is in trouble.
U R Correct in ALL aspects of the Word. Excellent Post ! Keep Fact -Checking.
Rep. PIGLOSI , Is the ever One that they need to look at for the PLOTTING , PLANNING and DEPLOYED the Insurgentcy. When POTUS Donald J. Trump requested the Presence of the NATIONAL GUARD and PIGLOSI told President Trump NO ! PIGLOSI even hold the CAPITAL POLICE to STAND DOWN ! PIGLOSI should be made a
EXAMPLE of and be held ACCOUNTABLE for this CRAP she put together and is BLAMING it on the POTUS Donald J. Trump and his Supporters. PIGLOSI , Should be Required to hand over every piece of COMMUNICATION S that she as HIDDEN AWAY.
Agree with ever thing you stated, why can’t the legal Americans see the plot?
F that Communist (DemocRAT) SCUM period!
A democratic republic depends upon an unbiased and aggressive media. If we had a competent media, they would be demanding complete release of all videos and they would challenge Nazi Piglosi (as THE person responsible for security of the Capital building) on why she declined numerous offers to provide National Guard troops to protect the building.
Unfortunately, the press is nothing more than the publicity arm of the Dumocrat party.
If anyone in the House was a true American, he/she/it would demand a competency test for the Idiot-In-Chief.
The big question is why do big city citizens continue to vote for leadership that doesn’t care the population – leadership cares only for power and wealth for themselves.

The whole thing was a set up. The FBI had people in the crowd urging Trump supporters to go into the Capitol. Let’s see aLL the tapes.
We need all the tapes the DOJ is hiding. I bet they show where Pelosi and the Rhino republican McConnell had the capital Police to stand down. That very day a van loaded with Antifa was seen being escorted by the DC police. What does the Mayor, DC Police, and the CIA, FBI, DOJ, BLM, Polise, Rhinos, McConnell, Capital Security, Guard, DOD, Pentagon the propaganda spreading fake News, deep state, were involved in the Jan 6th insurrection. This panel was only selected because they hate Trump. This group of the Democratic Socialist are illegal, not sanction by the Senate just a one-sided by the Democratic Socialist House and two Rhinos. But come mid-term it’s going to turn Red across the United States. America is fed up with all of the bull crap that the Communist Democrats and Rhino have done to this country. Blue state will Turn Red also. 2024 Trump will win! Biden cheated, cheaters never win. God is in control ? Keep America Free!
That’s because the rhino Republican ass kissing pukes who are corrupt communist in training and working for the Communist Democrat Party don’t want the probe of January 6th, because it’ll make our President Trump look like he has been,, right the whole time,and the Demorat and Republican dirtbags that sided with setting Trump up will be prosecuted and persecuted by the American people ,and rightfully so ,they need to be hung for high treason, and crimes against the American people, along with the corrupt media and fake news outlets, the corrupt doj, corrupt FBI, & the scumbags on the Supreme Court that are communist one world order elitist supporting the destruction of our constitution and failing to uphold the laws, they supported this and knew all along this was going to be perpetrated.
Why are you not looking at ALL the things that happened in Portland, and a few other citys, Burning buildings, Police cars, some people where killed , Robbing stores, and on . We already know that Adam Lier-Shif has put in False statements .
These are democrats they surveyed not republicans what complete BS!
