"But just as glaring is what the report didn't consider," Schumer said. "Indeed, what it was not allowed to consider. The report did not investigate, report on, or hardly make any reference to the actual cause--the actual impetus--for the attack on January 6."
"With the exception of a brief reference to former President Trump's remarks at the ellipse, Senate Republicans insisted that the report exclude anything having to do with the cause of the insurrection," he said.
"If anything, the joint report by the Homeland Security and Rules committees has strengthened the argument for an independent commission on January 6."
Former President George W. Bush nominated Gorsuch to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit in May 2006. Two months later, the Senate confirmed him by unanimous voice vote. "I resist pigeon holes. I think those are not terribly helpful, pigeon-holing someone as having this philosophy or that philosophy," Gorsuch said during his confirmation hearing, according to an online transcript of the event. "People do unexpected things and pigeon holes ignore gray areas in the law, of which there are a great many."
