The GOP finally successfully blocked the Democrats in its first filibuster of the Biden Administration.
The effort to open debate on a bill to create a commission to investigate the January 6 Capitol riot failed in the senate on Friday in a 54-35 vote.
Twice-failed presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton lashed out at Senate Republicans for blocking the commission and falsely claimed Trump supporters murdered a police officer.
“An angry mob attacked our Capitol, our lawmakers, and our election,” Hillary said in a tweet on Friday. “They killed a policeman. And Republican leaders would rather we all not know more about what happened.”
An angry mob attacked our Capitol, our lawmakers, and our election.
They killed a policeman.
And Republican leaders would rather we all not know more about what happened.

Of course this is a brazen lie.
The only person murdered that day was Ashli Babbitt.
Babbitt, an unarmed veteran, was murdered by a Capitol Hill Police lieutenant.
Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick suffered two strokes and died of natural causes, the District Chief medical examiner ruled last month.
The autopsy found no evidence of external or internal injuries and Sicknick did not have an allergic reaction to any chemical irritants.
The mainstream media, with The New York Times leading the charge, lied about Sicknick’s death and falsely claimed he died from injuries suffered after being hit in the head with a fire extinguisher during the Capitol riot on January 6.
The Gateway Pundit was first to report that Officer Sicknick may have died from a stroke.
Twitter users blasted Hillary Clinton.
There's an angry mob in @HillaryClinton's head…
Ashli Babbitt was murdered by a Capitol Hill Police lieutenant – all other deaths were of natural causes and no police officers were killed.
This is the progressive @TheDemocrats
Is Hillary the queen of Blue Anon? https://t.co/Wa33t7LFhS— Tony Shaffer (@T_S_P_O_O_K_Y) May 28, 2021
This is a flat out reprehensible lie.
But we expect that from her.
The only police officer killed at the Capitol was after Jan 6th was killed by a black male Democrat who crushed the cop’s body with a car. https://t.co/v6V38iisyC

Twitter's going to remove the tweets of all the people lying about the murder of a police officer on January 6th, right? https://t.co/zL0IqgmmFz

An angry woman lied about her servers, destroyed evidence, and refused to accept the outcome of the election she lost.
She lied about how four Americans were killed in Benghazi.
And her husband was great friends with Jeffrey Epstein.
Maybe sit this one out, Granny. https://t.co/IIVFkfwRRo

An officer was not killed on Jan 6th. That’s a lie. The truth? On April 2nd a Capitol Police officer was killed after an attacker rammed his car into a barricade at the Capitol & tried to stab other officers. Dems would rather we all not know more about what happened on April 2. https://t.co/136X6I0qsO
