Megan The Stallion kicked off the season 49 premiere of "Saturday Night Live" on NBC in a cold open that included jokes about the ongoing House Select Committee Investigating the Capitol Riot on Jan 6 and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The 27-year-old rapper and performer, known for her flair and flashy costumes, wore a near-see-through mesh suit when she welcomed the live audience. The first episode of the show’s newest season started with veterans Kenan Thompson and Heidi Gardner depicting members of the Democratic-led House Jan 6 Committee.

“January 6th was one of the most dramatic and consequential moments in our nation’s history,” proclaimed Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS) as portrayed tonight on Saturday Night Live once again by Kenan Thompson. “So, to fight back, we assembled a team of monotone nerds to do a Power Point,” the long time cast member added as fellow SNLers played Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) and soon-to-be departing Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY), with the latter in the form of Heidi Gardner.

“I’m gonna punch him out” comment was addressed.Kenan Thompson opened the sketch as Rep. Bennie Thompson, who explained that the committee was formed to fight back against the attempted insurrection of the U.S.

Former President Trump apparently has a lot in common with late presidents John Quincy Adams, John Tyler and Harry Truman. Congressional committees issued subpoenas to all of them to testify. Such subpoenas for a former chief executive are about as rare as it gets on Capitol Hill.

Former President Trump published a letter Friday ripping the House Select Committee on Jan. 6 for failing to investigate what he considers basic questions surrounding the riot. The committee issued a subpoena for testimony from Trump at its business meeting Thursday.

New footage from January 6, 2021, shows a candid moment where House Speaker Nancy Pelosi threatened to physically strike then-President Trump, should he have joined those protesting at the Capitol. In the video, which was publicly shared Thursday, Pelosi admits the actions could have resulted in her going to prison — a consequence she said she would "be happy" to accept. "I hope he comes, I’m going to punch him out," Pelosi tells her Chief of Staff Terri McCullough, who discourages her boss from making the comments.

The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, assault on the U.S. Capitol concluded its likely final meeting before the midterm elections with a few surprises.

Surprising no one, Donald Trump today quickly lashed out at the January 6 Select Committee after a vote to subpoena the former president over his role in the insurrection and attack on the Capitol last year. 

The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol voted unanimously on Thursday to subpoena former President Donald Trump.  The committee’s members, seven Democrats and two anti-Trump Republicans, voted to compel the former president to testify about his conduct leading up to and during the attack.

Donald Trump was subpoenaed today over his role in the insurrection and attack on the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. The Congressional January 6 Committee announced earlier today that it would vote on whether to subpoena the former president in its ongoing investigation into the assault. There had been little indication in recent days that such a move might be in the offing, though in the hours before the conclave NBC did report on the possibility.

The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol is expected to vote Thursday to subpoena former President Trump.  The committee’s members, seven Democrats and two anti-Trump Republicans, will hold a vote to compel the former president to testify about his conduct leading up to the incident, sources tell Fox News.Trump has previously refused to voluntarily cooperate with the panel, calling it a partisan witch hunt.  "What Donald Trump proceeded to do after the 2020 election is something no president had done before in our country," said Chairman Bennie Thompson, D-Miss.

The January 6th Committee returned on Thursday with what may be a closing argument before a large TV audience on Donald Trump’s role in trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election, leading to the deadly siege of the Capitol.

Caroline Framke Chief TV Critic Of all the possible outcomes facing Amazon’s “Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power,” the one I didn’t see coming is that I’d end up feeling a need to defend it. Basically, everything about the show’s production (i.e. a behemoth corporation spending unfathomable amounts of money on a blatant IP grab for a streaming service on the edge of relevance) represents everything I’ve come to loathe about the entertainment industry. The age of TV reboots seems almost quaint now, in this era of endless prequels and sequels to spinoffs of franchises. As the most expensive television series of all time (all! time!), “The Rings of Power” should by all rights be Enemy No. 1.
