Former Republican Speaker Newt Gingrich says that the Congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot could have to answer for themselves in the future. During an appearance with Fox News, Gingrich suggested that some members of the panel may face jail time for their work.

The Hill reports:

Gingrich, who has reportedly been advising Republican leadership over the last several months, predicted during an appearance on Fox News on Sunday that the GOP will regain control of Congress after this year’s midterm elections and will avenge what leading Republicans have said is a partisan investigation led by Cheney and Democrats.

“You’re going to have a Republican majority in the House and a Republican majority in the Senate. And all of these people who have been so tough and so mean and so nasty are going to be delivered subpoenas,” Gingrich said,  adding the lawmakers heading up the commission are “just running over the law.”

“And I think when you have a Republican Congress, this is all going to come crashing down,” he continued. “And the wolves are going to find out they are now sheep and they’re the ones who are going to face a real risk of, I think, jail for the kind of laws they’re breaking.”

House Select Committee member Rep. Liz Cheney slammed Gingrich over his remarks to Fox News.

“A former Speaker of the House is threatening jail time for members of Congress who are investigating the violent January 6 attack on our Capitol and our Constitution,” Cheney said in a tweet on Sunday. “This is what it looks like when the rule of law unravels.”

Cheney is one of the two Republicans on the House committee and is currently facing an uphill re-election battle.
