Because people are wailing because they don't understand the Jan6 investigation, again, two posts on it.

Just for Perspective: Investigations Take Longer When Presidents Don't Wiretap Themselves - emptywheel
A few weeks ago, Peter Baker marked the day that the January 6 investigation has taken as long as the time between the burglary to Nixon's resignation.I reacted poorly to Baker's claim to offer perspective; even on past presidential investigations, he has been overly credulous.And there's really no comparison between Watergate and January 6, particularly if one compares - as Baker does - time-to-resignation under a still-sane Republican party with time-to-indictment in the MAGAt era.
