Their first filibuster will be to prevent the establishment of a Commission
to investigate their attempted coup.
Let that sink in!

2. Make them use the filibuster then,
force them to stand on the floor of the Senate and explain why they are anti-democracy.
They can't filibuster a House select committee. I bet Speaker Pelosi has the plans already laid out.
Schumer needs to move this along, one of their tactics is to delay.

cue Adam Sciff. Let's go House!

8. 2 1/2 years, 32 hearings,
11 hours of Secretary Clinton testifying under oath for Benghazi, that found no wrong doing. **** Marco Rubio and his insurrectionist party.
Plus the fact, that for Benghazi, Repukes never offered a bipartisan commission, they went straight for the partisan committee hearings.

13. Let them.
The commission bill is so watered down as to be completely ineffectual. Republicans can pick whatever nuts they want for their 5 spots and will pack it with lunatics. The Republican vice chair can derail any and all subpoenas and the only way to override their objection is a majority vote of the 10 members. Not going to happen. Dec 31 deadline? If subpoenas are issued and fought, and they will be, it will take longer than that to adjudicate in most cases. And that deadline conveniently turns things off before the 2022 mid terms heat up.
The more I think about it, the more it looks like a trap from Republicans. OK, you don't want a partisan commission, then fine. A special consul, with real "teeth" to investigate, charge and prosecute, will be appointed. They can coordinate the ongoing investigations and start new ones, following this trail right to congressional offices with impunity.

We're not against democracy. There are already criminal investigations into the protest. There has already been an impeachment. We're not letting you have your sham commission so you can gloat and declare Trump at fault.

if the democrats would widen the scope of the "commission" to include other groups such as blm and antifa I'll bet the filibuster wouldn't be needed

That Den/Prog/leftist groups' activities were excluded from the proposed commission's scope proves it is designed to be a Kangaroo Kommission.
