“Remember how there was tons of footage and evidence of officers & others inside on 1/6 supporting insurrectionists, but then everyone decided it was too politically risky to investigate thoroughly so they brushed under the rug?” she later tweeted.

Not that she is wrong about the true story being swept under the rug. Nancy Pelosi’s J6 kangaroo court refuses to investigate anything that doesn’t lead to Donald Trump.

Hello, teachers. What do you think "kangaroo" means in this sentence? I haven't found any relevant definition.

I should've guessed.:) There's no J6 "court", there's a committee on J6.
 
By definition, @Ostap, a kangaroo court is not a real court.
Yes*, I just meant I shoud have been searching for "kangaroo court" rather than "kangaroo".

*Or should I say "no" if I agree with the negative statement here.

Did you learn something about kangaroos? 😊 (See below.)

Bob: Can a kangaroo jump higher than a house?
Carol: It sure can! A house can't jump at all.
