I keep hearing this from progressives but I can never find it when I search. Odd that I heard the exact same thing attributed to Bannon

Newt Gingrich says that Jan. 6 Committee is ‘basically a lynch mob’ that could go to jail if Republicans get power - Business Insider Australia
Quotes from Newt Gingrich about Jan. 6:
“You have both with the Attorney General Garland and with this Select Committee of January 6th, people who have run amok,” said Gingrich, who served as speaker from 1995 to 1999 and unsuccessfully ran for president in 2012.
“They are breaking the rules. They are going after people in a way which is reminiscent of the British monarchy using closed-door systems that we outlawed deliberately because we had seen it. We knew what it was like. They are running over peoples’ civil liberties,” he added.
The committee is “literally just running over the law” and “pursuing innocent people,” Gingrich said, claiming the committee is “basically a lynch mob” and that Garland is “misusing the FBI.”
“What they need to understand is on January 4 next year, you’re going to have a Republican majority in the House, and a Republican majority in the Senate,” Gingrich predicted Sunday, adding “all these people who have been so tough and so mean and so nasty are gonna be delivered subpoenas for every document, every conversation, every tweet, every email.”
“I think when you have a Republican Congress, this is all going to come crashing down, and the wolves are going to find out that they’re now sheep,” Gingrich said. “And they’re the ones who are, in fact, going to, I think, face a real risk of jail for the kind of laws they’re breaking.”
