Jan 6 Committee Public Hearings

I can’t watch much more of this judge. Is he having a stroke or is he just not able to speak? He sounds like he’s doing a parody of Cpt. Kirk.

Also: why do I care? he isn’t a witness. He’s just a guy offering an opinion. Sure, he’s got conservative credentials, but we’re not going to learn anything new from a guy who wasn’t there.
 
Jared Kushner is a complete and utter piece of 💩… ”sorry I’m too busy pardoning rich crooks to care about lawyers whining about the election”
 
The main takeaway is supposed to be that the Vice President cannot unilaterally overturn the election. I guess the other takeaway is that Trump knew that and pushed the narrative anyway.
 
I found this interesting: Mike Pence apparently starts each day with a staff prayer meeting, often led by a staff member. Gotta be a Christian to be on his staff I guess…
 
Trump tried to badger Pence into illegally overturning the election, with shouting and name calling (wimp and p***y) on Jan 6.

Pence, like everybody at that point, was tired of his shouting and knew he was a lame duck, and ignored him.
 
Even AFTER the attack on the Capitol, Mr. Eastman passed along a request pressuring Pence to overturn the election at around 11pm the night of Jan 6.

Trump is demanding equal airtime to put out his evidence of voter fraud and crimes by Democrats. Yes please. Let's do that. Hopefully that exact thing will take place in court where more than just his ego is on the line.

It would be hours of endless nonsensical and incoherent rambling, shit, even Fox & Friends cut him off after 20 minutes. Nobody would air it and he's not organized enough to put together a real rebuttal. Let him rant on "Truth" Social.

he already has over and over again. sorry just cause he can say something does not make it real provide evidence.
 
They breezed by some evidence that I think will end up being a big deal.

Some of the people who supported the ”stop the steal” nonsense and tried to get Pence to overturn the election… asked for pardons immediately after it didn’t work out. This indicates they knew their behavior was criminal, but engaged in it, expecting a pardon.
 
Jason Miller is such a fraud. His testimony makes clear he knew all of this was BS, but he does the rounds anyways and pushes the big lie.

What a joke. Arrest all these people. They all saw this, none of them tried legitimately to stop it, and that includes Pence who, despite ultimately doing the right thing, made no effort to bring awareness to the criminal plot his leader was plotting. And we still won’t. Unless he testifies in front of this committee and condemns his former boss, he’s a loser too.

And that's why I'm saying we should make him put it all out there in a legal setting. He'd probably spend years in jail just for his repeated and rampant contempt of court nonsensical outbursts.

And make him a defendant forced to sit there the entire time. I know he's well known for constant litigation, but I'm willing to bet for most of it it's just his lawyers and he isn't even present.

I know there are those who believe that if we give him more airtime or put him on the hot seat then that's just going to fire up his base more. Well, what do you think it's going to do if we just let him walk away unscathed? What's the lesson and message to his supporters there?

And don't get me started on our completely hypocritical "law and order" institutions. Assuming things will go where it looks like they are going to go, our supreme court "won't be bullied" by majority public opinion on Roe v Wade but the justice department will be bullied by a minority of psychopath opinions to not prosecute Trump. Both cases, minority rule.

Not exactly. They believed they were doing "the right thing" and when they succeeded, they would get medals from the PreЦарdent and be hailed as heroes for saving the country. A fighter on the losing side knows that war does not decide who is right, only who is left, and they are not war crimes if you win.
