any smart republican is doing what the dems were doing a few years back

laying low and letting biden and those in power continue to show how far from reality that have wandered and before you say anything hip hop just think for a moment how bad things would be if biden had gotten his way on various spending bills

seriously how scheissed up do you have to be to make the senior senator from west virginia as the guy who kept the us economy from completely being driven off a cliff

oh wait, in the time it took me to type this biden applied two more sanctions that won't hurt russia, penalize americans, and will result in an executive order demanding equity for transgender house pets

Jan. 6 hearing: Trump remains ‘clear and present danger’ to American democracy, retired GOP judge tells panel​

The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot on Thursday laid out in striking new details how much pressure former President Donald Trump applied to then-Vice President Mike Pence to overturn the 2020 election, calling him a “wimp” and provoking an angry mob of supporters to threaten Pence’s life.

The committee said the rioters, some of whom vowed to kill Pence, came within 40 feet of him before Secret Service agents were able to get him to a safe location in the Capitol. The panel has accused Trump of leading a multi-pronged conspiracy to overturn President Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 contest.

Retired federal Judge J. Michael Luttig, who advised Pence ahead of the Capitol riot, directly accused Trump and his allies of waging a “war on democracy” on Jan. 6, 2021. He called Trump a “clear and present danger” to American democracy.

“Our democracy today is on a knife’s edge,” Luttig, a former judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, said in a blistering witness statement shared with CNBC by the select committee.

The previous hearing on Monday focused on how Trump amplified false claims that his loss was the result of widespread election fraud, even as numerous officials close to him told him that those claims were meritless.

Is anyone watching the Jan 6th hearings? Thoughts?

Nobody cares. It’s a witch hunt.

Nobody cares. It’s a witch hunt.

It's a one sided Soviet Style Stalinist show trial

If you haven't watched any of it, how could you have this opinion about it?

 

[Wexahu]

If you haven't watched any of it, how could you have this opinion about it?

Why would I watch it? This all happened almost 18 months ago. They were talking about it nonstop for a month afterward and some networks have kept going for another 15 months. It's been examined every which way it can be. I know what happened. I'm extremely confident in saying the entire ordeal has been completely blown out of proportion by Democrats and their media partners hell bent on taking Trump down at all costs.

It's a witch hunt. I have no interest in wasting my time watching it.

I understand that you formed these opinions months ago. But if there is new information coming out in these January 6th hearings don't you want to know about it so you can have an informed opinion, instead of your current uninformed opinion? Which I must tell you is wildly inaccurate.

Oh, and Bannon's request to have his contempt of congress charges dismissed were refused and he goes to trial next month. Trump couldn't pardon him this time.

FACT CHECK: Did Steve Bannon Describe Himself as a 'Leninist' Who Wants to Destroy the State?

After reports about the quote emerged, President Donald Trump's chief strategist told journalists that he did not recall the conversation.

yea it says unverified, but Bannon has said similar things for years which are verified and he doesn't deny saying it, just that he doesn't recall.

And of course his actions speak loudest.

Look at who is on the committee. 7 Democrats (including Adam Schiff for god's sake), Lynne Cheney and Adam Kinzinger. Give me a scheissing break.

It's a witch hunt and not worth paying any attention to.

It is fascinating how on the one hand you admit to not paying attention to it, and on the other hand you claim to be an expert on it.

I don't live in a cave so I do know who is on the committee.

It's fascinating to me how you can think a group like that can conduct anything resembling a fair, honest hearing. Laughable might be a better word. It's laughable that they are even having this hearing.

It is laughable that you think it is possible to have informed accurate opinions regarding a hearing that you aren't watching. Nothing about your description of the Jan 6th hearing is accurate by the way but you would have no way of knowing that.

Not to mention that apparently Saudi oil is less offensive to the climate than good ole Texas Tea…

Of course. The Saudi oil isn't stained with the white supremacy that Texas oil is. And white supremacy is the leading danger to both America and the earth's environment.

Everyone knows that Saudi oil is misogynist oil not racist oil...

Saudi is so misogynist that even the oil is not allowed to drive...

There could be 3 more conservatives on the committee, but McCarthy threw a fit when 2 of the 5 (including the radical right Jim Jordan just couldn't be accepted with the other adults offered) and McCarthy took his toys(other 3 conservatives) home , which was stupid on his part.

not sure they even wanted to truly be on that committee

seems a big part of being in congress these days in not sponsoring bills or actual work and instead griping about supreme court rulings and presidential executive orders while they never wanted to go on public records on such matters

Well, sure Jordan wanted on so he could throw wrenches/disrupt on all layers of the investigation, which we all realize are 90% Republican/ Trumplicans/ and White House appointees testifying. So many of the Trump extreme loyalist have refused to testify or pleaded the 5th.

Can't say the remaining 3 McCarthy's members wanted on the committee or not, but he offered them up. Just don't understand all the whining about a shame investigation.
