    His lawyer is legally and constitutionally correct, this committee is abusing it's power and authority.

    No it does not. It belongs in some alternate reality. Or violence like we saw that day is acceptable conduct to some. ( as part of the culture of violence that exists )

    In reality, I can't help if you want to cherry pick history.

    Regardless, it was a mostly peaceful protest where a police officer wrongfully killed someone.

    Those pictures dont refute anything I am saying.

    I had to laugh at this headline...

    Sure, if you start at 10am, take a 2 hour lunch, and check your phone every 15 minutes for Tik Tok videos, you might be able to stretch it out to a whole day. I imagine it could be done in 3-4 hours, but a single day sounds like you needed to put a bit of effort into it...

    Trump ally Steve Bannon can be prosecuted in a single day, DOJ says

    And that violates the Constitution and previous court decisions as I have cited already.

    Appeals court rules against Trump in fight over Jan. 6 documents

    A federal appeals court ruled that former President Donald Trump cannot prevent the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack from getting hundreds of documents created when he was in the White House. His lawyers will most likely now file an emergency appeal with the Supreme Court in an effort to block the release.

    *********

    Trump’s White House records can be released to Congress in Jan. 6 investigation, appeals court rules

    Former president Donald Trump sued to stop the release of records to a House committee probing his communications and activities leading up to and during the Capitol riot by a mob of his supporters on Jan. 6, even though President Biden approved making the material public. The Supreme Court is likely to be asked to intervene in the clash over the ownership of presidential records and a statute governing their release.

    New York attorney general seeks to depose Trump next month in civil fraud probe

    New York Attorney General Letitia James wants former President Donald Trump to answer questions under oath on Jan. 7 as part of her civil investigation into whether the Trump Organization committed fraud in reporting the value of properties to banks and tax authorities, a source familiar with the investigation told NBC News.

    McCarthy is the second-biggest ***** in history. He’s like a rat. He’ll do anything to survive. He doesn’t believe half the **** he says but he has to say it to stay the minority leader.

    He’s almost as bad Ted Cruz. Trump literally called his wife ugly and Ted repeatedly called Trump a conman in the 2016 election. But Ted know he had to kiss Trump’s ass to stay in the Senate.

    Jan. 6 committee recommends Mark Meadows face contempt charge

    The congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot advanced a measure referring former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows to the Justice Department for contempt of Congress over his refusal to answer questions about the attack on the Capitol. The House is expected to vote as soon as Tuesday on whether to ask the Justice Department to prosecute Meadows.

    https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/do...d9091aa0bbf4ef284dc0ddf7d4abb252027c596581efa


    Unanimous vote .......with some new information coming out. Seems even Don Jr was texting Meadows trying t get him to get his dad to call a stop to the rioters. Several members from Fox news did as well........(even though they later minimized it )

    Trump did NOTHING.........as he wanted this riot to work in his favor. ie....overturn the results of the election .......via Pence. and defy the democratic process............

    These text messages are revealing .......and demonstrate acutely Trumps deliberate inaction to quell the rioters ....But then he had inspired them to be there in the firs place.

    Fox did not carry this vote live........as it goes against their continuous narrative. of disinformation.

    A PowerPoint describing how to overturn the 2020 election circulated before Jan. 6. Here is what we know about it.

    A conspiratorial PowerPoint presentation that offered suggestions for how the Trump administration could move to overturn the 2020 election results is getting new attention after former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows submitted similar slides to the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol. Here's what we know — and what we don't know — about the presentation, its contributors and who may have seen it.

    D.C. attorney general sues Proud Boys, Oathkeepers over Jan. 6 attack at Capitol, seeks stiff financial penalties to cover damages

    The lawsuit is similar to one filed against white supremacists and hate groups involved in the 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, which netted a $26 million verdict last month.

    House votes to find former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows in contempt for refusing to comply with Jan. 6 committee subpoena

    The vote to hold Meadows, a onetime congressman from North Carolina, in criminal contempt comes a day after members of the committee voted unanimously in favor of the resolution. It is now up to the Justice Department on whether to pursue the charge. Meadows has provided the committee with some information, including texts from allies of President Donald Trump and his son Donald Trump Jr. urging Meadows to get Trump to stop the rioters as the insurrection unfolded.

    You seem to be well informed on much of what's happening around the insurrection/coup activities.

    Do you recall this one?? It's been a year and a lot was going around regarding the coup planning, but I honestly don't remember Pence being sued before 10 days before 1/6..

    https://www.yahoo.com/news/jan-6-puzzle-piece-thats-093050137.html

    I mean, it IS Louis Gohmert, who is only matched by Mike Lindell when it comes to the dummies at the forefront, but this story must have come and gone too fast for even PF.com to notice...

    Just laughing at ole' Moscow Mitch... he's out talking today about the 1/6 commission, but apparently, he said THIS back in May when refusing to support the original bi partisan effort...

    SNIP
    • "I do not believe the additional, extraneous 'commission'... would uncover crucial new facts," he said at the time.

    I guess we might as well face it, he's addicted to insurrection....

    But in unrelated news, it's not that hard to investigate former leaders.... everybody's doing it

    House Jan. 6 committee seeks information from Rep. Scott Perry (R-Pa.) about communications with Trump White House officials

    The committee investigating the Capitol insurrection made the request to Perry, who objected to certifying Pennsylvania’s electoral votes for Joe Biden. Perry has emerged in recent weeks as the leading conduit for House Republicans involved with former president Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

    This link indicates Meadows got a new phone so they may not get the Signal messages from him, but that Perry may not have done the same... although I'm sure that thing has faced a hammer by now...

    https://www.rawstory.com/mark-meadows-signal-account-questions/

    Sounds like more 5th amendment's will be coming, this time from a sitting Congressman.... So much integrity there...

    There was no insurrection attempt. It was a fiery but mostly peaceful protest. Nothing is coming of any of this fake news.
