    Yea, well, fortunately none of them are SC justices so any threats are just imaginary.

    However, that is no excuse for the lack of fairness. There should be someone there who is cross examining. Trump might be guilty of a lot of things, but we will never know for sure with this sham investigation.

    Is that bit of absurdity of your own design or did you hear it on right wing media?

    Watch as the right cuddle terrorists and insurrectionists. They will become violent the next time they don’t get what they want. Remember that the next time an election happens.

    That was a first-hand account. And that is the ball game.

    Of course, Trump knows and directed his base with lies.

    All politicians lie. The stain is sweating bullets right now and it's not over perjury.

    Plus, why would anybody consider being his "friend"? Look how he treated Pence, Barr, Rudy and the Capitol rioters. With a friend like him, who needs enemies?

    Suffering from cognitive dissonance, huh?

    It’s fair. All involved are welcome to testify under oath. The committee is open to hearing from anyone.

    The sham is fighting like hell to avoid being placed under oath, taking the fifth, seeking pardons while having diarrhea of the mouth in any forum where you can speak irresponsibly.

    “You know what we used to do in the old days when we were smart, right? The spies and treason, we used to handle it a little differently than we do now.”

    It’s not like they’ll be facing death even if the former President believes they (he) should. We have a legal process and this hearing isn’t it.

    It is nothing but a political show. The committee might be open to hearing from anyone. However, they will not be questioned by anyone favorable to Trump. That is not fair.

    I realize this is not court of law. However, a court of law would never be conducted that way because of the lack of fairness.

    Even a first year law student could shred her testimony to bits.

    Trump is in the past - there was a protest at the Capital that got out of hand .. no big deal.. Biden got his day in the Sun .. which will dim some what come mid terms .. the cry babies will cry .. wondering what hit them .. so extreme and off the farm that a vote for the extremist Religious right anti abort nutters and their theocratic totalitarianism looks better than Blue...

    What a disgusting joke this party has become .. will be lucky to not have Trump at the helm in 2024 - despite Red doing everything in its power to shoot own feet off .. putting Red Kryptonite Abortion front and center -- and then watch the cry babies cry

    What planet are you on?

    Trump is on tape calling for 10,000 - 20,000 cops at the Capitol that day.

    Do you think the democrats are going to play that tape?

    Not likely. Unless you'll accept his Truth posts as testimony.

    I don't see Meadows or any others who share Hutchinson's first-hand knowledge trying to refute her account under oath.

    Steve Bannon is seeking the Department of Justice (DOJ) to hand over records explaining why former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and ex-Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Scavino escaped prosecution for not fully complying with their congressional subpoenas, whereas he was charged over similar offenses.

    I don't see Meadows dignifying this dog and pony show with his presence. And should he be forced to I would advise him to take the Fifth like Flynn did.

    Self-incrimination is a definite risk, I agree.

    No one willing to refute, under oath, Hutchinson's sworn testimony speaks for itself.


    After Trump’s speech at the Ellipse that day, he lunged at a Secret Service agent who refused to take him to the Capitol, Hutchinson testified. Hutchinson was told of the incident by Anthony Ornato, a senior Secret Service official, minutes after it happened in the presence of the agent Trump allegedly attacked, who appeared to be shaken up, she testified...

    The agent in question, Robert Engel... could he be called again and forced to testify about this specific incident. Can a Secret Service agent be subpoenaed?

    Well, there’s precedent. In 1998, several agents protecting President Bill Clinton were compelled to testify before a grand jury about the president’s affair with a young intern as he was being investigated by independent counsel Kenneth W. Starr.

    Even if agents did testify nothing about the testimony given today indicts Trump of a crime. It certainly didn't tie him to the actions of a bunch of idiots.

    So nobody could testify that she's not lying?[
