Slowly they turn. Step by step. Inch by inch. Then BAM!
I'll believe that when I see it.
What I think the Democrats are really up to is they want to ding Trump up with these hearings so he will lose against Biden (or whoever else) in 2024.
But Liz Cheney? She wants Trump in jail. She might not even mind getting that Pence scaffold out of the evidence room for Trump. You can tell this is not only never-Trump politics with her but that she does not take someone sending a death squad after her very lightly.
At the end of the day all these roads lead to Merrick Garland and all Merrick Garland needs to do in order to prove me wrong is his job.
And while doing this, Cheney and the committee are providing under-oath testimony from highly connected Republicans who have put their political careers on the line.
I personally do not care what motives are behind these hearings. What I care about is what these witnesses offer for consideration. This is better information by far than we get from the media.
It puts the Mueller report to shame. If only the Mueller investigation had the fire this congressional hearing does.
However, I am still not so sure what the endgame is. I say this for more than one reason. I live in NYC and our DA, Alvin Bragg, inexplicably shut down his office's investigation into Trump. He's an elected official so he inherited the investigation and then he basically shut it down. I don't know who is doing things behind the scenes, but somebody is.
The problem with that is while the democrats are going after Trump (yet again with nothing but conspiracy theories and hurt feelings) they are neglecting the rest of the country. Much of the country could care less about Trump as they are focused on trying to figure out how to put food on the table and fill their gas tanks.
Bizarre denial of reality.
We hear you, loud and clear...
The Jan 6 hearing have absolutely nothing to do with justice. They are just another lynching like the Democrats performed on people they didn't like in the south right after the Civil War.
Nice example of whining and making shit up...
You don't care for the truth do you?
That is all the left has been doing since November 2016. Whining and making shit up.
Excellent.
As a member of "the rest of the country", I prefer their attention to be focused elsewhere.
But to be more accurate you clearly meant "They are just another lynching like the white racist religious conservative Democrats performed on people they didn't like in the south right after the Civil War". You would have to be a completely brain damaged half wit or a slimy lying two faced snake to believe that the white racist religious conservative Democrats of a century ago resemble the modern liberal progressive Democratic party of today in any way. Everyone with more than half a brain know that the white racist religious conservatives in the South didn't all die off or vanish without a trace. Many of those older folks including some of my aunts and uncles and their friends I've talked to in Arkansas claim they didn't abandon the Democratic party, the Democratic party abandoned them when the majority of Democrats passed the civil rights act and voting rights act and a Democratic President signed them into law. That was the beginning of the end for the old white racist confederate flag waving religious conservative wing of the Democratic party in the South. Of course its no mystery where all those old white racist religious conservatives fled politically, you only have to ask the confederate flag waving religious conservatives in the South today which party they support and it certainly isn't the modern liberal progressive Democratic party of today.
Just curious, do you really think anyone other than blind or brain damaged right wing conservatives would take your hilariously flawed opinion seriously?
As do I. But we both know that will never happen. They are too entrenched in the idiocy of beating a dead horse that any action other than that will only expose themselves to their failures.
They never seem to run out of reasons to raise my taxes.
Was he in the vehicle? Just in the motorcade you say? Summbitch has great vision and hearing..........oh and BTFW, one small paragraph attributed to this "blockbuster" and the rest just a rehash of the California Raisins' "I Heard it Through the Grapevine".
Ever heard of radio traffic?
The cops had access to the Secret Service communications in real time.
So they had their mics keyed up the whole time? Bullshit. Good try but still bullshit. Find a place in the article where that is used to prove what he is saying. I'll wait.................................
Again, so the fuck what?
So what if Trump was "enraged" with the Secret Service detail? Is that against the law? If so please state that statute Garland will prosecute that under?
Trump wanted to go Capitol; but he didn't- did he. Democrats have nothing but bullshit and speculation about Trump would or would not have done at the Capitol. Would he have stopped the riot from entering Congress? Would he have joined in and strode into the Congressional halls bolstering the rioters to actually do something- like finding and taking congress hostage?
The shear amount of stupidity from TDS driven idiots panting breathlessly over each non illegal act by Trump is sickening.
"Trump smash China plates!"; "Trump threw ketchup against the wall!"; "Trump was irate and mean to those around him!"; "Trump threw childish tantrums".
If those are prosecutable offenses what do you call threatening Supreme Court Justices (Pelosi, Schumer, and a host of other Democrats)? What do you call abandoning US citizens in Afghanistan- and then simply forgetting about them? What do you call not enforcing US border and immigration laws?
Wake us when the fucking Pelosi hand picked partisan TDS driven puppets actually release some real damn evidence!
Until then this is just a shit show for TDS idiots that can't get Trump out of their heads.
THAT RIGHT THERE.
Only truly sad deplorables with their heads stuffed up dirty Donald's ass wouldn't find the "childish tantrums" as a disqualifier for President of the United States.
While the tantrums and plate throwing may not be crimes unless he threw the dishes at someone, the scuffle with the secret service does go to prove two things. First, that those who reported the incident were in fact telling the truth which adds to their credibility about other things which may indeed turn out to be crimes. And second, it shows Trumps intent on that day to go himself to the Capital to continue inciting the armed crowd to do his bidding, break into the Capital and illegally stop the certification.
And you would know this how? How do you know he didn't want to go there to calm things down. And here I never knew you were psychic. If course there is not much difference between psychic and psychotic.
Explain then why Trump did not take any action for several hours. He did not need to be at the Capitol to calm down supporters. He was the PotUS who could call a press conference in an instant and directly communicate with his supporters.
It is pathetic observing people still attempting to defend the indefensible.
Jan 6th investigation is very important, it was an insurrection plain and simple. What/when/who/how/where needs to be brought to light and those responsible prosecuted.
That said I think Americans are getting very tired of political aspects of constant investigations. Republicans went after Hillary for Benghazi for years, still are in fact. Democrats started with Russian collusion, Republicans want Hunter investigated, said if they regain control of Congress will look into impeaching Biden as pay back for Trump impeachments.
Unfortunately, the pattern has been set and these types of investigations will be a part of every Congress from now on regardless of party in control.
It's not an "investigation". An investigation looks for facts. This hasn't looked for or presented any fact and is running solely on hurt feelings. All we've really seen are hearsay at best. If it's supposed to be viewed as a hearing then we would hear from both sides. We aren't seeing any cross examination.
It's only to the left and Democrats as it distracts from the failures of the Human Fuck Up in the WH and his dumpster fire administration.
"At the end of the day all these roads lead to Merrick Garland and all Merrick Garland needs to do in order to prove me wrong is his job."
If this media circus had any credibility, Garland would be investigating it right now. It's all a partisan political stunt to discredit and get rid of Trump....and I hope it succeeds!
As does DeSantis and any other GoP 2024 hopeful. They relish the idea of keeping their hands clean.
