*****January 6th committee public hearings thread*****UPDATE: Transcripts released

Anyone else remember back to November and December of 2020, and January 1st to the 5th in which HROT Republicans told Libs like me that this was a tempest in a teapot, and Trump was just making noise, and he didn't have any legal standing, and this would all be over in a few days? Well, it ran deep, and God help us all if just one of those states targeted by Team Trump had decided to throw the alternate slate to the Congress, or decided there needed to be a review, or they'd magically decided that they could decertify the results of the election, and thrown it into the courts. Trump just needed a few more days. He just needed a few people to go along with his insane plotting.
We were inches away from a coup.
 
Meadows is one of the few people that Trump hasn't turned on, or just discarded. The more we learn doubt the insurrection, the more it becomes obvious why Trump has kept him on the payroll. Trump doesn't want Meadows talking.
Draw up a treasure map for this investigation and I believe you would see that the path to the trasure chest of incriiminating evidence leads to Meadows. Not only for the gold nuggets of direct first-hand conversations with Trump but also for all various communications that was channeled to and from Trump through him. Cipollone would also be a valuable resource.

Yep was here declaring a coup was in the works then.

Inches away from a "successful" coup.
 
Maybe the most damaging was the Orange Turd's conversation with Rathensberger in which told him 'his actions were criminal'. This is threatening an election official. Combine this with instructing Rathensberger to find additional votes, or alter the tally, and this is egregious interference by the president in a state's election process.

The electoral plot was described in the hearings so far and I would be surprised if further details involving individuals and organizations are not forthcoming.
 
Which is fine with me.

I don't support tossing the filibuster.

I didn't support the size of BBB. Supported elements....not the entirety.

I don't support packing the Supreme court.

I don't support forgiving student debt.

D's have been pretty transparent in what they want to do if they get a couple more seats in the Senate and still control the House....and I'm not onboard. Sorry.

Split government sounds good to me....
The SC got packed by Republicans and it is doing massive damage to the country.

Evidence to be presented on Thursday highlghting the White House's post-election pressure on the Department of Justice, especially the heavy-handed manuevering to position Trump lackey Jeffrey Clark at the very top, should be some of the most disturbing revelations to date.

As we have seen in other facets of the effort to overturn the election results, there were just enough principled Republicans holding key positions who resisted Trump's onslaught or events could have turned out differently.
 
I emailed Chuck to ask why he was going to replace Pence. Haven't heard back. In the past, I at least received a canned response to inquiries.
Dear Constituent,

Thank you for your interest in this matter. Senator Grassley remains committed to fighting socialism, CRT, Mexican caravans, Hunter Biden and is amazingly vigorous. He totally isn’t 88

Signed,

Some Intern.
