House Passes 1/6 Commission

Well at least Luttig pointed out that Trump, his allies and supporters are a clear and present danger to American democracy.

DOJ is asking the committee for testimony.

DOJ asks Jan. 6 committee for transcripts of witness depositions (axios.com)

Seems the sleeper has awakened.

Pain amplifier, the sleeper... did you just rewatch Dune or something?

 

[HurleyBird]

I actually wish the crowd saw Pence. They would have charged and SS would have fired into the crowd.

wtf is wrong with you?

 

[HomerJS]

Haha. Pence now has a nickname. Trump called him a pussy

 

[dank69]

wtf is wrong with you?

We're sick of you people not holding Republicans accountable for their actions. Keep it up, see where we end up.

So, @blackangst1 have anything to say for yourself??

He doesn't like traitors that try to violently overthrow Democracy? What a terrible position.

Clearly you don't mind a violent overthrow of Democracy. You are as good as those folks that day assaulting the Capitol

In a just world he'd be hung.

In a just world he'd be hung.

Firing squad

 

[Zorba]

Considering he requested a pardon he appears to be concerned that he may be.

Too bad Democrats are complete pussies and are going to let right wing crazies just take over. Wouldn't want Tucker Carlson to claim they are being partisan.

Maybe we would've had far fewer corrupt presidents and staff if we would've started jailing the corrupt ones 150 years ago.

 

[Zorba]

Didn't get to watch the hearings. That's Mike Pence l, I assume talking with national security team, while watching shit unfold on Twitter and seeing people with a gallows chanting "hang Mike Pence"?

And the "safe, undisclosed location" was a loading dock?

 

[Zorba]

wtf is wrong with you?

So you think it's okay for a bunch of angry rednecks to murder the VP?

Could she really be this stupid?

Ginni Thomas the traitor wants to talk to the committee?

It's a hallmark of dumb people that they think they're smarter than everyone else.

Actually, I would bet real money that Mike Pence WOULD GLADLY vote for Trump in 2024 if given the chance, AND... I would bet that Pence WOULD ACCEPT the position of Trump's VP for 2024 if so offered by Trump. Do not feel sorry for Mike Pence, he was an asshole from the very beginning and he still is.

Thing is, Donald had better stop destroying those around him who have come to their senses to rebuke Trump yet still display loyalty to Trump. Eventually, Trump will have no one left to pick on. Even those new ass kissing Trump guys and gals running in the 2022 midterms who Trump has endorsed, even they could turn on Trump once elected. How does Trump know?
People kiss other peoples asses every day to gain an advantage, but once that advantage has been achieved then where is the obligation to continue the ass kissing?

Some of these morons that Trump has endorsed just might turn on the old orange bastard once the morons achieve what they seek. All it does is make Donald Trump a meaner more spiteful, revengeful big fat loser.

She only wants to convince the committee that the election was stolen, and the insurrection was justified. You know how those Q's are.... they always insist that they are right and their opinion is the only opinion.
You can't argue with these people nor expect any of them to experience a change of heart let alone a moment of sanity.

 

[zinfamous]

Seeing as we don't have a Trump attempts at election fraud thread, I will put this here as is applies.

Hopefully, another Trump loving lawyer bites the dust...

Trumper leading Wisconsin election “audit” could lose law license after “full-on meltdown” in court | Salon.com

"At Friday's hearing, Gableman threw a 'tantrum,' as Remington described it," wrote Stern. "Gableman refused to answer questions, instead accusing the judge of acting 'as an advocate' for American Oversight. He then gestured toward the bailiff and 'taunted' the court by saying: 'I see you have a jail officer here. You want to put me in jail, Judge Remington? I'm not gonna be railroaded.' With a 'raised voice,' 'accusatory tone,' and 'twisted facial expression,' Gableman 'pointed and shook his finger at the judge' while accusing him of engaging in a 'fishing expedition.' (The ex-justice did not, it seems, see the irony in this accusation.)"

a "jail officer?"

Was that guy ever a lawyer, really....has he ever been in a court? Has he ever seen a single dramatized or real TV episode of what a court looks like? The fuck do these people come from? Seriously, where do these pieces of shit come from that Trump was able to drag them out into public and pollute our society?

 

[zinfamous]

wtf is wrong with you?

did you see those treasonous bastards trying to kill capital police blocking them from attacking the US capital, as the rioters tried to force their way in and murder Congress-people?

Did you not see them do that? That is exactly what they did. I wonder if you don't believe the things you see, because Trump told you not to.

I'm not sure why you don't think that violent insurrectionists shouldn't be put down in defense of the United States, when their goal is very explicitly to end the United States. I'm curious why you think that wouldn't be appropriate. ....maybe you actually don't believe that the 2nd amendment exists to "protect the people of the United States from tyrants."

Hmm, maybe you and I can work together on proposing a bill for an amendment to repeal the 2nd, because you seem to think it is completely unnecessary.

Remember in their minds, the true tyranny is having a democratic president, especially if that president isn't white.

 

[Pens1566]

Yeah, I'd have been fine if more of the rioters had been shot once violence escalated and/or they got close to the members of congress. "Good guy with a gun" and all that ...

All joking aside, it would have been justified in multiple instances that we've all seen on video. And it probably should have started OUTSIDE when they were beating officers with poles/flags/bike racks and dragging them into the crowd to be beaten further. We've got a huge problem with too much "fuck around" and not enough "find out".

Yeah she’s stupid. But is Clarence even more stupid to not stop her from getting both of them into trouble?

I mean, she was basically right about everything. All along.

But she has a vagina. And her emails.
