Cheney was basically giving a prosecutor’s opening statement. She has five more televised hearings to prove her hypothesis. From why I’ve read in Proud Boys social media and texts this was very much planned. They were confronting police at the Capitol before Trump even finished his speech. The Capitol is a 30 minute walk from the Washington Monument. This was planned.

+1 I have been following all of this very closely from the beginning and one of a few new things I learned last night was that some of these goons didn’t even attend the rally - they went straight to the Capitol.

If you listen again she didn't say that. She said, "I accepted what he said was saying," Not, "I accepted what he said was true."

Ivanka is good at remaining so vague that people ascribe their own beliefs about her. John Oliver had a great segment on her a few years ago.

Do you remember that Ginni Thomas announced a few months ago that she had been at the event but left early “because she was cold?” I said she was getting ahead of something that was coming. This may be it. Great way to explain phone calls.

Not really relevant but wow, what a filter!

Aren't the networks legally required to give the Republicans equal prime time?

Thanks to Reagan, no. And thanks to the punk GOP who didn’t take the committee seriously, no.

But mostly - you’re an American first, Republican second. This was a seditious attack on your country. Why do you need “equal prime time”?

No. That ended when Reagan threw out the Fairness Doctrine. And beyond that, the Republicans have had every chance to give their "side" of the story but they've refused to participate. Frankly, there's no defense and they know it, which i is why they'd rather deflect and talk about non-existent voter fraud, which as Barr and others have testified, is simply a load of BS.

I tried watching, but it was super boring. Rehash of the same stuff. "Trump said innaccurate and dangerous stuff!" Yeah, I know, but why are we going back over this? He's gone. He's not even in public life anymore. He is banned from everything. Even pinterest.

Not in public life anymore? Are you living under a rock? He’s the most powerful person in the Republican Party and will almost certainly be their 2024 candidate. The current crop of candidates are all groveling at his knee to get his endorsement and trying to outgun one another to prove who is more loyal to him.

+1. This argument that Trump doesn't matter anymore is just bizarre. He is actively plotting to do it again, with the assistance of the whole republican party.

This applies only to candidates for political office and has a multitude of exceptions.

I think what we have in the trolly posters is a lot of Republicans who grasp what their party is and feel bad about it, but not bad enough to stop voting. Hence the childish lashing out that “Trump doesn’t matter.”

I want to know if the Trump WH was coordinating with Supreme Court justices. If the committee has evidence of that, it’s going to be a seismic meltdown.

Meaning what? I'm nervous that nothing will come of these hearings. AND that Trump will win in 2024
