Insurrection Hearings 6/28 and beyond

This is more deflection. No one is denying that he wanted to go to the Capitol, that he was unaware of the violence and rioting that was underway or, most importantly, that he planned the whole thing and was aware it was illegal.

Whether he was actually able to reach the steering wheel seems besides the point.

The fact that trumpkins have really taken after only further convinces me of her accuracy.

General Flynn: "Fifth."

That's terrifying.

Always remember that his brother was the Army Chief of Operations, was one of the people that orevented the DC Nat Guard from being deployed (a fact that the DOD lied about), and was given a promotion. All of this was in the timeframe in question.

He's currenty in charge of Pacific Command.

Being related to a treason-weasel isn't a crime. I haven't seen anything to suggest that the brother is loony, only Flynn. And he's been a loon for a long time.

Except the Flynn brother significantly delayed troop support to the Capitol Police. It's not a stretch to believe that he was in on the coup and wanted the rioters to succeed.

No. We can agree to disagree but I believe that was the right call. The insurrectionists were handled very well by the Capitol Police and by MPD. The National Guard and other troops were not needed and should not have been called there.

The Marines station at the Marine Corps Barracks at 8th and I should have been called out and put under the Capitol police command. Flynn and his brother are with Trump and the GOP.

Marines weren't under Flynn2's command. DC National Guard also technically wasn't but practically were. The 3rd Infantry, Old Guard, is who should have defended America and the Constitution on that day. They were definitely under Flynn2's watch.

Why didn’t they call out the USMC Band and Drum & Bugle Corps?

They survived Parris Island. Did you?

Here's what she said she was told:

" The president reached up towards the front of the vehicle to grab at the steering wheel. Mr. Engel grabbed his arm, said, sir, you need to take your hand off the steering wheel.

We're going back to the West Wing. We're not going to the Capitol. Mr. Trump then used his free hand to lunge towards Bobby Engel. And Mr. -- when Mr. Ornato had recounted this story to me, he had motioned towards his clavicles."

So it’s gossip?

Those words are VERY CAREFULLY parsed.
She was not there, so she’s being very careful. All she swore to is that she was told Trump had * reached* for the wheel and *lunged* towards Engel.

If the media want to interpret that to mean Trump grabbed the wheel and Engel, that IS NOT ON THE WITNESS.

https://www.politico.com/news/2022/06/08/trump-raised-jan-6-capitol-appearance-secret-service-agent-select-panel-00038217

And said he and Trump disagreed on whether they should go to the Capitol after the speech.

Seems unlikely the committee would have had her tell that crazy-sounding tale if they didn't have corroboration from some other source.

That Politico article said that Trump rode back in the Beast.

I'm so confused. Was he in the Beast? Or another vehicle? What can I believe?

Video and photos show he was in an SUV. I don't know if that is technically also The Beast but these days that's shorthand for the car the prez is in.

Whatever plane the President is in is Air Force One. Whatever car the President is in is the Beast.

She was relaying what she was told.

Both Engel and Ornato have also already testified to the committee, fwiw, and Hutchison's testimony today didn't contradict that.

^ I assume the SS will conform that Trump “reached” and was irate.


Which is fine. The important point being - he really tried to go to the Capitol, presumably to oversee his coup.

In the way telling a coworker your boss just tried to assault a colleague is gossip, sure

That’s interesting since she told the Daily Caller she couldn’t wait to testify.
“I can’t wait to clear up misconceptions. I look forward to talking to them,” Thomas told the Daily Caller.
