Have they charged Trump yet? It's amazing how long this is all taking, are they waiting for him to die of old age first? Do we know if Trump pardoned himself when he was Prez yet?

Wheels of justice turn slow. Especially if you are going after an ex-prez.

Especially when ya want to subtlety time things for maximum impact on the November election and figure Donald running around loose might keep fascists and traitors to the constitution out of power. Spook Donald and he will announce his run for POTUS before the election and fight 2020 all over again. The republicans need to spin some serious current issues, not spout the big lie as everything goes down in flames around them. Abortion is an issue that was past it's best before date, but inertia and filling the party with lunatics in the statehouses and base are driving their agenda now.

I'm looking for rational motives by smart rational people to explain events, it might sound a bit conspiratorial and is, but I figure it is the simplest explanation that fits the facts thus far. Joe, Pelosi and others are working to keep the republicans out of power and they have a strategy to do it that revolves around timing Donald's demise. The J6 panel did take some time to get rolling and it will issue it's bombshells and reports during election season. The SCOTUS decision on abortion is icing on the cake for the democrats, because the polls for the house are still pretty bleak. There is 4 months to change that however, with these hearings and indictments dropping, along with a hopefully massive democratic ground game in all 50 by pissed off women.

Glenn Kirschner is Back to Talk the DOJ
17,329 views Jul 15, 2022 Glenn Kirschner is back to talk about why the DOJ has not made any movements. This comes after the damming evidence that has been presented during the January 6th hearings. The evidence includes the deletion of secret service messages.

Right, because you're totally not rude

Also, why do you capitalize "liberals"?

Deleted Secret Service texts to be sent to Jan. 6 committee by Tuesday: Lofgren
Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.), a member of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, said Sunday that deleted Secret Service texts sent the day before and day of the insurrection will be turned over to the panel by Tuesday.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) alleges that messages from Jan. 5 and Jan. 6, 2021 were erased as part of a planned system migration.

“You can imagine how shocked we were to get the letter from the [DHS] Inspector General saying that he had been trying to get this information and that they had, in fact, been deleted after he’d asked for them,” Lofgren told Martha Raddatz on ABC’s “This Week.”

“I was shocked to hear that they didn’t back up their data before they re-set their iPhones,” the congresswoman added. “That’s crazy. I don’t know why that would be.”

The exact relevance of the Jan. 5 and Jan. 6 texts are unknown, Lofgren said. Initially, officials assured the panel that the erasure included no messages related to the Jan. 6 attacks, but another spokesperson said that some messages were pertinent.

“We need all the texts,” Lofgren said, in order “to get the full picture.”

The committee subpoenaed the Secret Service for the deleted messages Friday and will likely receive the documents Tuesday. A Secret Service spokesperson said the agency has turned 800,000 records over the the committee, the Hill reported last week.

The texts could factor into the committee’s eighth public hearing when it reconvenes on Thursday.

“We hope to go through minute by minute what happened, what didn’t happen on that day, and people can make their own judgment,” Lofgren said of the panel’s plans.

Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) said on Sunday said it would be “quite crazy” if the Secret Service did in fact delete the text messages, adding the circumstances of the missing messages remain to be seen.

“We’re going to know more Tuesday,” he told CBS “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan.

Steve Bannon's Trial to begin: he promises to go "medieval"; he's more likely to go out w/a whimper

34,158 views Jul 17, 2022 Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon's criminal trial for contempt of Congress is set to begin Monday morning in federal district court in Washington, DC. Banon has made bold predictions like that his case will be "the misdemeanor from hell for the Biden administration" and indicating that he will "go medieval" during his trial.

I was in that same courthouse in November 2019, when prosecutors figuratively dragged Steve Bannon to the witness stand by the scruff of his neck and forced him to testify against his criminal associate Roger Stone. Bannon's performance in court at that time was weak and pathetic. If past is prologue, Bannon is far more likely to go out with a whimper than with a bang.

This video presents a preview of what we can expect from Bannon's trial.

I hope the give Steve a full two years and send him to the slammer ASAP! THen we know where to find him when his Conspiracy trail starts. Then we can give him the 20 to Life at hard labor he deserves for being such a traitorous asshole!

Well, his millions of fans don't care that he watched the mob he gathered and incited attacking the capitol on TV in glee. He arranged for there to be no security response and he refused pleas to provide assistance as was his duty. All the other leadership in the country was in the capitol building, the vice president, speaker of the house and the congress, if the mob managed to kill them all, the only remaining government in America would be Trump himself.

So yeah, it's a serious fucking matter and people should be literally hung for it, no free passes on this one. Remember Chuck Grassley was in on it too and was prepared to do Trump's bidding, as Pence was hung on the capitol lawn, or driven from the capitol, whatever worked.

Rep. Adam Kinzinger said the January 6 committee has 'filled in the blanks' on Trump's actions that day and that he mostly 'gleefully' watched TV

• The next January 6 hearing on July 21 will focus on Trump's actions during the attack.
• Rep. Adam Kinzinger said Sunday the committee found Trump mostly watched TV.
• Questions about Trump's actions have been one focus of the House committee's investigation.

Three of the people meeting with Trump in that crazy meeting at the WH in December 2020 18th and 19th were possible Russian agents: Mike Flynn, Patrick Byrne (who had that Russian girl friend) and Rudy (Ukraine). The republican party, Trump and their voters are a bunch of fucking traitors. If Joe has 3 possible Russian agents in the WH for a meeting, it would be a major scandal, with Trump, treason was just another day at the office. Next time Putin will nuke you for it, but I suppose you'd be too fucking stupid to live anyway.

This shit gives your allies a lot of fucking confidence in America! Nobody bugged these guys or treated them like military or government employees, or just regular citizens, they were too big to fail. This shit did not start with Trump, these assholes have been getting away with this shit for a long time, with senate and NRA visits to Moscow and the NRA distributing cash to republicans from Russia. Like I said, the next time Putin gets the drop on you he will nuke you. I figure the only thing that would stop him would be American nuclear subs nuking him back, without presidential orders.

Your NATO allies nuking him back would also be a deterrence, it would be unlikely their governments would be riddled with traitors too. Unless you pulled out of NATO too and were left on your own with about 20% CONTROL OVER THE GLOBAL ECONOMY.

"So in this tiny meeting in the Oval Office where options to upend US democracy were advanced to the President of the United States, there were not one, not two, but three people directly linked to sanctioned and convicted agents of the Russian government," Strzok noted. "While I doubt Russia planned it, their efforts to gain access to Trump’s inner sanctum succeeded beyond their wildest dreams. And it demonstrates just how successful seemingly amateurish intelligence activity can be."

Did you expect a psychopath like Trump to foster an atmosphere of love and trust in the WH?

Olivia Troye: "It Was A Culture Of Fear In The White House”
3,317 views Jul 18, 2022 Just days before the next public January 6th hearing, the panel is ready to focus in on the 187 minutes that Donald Trump did nothing to stop the insurrection from happening. Former top aide to then-Vice President Mike Pence, Olivia Troye joins Sam Stein to explain how the culture of fear and intimidation in Trump’s White House could have belittled witnesses who are coming forward with the truth, but they aren’t letting it silence them.

Mike has been talking to the FBI and a grand jury too...

Fingered: Meet the notorious Trump operative who delivered the false elector lists



"Mike Roman, then Trump’s 2020 director of Election Day operations, delivered those false elector certificates — signed by pro-Trump activists in Michigan and Wisconsin — to Rep. Mike Kelly’s (R-PA) chief of staff at the time, both people told Politico,"

Roman was subpoenaed in February by the House Select Committee Investigating the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol.

"The origin of the false elector lists, which never got to Pence before he presided over certification of Joe Biden’s victory on Jan. 6, has become an enduring subplot in the select panel’s investigation of the Capitol attack designed to disrupt that day," Politico reported. "After the committee revealed the role of a top aide to Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) in the episode during a hearing last month, Johnson said the false elector lists came from Kelly — who has repeatedly denied any involvement by his office in their distribution."

Kelly chief of staff Matt Stroia was reportedly the intermediary.

The Trump White House did not announce Roman's hiring.

"Mike Roman, a longtime Republican opposition researcher who worked for billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch before joining the Trump campaign, is now the White House’s director of special projects and research," ProPublica reported in May of 2017. "He is one of a half-dozen unannounced hires the White House has made since President Trump took office. Roman, who led the Kochs’ surveillance and intelligence-gathering unit before it was disbanded in April 2016, is best known for promoting a video showing members of the New Black Panthers allegedly intimidating voters outside a Philadelphia polling place in 2008."

They need to hurry up, do something, fucking anything besides sending me another fundraising email/text.

Arrest anyone from the false electors plot. Pick a minor player.

Remember when the retort to "lock her up" was that if she was guilty of 5% of the claims...why isn't she in jail. Shoes on the other foot.

If Stevo wants to go Medieval fine, when he is found guilty break him on the wheel and hang him from a gibbet! Or just burn him at the stake as a witch, with a 6/9 majority on the SCOTUS!

Bannon Threatens To Go 'Medieval' In Contempt Trial, Judge Clearly Doesn't Care
45,767 views Jul 18, 2022 Jury selection is set to begin on Monday in the trial of Steve Bannon, who faces criminal contempt of congress charges after refusing to cooperate with the Jan. 6 committee. Bannon, who experts say faces long odds, could see up to a year in jail for each of the two counts.
