Ex-Impeachment Manager Rips GOP For Playing ‘Whac-a-Mole’ On Jan. 6 Commission | Talking Points Memo

“Oh, but that was SOOOO long ago! Six months or so! Who can possibly remember that far back? Heck, I can barely remember what I had for breakfast!”

Playing stupid on the stand has always been a good fallback.

WTF does McConnell have to do with holding a second vote on forming the Commission? He’s in the minority party. Why isn’t it solely up to Shumer the Senate Majority Leader?

At least Dan Crenshaw can testify that he is physically incapable of seeing anything happening on the right.

What would Mitch and Qevin do if Nancy appointed some Republicans to the committee? There must be at least one or two who are willing to dig into T****'s complicity.

Republicans will undoubtedly try to play the partisan card, because that’s all they have. But it’s important to keep in mind the vast majority of Americans remain appalled at what transpired on 1/6. Call them the relatively silent majority, if you will, but they recognize a line that should have never been crossed was crossed on that day.

Besides, it’s exceedingly difficult, even for Republicans, to claim the investigation is partisan when they themselves shot down a bipartisan investigation even after their every request was granted. They’ll try, of course, but they will fail.

And if they refused? Well that’s another sign that they don’t want to get to the bottom, or top of what happened on 01/06.

It is important to understand the nature of Trump’s Cult. Most of us are rightly couching our posts and arguments based on logic and reason.

Power is what the GOP is after.

Words are tools…and means to ends. If speaking by using only two-letter words would do the trick, McConnell, the GOP Senate Mob, RWNJ media and the rest of the Minions would be doing do it.

That’s where the video and audio evidence needs to be played several times during the testimony and the target asked as to whether that was him/her and did you say that?

It’s real tough to lie when the truth is being played several time in front of you and the cameras.

Any provision for the committee to be denied the re-play of this evidence must be swiftly and immediately slapped down - it’s all a matter of public record. Done.
