Jan. 6 Panel Reportedly Planning Dramatic Presentations On Trumpworld’s Big Lie Actions For 2022

The Jan. 6 Committee is reportedly set to hold more public hearings in the new year as it works to deliver an interim report on the events surrounding the deadly Capitol insurrection by summer, according to the Washington Post.

Good. Glad to hear it.

But let’s be absolutely sure that there isn’t one questionable period or comma in that set of presentations. Let’s not forget the kerfluffle that took place when Schiff moved something in Jordan’s text message that Gym insisted was ‘tampering’.

Fact Check: Did Adam Schiff ‘Tamper’ With Jim Jordan Jan. 6 Evidence in Meadows Hearing? (newsweek.com)

Of course, it had nothing to do with anything, but just keep everything clean, above aboard and untampered with at any level.

In other words, don’t give the opposition any chance at dismissing the information presented because… reasons. Facts of the case. Nothing more.

Jack Webb rode to fame on it:

Just the Facts, Maam…

I’d be happier with fewer concepts of ‘dramatic’ presentations. The story doesn’t need any embellishment. We all saw it. We’re seeing the receipts. We’re seeing the text messages. We’re seeing the footage.

I’m not sure how much more dramatic it can get, frankly. Stay tuned…

“I think that Trump and his team have done a pretty masterful job of exploiting millions of Americans,” one of the senior committee aides told the Post. “How do you get that many people screwed up that deeply? And continue to screw them up? Right? And what do we do about that? So there are some big, big-picture items that go well beyond the events of [Jan. 6] that the committee is also grappling with.”

Hopefully Fox will be nationally exposed for the accomplices to the coup that they are.

Point well taken. Show Biz is, in fact, just one of the things Trump has brought to “politics”.

Show Biz, merchandizing , monetizing, gimmicks, stooges, minions, graft, norm-destruction** and corruption

**the types of norms (mores) which previously allowed far more cooperation and non-malingnant interrelations than we ever guessed…

I just don’t want to see presentation overtake content. The content is the important thing here and it cannot, cannot, cannot be screwed up in any way, shape or form.

The committee has enough of a haul with trying to break through all the noise of ‘delegitimization’ of the committee’s work. The last thing they need is something that is off, but critical to the case, by any degree, no matter how infinitesimal it might be. Give the GQP nothing to seize on but their own butts.

Neither Faux News nor OANN will televise it, though.

Right now the RW is on the ropes. They’ve got nothing and it shows. Dragging that Jared fool for the cameras is pathetic. The insurrectionists are turning snitch, fighting each other to get the best deal. The GOP have shown themselves to be at the very least unfit to hold office nut jobs with dreams of genocide. Stay tuned.

DraMAtic PresentatIONS? JAN 6 improv PLAYers? cannot wait!

I’m sorry, but you have altered everything here. Leaving out the apostrophe in “ma’am” changes everything!!! Your statement is now questionable and we have no reason to accept it.

That’s not gonna happen. It does not matter how the information is presented or how perfectly it’s laid out, the opposition will simply lie and say this or that isn’t true. Or that something-something was distorted, manipulated, or misrepresented to make them look bad. That’s just what they do. We can never expect the opposition to just accept the truth. That’s why it’s more important that Dems are prepared to respond forcefully when they do lie about their findings. The Dems are more than capable of going on offense and playing attack dog. They just need to do it and never let up.
