A lot of things happened. Here are some of the things. This is TPM’s Morning Memo.
Ex-White House trade adviser Peter Navarro said on Monday that he received a grand jury subpoena from the FBI last week demanding records and testimony on the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection.
Who put out the memo commanding these criminals to “ask to see the evidence against them”? Gym Jordan, McCarthy, Navarro, et. al. are all using this delaying tactic.
He looks like a damn assistant principal from way back when, acts like one too, and he talks too damn much. I’m going to treat myself to mental images of bad trouble for him.

There is this obsession with Satanism with these people. This is a serious mental disorder. Why are we allowing subscribers to this nonsense to have any say in world affairs?
The one against Bannon has been enforced, I think his trial date is in July. AFAIK that’s the only one the DOJ has followed through on.
I’m not getting too worked up over that, because the 1/6 committee and DOJ are running parallel investigations. The reason the DOJ isn’t following through on referrals for contempt of Congress for guys like Meadows, could be that they’re getting cooperation where that might damage their investigation. The DOJ is quiet on what they’re working on, and that’s just the way it is.
The committee may have all the information it needs to tell the story from witnesses adjacent to the principal players and scads of documents, even if they don’t have direct testimony from them. At the end of 2021 they had already done 300 witness interviews and obtained over 35,000 documents. They’ll have even more information now.
