While many of the details — including the exact date the report will be released — are still unknown, committee members for the House select committee investigating Jan. 6 gave a few hints this week of what we can expect from the report.
“What To Expect From The Jan 6 Committee’s Long-Awaited Report”
Endless carping from unicorn posters that “Merrick The Meek!” hasn’t already arrested Trump?
(Oh – and frist!)
What do I expect?
Trump being marginalized and that affecting the GOP House.
To make the record complete, they should have one more televised hearing or broadcast that focuses on TFG’s (while he was still President) call to overturn the Constitution and reinstall him as Dictator.
Is there a video or is it only in audio?
It being the holiday season, I’m hoping for more of a “Christmas time” than “Mueller time” report. Since Barr the Door is no longer AG, we ought to get the actual full report (excluding classification redactions), not the bowlderized version.
Not really first or frist w/o animal pix. Please edit to remain frist.
Get your popcorn stockpile up to date.
Last! (But it won’t last.)
Regardless if Trump the person is marginalized, “Trumpism” will remain alive and well and probably in control of the Republican Party. In truth, while we may call it Trumpism, by decades it predates Trump and has been the most used path by Republicans to power.
That said, as Trump may still have power over a slice of the electorate, could be as low as 5% of all voters but likely more then 25% of all voters and more then 50% of Republican voters, to keep power the Republican Party including most elected officials will still bend to kiss Trump’s ring.
So Republican senators, congressman, governors to include all Republican state officials will have a choice, stick with Trump or lose power. Noting that Hershel Walker almost won last night, if he had been say a smidgen more coherent, let me just say I know what choice I am betting Republicans will make and it is not losing power.
I suppose there is one other choice, noting that sticking with Trump will cause Republicans to SLOWLY lose some power whereas rebuffing Trump will cause them to lose power much quicker, Trump could try and save the Republican Party by taking himself out while still supporting Republicans, but considering how out of character that would be for any megalomaniac let alone Trump, Republicans are left with the first 2 choices.
I welcome a full JAN 6 COMMITTEE report that spotlights the large cast of characters who broke the law and or betrayed their oath of office.
The DOJ does not need or especially want the Committee’s advice. DOJ wants data, information, evidence, i.e., the Committee’s files.
“Too bad” Pence refused to testify. No mention of the fact that the Committee refused to enforce its subpoenas. Congressional subpoenas are now optional.
