And a lot of people thought Nixon shouldn't have resigned and/or faced impeachment, either. Afterall, it wasn't his fault his fellow Republicans in the WH finked on him...Originally Posted by Mel Maki
And a lot of people think the Dems on the committee are wrong and that Trump did not come close to overturning the results.

"I have no idea what Mel was getting at above,"Originally Posted by Jim MoscheckI have no idea what Mel was getting at above, but we were way off topic.
Today the Jan. 6th Committee held its seventh public hearing. You might just hear about some of it. Cipilone's testimony was damning and there was a crazy "Star Wars Cantina" meeting on Dec 18th when Trump met with a group of outside allies and advisers at the White House, including Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Michael Flynn and Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne. White House aides and advisors arrived later and were alarmed by the allies Trump had invited to the White House. Sidney Powell testified, "I bet Pat Cipollone set a new land speed record" to get to the Oval Office, referring to the White House counsel.
The committee showed a text from Cassidy Hutchinson, who was an aide to Trump White House chief of staff Mark Meadows about the meeting, that read, "the west wing is UNHINGED."
Later that night after 1am Trump tweeted “Big protest in D.C. on January 6th. Be there, will be wild!”
Even more troubling for old Donny:
"In closing remarks, Cheney revealed Trump himself attempted to call a witness to the select committee's investigation, and the panel turned over the information to the Department of Justice.
"After our last hearing, President Trump tried to call a witness in our investigation, a witness you have not yet seen in these hearings," Cheney said. "That person declined to answer or respond to President Trump's call and instead alerted their lawyer to the call. Their lawyer alerted us and this committee has supplied that information to the Department of Justice."
She continued: "Let me say one more time; We will take any effort to influence testimony very seriously."
Uh oh. I heard a lawyer on TV who said it was an open and shut case of witness tampering.

It takes low IQ to fail to comprehend a commonly used expression of "looking for (fill in the blank) under one's bed."Originally Posted by Mel Maki
It takes low IQ to equate discussion of this poorly enforced border with looking for illegals under one's bed.

"If you’re innocent, why are you taking the Fifth Amendment,” Trump said"Originally Posted by Richard Davis
He's probably confused about the 5th amendment as well. If one doesn't want to testify on the grounds that it might incriminate oneself, then it must be that they are guilty, unless of course it is one of their leftist politicians.
Then it is perfectly acceptable.
The Rub is that this is all hearsay as well, regarding asking for a pardon.
But we can go back to the fact that they think Hearsay is better than direct testimony, but only depending on who is engaging in Hearsay.
If it is a Dem claiming the words of a Repub, then it is accurate.
If it is a Repub claiming the words of a Dem, then it is hearsay.

Bill Maher on Judge SecurityPosted By Rod Kaufman |
Gee, I read plenty of coverage about it on CNN and now I see a Fox news story today about how the "liberal media" didn't cover it! What a crock! I was just checking the Fox news site to see what they covered on today's January 6 commission meeting and couldn't find a thing...Originally Posted by Mel MakiMaher blasted NYT for not giving arrest of man with bad intentions in front of judge's home more publicity. Claims coverage would have been very different if it was a liberal judge's home. I'll bet my money he is right.
Bill Maher on Judge SecurityPosted By Rod Kaufman |
I saw that Mel but my point is the story has been covered quite well in the media. But now that the right wing media has some read meat thrown to it by Maher, who said what he said about it in about 20 seconds, it's been on virtually every right wing site you can name as if it's front page news and proof that the NYT is BAD...Originally Posted by Mel Maki

The Dems didn't write about this. It was widely reported in the news. I chose a citation from BBC in my initial post. Here's one from Fox:Originally Posted by Mel Maki
It is becoming more and more difficult for Dems to find things to write about. They needed to beat the bushes a bit for this one.

What about half the people polled just the other day who believe Democracy is dying in America?Originally Posted by Mel Maki
The party is in quicksand so far with no bottom. None of this will stop the sinking. A lot of Dems feel better complaining that Trump is a racist but will these topics even slow the sinking? I don''t see how.
Trump a birther.
Tweets racism.
Attacked non-whites in sports.
Tropes and dog whistle pandering.
Asked for 1-6 help from supremacist groups.
These are missing mainstream people by a country mile.
