January 6 Hearing

Redstate, The Federalist, and Rumble. Those are all credible sources 🙄
Carmine, once again, proves that he is the dumbest of the dumb asses 😂

First of all, no one is buying this Pied Piper of Hamelin theory. BLM tried that with Umbrella Man as justification for their Minneapolis riots, and it was a stupid then as it is now with Ray "Fred" Epps. As our mommas used to say "if someone told you to jump off a bridge, would you?"

Second of all, the Oath-Keeps booted Epps in 2011 because of his alcohol problems. He was constantly showing up sauced. (In fact, he still boozes and was seen drinking with Giuliani three days before the events.) Epps lateraled over to the Prouds in 2016 who are less Fundamentalist Christian and more tolerant of alcohol and other gospel violations.

Third of all, Epps didn't need to call FBI tip lines as alleged by Raphael "Ted" Cruz. He had direct dial access to comm central at J. Edgar. Cruz knows only too well about that.

You are a moron.

Don't include me in your "us". I want nothing to do with you.

'inside job' is different than 'some bad apples in law enforcement'. We have known for a long time (like forever) that there are some violent racist types who would be Trumpy, in law enforcement. The point is -- who planned this insurrection? The answer is -- Trump & Flynn etc

The "etc" is the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers. These two groups, along with Trump, planned and executed the attack on the Capitol. Flynn and Roger Stone have close ties to both groups and both groups were in contact with Flynn and Stone before and during January 6th.

Trump apparently talked to Bannon about attack plans on the morning of January 5th.

On the evening of January 5th, Trump told Mark Meadows to attend a meeting with Stone and Flynn regarding what would play out the next day.

When Trump sent the mob to Capitol that day he knew exactly what he was doing. He knew it would be violent. The violence was part of the plan.

It's a good thing these groups and others (like the 3%ers or whatever) are in practice nothing more than LARPers who were too scared and unorganized to actually carry out what they intended to do when push came to shove on the 6th. Bad things happened that day, but there was a big potential for much worse outcomes.

The issue is will the DOJ begin a criminal investigation into Trump. The evidence so far supports - even warrants - it. There will be more evidence. The Attorney will be aware of the stakes in seeking to prosecute a former President. It will be a case the DOJ couldn't afford to lose.

Don't you mean - "be there, will be wild"?

So if you are old and sick you should be allowed break any law you want?

Don't do the crime if you can't do the time.

Citing Clay Travis ?? Speaks volumes:

Travis has attracted criticism for spreading misinformation about the COVID-19 pandemic. Travis has repeatedly downplayed the severity of the disease, calling it "overrated", claiming that it is less severe than the seasonal flu, that fewer than several hundred would die of the disease in the US.

It's getting even weirder. It sounds like DOJ might have an open and shut case of witness tampering against Trump. And he's a clear and present danger to do it again. If the evidence is strong they may need to arrest him soon in order to protect ongoing investigations.

Ray "Fred" Epps was kicked out of the Oaths, Disco Gary. He was removed from the society for excess drinking about 10 years ago. The behavior of the Oaths can't be imputed to Epps. You need another source for it, like Stink Bannon on Roger Stone. Not Giuliani, because he's a drunk too, and the Oaths would not have listened to him on something this significant to America.

Still more confirmation that Trump lost the 2020 election from a bunch of Republican lawyers and judges - not that there is any evidence that you would ever believe.

Witness tampering either has evidence which confirms it or no evidence to confirm it. There's typically no in between. For instance, if Trump left a voicemail asking the witness not to testify or even implied the same there's a strong case. A simple phone call to the witness isn't going anywhere particularly if they didn't speak at that point.
