Jan 6 Attack on the Capitol and the aftermath

Oh shit...

Trump's been subpoenaed. You heard it here first.. From Australia 😏
Oh yes, I watched the hearing live today.

In case anyone forgot, Hillary testified for like 11 hours straight about Benghazi and did not plead the fifth once. Anybody wanna make wagers on how many times Trump will plead the fifth? :drama:

I just saw it briefly (amongst the flood news here) and thought "is this a big deal?" so came and looked here but didn't see anything.

It's a step in the right direction, right? To stop him getting in again in 2024?

What is the fifth? (Amendment I assume).

Yes it is good. A subpoena means he is essentially being forced to testify before the Committee. Failure to appear is grounds for contempt, which would go to a jury trial and could possibly result in jail time.

The Fifth Amendment:
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

The bold part pretty much means the defendant does not have to incriminate themselves when they testify. It is almost exclusively used by guilty parties who do not wish to admit to a crime they committed. For example, the prosecutor may ask, "Did you commit sedition against our nation?" If they did, they have the constitutional right to say, "I plead the Fifth" and nothing more.
 
I think there will be ample security at the inauguration. All living former presidents except Carter + Pence + Biden + Harris = lots of security

As far as the state capitals go, I think the governors will call up the National Guard. The governor of Maryland was waiting to send them into DC (needed the okay to cross the border), and this time it’ll be them and their staffs. They’ll be ready.

After what happened, I don’t think any of the politicians are going to mess around. I don’t think as many Trump supporters are going to be as eager to get arrested and put on the no-fly list as they were before.

I hope I’m right.
What do you think about January 6 now
 
January 6 was an entrapment and then direct attack on the American people by their government.

And the propaganda is ridiculous "worse than 9/11....." :rolleyes:
 
Jan sixth was worse than the holocaust bro, where you been at.
Also why isn’t this a bigger story https://justthenews.com/politics-po...probe-democrat-whistleblowers-evidence-ballot
Whoah, I thought that election fraud was some kooky conspiracy theory?
Like it only happened in other countries, but never in a developed western nation like the US!

oh and I'm afraid I'll have to request that you retract your holocaust statement.
Or else you will receive the Yeezy treatment.
 
Am I the only one that finds it wild that qanon and the ‘insurrection’ is being prosecuted by the blue anon Russia gater people. It’s wild to me that people buy their narratives anymore. Really delving into jfk was enough for me to see through all their tricks.
If you have so much inside information that could exonerate the messiah and his lackeys, why not report it or go take it to the media to get them off the hook? Oh wait, you have no evidence? Just your hunch and a youtube video?
 
coming out of the committee's report is the claim that there is evidence that a trump lawyer urged a witness to mislead the committee.

the allegation is that stefan passantino - a trump administration ethics attorney - encouraged cassidy hutchinson to say that she could not recall certain details when she could.

ethics attorney? yes! you really can't make this shit up...

and just ask yourself - if the testimony of a witness will not create a problem for you, why would you attempt to sway them to give untruthful testimony?

Proof ?
 

I know that its impossible to reference this as any attempt to use reports from the media will of course be instantly dismissed due to the fact that all the MSM does is lie. Only special people have access to the actual source of real truth in this day and age, how I do not know but they are just right and that is the end of it.

Regardless of how pathetic my attempt is to rely on reporting, the best I can do is the direct testimony of Miss. Hutchinson herself via the AP, one of the few outlets with little to no editorial bias.

AP: Jan. 6 witness recounts pressure campaign (22/12/22).

I know that mere facts are no longer considered proof but its all I have to go on.
