This is the biggest witch hunt in the history of this once great nation. The committee broke attorney-client privilege in obtaining the "evidence" of crimes that were not committed. This is totally unwarranted and illegal. There is no way that this would survive any actual evidence assessment in a real courtroom. Trump will be suing these criminals in civil proceedings and win.
There is plenty of evidence in this preliminary report that is not even claimed by anyone to be covered by attorney-client privilege.
The Eastman evidence you are referring above to is a tiny piece of what the Committee considered and as someone pointed out to you, privilege does not apply to attorney-client communications where the attorney is participating in a crime -- i.e., an attorney can't conspire with a client to commit a crime and then claim the evidence is privileged. Good grief.
Hope we get Twitter files or wikileaks on the 1/6 events
LOL!!!! You think Stewart Rhodes' internal Oath Keeper emails and texts are going to clear him? They were used against him at trial, dude.
I don't think the Proud Boy, Oathies, or anyone else in the Capitol building on January 6 is going to be hiring Matt Taibbi any time soon to go through their files and let us know what they were really thinking.
Yeah, mobs of people bust into the the US Capitol during a joint session of Congress all the time. Why was this even news?
How does that compare to about $2 billion in insured damages, multiple deaths, etc. during the summer of love? Minneapolis alone had damage to over 1,500 properties, arson of nearly 200 properties including businesses, schools, non-profit organizations, government buildings and private residences. Half of all riot-related losses were not covered by insurance, leaving building owners to pay out of pocket for repairs / losses.
Not to mention all of the additional homicides after BLM police reforms have been enacted.
They are 2 different things.
Why would we give a pass to people who attempted to overthrow the election and Constitutional process of transferring power, just because BLM also initiated riots?
The significance of what Congress was doing in that building on Jan 6, 2021, and that there was a plan to stop that process is of great significance and distinguishes it from other riots.
Fox News not even pretending to be real news. Whether you think the criminal referrals on Trump et al. are warranted or not, this is a matter of enormous national and historic importance. Yet Fox is going with Hunter Biden (of course), some Stacy Abrams stuff and some War on Christmas stuff (talk about dredging up old material). Embarrassing. Fox needs to clean out some of the old hacks, much the way CNN is at least trying to do.
The Hunter Biden story IS important.
The Stacy Abrams story IS important.
That MSNBC and CNN and ABC News and others are not carrying the Hunter Biden story and did not cover it leads credence that they are not legitimate news sources. The Hunter Biden scandal deserves to be covered.
On MSNBC the top 11 stories are about Jan. 6. The next 8 stories are negative ones about DeSantis, Trump and other republicans. Again, MSNBC, ABC News, CNN, NBC News are not credible news organizations. They are merely liberal propagandists. Just a shame. Walter Cronkite used to be the best.
None of that matters when discussing January 6th. One crime isn't mitigated by "What a out that guy..."
the "committee" and its thread are having their last hurrah, asking the DOJ to do something it can't.
In less than a month, a new committee will start pushing the other direction and investigating the FBI.
Dems are eventually going to realize people don't trust them due to their close love affair with 3-letter agencies. Go ahead, praise them again, see if it wins you friends! No way to live it down at this point, been going on too long.

What nonobjective posters do NOT understand, is that when Jonathon Turley a Democrat ,(The Washington Post referred to Turley as a “liberal Democrat who voted for Clinton in 1992 and Ralph Nader in 1996).even if he is on FOX, says this is essentially going nowhere, that is exactly where it is going. Keep down voting Carmine and I , you are clueless..this is an 18 month waste of taxpayer monies, and people being arrested for walking around in the Capitol, after ropes were lifted to let them in. Plus, I am no Trump shill, but he even asked if Pelosi wanted National Guard assistance and she and Bowser could see this coming. Pelosi is fully responsible for lack of proper security and support from enforcement agencies for something like a mass, gather at the Capitol. Move on ...the n burning of cities , looting, violence vs, Police, post George Floyd, was way more impactful and damaging than this.

Would like to find out the FBI and other agencies roles in this. What did they know in advance? How many agents and informants did they have in these groups? What was their role in the run-up to 1/6 and on 1/6. Everyone knew people were coming, why did the authorities not beef up and be ready for it?

Why would you give a pass to people that rioted, incited people to riot, paid for bail for rioters and attempted to justify the rioting?
I love the "walking around" videos to prove there was no violence. When I show my kids how pros race, I show them Jakob going to get water on the track.

You don't want to know?
I'm kind of busy reading the Introductory Material to the Final Report by the Committee on the January 6th Capitol Riots. You should really do the same, to stay informed about what is being alleged and why. Here it is:
But if you go ahead and type up all the conspiracies you know about the FBI being involved in the Capitol riots or "the authorities" deciding to hinder the Capitol police, I will read it.

How different are they? I see them both as politically motivated acts of violence with the goal of influencing the outcome of an election. One was just far more destructive than the other and affected more people than the other.

You are reading nonsense if that's the case. Lies in fact.
WE need whistle-blowers and secret communications to get the facts.
Calling protest an insurrection is another step to stripping us of our free speech

I never said any rioters should get a pass.
It just really gets me when people downplay what happened on Jan 6th and say it wasn't a big deal. It clearly was. Without our Constitution and the laws that stem from it, we would no longer be the great republic that we are.

"The n burning of cities" " keep downvoting Carmine and I." You should be downvoted just for these comments.
