If not, search the threads. There are literally dozens of them.
Those riots had zero to do with because Trump. Opportunistic criminals used poor Floyd as a way to loot, cause violence, burn it down, etc…, and Dems have been crying about and blaming the police ever since…and it’s worked out so well. Because Trump also wasn’t in favor of defending the poor entitled opportunist like Harris tried so hard to do.

Democrats have creative control on how is being shown. No live testimony. Just highly edited clips designed to show what they want to show.

Yet another reason to just go to court and let professional prosecutors handle it.
The committee does seem to like to make a habit out of editing (altering) evidence.

There has been plenty of live testimony in the televised hearings. There will be more today in the hearing at 1:00 P.M. EST.

The House Democrats (AKA the Russia Collusion Hoaxsters) who have now established a dubious one-sided hearing to prove something or another related to Trump are simply unable to establish credibility on this front.

Jussie Smollet will not be trusted should he report another dubious racial attack. Why would he be trusted?

Excellent.

So why would they be important enough to bring up in this thread, since Trump had nothing to do with them?

I’m sure the Committee would love to have any or all of them testify live, and they could have specified that in agreeing to testify. Instead they simply tried to dodge the whole affair.

That gambit is not going to work for them.

No doubt the Republicans in the House will hold hearings in the BLM/Antifa riots once they take the House. If they create thoroughly one-sided hearings, rational folks will discount them.

Do you have proof of that? If it were me, I would not go before a partisan committee either. I would go with my lawyer to DOJ, not the Congress Critters and their video editing machine

lol, if President Trump tried to overthrow the Capitol Police, the Armed Forces of the USA and the US Government, with 500, 1000, 2,000 or even 3,000 right wingers, and declare himself Dictator of the USA, he would need the support of the Armed Forces of the USA to stay in Power. This is how ridiculous this is to believe. But that is what the Leftist Democrat Politicians, VIPs and Leftist Media want you guys to believe.

If so, If I GMS Alberto, can gather 500 right wing supporters, I can declare myself Dictator of the USA, lol. But I would need the support of the Armed Forces of the USA to stay in Power, lol again.

And then what? Vastly outnumbered by an angry crowd with folks shot dead in front of them would mean two things:

1. The mob would overrun them.

2. We'd have a wrongful crowd death scene like SC State or Kent State

Neither one of these outcomes would be good for the country.

I doubt it. 400 cops using revolvers could not hit all those 'protesters'.

I wouldn't bet on that. Didn't Rittenhouse get beat on the head with a skateboard?
