I was actually one of the "no" votes. Not sure why but I have been watching. What I don't see live, I get in recaps later on.I am looking forward to Thursday. As someone said upthread, it's going to be "Must Srr TV!"

You know what I hate? When i see photos of people who were photographed with their right hand raised while taking the oath But turns out that they were big liars. now when i see anyone hold their hand up like that, I get mad. they're probably going to lie.

You are legit concerned about abuse of power? Tune in to the hearings, they are presenting a lot of information on that topic.
I don't want to repeat myself for the 50th time. Read the WSJ editorial board about your allegations. It kills all of that. What Pelosi did was unprecedented. She can select Adam Schiff who is a Trump hater and a liar to the committee but she has problems with 2 Republicans who will challenge her narrative and not only that but bring up to the light why Congress was so poorly prepared and not ready prior to 1/6 making Pelosi look very bad and show a big light where Pelosi wants to keep dark.

Again, UNPRECEDENTED in the history of Congress. In Pelosi We trust now and We have to listen to her for the truth but you call people that have concerns cult members?

So you think all these people are reading transcripts? Otherwise.....

What's unprecedented is what happened on January 6th.

Wall Street Journal editorial writers are totally trustworthy sources, but the Speaker of the Arizona House and the Georgia State Attorney General, staunch right wing conservative Republicans testifying under oath, are part of a kangaroo court. Got it.

I've read the WSJ editorial, btw. It's an opinion piece.

You are another one that doesn't have a problem of a Democrat Speaker using Congress to criminally investigate private citizens of the opposing party and publicly accused them of crimes and leaks to the public. You have NO issues with that. It says a lot about you.

Whenever you see Liz Cheney, ask her if her father finally found the WMD in Iraq. She will have plenty of time to take care of him after the elections. She will have plenty of time to investigate what happened in Iraq. Thanks for the laugh.
Good thing no one makes a drinking game of your posts, we'd all die of alcohol poisoning. Kangaroo court! TDS! Pelosi! blah, blah. Yup, I voted for W back in the day. I loathed Al Gore at the time. It was before 9/11 even happened. Not that ANY of that is really relevant to the conversation, except insofar as the point I made in mentioning my own voting history in the first place...I am no locked-in Democrat, I have spent most of my adult life as an Independent voter. I prefer to make my choices free of party allegiance. Don't feel like I can do that these days. Does that mean that I am forever without any criticism of leaders that I voted for? Of course not. I am not "loyal" to any of these people. I voted for Biden, too, but I feel that he's made a disastrous error related to the fuels markets but that, too, is totally off topic and beside the point.


Anyhow. Thing is, they (the Committee) have really thrown everything they had into this to the point that a LOT is on the line. What I mean by that is, if Trump is not indicted they have a problem and if he's not convicted, they have a bigger one. They might come to regret this, if only because they've put all of their chips on one result.

But for giggles, let's say you're some kind of right and it's all a big ol' witch hunt kangaroo clown show. Let's say. Let's say that Trump is in fact shiny clean and made of gold. A man in that situation would have grounds for the biggest defamation suit in the history of the world. Do you think he'd bring one? I don't. I think that the last thing he wants is to have to prove anything in court. But the proof of that pudding is years out.

But we'll see! My prediction at this point is that Trump will face indictments, possibly in NY or GA or at the Federal level...but that it will be such a procedural crap-show that he will never do time. It will stretch on for ages. And if he runs for Prezzie in 24, he will lose, at least unless the Republicans make it so that State Legislatures directly select electors and throw out the will of voters, which may be the case in a number of states.

I predict that every time it gets close to Trump testifying, another family members takes a fatal tumble.

Marla needs to take precautions.
