If you can't watch the Thursday hearing live, there are going to be many online watch parties streaming the hearing in full throughout the day. The world is watching. See you there.
Anyone who cares about the country should be watching these hearings.

Most important in at least 2 decades.

Save your rhetoric and propaganda, I don't care about it and won't respond. Just do your duty as an American and watch to evaluate the evidence yourself. Just remove yourself from the influence of your talking heads or worse, for just a few hours. The country depends on it!

He doesn’t know what day it is. At least the leading Dems are finally saying out loud he’ll be a one-termer. The problem is Kamala is very unpopular (and also incompetent). How can the race-obsessed Dems bypass a ‘woman of color’ when filling the Presidential ticket for the 2024 Presidential Election?

Anyway, jailing the cognitively diminished Biden is like kicking a defenseless puppy.

Evidence of what? That Trump used a secret and undetectable code (AKA dog whistle) to tell some unarmed followers to overrun security at the Capitol and trespass in the building during and after his DC speech?

And the failure to find such evidence indicates just how secret and undetectable the code was?

I think the whole theatrical presentation is a bit much. Of course, I thought the same following the presentations on the ‘evidence’ of Trump-Russia collusion presented in the House. So there’s that.

Nope. Giuliani never brought the big Trump-Russia Collusion lie (drunk or otherwise). And this latest January 6 2021 retro-theatrical production is directed by the same two: Pelosi and Schiff.

This is all testimony from republicans, many of them Trump's own people. Their testimony under oath would be the same regardless of who sits on the Committee.

The fishing expedition is what’s being done during the hearings…and Dems will have to settle for the little fish being caught.
Garland is AG of the United States, and as such was ***ALWAYS*** the one who was going to "get" him if he gets got, read: indict and prosecute him if the evidence of crimes is sufficient. Garland is not Moscow Mitch and his Band of Craven Political Senate Cowards who are willing to look the other way regardless of evidence presented.

For the umpteenth time - The 1/6 Committee is not conducting a trial, this is an investigation. Witnesses are not called. The sole purpose is to uncover the facts of what happened.

Discovery and calling witnesses to prove or disprove those facts will happen during the trial, if there is one, and I personally believe there will be. I know what I believe, you know what you believe, but neither of us knows what a jury will believe.

Think OJ Simpson's trial, if you will.

There wouldn't be the constant drips and leaking of information, no grandstanding, nor a public circus on display.

The vast majority of people used to be against civil rights and civil liberties abuses, seems that manner of thinking has changed for many.
Merrick Garland has demonstrated that his DOJ doesn't leak. He knows full well that he may end up taking the results of his investigation and the one the the 1/6 Committee to court, and the burden of proof will be on him to prove not only that people were involved in crimes, but their intent to participate in them.

If you give a couple of guys a lift and they ask you to stop, and they walk into a bank and rob it, unless you knew their intent was to rob the bank you are not guilty. The prosecutor's job is to determine if you were telling the truth about not knowing. You may not have robbed the bank, but if you had knowledge they were going to do it, you are just as guilty as if you were holding a shotgun in one hand and a bag in the other. If you are innocent, you will be found innocent. The jury is the fuse that protects the accused. They have to be convinced.

The "leaking of information" happened a number of times in court filings, which are public and open to examination by the media. I would imagine that whatever you see in the televised hearings has been fully discussed and approved by Garland, and is also the tip of the iceberg.
