Total fiction, which shows the veracity of this highly biased and incorrect article from June.

But TODAY we have the Secretary of Defense stating UNDER OATH that Trump did NOT order national guard troops at all.
This is the same Sec of D who wiped texts from days around Jan 6 from his govt issued phone?
Texts that are legally required to be part of the national record????

Any idea how much it has cost OUR government to house and attempt to relocated the children separated from their parents at the southern border by Trump’s draconian policies???
$775 a day per child is the estimated cost
For over 4 yrs in some cases

https://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...3f9_story.html

MUCH more $$$ than this 1/6 hearing and will be ongoing after the hearing is over since some of these children will NEVER be reunited…

So on a cost per basis I think the 1/6 is vastly more economic and beneficial to US taxpayers than trying to undo a great wrong created by past administration…

Seems what the question was that I had responded to and what you think are two different things.

As a member in good standing in the War Room at the Willard, Jones would have been in the loop for most of the correspondence between himself and Stone, Kerik, Bannon, Flynn, Eastman, etc., and whatever orders were given to the Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, and 3%ers.

What is in his phone either confirms or refutes beyond a shadow of a doubt what happened leading up to 1/6. Whole lotta sweating going on in Trumpworld today, guaranteed.

Oh interesting, I missed that. As I recall his answers at the hearing were fairly hesitant, but in the end he conceded that Trump never ordered or offered the NG. Funny how going under oath loosens the tongue.

Yep. Nothing like the prospect of a perjury charge to encourage someone to tell the truth.

Trump likely to be criminally charged in DOJ election probe along with other former White House officials, Obama AG Holder says

Former President Donald Trump "probably" will be indicted on criminal charges along with officials in his White House as part of a Justice Department investigation of efforts to reverse the 2020 election results nationally, ex-Attorney General Eric Holder said in an interview Thursday.

And this is the IG in DHS that was supposed to supervise the SS dumping texts
He was also—be it noted—a Trump appointed IG to that position

So you can understand why the i/6 would want him out of the way to interfere with any investigation of his or anyone else’s wrongdoing…

Quoting Holder doesn’t make me think it is a sure thing—
I was not that impressed with Holder during his tenure as AG but I have read the same in other sources so Holder is not the primary source…
Just hope it happens soon
