It's seriously NOT bipartisan.

Never-Trumpers and Demoshits.

Hand picked by Pelosi.

Fool!

Republicans Give the Appropriate Response to Jamie Raskin's Claims J6 Hearings Are Nonpartisan
By Jeff Charles | Jun 15, 2022 8:00 PM ET

During a House Judiciary Committee markup on Wednesday, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) gave a stand-up comedy routine that would give Dave Chappelle a run for his money. In fact, his performance was so off-the-wall hysterical that his Republican colleagues couldn't help bursting out in a fit of full-on belly laughter.

It happened when members of the committee were debating a bill that would send push notifications to cell phones if an active shooter was near their location. Republicans were suggesting amendments to the proposed legislation, which is called the "Active Shooter Alert Act of 2022."

At one point, Raskin went off on a lengthy tirade, castigating Republicans for politicizing the committee's work. He then boasted about being on a real committee that doesn't engage in cynical politicking. He was referring to his position on the Democratic House Select Jan. 6 committee. He said:

"It doesn't have to be like this because I actually serve on a bipartisan committee that gets things done. And that is not obsessed with partisan polemics and invective and denunciation and combat. And sees every piece of legislation is an opportunity to just club the other side. And that is the January 6th select committee."

Republicans on the Judiciary Committee fell into a raucous fit of laughter that was so pronounced, one would think they were watching Bill Burr perform. Raskin, with no sense of irony whatsoever, responded to the laughter by pretending the Jan. 6 committee isn't partisan because, on day 2, they interviewed only Republicans about what occurred at the U.S. Capitol. He said:

"Well, I appreciate the laughter of my colleagues because some people have accused us of being partisan because all of our witnesses are Republicans. You might not have noticed that, but then you might not be allowed to watch the hearings and you can see Attorney General Barr there, you can see Mr. Stepien, who's Donald Trump's campaign manager and so on."

Of course, anyone paying attention to politics over the past few years knows that almost all of the GOP witnesses interviewed at the hearings were decidedly anti-Trump. In fact, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made sure the committee would only be made up of Republicans who suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome by excluding lawmakers who were more friendly toward the former president. Nevertheless, Raskin, with a straight face, continued, pretending that the anti-Trump GOP members of the committee somehow mean the group is bipartisan. He said:

"But the truth of the matter is that this committee is a bipartisan committee. You perhaps would laugh at your Republican colleagues. I wouldn't laugh at Liz Cheney who was elected as the chair of the House Republican conference and was the number three member of the conference. I wouldn't laugh at Adam Kinzinger who's a member of the national guard reserve and a distinguished member of the House of Representatives, but in any event, you're entitled to your laughter."

Laughter was the only appropriate response to Raskin's diatribe. The notion that the Jan. 6 committee is anything but partisan is laugh-out-loud funny. The only thing that might be more humorous is the fact that Democrats actually think the public will believe their protestations. From the beginning of this sham, it was abundantly obvious that it was a political hit job designed to push the Justice Department to indict Trump or other Republicans and to minimize the damage Democrats will take in the upcoming congressional elections. Now, any honest person can see this is a last-minute, Hail Mary play to swing enough votes to avoid a brutal shellacking in November.

Unfortunately, this gambit is doomed to fail. In April, a series of polls revealed that about half of Americans believe the nation should move on from the riot at the U.S. Capitol. Even worse for Democrats is the fact that there is no polling showing that Jan. 6 is among the top issues voters have identified as areas of concern for the upcoming elections.

To bring it into real life, nobody is going to the gas station thinking about the riot - they are cringing because they are paying almost double to fill up their cars. People are concerned about higher prices at grocery stores. They want issues with education resolved. Democrats have failed miserably to deliver solutions to these problems. When voters go to the polls, this is what will be on their minds.

If Trump Goes Down for January 6, Then Schumer's Next
Spencer BrownSpencer Brown
Posted: Jun 16, 2022 12:01 AM

It's the unwatched but ever-present elephant in the room - the one-sided January 6 committee has somehow kept up its charade of a serious inquiry for months, without producing any convincing evidence beyond what most Americans already knew and moved on from months ago.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia has, albeit dubiously in the case of some J6 defendants, charged more than 800 individuals for their actions on January 6. Those who truly broke laws will be held accountable, as anyone who does ought to be. But the findings of the J6 committee will not make any of them more or less guilty.

At the same time, the January 6 committee refuses to look into why the U.S. Capitol was breached so quickly and without much effort, and why Capitol Police Officers were sent into the fray without their usual protective gear. All the committee has shown itself to be focused on is proving that President Trump's words are to blame for the actions of rioters on January 6.

If Democrats along with Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney (but I repeat myself) succeed in convincing the Biden Department of Justice that Trump must be charged for his words preceding January 6, then the same standard must be applied to everyone if equal justice is to be preserved. That means Democrats - including the Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer - should also be investigated and railroaded under the newly created threshold for liability.

Look, we've said it before and I'll say it again: violence, political or otherwise, is wrong. Antifa and BLM torching cities and chucking bike locks at cops' heads in 2020 was wrong. People at the Capitol on January 6 breaking the law or assaulting cops - even on a much smaller scale - were also wrong. But again, the justice system is already working through its process to find those who broke the law and hold them to account. The January 6 committee is only about some quixotic, supposedly moral effort that will only be seen as a success if they achieve what their second impeachment could not: preventing Trump from running for office again.

So what is the J6 committee's case against Trump? On Monday, the committee argued that President Trump's questions about the outcome of the 2020 election directly resulted in the Capitol riot on January 6. Rep. Liz Cheney claimed "President Trump summoned the mob, assembled the mob and lit the flame of this attack."

The committee is trying to criminalize questioning the outcome of an election - one that was conducted under unprecedented and untried methods due to COVID-19 restrictions - the type of questions that Hillary Clinton and Democrats spent more than four years harping on after the normal pre-COVID 2016 election. The double-standard is absurd but, it's the Democrats, so of course it's incredibly stupid.

The J6 committee also cited to Trump's alleged lack of command for the protesters to leave the Capitol (Trump, of course, did tweet they should "go home and go home in peace") as supposed proof that Trump didn't want the events at the Capitol to stop.

That's their case. It's flimsy, but the Biden DOJ might use the BINO (partisan in name only, that is) committee and its final report as a basis to bring charges against the former president. If they do, then that's the new standard for political persecution and Democrats are in big trouble when Republicans retake power.

In 2020, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer took to the plaza outside the Supreme Court of the United States and said the following: "I want to tell you, Gorsuch; I want to tell you, Kavanaugh: You have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price. You won't know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions," the New York Democrat added.

For context, Schumer's threat came as the high court was considering an abortion case. Chief Justice John Roberts condemned Schumer's words, and Schumer issued a limp boilerplate attempt to excuse his words. But they were out there, spreading quickly among Democrats and on mainstream media.

That, according to the standards of the J6 committee, constitutes instigatory language against Justices Gorsuch and Kavanaugh.

After radical leftists published the home addresses of justices who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade in a leaked draft of a Court opinion and followed up the doxxing with organized illegal protests outside the justice's homes aimed at intimidating them, Schumer gave the protesters cover.

Ignoring the illegal nature of the protests aimed at intimidating federal judges, Kavanaugh brushed off the targeted harassment by joking that "there's protests 3-4 times a week outside my house."

That failure to condemn the protests or call on federal authorities to enforce the law, again according to the J6 standard, constitutes a failure to stop unfolding hostilities.

Then last week, a man from California showed up outside Justice Brett Kavanaugh's house with a gun, ammo, a knife, zip-ties, a hammer, and other supplies with the intention of assassinating Kavanaugh in the middle of the night. Thankfully, authorities spotted the would-be assassin and spooked him. He called 911 on himself and was apprehended nearby. While on the phone with dispatchers, he stated that he was upset with Kavanaugh's vote to overturn Roe v. Wade based on a leaked draft of a SCOTUS decision due out this term.

Kavanaugh, thanks to a group of good guys with guns, was physically unharmed. But that doesn't make the attempted assasination less serious.

On January 6, the results of the 2020 election were still certified and Joe Biden was declared President-elect, but the J6 committee doesn't take the riot at the Capitol any less seriously.

Of course, trying to blame Schumer for the actions of a mentally unstable attempted assassin is silly. Republicans continually find themselves under attack from Democrats for alleged incitement (it's not) but face no questions when they use fiery language against their partisan or ideological foes. They've just never taken it as far as they are with the January 6 committee.

Schumer isn't even the only one to rally leftists against conservatives, but it's the most recent and clear-cut case that meets the January 6 committee's threshold for fault to necessitate a full-blown investigation and calls for federal charges.

Before Schumer, there was Rep. Maxine Waters who called for people to "get out and create a crowd" whenever Trump administration officials were spotted "in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station" to "push back on them" and "tell them they're not welcome anymore, anywhere."

Senator Cory Booker called for leftists to "get up in the face of some congresspeople."

Hillary Clinton told her fellow Democrats that they "cannot be civil with a political party that wants to destroy what you stand for, what you care about."

Former Attorney General Eric Holder told Democrats that "when [Republicans] go low, we kick them."

All of these Democrat elected leaders' words have been followed up by harassment from Democrat and leftist activists. Yet they're not held responsible - either before a partisan committee or in a court of law. If the January 6 committee succeeds in changing the rules to make Trump accountable for every action that follows his words, then Democrats are anything but safe from similar prosecution.

After actually watching todays hearing my opinion is is is obvious trump is a Liar and a Traitor.

He should be held accountabe to the fullest extent of the law.

A Firing Squad should not be out of the question, if it is legal.

That's what America should do with traitors.

It would send the propper message to the world.

LM - It was obvious early on that he was a liar. He lied or hyper exaggerated about so many things couldn't even keep track. Even things that didn't matter, and he often was caught or fact checked.

So, am surprised that the J6 hearing is what made you decide he was a liar. But, at least you figured it out.

As for being a traitor to the Constitution...that is a strong word. The hearings are bringing that out in public.
but again, his solo meetings with Putin...and his bro-romance with putin in general was very suspect. In intelligence/class info circles it was decided not to inform 45 of everything. In fact presidents don't have access to all information, but they were especially cautious with 45. Hell, many on his team couldn't really get security clearances without special intervention.
Same thing with his China and North Korea dealings. He was angling for personal/family gain probably more so than for his constituents. Not sure that makes him a traitor, but it does make him a grifter.

Doubt that anything 'serious' will ever happen to him.. Banned from public office forever is a likely outcome - but can you imagine his 'fans' response...

Have a strong hunch that no one running for national office - and really wants to win - will really want his toxic 'endorsement'..

Not sure that the public humiliation will ever deter him - his ego won't even stop him from claiming he won...

Everyone who runs for prez has an ego to one extent or another, some way more than others.. The only one that I can think of that is 'humble' is JC.. Funny he;s the last one standing' - elected way way back in '76?

It's very bad for our global rep that these hidden facts are now 'public knowledge' - as they should be.. Only one person to blame for that - the perpetrator..

The whole idea is that this BS should never happen again - by ANY SIDE..

We'll have to see whether the tyranny of the minority will prevail in 24, once right wing partisans have infiltrated all levels of the electoral process.

I give it about a 50/50 chance that we'll have a fair election.
