Credible, but yeah, this part of relaying a conversation she wasn't in is hearsay.

But this gets a lot more pressure on people to get up and testify under oath.


Jesus Christ, Trump may have gone after a guy physically??
How hard would it be to get the secret service guy to confirm this.

Just lol at all this poo poo. E: especially Trumpy throwing dishes

I'd hope they 100% confirmed this before letting her say poo poo like "trump grabbed the steering wheel and tried to choke a guy" in the hearing. This is a huge direct allegation and you wouldn't want this to fall apart later.

Good point, it's the White House: I'm sure whatever happened was captured on security camera.

Trump knew his followers were armed.
He knew they were getting stopped at the Mags.
He wanted them to be let in for photographs
He then wanted to lead an armed crowd to the loving Capital building.
He got hugely pissed off because he wasn't allowed to lead this trip.
Did I get this wrong?

Unfortunately, it was all captured on bodycams and all the footage was mysteriously lost, somehow.

It was in the Beast. If there are cameras in there, the Secret Service may not want it to be known that they are out there.

I see why they had this surprise session today. It's still extremely dry but it's borderline salacious gossip, and great for TV. We already know all the players and it's obvious he knew it was illegal, yadda yadda, but today is laughable incendiary fluff so far and it's a blast.

Nope, that's about it! It's okay because "they weren't here to hurt HIM" is a great soundbite.

It's not fluff, it's direct testimony. Why are you all not understanding that this is different from us all knowing that it happened?

All of this furthers my impression that Trump thought the US electoral system literally functioned liked a Capture the Flag match, and that if he and his supporters could simply enter the Capitol and hold ground for a few minutes, he would be get to be the new president and Biden would have to give up

Meadows has already been subpoenaed, he just ignored it. Already held in contempt over it, referred to the DOJ, who declined to prosecute.

Perhaps 'red meat for people who like laughing at/hating Trump' would be a better phrase than 'fluff'. I just meant, like, fun and popcorn-worthy. It's obvious that the committee is following an arc structure to the hearings, and everyone paying attention has seen testimony about his knowledge of illegality and the players involved. But the stuff that's come out today is, in contrast, extremely riveting because it's fuckin' nuts. It can be fun and stupid while also being congressional testimony.

If the DOJ knew any of this poo poo and they declined to prosecute, then noting matters. If they are JUST learning this and decline to re-open the case and prosecute him for contempt, then same thing, nothing loving matters.

It's great content.

Also while IANAL, it seems very bad for a lot of people. Especially if the stuff she's saying can be independently collaborated.
