I’m just saying I would like to see a man beat a woman in a cage. Just to be sure.
You guys are going off and making it sound like powerful people are going to see real consequences.

Is there someone watching this who isn't furiously masturbating right now? I'm at work so I'm just going by the commentary here. I'd love someone more calm.

I am watching it during meetings at work and while compelling testimony and narrative, I remain sceptical the DOJ will actually do anything.

So, about the pardons that Stone and Flynn got... Is there anything they can be charged with now or are they pretty much untouchable?

At this point, this hearing is going to end with Trump kicking the doors in, running up the aisle and pausing at every row of seats and screaming "I DID IT! I DID IT! YES I DID IT! THROW ME IN JAIL! I DARE YOU! I DID IT! AND I'D DO IT AGAIN!"

Every time I browse the running SA commentary I think "ok they are probably posting in the moment in this fun little bubble, but they are overselling it"

Pardons are not private? Their posted online by the DOJ. They don't pardon people of future crimes.

I just now looked up those two pardons to check. They were both very narrowly and specifically written to cover only the crimes they were convicted for. They did not get a blanket pardon that would cover anything beyond those specific criminal cases.

It would be very funny if this whole session went without the committee talking to them once, just making that guy sit there with whatever the gently caress t-shirt he's wearing.

Maybe not a good idea, but very funny.

Actually, no. Stone had his sentence commuted and then he was also pardoned. The former in July and the latter in December, both in 2020 (and therefore before January 6th).

Give me the secret to the anti-puppet equation!

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that receiving a pardon means you can't invoke the fifth amendment anymore when talking about those crimes, because part of getting pardoned means that you're basically admitting to your guilt.

Pretty much, yes.

You are admitting the crime but then it's slightly more complicated how it interacts with the Fifth.

During this call, the Vicepresident told the president, that he would not atempt to change the outcome of the election. In response, the president called the vicepresident a wimp, and other derogatory words.

(trump to speech writer): reinsert the Mike Pence Lines.

speechwriter inteview: "There was a very tough.. ahem, "tough" sentence, that was added"

Ivanka was bothered that Trump had called Pence expletives.
She had hoped to talk to, and calm him down... until he went on stage.
