1ºIt told us nothing like the impeachment "hearings" It was all a 1 sided attack. With the names that got dropped, coming out and saying "no that never happened and we will testify under oath about it." While the Democrats swept them under the carpet.
The only thing this showed us, is how horrible hearings are run and how they waste time and money, but it makes for good propaganda when you silence your opposition, just ask the NAZI's.
But watch about how suddenly the hearing go from "fair" to unfair when the Republicans take over, when it's the exact same process.
2ºChad Lute THEY DON'T want a trial they can't win! They like this way, better! So what is this? That goes on and on...with no conclusion in sight! Anyone who thinks they heard someone say anything, is brought in to be make an appearance...and say WHAT? What if someone had something to say that didn't fit the narrative they are are looking for? You would never hear from them! This is a first in the history of our country! Can you imagine a committee bringing in ONLY circumstantial or even documented evidence to charge Hunter with a crime, that went on for months! Drip...drip...drip as it came in? The LEFT would be throwing a FIT! It would never happen in a million years! What circumstantial evidence and hearsay "SHOW," has ever bumped regular scheduled programming off the air, night after night? I can't think of ONE time! This is a professional ABC big shot programmer who has put this together in a nice edited little package with a bow! Will the defense get a turn to refute any of this? What are they looking for? If they don't have it now, they never will because Trump never order an Insurrection! Not speaking out quicker, was a big mistake, but then he didn't order an insurrection so he wasn't expecting it to get out of control. I have always said Trump's biggest problem was not being PRO-ACTIVE enough! If he thought the election was being rigged, he should have had 500 attorneys at all the big city polls! He should have not allowed Hillary's attorneys to change election laws a couple days before the election! He made many mistakes, because he isn't wired to expect things to not go the way he was expecting it to. Too optimistic for me! He didn't have his T's crossed and I don't like that! How did the Republicans get kicked out of the polls? Why weren't both parties there to count the last million ballots as they rolled in past midnight? The Democrats screamed their election was stolen in 2000 and 2016, with a lot less happening, to look suspicious! That Jamie on the committee has called in several elections where the Democrats lost, to NOT count the elector college votes!
3ºUnfair election systems can lead to politicians and their enablers who appreciate unfairness, which leads to more unfairness, and sometimes crimes.
“Trump and his supporters are a clear and present danger to American democracy.”
“. . . to this very day the former president, his allies and supporters pledge that in the presidential election of 2024 — if the former president or his anointed successor as the Republican Party presidential candidate were to lose that election — that they would attempt to overturn that 2024 election in the same way that they attempted to overturn the 2020 election.” – Judge Luttig
His Republican credentials are impeccable, and his warning about the former president and his supporters is unequivocal.
“If you can convince Americans that they cannot trust their own elections, that anytime they lose, it is somehow illegitimate, then what is left but violence to determine who should govern” - Schiff
We need to guarantee the candidate who wins the most national popular votes always wins the presidency.
Every vote in every state would matter and count equally as 1 vote in the national total.
State legislators in states with 75 more electoral votes are needed to enact the National Popular Vote bill.
The sheer magnitude of the national popular vote number (more than 7 MILLION more votes in 2020), compared to individual (especially battleground) state vote totals (45,000 more in 3 states), is much more robust against “pure insanity,” deception, manipulation, and, sometimes, crimes.
We also need to support professional election officials and candidates and lawmakers who support voting rights and respect election results.
States are agreeing to award their 270+ electoral votes to the winner of the most national popular votes, by simply again changing their state’s law.
All votes would be valued equally in presidential elections, no matter where voters live.
There is nothing in the Constitution that prevents states from making the decision now that winning the national popular vote is required to win the Electoral College and the presidency.
It is perfectly within a state’s authority to decide that national popularity is the overriding substantive criterion by which a president should be chosen.
Before new voter suppression and election subversion laws, based on the Big Lie/Big Grift, the system with 2020 election laws meant that the winning 2024 candidate could need a national popular vote win of 5 percentage points or more in order to squeak out an Electoral College victory.

4ºWhat We have learned from the committee is The twice impeached disgrace Donald Trump was the real one trying to commit fraud on the 2020 election. We learned that he was planning this fraud months before the election even happened and was willing to go to any illegal means to have the election results turn in his favor. We learned during his January 6th insurrection attack on the Capitol building by his white supremacist RADICAL MAGA"S he watched EVERYTHING with enjoyment. Trump even watched and ENJOYED seeing Ashli Babbitt get shot to death for his lies because after that incident trump still didn't hold a press conference to end the violence. Instead he started calling governors and legislators and senators that was in the building barricaded in rooms hiding from trumps RADICAL MAGA"S to not continue the certification ceremony process. That is what he was worried about not seeing one of his MAGA'S shot dead on the floor and we learned when someone finally managed to get trump to make a public statement condemning the violence and asking them to stop he didn't want to say he lost the election. We learned so much from this first half of the committee investigation can't wait till September for the second half.
5ºNothing. Its a partisan hearing designed to maintain the status quo in Washington led by the daughter of one of the most evil, racist, sexist men to ever run this country. And the Dems have embraced her with open arms. If you ever needed proof that these two parties work together to maintain their monopoly on power in this country this is it. Democracy was not threatened because it really doesn't exist in a two party system that does not allow outsiders in. Trump, is all his idiocy and egotistic psychosis, threatened their hold on power and that is why they must cast him out as the biggest threat to this country that ever existed. So many of us were hoping for an outsider to destroy the two party monopoly, just wish it wasn't the orange man.
6ºLuke Wright, it was only Republicans testifying against Trump. These people were there with Trump as these events unfolded. The real truth is Trump thought he had found a way to overthrow the election and stay in power. Fortunately Mike Pence did the right thing. I don't remotely agree with Mike Pence politically but even after he almost lost his life, he still went on to finish confirming the election. I am thankful they were not able to hang him. Donald Trump thought Mike Pence deserved to be hung, and apparently that's fine with you. What exactly is your problem?!?
7ºWe learned that some of the people if not all of them that were subpoenaed were lying or at least giving testimony to what they felt not necessarily what happened. Could Trump have done more to stop it, maybe. Did he instigate it, no. Since Pelosi won't testify, we can assume she did something that she doesn't want to be known. The J6 committee has shown more that exonerates Trump that what would be unlawful. Lying pencil neck Shifty would do anything to obey his master Soros and put Trump 6 ft under the ground. It would not surprise me if members of that panel hire a hit man to take Trump out. Hillary does it all the time, they could too.
8ºWe learned it wasn’t a hearing, but a month long closing argument with no cross examination. No testimony from the police opening doors and escorting people in. We learned of you’re a Democratic politician you can incite violence and protests don’t have to be peaceful unless you’re a Republican in which case you go to jail for twenty years. It’s okay to burn buildings, pull people from their car and beat them to death, set police precincts on fire because you will be bailed out. We learned the midterm’s are in a few months and the Democrats are still trying to bring down Trump instead of using taxpayer dollars for taxpayers.
9ºThe scary aspect of all things Trump is that he tried, and allegedly the US Secret Service agents tried, to endanger the life of VP Pence, and no one (DOJ) has done anything about it. "...Other reports say former vice president Mike Pence and his staff were acutely aware that Ornato and Engel were pro-Trump. That awareness may have played a role in Pence’s deep suspicion on Jan. 6 that the service might be trying to send him on a frolic and detour, away from his constitutional duties at the Capitol...". How can anyone let that slide? Who would have ever believed that our Secret Service could be corrupt?
10ºMark Uphill...I want to understand why the Capital police let all the people in. I want to understand why when the National Guard was authorized by the president that Mayor Boozer and Corrupt Nancy did not bring them in. I want to understand why is there a different justice system when conservatives are arrested and put in jail for extended time but Colbert's minions are let go in short duration. Many questions and I do think what happened should not have happened but it is slanted whether u believe it or not.
Maybe u r blind to what this MALA (Make America Last Again) president today is doing to this country. He said that he would b a united. Give me a break. He has officially made Jimmy Carter look competent and great.
