That's good to hear. I think she's the best presenter of everyone we've heard so far.

Hutchinson says Meadows told her the 6th might get “real real bad”.

Unless we get a meeting of someone raising concerns of violence happening at the rally to Trump and he condones that outcome then this won’t change anything

Hutchinson is currently testifying that Trump was upset at the crowd size at the Ellipse (surprise, surprise) and was trying to get the organizers to take down the metal detectors people had to pass through to get in because he knew there were armed people outside the rally's perimeter, and he wanted to let them in. He said he knew they weren't there to hurt him and "they can march to the Capitol when the rally's over."

Trump cares only about himself and his family.

Trump knowing the supporters were armed and letting them through to the capitol is almost so shocking yet it shouldn't be.

I don't know if Trump actually wanted members of Congress who opposed him to be killed on January 6th or if he merely wanted them to be intimidated into going along with the coup attempt, but at this point it is beyond clear that he wanted one of those two things to happen, and both are completely beyond the pale for anything that we should tolerate.

Imprison this fascist at ADX Florence before he tries it again.

And this is why Jamie Raskin was so smug to MTG the other day.

Trump tried to grab the steering wheel of the truck that transported him from the rally to force them to take him to the Capitol, and, according to a third-party witness (i.e. not Hutchinson), lunged at someone (the driver?) and apparently tried to choke him?! We had better get whoever the source for that story is subpoenaed stat.

You know, I didn't think anything in this world was capable of surprising me anymore.

I was wrong.

Trump threw his lunch at the wall. Hutchinson had to clean the ketchup off the wall. Hutchinson was aware of "several times" Trump had previously thrown his food or pulled the tablecloth off the table when he had had temper tantrums.
