Amazingly, this isn't even in the top 3 craziest things said by speakers at the rally for Kandiss Taylor, the bat**** insane candidate for Georgia governor.  Check out Ron's twitter feed for some more doozies.

If (like me) you're not in a position to watch the hearing live, here's a good live tweet feed: https://twitter.com/HC_Richardson

There's definitely not going to be anything before the midterms. Longstanding DOJ policy is to not announce anything politically toxic in the runup to an election.

So during the lame duck session?

The committee definitely carry into the next congress because a GOP majority will immediately shut any investigations down and open phony investigations into Biden with single purpose of taking him down in 2024.

The Committee being shut down isn't really relevant to the DOD investigation though, other than they'll no longer be getting all this free investigative work.

DOJ.

Cheney just paraphrased Howard Baker's famous quote "What did the President know and when did he know it?"

Seems like some kind of a speech impediment. Age related maybe? If you put everything he says together it makes sense it's just coming out in a labored manor.

I wondered about his age too, but just checked and he's only 68.

It's really rather meaningless to debate which of 9/11 or January 6 was "worse" than the other. They were both terrible events, but in qualitatively different ways.  9/11 was a horrible external attack on the U.S. that caused a massive loss of life and shock to the American psyche, but it was pretty much a one-shot blow; there is no ongoing, significant threat to the U.S. as a result.  In contrast, January 6 was less violent and resulted in a much smaller loss of life, but it was a blow struck at the heart of the U.S. government itself, and signified a continuing internal threat to the future of the U.S. as a democratic republic.

You were doing fine with your response until you went off the deep end there.  (a) The election was not "fixed" by mail voting or any other method.  If there was a shred of real evidence and not just deluded fantasies and conspiracy theories, it would have come out in the numerous election challenges and court cases.  You do nothing but harm your credibility by perpetuating this lie.  (b) It was not just an "organic protest", as you would know if you had been watching the 1/6 committee hearings (which I strongly suspect you have not).  
Making sweeping changes to voter and election laws in the year of an election is nothing short of vote fixing. I am not a delusional person who believes in extensive ballot fraud. I don't believe these changes should have taken place in the same year as an election, and were tilted toward the democrats (i.e. in Pennsylvania, having VBM but not in-person early voting).


Maybe you should take that up with the PA Legislature, which is controlled by…wait for it…Republicans.

Prior to 2020, mail voting has always favored Republicans, and they would have done just fine with it if Trump had not stupidly turned his voters against it. That has to be one of the most self-sabotaging actions in recent US politics.
