January 6th legal proceedings and investigations megathread

[Badger]

The raid on Clark's home most likely got direct sign off from Garland.

Yes.

Are you agreeing or you have heard news confirming this? Just curious.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

If Lauren Boebert and Barry Loudermilk were knowingly giving "reconnaissance tours" to future insurrectionists, why didn't they request pardons as well.

They might actually have a few more functional brain cells than the others and realized that Trump wasn't going to give out such pardons because he doesn't give a sh!t about anyone outside himself and his immediate family and that doing so would bring more scrutiny on themselves.

[President Johnson]

Republicans seeking pardons:

Mo Brooks
Matt Gaetz
Andy Biggs
Louis Gohmert
Scott Perry
Marjorie Taylor Greene (potentially)

Any Republicans care to explain why an innocent person would seek a pardon?

You mean under a Republican president? There no - absolutely ZERO - chance, Biden would grant such to these nutjobs.

Yes, they reportedly sought pardons from Trump during the lame-duck period (see discussion over the past few pages).

Trump chances of being INDICTED HINGES ON OUTCOME OF 22 ELECTION that's why he is campaigning so heavily for Rs that's why he wanted to stay in office fear of INDICTMENT, DOJ needs to INDICT Trump before the Midterms but it looks unlikely

That's what it boils down to if Rs take control, then there won't be INDICTMENT, but if Rs loses, there will be an INDICTMENT


This either in GA or DC, if Rs win the air will go out of the balloon even in GA, that's why Pelosi said D's need to keep the H eventhough they are underdogs because the INDICTMENT OF TRUMP HINGES ON THE SECULARIST TRIFECTA, NOT PARTAL D control , and we can't get DC Statehood with only control of SEN

I predicted literally all of these people. Granted, they're the usual suspects. Wasn't that hard to imagine.

Boebert, Cawthorn, Clyde, Jordan, Massie, and Roy are some obvious ones that are missing though.

And Paul Gosar.

I haven't been able to pay attention at all unfortunately due to personal life things.

Is there a thorough but concise, easy-reading bullet-point summary of new information from the hearings by the end of this week, somewhere?

I am agreeing with the speculation, and otherwise know as much as you do on the matter, or less.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

I won't pay attention to ANYMORE hearings it's the same as impeachment Trump or Rs aren't getting reelected because we are just as polarized as we were in 2012, 2016/2018/2020 303 AZ, CO, NV, VA, NM, MI, WI and PA, CA, NY, IL and NJ 65/60M

Romney lost 303 too 65/60 M too follow the 2012 map you won't go Wrong

This is a very interesting development.  Prior to this announcement, the next hearings were to take place in mid-July.

ETA: The committee has not released the list of witnesses for tomorrow.

[FT-02 Senator A.F.E. 🇵🇸🤝🇺🇸🤝🇺🇦]

I don't understand why they can't have it at a normal time like at 6 or 7 o'clock

[ProudModerate2]

From CNN ...

The committee did not reveal the witness list or topic but said it would "present recently obtained evidence and receive witness testimony."

It has my attention. Should be interesting.

[GeorgiaModerate]

"Would our mystery guest enter and sign in please..."

The speculation is that it's a reluctant witness so you go now. Must be big to get everyone back the week before the 4th.

I'm NOT predicting this to happen, but wouldn't it be great for them to convene the hearing with an empty witness chair...and then Mike Pence walks in.

[7,052,770]

Maybe someone who can implicate Ginni Thomas in an undeniable way?

[Chancellor Tanterterg]

So what are everyone’s official predictions?

Could be Cipollone. Or Mo Brooks has decided to testify.
