Trump did want to Tweet anything with the word "peace" in it and it took hard convincing to get him to tweet stay peaceful.

Per Kayleigh McEnany, Trump did not want to include any suggestion of “peace” when he *finally* called for rioters to leave.

This guy sounds like Tobey Maguire if he had gotten terminally addicted to 4chan or The_Donald/ban-evasion form

Hawley is going to be a laughingstock for the rest of his (hopefully brief) career in politics.

Footage of the Rose Garden message Trump recorded, speaking off the cuff. Said it was a stolen election and everyone knows it, but they have to go home now. Says "they" took it away from all of us. Said he loves them [rioters] and they're very special and he knows how they feel.

Outtakes from Trump filming his video asking people to go home.

Saying he had a landslide win lol. What a effing idiot.

Mike Pence tried to get some sort of response to the scene, while Trump refused.

Pence was the only one trying to do something.

Have to call it a night. I’ll finish watching tomorrow.

This has been a very damning hearing for Donald Trump.

Unaired footage of him practicing his address the next day. He said the election was over and Congress has certified the results, but then he said he didn't want to say the election was over and had it taken out.

Trump refusing to say "the election is over" in these cut takes from the January 7th address is just astonishingly reckless on his part. The lie that the election was not over is the main reason the attack happened, as he well knows.

Him slamming the podium is indicative of his temper.

Wow, what a speech from Kinzinger.  That was from the heart.

Link? I'm at an emo show and I saw it on the silent TV in the background of the bar of the venue but couldn't hear it.

I am so glad that there are at least occasional moments to laugh in spite of how awful everything that happened on January 6th was. And for it to be centered on Hawley makes it even better.

I once read a quote, don’t recall the source: “the tyrant fears the laugh more than the assassin’s bullet.”

So what's the conservative story now?  What's the excuse?  I don't even know what the alternative narrative is supposed to be at this point.

"This was just a peaceful, legitimate protest" has to be done now, right?

"Trump didn't know this was going to happen" and "Trump didn't want this to happen" both done.

"Trump didn't know what was going on" or "Trump condemned the riots so he doesn't bear responsibility" also pretty clearly over now.

They’ve done a good job laying out Trump’s total inaction and even refusal to carry out his duties as president.

Him refusing the call from the Department of Defense seems like a big deal.

Can this be used as evidence of criminal negligence?
