    ""Please tell us where the “evidence” is physically located at of voter fraud in 2020 that you expect Trump to take into the courts?""

    Audits show there was tampering in the election... Sworn affidavits that things went on in the parking lot... where is the security video.... Witnesses saw ballot issues... where are those ballots... etc

    Interesting. They believe that they must legitimate him regardless of how outlandish his self-serving lies, because he embodies their basest emotions.

    The only Republicans crossed off the list were ones who PARTICIPATED in the plot being investigated. It takes a special kind of idiocy to argue that they should have been included. McCarthy knew that when he submitted his list. He needed and excuse to back out.

    Can you link us to any of these "affidavits"? Can you tell us their actual contents? They didn't convince the courts, and even Giuliani admitted that they had gotten false affidavits.

    OK. So, why not just be honest? I know the Orange Stain is allergic to it but do all of them have veracity issues?

    Why not just say "I hate all black and brown or non-heterosexual people, I don't mind exploiting them and having blue states subsidize red states (so I can sit on my country thrown and hate people for no damn reason) but they are not my equal in any way and never will be and my deity of Sky Daddy is just cool with that."?

    Why pretend like somebody is doing something egregious TOWARD him (or them) because those of us that don't live all that above BS have an issue with them trying to twist their crap into pretzels trying to make it sound legit or reasonable or rational? Just own your BS.

    It's just like them following each other around the board spreading their hate and liking each other posts and group reporting us. Why are they so hypersensitive about being told exactly who he is and who they are if they think they are in the right? I think I've reported maybe 7 posts since I joined here and 6 of them were my own for mistakes (or because somebody told me I hurt their feelings). I don't report the people that talk crap to me as I want their BS on display for anybody reading the thread. They can't offend me because I think they are worthless (and they are a key component of why I'm pro-choice. I wish their mom's had that privilege).

    Why are they are so offensive AND hypersensitive when they feel offended? One should cancel the other dumbass thing out.

    I think you overestimate Trump's reflective capacity and ability to rationalization.

    Oh, Lord. No, I don't expect anything sane or sensible from the Orange Idiot.

    I'm talking about the people that are trying to twist things into knots like they aren't using double standards when defending him and their own hatred.

    It's not if one has the capacity to completely ignore everything they don't like.
    Sounds like a tall order but good on you for trying. The Orange Stain is legitimately (and that word only fits in this scenario) functionally illiterate. Should we really expect his <whatever you call them - all my choices are bannable> to be Rhodes scholars?

    Jordan texted this to Mark Meadows- “On January 6, 2021, Vice President Mike Pence, as President of the Senate, should call out all electoral votes that he believes are unconstitutional as no electoral votes at all – in accordance with guidance from founding father Alexander Hamilton and judicial precedence. ‘No legislative act,’ wrote Alexander Hamilton in Federalist No. 78, “contrary to the Constitution, can be valid.’ The court in Hubbard v Lowe reinforced this truth: ‘That an unconstitutional statute is not a law at all is a proposition no longer open to discussion.” 226 F. 135, 137 (SDNY 1915), appeal dismissed, 242 U.S. 654 (1916). Following this rationale, an unconstitutionally appointed elector, like an unconstitutionally enacted statute, is no elector at all,”

    Those kind of shenanigans are one aspect of what the committee is investigating.

    Speaking of hate that right there is a self serving barge load.

    The committee is tasked with uncovering the causes of the riot. Ergo very much subject to investigation.

    When you mash all the bullshit out of it, the whole "Jan 6" thing was nothing more than a crowd of disorganized, angry, frustrated people raising hell and getting way out of hand. For Democrats to try to make it into some kind of "insurrection" is the most preposterous kind of of exaggeration and spin imaginable. Maybe that's part of why nobody but the radical-Democrat 'party-faithful' have watched any of it, and even their interest has flagged.

    As an "insurrection" the whole thing was even less significant than Hitler's "Beer Hall Putsch", which occurred when a big bunch of National Socialists came boiling out onto the street in Munich to march, raise hell against the Weimar Republic, engage in pushing-and-shoving, whacking people with chair legs, etc. The German police shot a few of them, and threw Hitler in jail. The whole thing blew over in a few weeks and that was that. As a genuine attempt to overthrow the government of Germany it was a silly, ill-conceived, laughable failure! And this "Jan 6" thing was even more scatter-brained and ineffective than the Beer Hall Putsch was -- but it never was, by any serious stretch of the imagination, an "insurrection"....

    Bogus sir bogus. We already know what caused the riot. A bunch of mugs lost their minds and ran amuck. There is not now nor has there ever been any evidence that any one in Congress was involved in the planning or staging of the riot.

    I agree that there’s little evidence to link politicians to the riot at the moment, and that might remain so. We’ll see what the committee has. But there’s plenty of evidence to link politicians to the attempt to overturn the election, and the ‘stolen election’ narrative was surely a primary motivation for the rioters. So Jordan’s text seems to me very relevant to the committee’s work.
