January 6 Select Committee
Re: January 6 Select Committee
I hope it's on network TV, not just CNN and MSNBC.

.@AriMelber just reminded the recently subpoenaed former Trump aide Peter Navarro during an interview: "You do realize these investigators can hear you when you talk on TV."

Re: January 6 Select Committee
"Mr. Chairman, I'm struggling with what you mean by "insurrection" and "violence" Furthermore, I'm not sure what would be legal or illegal in the situation, or whatever the situation might have been because I don't really know what the things that happened would have to do with the situation. You see, it's not clear to me whether trying to overthrow the government through what you might call violence but I don't think we've established the proper definition of violence and if we did I might but we haven't so I can't and honestly all this legal stuff has me kind of befuddled and you know, it's not real definitive that anything happened at all, I mean, no one has showed me any real proof that the sun came up that day, I wasn't up that early, so I don't know, do you?"Kendra wrote: ↑Thu Jun 02, 2022 1:34 pmraison de arizona wrote: ↑Thu Jun 02, 2022 1:31 pmDid he tell them how proud he is of Durham?
He's such a slime ball. But I hope he turns on tfg.![]()
See where I'm going here?
Bill Barr testifying to anything anywhere is completely phucking useless because the SOB just word salads the clock out on any question he doesn't want to answer. If he says anything, it's gonna be a lie so personally I hope if he does agree to testify he gets hit by a bus crossing the street on his way in.

Re: January 6 Select Committee
If Republican's take over, do former economic advisors who say Congress doesn't really have the power to subpoena anyone have the power to subpoena anyone?

Re: January 6 Select Committee
The committee lawyers should all know Barr by now and in between the obfuscation I hope they would have dropped in some questions about specific times and places, where he was at during those times, who else was in the room, etc. Basically use him to confirm things they already know about the timeline.

"Congressman, do you mean linear time, daylight savings time, lunch time (which is not just an illusion, but doubly so), railroad time or just Morris Day, Jerome and the Time? I'm not sure what you mean by time, I'm trying to wrap my thoughts around space-time, because it curves you see. I mean, time is bent, and well, I can't understand what you're asking. Can you rephrase that?"New Turtle wrote: ↑Fri Jun 03, 2022 1:12 am The committee lawyers should all know Barr by now and in between the obfuscation I hope they would have dropped in some questions about specific times and places, where he was at during those times, who else was in the room, etc. Basically use him to confirm things they already know about the timeline.

Re: January 6 Select Committee
Why does he imagine he'll be part of the 'in power' group if Republicans take power? I mean, are Republicans other than Trump vying for this guy's services anymore?

I should have guessed someone else would have that same thought and it would be the Economics guy.

Re: January 6 Select Committee
Just breaking on CNN, grand jury has indicted Navarro on criminal contempt. Due in court later today.

Re: January 6 Select Committee
Court documents indicate that the government requested that Peter Navarro’s indictment be kept sealed until the "arrest operation is executed.”
Today, the docket says, "the unsealing event has occurred.”

Re: January 6 Select Committee
The legal guys were on CNN a while ago and they speculated that things are slower for Meadows because he was further up the advisor food chain than a flunky like Navarro. Paraphrasing, don't recall the exact words.
Re: January 6 Select Committee
In the comments:Peter Navarro's criminal case is assigned to DC federal judge Amit Mehta.... who is handling a broad range of Jan 6 criminal cases.. including the accused OathKeeper seditious conspirators
Will we be able to listen in???

Re: January 6 Select Committee
Me too. The way he talks over the reporters asking him questions, I imagine the judge isn't going to tolerate that at all
