She's talking about Officer Sicknick "pale as this piece of paper" and holding his head in his hands. Before she could check on him, they were both sprayed.

a couple of folks in mein chat thought that video should have led, I disagreed as it, like the last person on stage for a show (usually the Headliner) it's what the viewers will remember: "T**** asked me to." repeated over and over and over.

Has anyone seen numbers for last night's hearing's views? I tried to google it but couldn't get the key words right.

one thing that i’ve been resisting is using the term “Treason.”

however, i am now convinced that Trump sent the Proud Boys to levy war against the United States.

they were armed with weapons, they attacked and assaulted the seat of our government.

and there were millions of witnesses.

After watching bits of the film maker's work, I think that's pretty obvious. I wonder if there are more clips to come.

Speaking of whom, he specified he was there under subpoena but didn't seem hostile. Is there a work/ethic reason he preferred to appear under subpoena?

Not sure I agree that he didn't seem hostile. He certainly did the very minimum IMHO and kind of stiffed Thompson so much so that Thompson had to clean it up after the fact. Of course his footage spoke for itself but I felt that Thompson was expecting something he didn't get. I thought that was the low point of the evening.

“And thanks to your bullshit, we are now under siege.” - VP Pence’s counsel in an email to Eastman on Jan 6. #January6thHearings effectively introduced the words of Trump’s own people to indict Trump on his intent to execute a plan to overthrow the government.

I'm not so sure nothing new came out, maybe it was more that things we knew/suspected were confirmed, but how much more do they need to come out before they acknowledge how serious it was? Holding Pelosi at knife point? Placing the noose around Pence's neck? I've been paying close attention all along so I knew what to expect, yet I was still horrified by the video and texts.

Just to close this circle, Short was a big dud. He didn’t want to say anything and just tried to downplay the situation. To his credit, Brett Baier did try to nail him down a couple times. Ex. What did you think what you heard the crowd chanting “hang Mike Pence” Ans. We were really more focused on completing the business we were there to do. Q. What did you think when you heard tfg said “maybe Mike Pence SHOULD hang”, A. By the time it got to us, it was second or third hand information, so we really focused more on completing the business we were there to do.
