From your lips, but what about the Jan 6 Committee investigating this leads you to believe that jail is on the horizon?

Re: January 6 Commission
Question: how was the J6 Committee set up, just to investigate, or to follow up with charges?
My guess only to investigate and deliver a report.
But said report may be taken by the DOJ and picked apart for treason berries and select who to hang to dry high (or is it hang high to dry)

Re: January 6 Commission
Since Congress is not a law enforcement organization, I think that the most they can do is to gather the evidence and testimony and then send it to the DOJ for possible prosecution, the way they did for the Contemp of Congress referral regarding Steve Bannon.RTH10260 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 4:41 pm Question: how was the J6 Committee set up, just to investigate, or to follow up with charges?

Of course, they will issue a public report of their findings, which the Republicans and Fox News (but I'm being redundant) will immediately claim is a political witch hunt and an unjust, unlawful persecution of innocent tourists.

Re: January 6 Commission
Congress sends a "Criminal Referral" to the DOJ which then decides whether or not to prosecute.
They cannot prosecute themselves or even force DOJ to prosecute.

I don't understand why anyone would think that Johney Cash would have supported the MAGA movement. The man wasn't a raging liberal by any means, but he was a far better example of compassionate conservatividm than today's crop of a holes.

Re: January 6 Commission
Couldn't they also use what they glean from all the testimony and evidence and craft new criminal and other legislation, like as is rumored, a change to the Electoral College act of 1877 or whenever?RTH10260 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 4:41 pm Question: how was the J6 Committee set up, just to investigate, or to follow up with charges?

Re: January 6 Commission
I guess the proposal of change to legislation has gone lost in the discussion over the criminal activity of J6. My outsiders view would be that legislation would inhibit explicitly any decertification of electors after the Electoral College has done its job. Just to put a stop on recent events. I understand that more detailed prohibitions may run foul of the rule that states make their own laws as to how elect the presidential ticket.humblescribe wrote: ↑Sun Dec 05, 2021 5:53 pmCouldn't they also use what they glean from all the testimony and evidence and craft new criminal and other legislation, like as is rumored, a change to the Electoral College act of 1877 or whenever?RTH10260 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 4:41 pm Question: how was the J6 Committee set up, just to investigate, or to follow up with charges?

The presence of Michael Flynn's brother on calls on January 6 has always bothered me, particularly since there was a coverup about it initially. Then he got a promotion!

Re: January 6 Commission
I hate to say it, but more and more I think, if Pence had buckled and done what TFA wanted, it could have become a far more serious constitutional crisis than it was, and what actually happened was bad enough. But if Pence fucks with the process like TFA demanded, it would have been a whole different ballgame.
So it appears that the smarmy, weirdo, pathetic little wretch from Indiana that I've never had anything nice to say about in my life, maybe sucked it up and did something honest-to-cornflakes heroic and patriotic, and stood up to a huge amount of pressure. Stood up and did the right thing. Did the kind of thing you have no choice but to admire. For all I know, that dickheaded anti-LGBT dork saved this country from a civil war. I can tell you that I would never accept another 4 years of TFA, after he lost by 7 million votes.
Had to say something nice about him. Painful, but I got through it.

Re: January 6 Commission
Terrific.
Marc Short appeared to hate DL2XIT, there was a lot of press when Donald banned him from the White House (which was bs & Marc was fine with it). The VP's staff is going to be much more willing to provide information... many were loyal to Pence and when Donald threw him to the wolves and enjoyed hearing "Hang Mike Pence" many were disgusted. From that CNN story:

From that CNN story:
One source told CNN the committee is getting "significant cooperation with Team Pence," even if the committee has not openly discussed that. Another source told CNN that Short's help is an example of the "momentum" the investigation is enjoying behind the scenes.
Angry with Short's role in backing Pence's refusal to comply, Trump told others that he banned Short from the White House after the Capitol riot, as CNN previously reported. https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/ ... e32e222924
