Jan. 6 Committee Hearing – Live Stream And Open Thread

Posted by Ellen -7842.60pc on July 21, 2022 · Flag

We’ll have tonight’s Jan. 6 hearing streaming here, starting at 8 PM EDT.

My understanding is that tonight’s hearing will focus on Trump’s behavior during the insurrection and will include outtakes from Trump’s January 7th video in which he reluctantly condemned the violence.

The Murdochs' Fox "News" will go with its primetime propaganda instead of the news.

This was supposed to be the final hearing but I've seen Rep. Elaine Luria and other committee members suggest there will be more.

You can watch tonight's hearing below and share your thoughts and observations underneath.

The fact that the committee worked in a zinger about Josh Hawley, who is now a national laughingstock, shows that they are media-savvy and can entice people to watch, including those who claim they “don’t care.”

Only partially true, John McKee. In my case, the hearings have filled in a lot of gaps. And this last one addressed the almost impossible task of reporting on stuff that didn’t happen: a bit like watching an egg, waiting for it to hatch. I was particularly mesmerised (not surprised, mind you) by the out-takes of the Jan 7 speech. Seems it took over an hour to tape a 3-minute address and Ivanka had to work awfully hard to keep her father on the rails.

Th law of diminishing returns, Ellen. Being told over and over what we already know is less than riveting.

Cheney is our ally on this issue only. Remember this. I respect her for standing up for democracy. But I will never respect her positions on abortion, gay marriage, gun regulation, etc. She voted lockstep with TFG 95% of the time.

I agree, Marge. Americans should definitely be grateful for what Cheney and Kinzinger are doing … without ever but ever forgetting that neither one of them is particularly inclined to vote in the interests of ordinary people. Cheney, in particular, voted over 95% in favour of stuff that Trump wanted.

I, too, found this hearing to be just a tad boring but do realise that it’s awfully hard to craft an exciting report on inaction. All told, they did a pretty good job and I look forward to September’s crop of hearings.

The next time someone refers to Hillary’s emails, I hope to be able to respond in a civil manner by referring to the fact that there are no official logs on what Trump was actually doing during those three hours spent watching the boob tube in the private dining room. No phone logs, no photos (!!), no texts, … nothing, zilch, nada.

I commend the two Republicans on the panel, especially Liz Cheney. Too bad she’s not a Democrat. I hope something will come from all of this. Seeing Trump behind bars would be nice.

But I’m glad there will be more hearings.

That went a bit long for night time viewing.

Just when you think the Jan. 6 evidence couldn’t be any more damning, it gets more damning.
