Hearing to show Trump’s ‘dereliction of duty’ on Jan. 6, panel says

A House committee’s prime-time hearing Thursday will offer the most compelling evidence yet of then-President Donald Trump’s “dereliction of duty” on the day of the Jan. 6 insurrection, with new witnesses detailing his failure to stem an angry mob storming the Capitol, committee members said Sunday.

The committee says it continues to receive fresh evidence each day and isn’t ruling out additional hearings or interviews with a bevy of additional people close to the president. One such figure is Steve Bannon,The committee also issued an extraordinary subpoena last week toby Tuesday from Jan. 5 and Jan. 6, 2021, following conflicting reports about whether they were deleted.

Luria said the hearing will highlight additional testimony from White House counsel Pat Cipollone and other witnesses, not yet seen before, “who will add a lot of value and information to the events of that critical time on January 6.” She cited Trump’s inaction that day for more than three hours, along with a tweet that afternoon criticizing Vice President Mike Pence for lacking courage to contest Democrat Joe Biden’s win in the 2020 presidential election that may have served to egg on the mob.

“This investigation is very much ongoing,” said Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif. “The fact that a series of hearings is going to be concluded this Thursday doesn’t mean that our investigation is over. It’s very active, new witnesses are coming forward, additional information is coming forward.”

Clown world.

They are all over the map grasping at straws. There was no insurrection, there was a protest. Please research insurrection. No one had a weapon. Except the Government agent that shot & killed an un armed military Veteran. D.N.C. called the riots & looting protests. Think.

Really dragging this thing out.

They raised bail money for them, lol
