For those that may not have been around for the Watergate Hearings, today's Hearing is the equivalent of and in fact well beyond the John Dean "there is a cancer on the Presidency" testimony to the Senate Watergate Committee.

Stark, stunning testimony from Trump WH Counsel Jacob. Absolutely INDIGNANT testimony from Judge Luttig, one of the most respected Conservative Jurists in the country. Luttig for his part is truly beside himself that these absurd Eastman theories were at all considered even marginally credible or had any Constitutional standing or basis in Law. Luttig eventually and generously considering his mood, called the entirety of the Eastman arguments "Constitutional Mischief".

Luttig for his part and ultimately Jacobs also struck at the heart of the BULLSHIT historical precedent of the Election of 1800. Luttig ultimately said that if he had been around in 1800, he would have "thrown his very body in front of the 1800 controversy which he clearly did not see should have been controversial. Jacob in words not as full of outrage, agreed!

DOJ smack the middle of the 3rd public hearing basically BEGS the Select Committee for its depositions from witnesses saying in their request on bent knee that Thera are prosecutions IN PROCESS that the Select Committee depositions bear upon.

Meanwhile Ginni Thomas checks in claiming that she would love to appear before the Committee to "clear up discrepancies". Sure you would Ginni. Either you are truly cuckoo for cocco puffs or you are bluffing.

So...according to you, people gave their opinions.

Big deal.

We get opinions every day from the Trump hating media.

They gave sworn testimony and depositions. Lets see if Jim Jordan or John Eastman or any of the Willard War Room Bozo's do likewise. Mr Jacob is a material witness and Judge Luttig is an expert witness.

The post is the quote box above is today's equivalence your post from yesterday about the "1776 plan" in which you claimed that the Capitol building itself was not mentioned completely ignoring the fact that the Senate and House office buildings specified to be occupied in the plan were joined to the Capitol building by the very tunnels with which Congressmen and Senators were evacuated on 1/6.

You can pull your pants up off your ankles now.

You had me at “Watergate”, then the pants and ankles thing really threw me for a loop.

I love your effort and enthusiasm.
 
shrug...

From what you posted, it's STILL just opinions.
Again, Jacob is a material witness and Luttig is an expert witness. You still have not explained your take on the 1776 plan. So your credibility is kinda' of shaky on the entire topic.

and I love your lack of context or content.
 
Everyone is an expert witness for their own opinion.
The notion of an expert witness is an accepted concept in this country. Are you denying that? If not, what the hell are you saying?

Are you denying that Luttig is one of the most respected Conservative Jurists in the country?
 
Oh. look....here is Eastman taking the 5th one hundred times. How quant.
 
I've been tuning in and out, but the three biggest takeaways were...

1) Eastman's plot was 100% illegal and unconstitutional.
2) Eastman was 100% cognizant of its illegality.
3) The plot, promoted by trump, and its ultimate (and inevitable) failure led directly to the riot.

I'm sure I missed a bunch, but those are the three I got from my limited watching.

What has the dog and pony show said about the 1776 plan?

Just pointing out that your comments about this hearing are as relevant and have as much bearing as your comments about the 1776 plan....in other words....NONE

You missed it all. 100% guaranteed.

Hearsay and hypotheticals.

What about the Democrats plan?

Its OK. We know the Trump crowd can't handle the truth. This hearing is not for the Trumpets. They are LOST forever.

I suggest you look up the definitions of the big words you're using.

Oh...so you are deflecting. Yeah...that's to be expected.

Well, that must mean everything he says in hypotheticals is truth.

Is that really truth?
Is projection truth?
Is lying truth?
Is gaslighting truth?

And all he can do is give his opinion? Not much of a witness if that's all he has.

He’s there because he wrote a memo to Pence outlining, in his opinion, what the legal responsibilities of the VP are. For no other reason.
