Jan. 6 panel subpoenas 14 involved in false electors scheme

[Jay Falcon]

The Trump Circus is over. He's been out of office for over a year.

The problem now is the circus in the House or Representatives - obsessing over Trump rather than focusing on real issues. Time for the left to move on and do some work.

This guy thinks that because Trump is out of office he won't be investigated for trying to overturn the election. Too bad.

 

[OrphanSlug]

Good, the more we are learning about how far Trump and enablers were willing to go to break laws the better.

 

[ouch]

Anything crapped into existence by this Kangaroo Court will be ignored as is the sewage flushed in an average toilet.

Does this mean that you disapprove? At least you didn't bring into your cesspool dive DJT's toilet.

I honestly fail to understand why you and only a few others here would object to subpoenaing these 14 folks who obviously committed election fraud, yet to be legally proven but in progress to do so. This is serious stuff, my friend. If they get away with this crap, only more will do the same down the road.

The BIg Lie is that Trump won the election, and that there was substantial voter fraud. That definition has been offered many hundreds of times on this site, and I am surprised you have to ask yet again.

That's certainly one of them, although the one you are supposed to parrot is that there "was no widespread voter fraud". Another is that there was no fraud or inappropriate activity.

The 14 subpoenaed names listed yesterday could be thought of as being clowns. Clowns are humans and humans do commit crimes. I feel that many, if not all, of these named clowns will be considered by the DOJ to receive charges. The bigger pending question at this time is how many of the 14 clowns will refuse to show up before the 1/6 Committee.

The clowns are listed at the top of the subpoena. This recent foolishness that the alternate slates of electors were a 'scheme' or 'forgeries' or 'fraud' - some kind of hidden conspiracy - is ridiculous. And obviously, this has zero connection to the riot on Jan 6.

Good grief. This is a circus!

Has your side tried not committing treason?

So what?

The January 6 commission is supposed to be 'investigating' the capitol event on January 6.

 

[dcsports]

What is 'my side'? (Hint - any time you start an argument with that on a discussion board, you've already lost).

 

[dcsports]

So what?

So what? If the alternate slates of electors had nothing to do with the events on January 6 (which you just acknowledged), why is the January 6 committee getting distracted by it?

Great, great.

Be sure to write your pals while they're in the big house.

How is it a distraction? You have no idea if the two criminal conspiracies are linked.

You know what, the people that claim there was have not, over 60 different lawsuits, have been able to provide ANY evidence for anything. The rhetoric the lawyers gave to the marks to rile them up wasn't repeated in the court room, where there are penalties for lying.

 

[dcsports]

How is it a distraction? You have no idea if the two criminal conspiracies are linked.

The two situations aren't linked.

A congressional committee's purpose isn't to investigate a 'criminal conspiracy'. It's not their job, and they aren't equipped for it.

 

[The AntiDonald]

The January 6 commission is supposed to be 'investigating' the capitol event on January 6.

And everything leading up to it and surrounding it. That is exactly what they are doing. Being that the intent of Jan. 6th was to keep Trump in office, against the will of the people, then why wouldn't they investigate Trump as well?

Are you suggesting all this stuff happened and Trump had no knowledge of it? That's not possible.

The primary purpose may not be to investigate a conspiracy. However, if they stumble across criminal activity, they will document it and refer it to the DOJ.

You just don't want anything Trump to be investigated. I am sure Trump feels the same way. The committee doesn't care how you feel.

 

[Torus34]

Perhaps, based upon recent comments by Mr. Donald Trump, the people in question have nothing to fear. Should they be charged with any crime and found guilty, Mr. Trump may pardon them should he win election in 2024.

So much for the rule of law. Given an authoritarian 'strong man' in the white house, it is superseded by his whim.

Regards, stay safe 'n well 'n remember the Big 5..

Blame Trump and his idiot minions for that. He started the whole Big Lie business.

There was no widespread fraud; as even Trump's own commission concluded before being disbanded. Sixty+ spurious court appearances also failed to deliver what Trump wanted, and his bent cronies were laughed out of court every time.

The president signed an order to end the White House commission even though he said there was “substantial evidence of voter fraud,” which experts say is rare.

Wrong.

You sound desperate.

No, it was supposed to investigate that incident. That's why it's become a circus. Democrats are wrapping in other, unrelated, and legal activity. They're using it as a political tool.

 

[dcsports]

The primary purpose may not be to investigate a conspiracy. However, if they stumble across criminal activity, they will document it and refer it to the DOJ.

You just don't want anything Trump to be investigated. I am sure Trump feels the same way. The committee doesn't care how you feel.

You implied - said - they were investigating 'criminal conspiracy'. Again - not their job. They aren't equipped for it.

Sure, if they stumble across something illegal, they should refer it to the DOJ. However, they're talking out of both sides on this one - searching for some kind of criminal activity. They're also trying to label things as criminal without any proof or evidence that it's so.

 

[dcsports]

Blame Trump and his idiot minions for that. He started the whole Big Lie business.

So you're going with, "Sure! But he started it!"?

Trump is out of office, and that circus has been over. It left town. The Biden train wreck has been here for over a year now.
