A 300 to 135 GOP advantage would be a lock if say this was all flipped - the Ds trying to take the House but all Deep State Communications (Twitter, Google, Legacy Media) all going 24/7 with the worst economy since 1933. So the Ds strategy is stave off historical embarrassment. You're voting for insurrectionists you see. You're also a racist. And hate gays. And I just paid $15 at the store for 2 lbs of ground chicken and a bag of sugar. 15 freaking dollars for that. Everything is fine.

It did have about 20 million plus viewers across all the networks which is pretty piss poor all things considered. How many watched the impeachment trials? What are we comparing viewership to? TBH, I haven't watched either. I tend to read about this stuff on my free time, not watch it on a scheduled time.

Plus, what's the point of watching something if we already know the outcome?

And isn't their goal to bring different charges to Trump and/or stop him from being able to run again for president? It seems like there's definitely a pending outcome here that's different than the impeachment trials.

From what I've heard they haven't yet revealed any shocking new evidence as it just seems to be typical political theater. Dems wanting to take the focus off inflation, gas prices, stock market decline, etc... Republicans just wanting to put that day behind them to move on to the midterms without Trump's stupid election fraud claims coming back into focus. 1

At least with the impeachment trial, it was actually a trial with a prosecution and defense team…and could’ve resulted in the removal of the President (otherwise known as the political overturning of an election). What’s the result here? Some partisan congressional panel declares that Trump can’t run again in a couple of years? When gas is $8.00 per gallon ….who the frick cares!!! 1
BillsFanNC Posted June 12, 2022 Author Posted June 12, 2022 So many people will dismiss this information because it comes from a source that they dismiss out of hand. But what is she really sharing here? Information from the NYT and then providing context by telling you who exactly these people are that the NYT told you are running the J6 show at DOJ. 1 1

They can't do that unless he's convicted. And what's the issue when, if Trump becomes President in 2024, he won't be contesting the results of the 2028 election? They won't be able to create more fake scandals?

We already knew he'd be acquitted in the Senate so I didn't waste my time with the hearings. Removing him in the last couple of weeks in his presidency would've been political suicide for the GOP with his diehard supporters. People have already made their minds up after January 6th so I agree these congressional hearings are pointless. Edited June 12, 2022 by Doc Brown 1

But let me ask you: In less than 150 days, when the Republicans take back the majority in the House do you think the major networks will gift them many evenings of prime time coverage of the same hearings in which each gets less than 1/20th of the voters to watch ? I’m guessing not. 1

B-Man Posted June 13, 2022 Posted June 13, 2022 There are a lot of problems with the Jan. 6 Committee, not the least of which it is a compromised, biased group that has only been appointed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). You’re not talking about an independent investigation looking for the truth. I’m not even sure we have objective law enforcement doing that anymore in this case. This is a political show trial meant to do what it can to help the Democrats’ chances in the midterms. As I noted, they started off being deceptive in terms of how they presented what President Donald Trump said that day, leaving out him calling for people to act “peacefully,” and after the riot started, telling people to “go home” in “peace.” That showed you right off the bat that they weren’t going to have an honest presentation–but a Hollywood hatchet production with the help of a former ABC official. But they’ve released a list of some of the witnesses that they’re going to call on Monday, and it has at least one witness who should set off all kinds of conflict red flags. It also says a lot about how they operate. more at the link: https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2022/06/12/surprise-witness-called-by-j6-committee-reveals-big-conflict-for-liz-cheney-n577833
Doc Posted June 13, 2022 Posted June 13, 2022 So, not playing Trump's words to "peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard," using camera tricks to remove Ray Epps from a critical moment on J6 and Cheney calling on the campaign adviser of a rival after a poll comes out showing she's getting trampled. Yep, totally legit. 2

We have a majority Republican Supreme Court as payback for Senator Biden and Senator Kennedy and others for the Bork and Clarence Thomas hearings. Blows my mind that our President and several members of Congress (Mitch McConnell) were there for the Bork hearing. I remember that. It was a long freakin' time ago. We need term limits IMHO. I try to impose them in the ballot box but have not had much siuccess. 1
