A letter for the congressman, a subpoena is next, kinda hard for him to come to work at the capitol while refusing a subpoena since the Sargent at arms can snatch him if he shows. There are several congress people the committee wants to talk to and when they show up at the capitol while refusing s subpoena... The capitol police and Sargent at arms should be able to enforce congressional subpoenas on the capitol grounds.

"There were 21 Republican state lawmakers who participated in Jan. 6 events, according to a DLCC report. Among those 21 lawmakers, only one has been censured by his home state and that was only after he was arrested after live-streaming himself breaking into the Capitol".

I wonder, if they subpoena a half dozen or more republican congress people to the 1/6 committee and they don't show, could Nancy expel them from the house? Could the Sargent at arms or capitol police arrest them on the capitol grounds to enforce the subpoenas? How would they show up to work in congress while refusing a subpoena?

Here's how some Republican officials could end up with wire fraud charges: law professor

The House Select Committee on Jan. 6 revealed Monday that they are considering wire fraud charges for Republican officials who tried to make money off of the "Big Lie," the false allegation that the 2020 election was fraudulent.
Law professor Jennifer Taub, who penned "Big Dirty Money," explained on Twitter that 18 US Code 1341 and 1343, which made mail fraud and wire fraud a crime, could be applied in the cases of Republicans who lied in their fundraising solicits to get cash.
"Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, transmits or causes to be transmitted by means of wire, radio, or television communication or interstate or foreign commerce, any writings, signs, signals, pictures, or sounds for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both," says the wire fraud part of the law.
Taub also cited the recent New York Times report saying that it seems the committee is looking at possible criminal charges for not only former President Donald Trump but also for Republicans who pushed the false story.
"Whether there was wire fraud by Republicans who raised millions of dollars off assertions that the election was stolen, despite knowing the claims were not true; and whether Mr. Trump and his allies obstructed Congress by trying to stop the certification of electoral votes," said the Times.
While many Republicans used the "big lie" to cash in, it was Trump and the GOP that made the most.
The report goes on to say, “The committee is also examining whether there is enough evidence to make a wire fraud referral over how Mr. Trump’s campaign and the Republican Party raised $255.4 million from donors as he and his allies fund-raised off the false claim that the election had been stolen."

I wonder what Mitch is doing quietly behind the scenes to help the 1/6 committee along, Liz Cheney will protect him and the republican senators, I figure that's part of her job. They both have the same enemies in the GOP and they are all conveniently on the fucking chopping block! I'm sure Liz is keeping Mitch well informed and will keep his hands clean and his senators protected while fucking over her enemies and silencing others, she does have some soft support in the congress, but they are scared silent. Who knows, if the iron lady disposes of these assholes, she might even get reelected, people like courage, it never goes out of fashion, if she's primaried, she should run as an independent and take votes from the GOP. In any case Mitch will take care of her, she might even be a senator one day.

Trump Announces News Conference on Jan. 6 Anniversary
Former President Donald Trump said Tuesday he will hold a news conference on Jan. 6, the anniversary of "the completely unarmed protest of the rigged" 2020 election.
Trump announced his intentions via a statement released by his Save America joint fundraising committee. He said he will discuss alleged voter fraud in the presidential election won by President Joe Biden.
"Why isn't the Unselect Committee of highly partisan political hacks investigating the CAUSE of the January 6th protest, which was the rigged Presidential Election of 2020?" Trump began his statement. "Does anybody notice that they want to stay as far away from that topic as possible, the numbers don't work for them, or even come close. The only thing they can do is not talk about it."
There has been no talk of the committee probing possible election fraud.
"Look at what is going on now in Pennsylvania, Arizona, Georgia, Wisconsin, and, to a lesser extent, Michigan where the numbers are horrendously corrupt in Detroit, but the weak Republican RINOs in the Michigan House and Senate don’t want to touch the subject?" Trump said in his statement.
"In many ways a RINO is worse than a Radical Left Democrat, because you don’t know where they are coming from and you have no idea how bad they really are for our Country. The good news is there are fewer and fewer RINOs left as we elect strong Patriots who love America."
"I will be having a news conference on January 6th at Mar-a-Lago to discuss all of [the alleged election fraud] points, and more," Trump said. "Until then, remember, the insurrection took place on November 3rd, it was the completely unarmed protest of the rigged election that took place on January 6th."

I wonder if he will hang himself again by blurting shit out, or perhaps he will throw somebody under the bus for cooperating with the committee. He will bleat, freak out, play the victim and lie with every breath and try to assert his control over the party. Donald's luck ran out and his time of tribulation is drawing closer every week, of course he's gonna dance, howl and throw as much smoke in the air as he can.Trump Announces News Conference on Jan. 6 Anniversary

Ever watch Mr. Show? That’s where I remember him from. Kind-of unassuming goofball.
David Cross I believe joked about voting for Trump but I think he was just being antagonistic.
I only know him from Bob's Burgers, and now January 6th.

Ok, whom will you shoot? Your neighbor with the "let's go Brandon" flag on his fence? The local constable? That liberal asshole gay guy with his yapping dog?
A marauding band of bakers? Someone behind guarded gates? See, that's where I dont understand this "gonna get my gun" mentality.
