If nothing else the hearings thus far have achieved something notable.

Show me where a political party is being prosecuted?

Tucker Carlson: Why are Jan. 6 protesters still in jail while murderers walk free?

Talk about dumb.

 

[The Original Tree]

Putting aside the overwhelming evidence of Trump's legal exposure for the failed coup, the sworn testimony given by former members of Don's admin has blown a giant hole in the credibility of right wing media outlet's duplicitous spin on the events leading to 1/6 and on 1/6 itself.
I say this fully understanding those outlets are still spinning. What else can they do? It's either that or admit the narrative they have been fomenting, really since Trump announced his candidacy, is an enormous pile of steaming horseshit. I say this also fully understanding the gullible rubes who believe 1/6 was just another day of tourists visiting the Capital will continue swilling the spin. What else can they do?
Their willingness to deny, deflect, distort, to turn the truth on its head, is splashed all over this board on a daily basis. They are so locked in to the fatuous narrative they've been espousing for years they have no choice but to accept the truth or go down with the ship. So far it appears they have chosen to drown.

Hard to imagine you can even type while cleaning Putin's dingleberries off of his ass.

It's not a trial.....

but you know that, already....

If the DOJ takes any case up, they will get due process.

How's your conspiracy theory trial going?

America is seeing the real lunacy of The DemNazi Globalist Party now.

 

[Chillicothe]

How's your conspiracy theory trial going?

I'm not exactly sure what the poster OTree is referencing above. What trial?


If I had to guess on his reference, I think it is the House Select Committee on January 6th hearings?
If that is what he has in mind, well, I can share this:

"In its two most-recent hearings, the House Jan. 6 committee investigating the Capitol attack described former President Donald Trump's election disinformation campaign and his team's efforts to pressure former Vice President Mike Pence into refusing to certify Joe Biden's win.

The Jan. 6 committee's schedule for its next two hearings is:

• Tuesday, June 21, at 1 p.m. ET
• Thursday, June 23, at 1 p.m. ET

The committee has completed three hearings so far.

Though there's still much unknown about what the next Jan. 6 hearings may reveal, but Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., laid out a loose framework for what we might expect.

Tuesday's hearing will examine the pressure Trump and his allies placed on state level officials to overturn the election results, according to Cheney."

Tucker Carlson: Why are Jan. 6 protesters still in jail while murderers walk free?

Talk about dumb.

This Tucker Carlson?

For a year now, Fox News’ Tucker Carlson has been the loudest voice in the right-wing media’s campaign to rewrite and reframe the January 6, 2021, riot in the U.S. Capitol. From virtually the day of the events, Carlson has thrown a mess of misinformation -- conspiracy-mongering, minimization, obfuscation — at the riot in the hopes of delegitimizing any serious inquiry into the events of that day. Over that period he has shifted from condemning the violent protest to describing the riot as nothing more than “elderly people who showed up with signs,” to producing a three-part torture-porn series calling the event a “false flag.”

Carlson’s current fixation on the false flag theory is not an earnest attempt to link outside actors, the FBI or the Department of Justice to the events of January 6; instead, it’s about creating as many sidebars as possible to avoid dealing with the responsibility of amplifying lies about a stolen election that led to an attack on the American seat of government. We’ve laid out the evolution of Carlson’s coverage of January 6 here, from his initial efforts to muddy the waters through his pivot toward conspiracy theory and the adoption of the false flag theory.

He won because he's a sleazy lying commie scumbag?

Media Matters is less credible than Brian Stelter.

I'll take that as a "yes."

Pffft.... Yeah just like Hillary got tried for her bull crap, and Nancy for her insider bull crap, and Cuomo for his bull crap, and on and on the clown show goes.

 

[beagle9]

But not for the lack of trying. We are learning more about the failed attempt every day. You do know trying but failing to overthrow the government is still illegal, right? I noticed you didn't say "no crime was committed."

Overthrow the government pffft.... Listen at yourself, and see just how stupid you sound.

When did they try?

 

[bripat9643]

It's a hearing. Your side CHOSE not to participate.... Purposely. So people like you could be good little minions, and push the narrative of "unfairness" when the truth came out. You should hate being their pawn.

It's not a hearing when only one party is allowed to question witnesses or subpoena them. It's a show trial

Here's my standard reply. If you can't specifically refute what the article says, rather than disparage the source, you might as well just pee down your leg.

Are you suggesting the witnesses, Repub, former members of the Trump admin, are lying? Or are not telling the whole truth? If so, don't you find it odd they all corroborate each other's testimony?

There's no need to refute Media Matters sewage. It's self-refuting.

So of a trial doesn't follow the rules of evidence, then it's valid?

 

[beagle9]

When did they try?

Exactly right, otherwise they may have wanted to disrupt and harass a process in which they felt was a complete sham, but overthrow the whole of the government apparatus is one hell of an accusation that borders on insanity.

We've had over "the summer of love" many instances of BLM, ANTIFA, the Pussy Hat's, and every other activist group attempting to stop a process of some government sort, and most recently we have the illegal protest at the justices home's etc. Hypocrisy off the chain with these people. It's all political.

That's what I thought. You can't refute the facts.
