Ex DHS head Jeh Johnson 'concerned' J6 committee 'overreached' with unprovable Hutchinson testimony
2022-07-08
[BIZPACREVIEW] Jeh Johnson, a lawyer who was the Homeland Security secretary in the B.O. regime, has expressed doubts about the way the partisan January 6 committee presented the "vivid" testimony of ex-White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson.

To much corporate media fanfare, Hutchinson luridly claimed that President Trump had attempted to grab the steering wheel from the driver as Secret Service escorted him from the January 6, 2021, rally back to the White House, and that he lunged at an agent.

During the standard anti-Trump roundtable on NBC’s "Meet the Press," Johnson — who is otherwise a big fan of the investigation into what he described as an event that met the definition of "insurrection" — implied that the committee itself may have metaphorically lunged.

"I’m concerned as the former federal prosecutor in me — that gets you a lot of cred these days on television — I’m concerned that the committee may have overreached on the incident in the vehicle," he said in the video clip embedded above.

"It was colorful; it was vivid, it was collateral to the central charge, and it was second-hand hearsay," he added, in that Hutchinson did not personally witness the things she told the committee.

#1  Trump! Trump! Trump!
In the prison cell I sit, thinking Mother, dear, of you,
And our bright and happy home so far away,
And the tears, they fill my eyes 'spite of all that I can do,
Tho' I try to cheer my comrades and be gay.

Trump, Trump,Trump, the boys are marching,
Cheer up, comrades, they will come,
And beneath the starry flag we shall breathe the air again
Of the free land in our own beloved home.

In the battle front we stood, when their fiercest charge they made,
And they swept us off a hundred men or more,
But before we reached their lines, they were beaten back dismayed,
And we heard the cry of vict'ry o'er and o'er.

Trump, Trump,Trump, the boys are marching,
Cheer up, comrades, they will come,
And beneath the starry flag we shall breathe the air again
Of the free land in our own beloved home.

So within the prison cell we are waiting for the day
That shall come to open wide the iron door,
And the hollow eye grows bright, and the poor heart almost gay,
As we think of seeing home and friends once more.

Trump, Trump,Trump, the boys are marching,
Cheer up, comrades, they will come,
And beneath the starry flag we shall breathe the air again
Of the free land in our own beloved home.

Composed in 1863, at a point in the War when many men from both armies had exchanged the dangers of life in the field for the rigors of life in the prison camps, this song is possibly the most famous prison song ever written. It quickly caught on with the public and with the soldiers as well, who found that its catchy tune made it an ideal marching song.

And now song of the framed victims of 1/6.
