| #20 Remember that this committee will not be continued when the next, Republican-controlled Congress is sworn in in January. So the January 6 House panel is just getting their pre-clusions (since conclusions come after information is collected, not before) on record, suitable for future speeches, op-eds, and political commercials. |

| #18 Turley Dissects How Poor A Case Has Been Made Legally. To me it is c;ear this is about a two year marathon redux of the Mueller Russia-Gate Theater to durty up a Trump Campaign for the great landscape of low-information voters. https://jonathanturley.org/2022/12/20/a-case-of-hope-over-experience-the-j6-criminal-referral-falls-short-of-a-credible-criminal-case-against-trump/ |

| #16 What's being called a "criminal referral" by the Jan 6 committee carries just as much legal weight as a letter written in magic marker by Bozo the Clown. Has no basis at all in any statute or House rule, they just put out a Word document and made up a serious-sounding name for it. Michael Tracey |

| #15 As far as I remember a committee does not have the power to recommend charges be brought against anyone. |

| #14 ...the entire January 6 committee should lose their jobs, pensions, and any other benefits. They should be lined up against the wall and REDACTED. |

| #12 Alan C obstructing an official proceeding, conspiracy to defraud the government–whatever that means–and inciting or assisting an insurrection. Except there was no insurrection despite that Witch Hillary claiming it was "an armed insurrection". |

| #11 There would be no repercussions for them ruprecht (other than a lot of empty talk), and the media would cover their butts and bury those stories anyway. |

| #10 If Trump goes through these trials and comes out not-guilty the entire January 6 committee should lose their jobs, pensions, and any other benefits. Make them pay for partisan witch hunts. |

| #9 Have they ever said what crime he committed? The whole committee should be tried for treason. |

| #6 This was their goal from the beginning. They could have done this without wasting time on hearings. |

| #5 "...unfit for any office" Schiff, Stallwell, Pelosi, Cheney.... OK I think their "irony" gene must be defective. |

| #4 Yes, the LSD's certainly fear him otherwise the 'Never Trump' virus would have moved on long ago. |

| #3 Actually seen as ... The LSD's / DC swamp are scared $hitless what Trump will do when he gets back in office. As side from conducting a much-needed REAL & OPENLY conducted 2020 Election fraud & Treason investigation. He would likely start cleaning out the DC Swamp and arresting those for collecting pocket $$$$$$. |

| #1 Branding him seems barbaric even for these clowns. Besides, we don’t know the chemical composition of the orange stuff. Unless it is French Dressing, heating his skin to 350F may off-gas something truly dangerous. Snark O'The Day |
