Liz Cheney at Jan. 6 hearing: Trump is 'a 76-year-old man,' not 'an impressionable child'

The House select committee’s series of public hearings resumed Tuesday with panel Vice Chair Liz Cheney telling those watching that the idea that then-President Donald Trump was “incapable of telling right from wrong” while perpetuating the election falsehoods that fueled the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol is “nonsense.”

 

“President Trump is a 76-year-old man,” the Republican congresswoman from Wyoming said in her opening remarks. “He is not an impressionable child. Just like everyone else in our country, he is responsible for his own actions and his own choices.”

    This is not a Jan.6 hearing it's a Trump hearing a Kangaroo hearing and dirty Liz is more of a Democrat than most Democrats.

    But he's gotten this far in life without facing consequences for his life of grifting so the jury is still out on whether that will finally change.

By and large, the powerful and wealthy get by with much more than most of us do but in this case the Jan 6 is also very powerful.   

 

The two witnesses were good.  Not very dynamic, but it was good to hear from people actually on the ground.  It makes it more real and less abstract.

Trump incited Jan. 6 attack after 'unhinged' White House meeting, panel told

WASHINGTON, July 12 (Reuters) - U.S. lawmakers on Tuesday accused Donald Trump of inciting a mob of followers to attack the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, in a last-ditch bid to remain in power as Congress was formally certifying the then-president's election loss.

In video testimony shown by the House of Representatives committee investigating the riot, witnesses described a loud late-night six-hour meeting on Dec. 18, 2020, where Trump disregarded White House staffers who urged him to concede the November 2020 election to Democrat Joe Biden.

Instead, Trump sided with outside advisers who urged him to keep pressing his baseless claims of election fraud. Committee members said Trump ultimately was responsible for the chaos that followed.

Let's not ignore the cherry-bomb at the finale

Liz Cheney: Committee informed DOJ that Trump attempted to contact a witness not yet seen in the hearings

Quote

“That person declined to answer or respond to President Trump’s call, and instead alerted their lawyer to the call. Their lawyer alerted us,” Cheney said. “And this committee has supplied that information to the Department of Justice.”

Oh wait, the DOJ.  Nevermind.

Emotionally yes. Legally no.

New, damning allegations about the final days of Donald Trump's presidency have emerged during the latest hearing about the Capitol riots.

 

One committee member said the latest revelations made Watergate - one of the biggest scandals in US political history - look like "a cub scout meeting".

She’s putting Country and Constitution (the things every elected representative takes an oath to defend) before her personal political career.

 

The GOP has gone so far off into rightwing extremism that Liz Cheney is being applauded by patriots for doing what until 2016 was regarded as expected solemn duty.

 

It’s well past time to turn the investigation onto the enablers of Trump’s crimes in the GOP.

Absolutely. She and Kinzinger are among a very short list of GOP'ers not acting like cowardly spineless maggots willing to do just about anything (including supporting a former traitor president) to cling to power.:bah:

I just had a look at Fox News website. It doesn't report about the hearings, so they may not have any idea about what has been said during hearings.
