??? You don't think that they will @Hoodat ??

No.  The Legislative Branch does not have the authority to charge anyone with a crime.  That is left to the Executive Branch.

From what I've read, it's up to AG Garland.  Any doubts?

I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Charging Trump?  Quite possible.  Prosecuting Trump?  Again, good luck with that.

Symbolic criminal referrals?

They still don't have an honest-to-God true bill case, after seven years of digging, innuendo, and wild-assed accusations.


This is very true. But I truly think that the media will spin this in a way that will damage Trump. Most people will not dig into the nuts and bolts.

As mentioned earlier, Garland might have to answer COI questions for any kind of prosecutorial actions......

Nothing more vindictive than a scorn SCOTUS nominee candidate.

Not sure how the US invasion of Virginia which led to the bloodiest war in US history compares to two unarmed protesters murdered by Capitol Police.

Yes, let's compare the body count of Jan. 6 vs. say, Antietam.  :pondering:

Friendly reminder that the entire point of the J6 Cmte is to distract from 2020 election fraud, demonize a Patriot movement, justify the weaponization of federal law enforcement against Americans, and imprison the opposition leader that tried to stop the regime’s coup

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
