Behind-the-scenes details here about talks:
— It was truly a last-minute decision to call witnesses after House Dems debated until 3am whether to call witnesses
- It was ultimately a huge risk, they concluded. A deal to submit statement was safer route
Admission of the statement is only an indication that the statement was made, nothing about its veracity. That is probably not how Ministry of Truth media will spin it, however. Also it had nothing to do with inciting a riot.
