Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.
I hate to say it, but I was wrong about when the farcical House's January 6 Committee would call it a day.
Previously, I had written that the laughably lauded lefty lumpenausschuss would wrap things up in September to give a desperately needed defibrillator jolt to the Democrats before the November vote.
After Hurricane Ian delayed the last week in September wrap-up(ish) meetings, that "September surprise" option evaporated, leaving the ThumpBumpDump Trump-ists on the committee desperately searching for some sort of pre-midterm relevance.
And whaddayaknow? They found something to grab a headline and cling to the news cycle: let's subpoena former president Donald Trump.
Since the whole thing was about Trump supposedly trying to violently overturn the results of the 2020 election, flush the whole concept of American democracy, and remain in office surrounded by piles of ill-gotten cash and mounds of Russian hookers until his death — at which point Ivanka would be installed — it would seem that thinking about asking to talk to him a bit earlier in the process would have aided the committee's quest for the truth.
But, serendipitously, they did not, so they now have a headline to offer the media. True, the D.C. media will have to hold off on running their already written "Trump Really, Really, Really Did It and Liz Cheney Is a Hero" stories, but all they have to do is change a few dates and run them anyway — easy peasy. Like every other Demon Trump article ever.

This will be over after the midterm election unless Trump decides to run again.
He is running. There is no one else that will challenge him effectively. The GOP has a bench of rising star rookies which will need about 4 years to develop in time for 2028.
Jeb Bush/John Kasich.
Their actions could backfire. The whole world is watching!
You forgot the /sarc tag.
LOL.
Jan 6 committee isn’t just about Trump and the protesters in 2021. This is a warning, a harbinger of things to come if you oppose the Deep State, the ‘We-Bes’ in the TLAs.
Watching CSpan to hear the nonsense from Leftist viewers tells me we’re in two different realities.
bkmk
Is the Trump subpoena the “October Surprise” we’ve been expecting? Is this the best they’ve got?
The Republican party often forgets the /s tag,too.
The lefties over at DemocratUnderachievers are totally wetting themselves over the request to the JustUs department to subpoena Trump. To those double-digit IQ types, a ‘subpoena’ equates to guilt. So skip the trial and proceed directly to the execution.
Most of them don’t know that a subpoena is only a request to attend and possibly testify. It carries only slightly more legal weight (and consequences) than a strongly worded letter that requests attendance.
OK, maybe over simplifying a bit but not much.
