White House orders release of Trump records to Jan. 6 committee
The Hill ^ | 10.08.2021 | REBECCA BEITSCH AND MORGAN CHALFANT

The White House has ordered presidential record keepers to release a trove of Trump-era documents to the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, arguing unique circumstances compel their disclosure.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Friday the administration would back the committee’s sweeping efforts.

"As a part of this process, the president has determined an assertion of executive privilege is not warranted for the first set of documents from the Trump White House that have been provided to us by the National Archives,” Psaki said.

Is this decision theirs to make?

The Deep State has one more chance to really whip this up, January 6, 2022. I don’t see this amounting to anything. $4.00/gallon gas will blunt a lot of the impact of AOC recounting her weird rape fantasies.

Statements taken out of context will be twisted into evidence of planning an insurrection.

This is how they blunt efforts to hold them accountable.

Yeah - BS.

That’s why Obama NEVER released his documents to the national archives and would handle it himself.

Crickets on Hunter's not so unique circumstances.

Leave it to SloJo to be spoonfed a way to compound one travesty with another.

Certainly no laws for Dems. Laws are for the little people.

Trump’s enemies have to be careful with this witch hunt. If they can’t control the information, then they lose control of the narrative.

Their narrative is insurrection which is complete nonsense. Its hyperbole of the highest order.

The Jan 6 protests had multiple angles.

1) The provocateurs were the small number of hoodlums busting out windows and mixing it up with police. Pay attention to the sentencing of these individuals.

2) The DC cops retreated at every defensive junction, which tells me they were told to stand down or some of them were in on it. Probably a combination.

3) 500 protesters didn’t crawl their fat bodies through little windows to enter the Capitol Building. Somebody opened or broke a main door to get the necessary number of trespassers in.

4) If people were scared of dying that day. Which is laughing in itself.

Why were Romney and Pence laughing as they went down the hallway?

Answer: It was a staged event by the American establishment.

They will move to indict some of the Trumps and especially Donald. I have worried for some time that if Donald causes them enough pain, they will do a dynamic 3AM raid like on Roger Stone and march him away and strip search him in prison and leak the video. If that isn't enough, they will just kill him in a deniable manner. The Marxist dictators are playing for keeps and will not let go without extreme violence IMO.

“They will move to indict some of the Trumps and especially Donald.”

If they do, let’s hope a couple hundred thousand Trump supporters show up to “assist” the feds and that Governor DeSantis refuses to extradite him. I don’t think the Left will try it. Biden is way too weak as even a figurehead. Harris isn’t an improvement for them.

tricking biden into exposing the truth would do more damage and cause extensive suffering for the hypocrites, liars, and thieves...

As with everything Trump, we are breaking new ground in American history. It has nothing to do with Jan 6th, this is about finding something to embarrass Trump with. This is why the dems run private servers. If they break Executive Privilege and repubs win back the house, they could use this to get biden’s records of the Afghan withdraw. I know, sometimes I crack myself up. The spinless repubs would never do anything like that.
