On a Thursday Zoom call with progressive activists, Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., said the upcoming hearings by the Jan. 6 select committee probing the riot at the U.S. Capitol staged by supporters of former President Donald Trump will “blow the roof off the House.”
“We are going to do everything we can to subpoena all the information we need and to enforce our subpoenas. But even if we don’t get every last person in there, we are going to have hearings that I believe will be compared to the Watergate hearings, because they are going to blow the roof off the House in terms of explaining to America what actually happened in the attack on our democracy,” Raskin, who sits on the committee, told an audience of approximately 40,000 people who watched his remarks on Facebook.
“I hope everybody will watch and I hope everybody will discuss it and then it will lead to a report that, I hope again, will be a game changer in terms of American history,” Raskin said.
In response to questions about holding Trump personally accountable for pushing the disproven claim that he lost the 2020 presidential election due to voter fraud, which served as motivation for the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol, Raskin promised “a reckoning.”
“But you know, the guy’s a walking crime wave, and he has committed crimes all over the country, including sexual harassment and assault on a lot of people. There’s bank fraud and there’s real estate fraud and there’s tax fraud,” Raskin said.
“And there are prosecutors all over the country, looking at all that stuff. I don’t want us to fetishize Donald Trump that much — he will meet you know, his maker, one place or another, there will be accountability and a reckoning with the law.”

Just like the Russian collusion hearings.
When will this happen?
Yup - they’re taking the nuclear option.
Let the circus and destruction of the United States begin.
Ramping up the shock troops for their next assault when all that doesn’t happen.
Let me add - if the Dems succeed in this then WHEN the GOP takes control of the house they should immediately convene a congressional investigation of the Summer of 2020 and the Democrats complicity in ACUTAL INSURRECTION AND SEDITION AND SUBVERTING THE ELECTION.
Eye for an eye.
What a loon.
The lesson the Democrats took from the sham impeachments seems to be that they didn't fabricate enough evidence.
>>>Eye for an eye.<<<
This could very well happen if we see a huge influx of MAGA candidates all endorsed by 45. Otherwise, it will just be business as usual with the same cowardly lions that pretend to care about America’s interests.
Nothing. Burger.
They will make all kinds of inferences, but there’s nothing material.
I understand that Pelosi is officially “off limits” for the committee, so the investigation will not be complete. That makes it a partisan witch hunt.
“But you know, the guy’s a walking crime wave, and he has committed crimes all over the country, including sexual harassment and assault on a lot of people. There’s bank fraud and there’s real estate fraud and there’s tax fraud,” Raskin said.
And the two impeachment shams.
Politics.
That’s all you’re doing Raskins. Playing politics.
Turnabout is fair play.
Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind.
That’s exactly what this is turning out to be. BTW- this is how desperate the LW media is; penning an article about a zoom call by a far left politician with left wing activists.

In other words, NO. We got squat.
