Why the final hearing of the Jan. 6 Committee show trial got postponed: They say it was due to the hurricane in Florida...
American Thinker ^ | 09/28/2022 | Rajan Laad

Just yesterday, the House Jan. 6 committee announced that it is postponing its ninth and final public hearing, originally scheduled to be held and televised on September 28 at 1 P.M. E.T.

Surprisingly or perhaps unsurprisingly, the website for the Committee had no information about the reason for postponement.

The website carried has a succinct caption: "*POSTPONED* 09/28/22 SELECT COMMITTEE HEARING."

Perhaps they do not want the reason for the postponement to be part of official government records?

They chose to reveal the reasons for the postponement to the Washington Post, their propaganda wing that masquerades as a news outlet.

People often claim that the media have a Democrat bias.  This is because they erroneously assume that the mainstream media and the Democrats are disparate entities and the Democrats are somehow influencing the media.

That cannot be farther from the truth.

The fact is, news media function like a department within the Democrat party. At times, the "news media" lead, and the Democrats in D.C. follow, and vice versa.

There is perfect synchronicity between their utterances.

They frequently use identical phraseology for any given incident. Words such as "collusion" or "insurrection" did not occur to them simultaneously or by coincidence.

A nefarious but adept Democrat wordsmith and mastermind supplied this terminology, and the media assiduously followed. They obediently repeated these terms until they became almost official jargon. Even Republicans repeat them unknowingly.

In a joint statement, the January 6 committee leadership stated the following:

"In light of Hurricane Ian bearing down on parts of Florida, we have decided to postpone tomorrow's proceedings," said Chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., and Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., who vice-chairs the committee. "We're praying for the safety of all those in the storm's path."

No new date has been announced.

It is customary to postpone live entertainment shows following natural disasters, as a mark of respect to those suffering.

But the hurricane hasn't hit Florida yet.  Florida is almost 900 miles away from Washington, D.C., where the hearing is to take place.  Most importantly, the trial is not an entertainment show.

The Democrats claim that the hearings have been conducted in defense of democracy and the Constitution.

Why then would they postpone an event of such monumental importance?

Agree, however instead of referring to ‘democrats’, I’d refer to the Uni-party, or republicrats. GOPe plus ‘Rats.

It’s a big club, and those of us at the grass roots republican level are not in it.

Correct. It’s not meant to be entertaining, it’s meant to bludgeon the audience with an Important Message, like a Medieval morality play.

But aren’t we supposed to be on the edge of our seats, waiting for the next episode of the Liz Cheney show??

And this may be her last best chance to audition to be on MSNBC when her political career is over.

The Jan. 6th committee needs publicity for their "show trial"
and can't theatrically compete with hurricane headlines.
Both the hurricane and the Jan.6th committee are big bags of wind !

Liz was busy drawing presidential posters for her 2024 run.

Nanny was busy prepping for her next gig — Ambassador to Italy — and she plans to work vigorously to impeach that new extreme right wing Italian PM.

Kinzinger was busy plucking lint out of his bellybutton.

Shifty was busy trying to find the remote to his TV.

It’s essentially the Media Mogul-Dem Party. The media moguls tell the DNC what they want done, and the political part of the alliance pushes that agenda. The political Dems themselves haven’t had an original thought in decades, and at this point probably aren’t even capable of an independent thought or action. That’s why that party always marches in lock step with one another, they never attack, denounce, or apologize for one another no matter what outrageous action or utterance has been committed.

On the other hand, republicans are always ready, almost chomping at the bit to tear into anyone on their side denouncing them, condemning them, or apologizing for them. Usually, this is the result of a threat by the moguls to tar the offender as a “racist”, “homophobe”, “antisemite” or any number of names that send republicans to cower in the corner.

So, essentially the moguls exercise near total control over both parties. The Dem Party are their loyal dogs who do their bidding, and the GOP is their controlled opposition, their role is to only give us the illusion that the Media Mogul-Dem Party doesn’t control everything.

I rather imagine that they want to be the ONLY ‘ill wind blowing’ when they re-Konvene their Kangaroo Kourt.

Look at where obama is storing 33 million documents. A non secure abandon former furniture warehouse.
Trump location was his huge home and the docs in a locked room and his place guarded by the secret service.
So will the FBI raid obama’s place?

Watch Obama caught RED-HANDED in DIRTY ‘money for declassification’ crime...
