Jan. 6 panel formally issues subpoena to Trump
The Hill ^ | 10/21/2022 | REBECCA BEITSCH

Posted on 10/21/2022 11:58:28 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol released its full subpoena to former President Trump, detailing 19 areas of inquiry it wishes to discuss with the former president and asking him to appear for a deposition on Nov. 14.

“As demonstrated in our hearings, we have assembled overwhelming evidence, including from dozens of your former appointees and staff, that you personally orchestrated and oversaw a multi-part effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election and to obstruct the peaceful transition of power,” Chair Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and Vice Chair Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) wrote in the letter accompanying the subpoena.

They pushed this out to have the talking points available from now through the election. They can say all kinds of shit now. Clearly a political move with the Nov 14 date.

Will hear the gnashing of teeth, the clattering of keyboards, and lots of brave talks, but when the President is frog-walked into the committee room, the only sign of "action" will be the sound of the serfs returning to their grazing...

Served a faux subpoena from a illegitimate kangaroo court.

Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

A kangaroo fart.

He needs to tweet out Blow me

I was thinking something along the lines of "I have a two word answer for the esteemed Senator. The first word rhymes with 'blow', and the second word rhymes with 'me'". More polite that way. And, if he ever really gets called on it, he can tell them that he meant 'go thee', as in 'go thee from my sight'. Then, as a follow up, he can tell them that their original interpretation was a result of their dirty disgusting minds. Win-win.

I would love to see this live. Trump walks in, takes oath to tell the truth them immediately claims rights under 5th amendment. NOT ONE WORD SPOKEN BY TRUMP FROM THAT POINT FORWARD. Dead Silence from Trump. Just sits down. They can’t force testimony. Hardest part will be for Trump to remain absolutely silent, but it would be Priceless.

The Kangaroo Court’s Heads will Explode.

It’s not Trump. The one right before he tested positive for Covid was a disaster. He took Biden’s bait, he took Chris Wallace’s too.

The problem is, nobody is paying attention. They’re too worried about the Kardashians or some other BS. The left knows that they have a mindless following who will listen to what they have to say after it’s digested through the democrat propaganda machine media and take it as the truth.

He’s appealing it and is out until all appeals are heard. If anything, it’d be home confinement.

Reagan’s first debate with Mondale was a disaster, to the point, where even Reagan’s people thought he might blow his re-election. Then came the second debate when Reagan said, “I want you to know also I will not make age an issue of this campaign. I am not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent’s youth and inexperience.”, and the rout was on!

Not just a perjury trap. They want to further poison the electorate so even if there’s no valid legal case against him, he’ll never be a president again.

Trump is harmless. He was then and is now. His words to “peacefully and patriotically protest” means more than his attempts to assert his rights through the courts and electoral processes.

No one is arresting political figures who called for unfaithful electors in 2000, 2016. Calling for “peaceful protest” is the exact opposite of attacking the peaceful transition of power.

There are legitimate questions about 2020. Covid was taken advantage of and election law was miraculously mailable in the Democrat favor

People only remember that moment in the Reagan Mondale debates.

Trump didn’t listen to the smart advice he was given, they got under his skin and he didn’t recover. He had an opportunity to put the election away and failed. The loss, whether he can accept it or not, falls on him. The shenanigans happened but we’re not enough to “steal“ the election from him without him doing what he needed to do to appeal to fence sitters.

Jan. 6 panel formally issues subpoena to Trump

The democrats spend a lot of money devising October surprises (plural). I'd love to be a fly on the wall of one of their "October surprise" brainstorming sessions.

Any guesses as to the other "surprises" we're bound to see between now and post election?

He should inform the committee that since it’s formation was not done in accordance with the rules of Congress, the subpoena carries no weight.

What exactly was Trump supposed to do to prevent the election theft? Be specific!
