I want this depo to be videtaped

It’s unclear what limits there may be on his closed-door testimony, which is scheduled for about half a day, according to one person familiar with the matter. The session will be videotaped, but there will be some limits on what he will testify to regarding direct conversations with former president Donald Trump.

He's afraid to face the people of the United States and have to speak truth about the Republicans' violent attempt to overthrow the United States of America. He's a coward. He's weaseling. He's a Republican.

He may be a piece of shit republican but he was trying to keep the orange motherfucker from leading an armed seditious mob to the Capitol to stop the certification.

Maybe he was doing it for the wrong reasons, but he was the one note of caution against the sedition that day.

And it appears people didn't listen to him. He may have very valuable testimony towards frame of mind, intentions, etc.
