Briefly caught John Bolton on CNN warning that the Jan 6th Committee could OverReach.

Not sure, but it seemed like Bolton was threatening retaliation from angry Trumpers, if the Committee indicted Trump and Co. Did anyone else catch this? I was left wondering what indictments Bolton would be seeking if Obama Supporters had stormed the Capitol in order to retain him in permanent power??

I smell Republican fear; the air is thick with it.

If one of the members said "The committee has thus-and-such information and we will show that thus-and-such happened," the committee has produced the evidence or the testimony they have, and shown just what the committee said it would show. There's no overreach there; the committee has built its case and its report on rock-solid evidence and testimony.

I think Bolton's just jealous that he and his war-mongering pals in the Bush II administration didn't have anything near this kind of evidence when they started war criming. Of course, it didn't matter in the end, as a supine "independent" media covered their invasions in just the way the criminals wanted it covered.

He's an idiot.

Where was Bolton during Trump's impeachments? His voice might have changed the results. If Bolton loves this country, he failed when his time of trial came up.

Fuck Bolton.
