Republican gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano reportedly ended his interview with the January 6 committee after just 15 minutes.

The Pennsylvania state senator wanted to record the deposition about his actions on January 6, 2021, at the U.S. Capitol or wait until after the November election, but the House select committee declined his offer.

A source told CNN that Mastriano "didn't answer a single question" during his virtual appearance before the committee.

His attorney Tim Parlatore sent a letter last week saying the GOP gubernatorial candidate, who frequently streams his public appearances on Facebook, would not testify unless it could be recorded.

1. And what did his big orange supporter say about those unwilling to answer questions? Hummmm

2. This Was All For Show

To prove he's Trumpy enough for all the hard core MAGA folks.

Mission accomplished.

We'll see how the sane half of the PA electorate reacts to this.

3. Grandstanding 101

Fuel for the next grift of the rubes.

4. I just read in another DU article that his attorney, Tim Parlatore, was being

interviewed by the Trump team for him to be trump's criminal attorney.

Will there be a conflict of interest???

5. Should had require him show up in person.

6. Is the committee satisfied or will another subpoena be issued?

7. If he pled the 5th, then he's got leeway, but...

it sounds like he simply refused to cooperate.

If that's the case, the committee could, and should, proceed with a contempt citation.

8. That would be icing on the cake!
