Startling aspect of Jack Smith's hearing revealed by Dem

A top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee revealed a startling aspect of the hearing on Thursday with former special counsel Jack Smith during an interview on CNN.

…

"None of them actually disputed Jack Smith's findings," Lieu said. "He issued an entire report, volume one of his report. They didn't even talk about that report. They didn't dispute that Donald Trump engaged in a conspiracy to try to get fake electors and fake documents to overturn this election."

…

Lieu, a former prosecutor, was having none of it.

"It's idiotic what these Republicans are saying," he said.

1. I am proud to be a Democrat and honored to be represented by smart people like Rep. Lieu

Funny how his name is buried in the story, not in the Subject line or 1st paragraph.

2. He made sure the Epstien files were mentioned

Ted Lieu and Eric Sawell called out the rethugs hypocrisy in a masterful way.

4. 'Twas ever thus.......

At LEAST back to Nixon.

All of them, with the possible exception of Rawny Rayguns, have been craven power-drunken democracy-destroyers. Reagan was a doddering old fool who was too stupid and addled to be one, but he was all too happy to enable others to be, and he held the door open for them.
