Rep. Jamie Raskin On New Jan. 6 Witnesses: 'It's Like A Waterfall Of Truth' - All In - MSNBC



“It’s like a waterfall of truth at this point,” says Rep. Jamie Raskin. “When you have more than a 1,000 witnesses coming in and telling you what happened, it’s the tiny handful of people who are either lying or refusing to participate who begin to feel very nervous about the situation.” - Aired on 07/28/2022.

Rep. Raskin said. I think he was implying that the Committee has hesitated in sharing info until a certain point because the DoJ had leaks and they don't. That was interesting and it seems that there is still a set of problem children still squatting in the DoJ.

And if you notice, during any interviews with members of the J6 Committee they are very careful about what they can say. They don't want to mess this up and they've done one incredible job.

Which is why I think he was making that comment. The Committee has been great at keeping it under wraps and their presentation is stellar. And we get a season two!

And the country, for the most part, is tuning in. I think the tide is turning - and, like you said, we get a second season! Before the hearings, Raskin said that we'd be blown away by what they had - and that was only in the beginning, season two promises to be even more compelling and they're learning more - especially from the new cabinet/administration witnesses that we're just learning about - and they're working their way "to the top..."
