Jan. 6 select committee hearing exposes proof beyond a reasonable doubt of Trump's treasonous crimes




The January 6 House select committee investigating the insurrection held a remarkable public hearing today, presenting a compelling chronological narrative detailing Donald Trump's "premeditated plan" to steal the election. The hearing included dramatic new footage of Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer making frantic phone calls to state governors and federal officials, begging and pleading for law enforcement resources to come to the Capitol, which was under violent attack by Trump's foot soldiers.

This video uses the words of the committee members in relating the evidence they have amassed of Donald Trump's democracy-busting crimes. It also discusses the likelihood that Donald Trump will testify now that he has been subpoenaed by the committee.

Note: please excuse the lighting glitch that surfaces near the end of this video. - Glenn Kirschner - 10/13/2022.

The J6 committee subpoenaed Trump for 3 reasons;

1. To call him a snowflake when he doesn't show.
2. To get Merrick Garland's attention.
3. When they issue their final report they can make assertions about Trump and have the excuse that if Trump disagrees he can show up and set the record straight.

The opportunity to tell his side of the story. Everyone has been so mean to him. Even slappy Thomas voted against him. Wonder what that pillow talks like. Gosh can Donald trump ever get a break?
