Would the J6 committee solicit public, shocking, testimony without confirmation? I say no. [View all]

Yes a source saying they are willing to testify, it's not the same as actually testifying under oath Walleye Jun 2022 #12

Agreed... can't understand why The MAGAt hasn't been arrested yet. InAbLuEsTaTe Jun 2022 #9
