Re: January 6 - How much do you care?
In it [Penatgon memo], the IG recounts a fateful meeting on Jan. 3, 2021 in the White House when then-acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller and Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, met with Trump on national security matters.
The complete passage — hardly mentioned by Democrats at the hearings or the news media covering them — is worth absorbing in its entirety.
“Mr. Miller and GEN Milley met with the President at the White House at 5:30 p.m.,” the IG reported. “The primary topic they discussed was unrelated to the scheduled rally. GEN Milley told us that at the end of the meeting, the President told Mr. Miller that there would be a large number of protestors on January 6, 2021, and Mr. Miller should ensure sufficient National Guard or Soldiers would be there to make sure it was a safe event. Gen Milley told us that Mr. Miller responded, ‘We’ve got a plan and we’ve got it covered.'”

Re: January 6 - How much do you care?
You don't care what the other side is doing? You post all sorts of stuff that makes fun of Donks and get defensive/deflective when something is posted that makes fun of Conks (but trump). You're drinking the kool-aid out of a firehose.HI54UNI wrote: ↑Mon Jul 25, 2022 1:16 pmI don't care what the other side is doing. Our elected officials are all a joke.

We agree, our elected officials are a joke. That includes trump, MTG, Boebert, etc.
Unlike the pearl-clutchers, I never thought January 6 was serious threat to our republic. Unlike the deniers, I think it was an attempted insurrection and worthy of a serious investigation. Unfortunately, because of Conks and Donks, we aren't getting a serious investigation.

Is that the same WSJ that reported Elon Musk slept with the wife of Google’s founder?

Well, given their demonstrated level of research and due diligence before going to print with something, it’s entirely possible.

It’s widely reported including Short admitting he gave testimony.
“In the interview with CNN, Short said it was unfair to characterize the pro-Trump mob as simply exercising their First Amendment free speech rights.
"Certainly there were probably some people who foolishly got caught up in the events that were happening on the sixth, but I think it's unfair to describe the rioters as patriots who were merely expressing their First Amendment rights," he said.“

Elon Musk sleeping with the wife of Google’s cofounder and causing a divorce and the ending of their friendship was “widely reported” too. Only it was not true.kalm wrote: ↑Tue Jul 26, 2022 6:58 amIt’s widely reported including Short admitting he gave testimony.

I wasn’t saying she’s a never trumper or that she’s a principled conservative. She made the right choice in this instance that is all.

Well we’ll never know, i guess, because they wouldn’t call the 17 people who would have contradicted her story and destroyed the committee’s narrative.
