*30 lawmakers asking Capitol security officials for details, say reported suspicions visits on 5th

Now that all of the GrOPpers are 'on the record'.

haven't mentioned the cameras.

No wonder they're babbling so much bullshit on the House floor right now.

Lock them all up. Never have I seen such obfuscation.

Isn't the first rule of lawyering in the courtroom "Never ask a question to which you don't know the answer"?

Sorry but asking will you leaves the door open for a no nope not gonna happen.


However, hopefully with new leadership they will comply.

Answers will be forthcoming. I guarantee it (to coin a phrase).

They know what language to use.

At the request of their leadership, after they failed to safeguard the Congress.
Will they be cooperative, available for questions, and/or are they complicit, overlooking visitors?
Each acting SAA will certainly investigate, but they weren't in charge on day of the insurrection.

FBI and law enforcement have been pouring over footage from 1/6. Now they have cause to review the videos of the day before, and days and weeks and months before. This has been planned for a while.

I don't think we'll hear anything until after the inauguration, which is only 5 days away!
Maybe on President Biden's first full day in office we will get news of arrests or removals from Congress. I say first full day because I don't want to see inauguration day overshadowed by any arrests, unless they are for active insurrection which is expected to happen in many cities. I say news of arrests or removals because they can vote to remove or censure members who are under investigation, before they are arrested. They may get information now, and hold closed sessions to decide and implement their course of action, and we won't know until after that.

On the other hand, it would be amazing if tomorrow they announced discovery of evidence implicating the traitors who gave tours and more. But once people are implicated they will need to be investigated and interviewed, building a case. I want these traitors removed from our house ASAP, as I know MOC's do, and look forward to seeing this unfold, like a bizarre horror mystery.

This is a developing story.

You rock!!!

Would remind me of Nixon's missing 18 minutes.

Nothing more......and in case it wasn't clear.......

He knows his constituents are worried for him - and the nation.

Too obvious to ignore, and all so easy to prove....Who, what..why..and When...?

Rep. Sherrill and the others want to make sure the information doesn't get disappeared. The more this knowledge is disseminated, the less chance somehow the records get "accidentally erased" by some unknown underling. Oops, sorry about that, can't find it. If they somehow didn't sign those visitors in, we have to know why, although I doubt they were allowed in without signing in. If so, that in itself was deliberate. All this is going into the history books so we better have records that reflect the truth.

Control of both Houses of Congress and the Presidency is so important. After 4 harrowing years of lies, gaslighting and cover-ups, I’m more skeptical of Republicans and their motives than ever. Without Dem control of government I’m sure there would be no transparency.

No wonder the insurgents seemed to know exactly where they were going. The had inside help in mapping out the areas to attack.
And I wonder how many more members of Congress besides Congresswoman Pressley had panic buttons removed from their offices.
And I wonder how many Republican Representatives knew what was going to happen on January 6th.
I think we are looking at a pretty large conspiracy to, not just block the installation of Biden and Harris as President and Vice-president, but to install Trump as President, while removing the first two people in line for succession, namely Pence and Pelosi.

I think this was meant to be the end of the Republic, and the establishment of a facist dictatorship under Trump.

Meaning an actual overthrow & installation attempt

When at least 34 Representatives sign a letter about suspicious tours, at least one Representative had her office panic buttons removed, a gallows is built to hang the Vice-President, and many of the insurrectionists look like they came ready to do what they did, then it's reasonable to assume you have a conspiracy.
Also reasonable to assume they had sympathetic Congressmen and Congresswomen who were assisting this attempt to halt of the vote.
And the only reason they would block the vote would be to keep Trump in power.

One doesn't need to know the who of a crime to identify that a crime was committed.
That will come later with Justice Department investigation.
This whole thing was too big for just Trump though...he isn't that good at planning.
And now we see with today's impeachment vote that he still has strong Republican support in the House.
I can't for the life of me figure out how 197 Republicans could vote against impeachment at this time.
It appears that Trump still has an iron grip on the Republican party. Is it out of fear, or because they believe in what he is trying to do, or both?

Get down early while the gettin’s good!

Soon it will be time for people to start turning up dead.

When the investigation is concluded everyone will agree the baby looks just like him!

No one is safe.

The arrogance in the GOP after 4 years of shielding Trump is beyond amazing.

Now let's see if we are, indeed, still a nation of laws or if politics skew law enforcement and criminal justice in ways the Constitution never indicated.

….coup-like.

HUGE!

[thinking out loud]

How interesting that tRumpy used the very odd phrase, "Be there, will be wild!" on Dec. 20th to summon his MAGATs to the Capitol on Jan 6th.

What was happening on Dec. 20th in tRumplandia (i.e., the vast wasteland in his head)?

https://www.post-gazette.com/news/nation/2020/12/20/Donald-Trump-US-Supreme-Court-Pennsylvania-election-results-overturn-petition-Electoral-College-Rudy-Giuliani/stories/202012200136

WASHINGTON — Undeterred by dismissals and admonitions from judges, President Donald Trump’s campaign continued with its unprecedented efforts to overturn the results of the Nov 3. election Sunday, saying it had filed a new petition with the Supreme Court.

The petition seeks to reverse a trio of Pennsylvania Supreme Court cases having to do with mail-in ballots and asks the court to reject voters’ will and allow the Pennsylvania General Assembly to pick its own slate of electors.

Who is Susan Wild?

https://ballotpedia.org/Susan_Wild

Susan Wild (Democratic Party) is a member of the U.S. House, representing Pennsylvania's 7th Congressional District. She assumed office on January 3, 2019. Her current term ends on January 3, 2023.

Wild (Democratic Party) ran for re-election to the U.S. House to represent Pennsylvania's 7th Congressional District. She won in the general election on November 3, 2020.

Wild won the regular election and special election on November 6, 2018. She filled the remainder of Rep. Charlie Dent's (R) term in the 15th Congressional District.

I'm sure the toddler tyrant was seeing red when he relied on swing state, Pennsylvania, to help him overturn the election results and he was being thwarted left and right. The voices in tRumpy's head probably went something like this:

"Someone has to pay for this! Who in Pennsylvania is the reason for this humiliation? Why, it's that woman over there representing Pennsylvania's 7th congressional district, a former Republican stronghold. Yeah, she's the one emasculating me and making me look like a loser! How dare she! I'll be sure to slip her name in my summons for the MAGATs to appear in the Capitol on Jan 6th. My loyal codebreakers will know what I mean." [wink, wink]

Every sane person was admonished today by the Repukes in the H of R not to take anything tRumpy says literally.

Well, I think we can all agree that it definitely got wild in the Capitol on Jan 6th so he was being literal when he used that phrase on Dec. 20th. Even if we give tRumpy the benefit of the doubt and that phrase is not evidence of him preplanning the insurrection, it still begs the question, what does "will be wild" mean? I propose it was code to his insider hitmen (I'm fairly sure he has them) to target Susan Wild.

[/thinking out loud]

will shock even us. It's going to be a wild several weeks to months.

That might be questions worth asking and getting answers about.

How about the last few months? Are records kept of who visits?

I would find it curious if they weren't. I had to ID myself at a district home office just to pick up a couple tax forms.

Any personal hot spot, SSID, wireless events should be flagged with automated event notifications sent. This is off the shelf stuff and is used in non-sensitive corporate environments everywhere.

This is a secure Government facility with classified information. There are standards for securing and monitoring sites like that. They also have a huge annual budget.
