"SNIP.......

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) told CNN told CNN that former White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham named “a lot of names” during their phone call about the Capitol riots.

Raskin said she also “identified some lines of inquiry that had never occurred to me.”

He added: “America is going to be shocked and surprised at what we all come to learn this year.”

......SNIP"

1. I have a feeling that Rep. Raskin doesn't bullshit.

Or as Ricky Nelson used to say, “I don’t just mess around, boy”

[Yoyoyo77]

7. Jamie Raskin had a rough year. If he was going to back down it would have been long ago, not now!

[Walleye]

9. Yep that's the feeling I get.

[Maine Abu El Banat]

26. Agreed

[Blue Owl]

2. Fess right up, now....

[Sherman A1]

3. And nothing will happen to any of those named

[Gaugamela]

4. I share your frustration, but what do you think it would take to make justice happen? Nt

[Sherman A1]

6. I think we could start with some very stiff sentences for the ones already

in the process of being dealt with. Seems like they are getting a fine, 20 minutes in jail and 14 minutes of community service if that. Personally I would cart all their domestic terrorists backsides off to Gitmo and toss the key.

[Gaugamela]

8. I agree with that, but if you don't trust Garland, Biden, or the judicial system to do it, then how

do we proceed? It seems to me the only thing that might make a difference is for massive street protests.

16. Surround MaraLoco peacefully and tell him

We don't want you leaving your house. (?)

[Sherman A1]

23. First at no point did I say I didn't trust Garland

So be careful putting words in my mouth or those of others. I am not particularly pleased with the sentences sought or given out to those who have been through the system and would take the lot of them to Gitmo never to be seen again if I had my way. That in no way is a criticism of the pace of investigations or the rate at which they are being processed. It is a massive task and I believe that the investigators are doing a pretty good job. The lenient sentences and post arrest process is my beef. If these folks were people of color they wouldn’t be around to be processed.

18. The military should court martial Flynn

He's been in this up to his fucking ears.

Call him back. Bust him down.

Court Martial him for insurrection.

[Gaugamela]

21. My point here is that if you think that Garland is too weak

to do what's right, then by inference you are also impugning Biden, because Garland reports to Biden. So if you think that Biden and Garland have agreed not to pursue the planners of the coup, then either you think that they are corrupt, or they have been intimidated into compliance. In either case, what are you going to do? I'm not asking what should be done by the authorities. We can all come up with a laundry list of what should happen.

What I'm asking is: do you really think that Biden is either corrupt, or has been intimidated into compliance?

24. For everyone in right-wing media to die.

But the world isn't that kind.

[DENVERPOPS]

10. The congressional investigation

will be written off by Trumphumping/Republican voters as just more "Fake News", an "illegal political witch hunt",
and left wing propaganda........

Everyone watched the second impeachment with McConnell saying everything the Dems were saying, and somewhat agreeing that it took place....the whole complete Sedition. And then they all turned around and voted not guilty...........

I guess they showed us. They know the truth, and don't give a rats ass about reality. Talk about "in your face" flaunting of their power and literally laughing us off......

[L. Coyote]

31. That's defeatism. I heard this during Watergate too.

This time we are dealing with people who did not hide their crimes.

[Sherman A1]

34. Okay

Have a Merry Fitzmas…….,

[L. Coyote]

35. Apples and mangoes

We are not a dictatorship with a political party deciding who gets prosecuted. Smart criminals often elude prosecution because they know better than to create lots of incriminating evidence. That does not mean the system is flawed, it means everyone's rights are protected against injustice. Albeit, under #FailedCoupGut's DoJ the system was broken by dictatorial tactics and yet a bunch of minions were sent to jail.

[Sherman A1]

37. Oh

[Harker]

5. Early this year, I hope. n/t

[sarchasm]

11. Shocked and surprised?

Sounds like a Wednesday.

[intheflow]

27. I thought it needlessly read like click bait.

[sarchasm]

29. The only thing I'm shocked and surprised about...

...is how long it's taken for any of even the smallest cracks to appear in that fucking dam.

I will be neither shocked nor surprised by anything that comes of it.

I am grateful however of the thorough and detailed job Rep. Raskin and crew are doing, and hope they get what they need for a successful prosecution however long it may take. The important thing for all of us is they are doing it.

[Lunabell]

12. I'm on pins and needles!

I know they're building an airtight case, so I'm just going to have to wait. But, DAMN!!

[Laura PourMeADrink]

13. Lazy question... Was she press Secy on 1-6? Love it ! nt

[applegrove]

15. Didn't she quit on Jan 6th?

[Laura PourMeADrink]

17. You're right. She's got a checkered past but I dont

Care about that if she's turning over information

[2Gingersnaps]

28. Yeah, the Royal family tried to throw her under the bus for the Inauguration malfeasance.

Apparently she is one of the few who took a lesson for Michael Cohen, don't do jail time for these assholes, they are not grateful, just relieved.

[Captain Zero]

14. If America is paying attention.

nt

[Piasladic]

19. It's begining to feel a lot like Fitzmas

blah, blah, blah.

Let me eat that crow. I'm starving.

[applegrove]

20. Santa Claus "why are you taking all of our presents away?" Said little

Sally Who in Whoville. Seriously, why so down?

[spanone]

22. ...K&R...

[Emile]

25. Uninformed people will be shocked and surprised, I doubt many of us

here will be. Looking forward to TFG arrest!

[wryter2000]

30. When do we get public hearings?

Anyone know?

[L. Coyote]

32. Next month, in prime time.

[wryter2000]

33. I'm so glad it's in prime time

Watergate hearings were during the day. I happened to be on a leave of absence from my job. These will be much more explosive.

[cannabis_flower]

36. Could it be that...

So called “foot dragging” on doing anything could be timing it so the really awful, treasonous stuff comes out right before the 2022 election ?

[Blue Owl]

38. Draft up the Pity List
