RawStory
Congressional investigators believe plans for disrupting the Jan. 6 certification of the November election results were communicated to advisers to Trump Jr. and his fiancée Kimberly Guilfoyle before the election had taken place, and documentary filmmaker Alex Holder appears to have evidence to prove this was true

But one part of Holder’s testimony that particularly piqued the interest of the members of the select committee and chief investigative counsel Tim Heaphy was when he disclosed that he had managed to record discussions at the 29 September event.
...
What appears to interest the panel is whether Trump and his children had planned to somehow stop the certification of the election on January 6 – a potential violation of federal law – and to force a contingent election if Trump lost as early as September.

The event was not open to the public, Holder is said to have testified, and the documentary film-maker was waved into the Trump hotel by Eric Trump. At some point after Holder caught the calls on tape, he is said to have been asked to leave by Donald Jr.

Among the conversations captured on film was Eric Trump on the phone to an unidentified person saying, according to one source familiar: “Hopefully you’re voting in Florida as opposed to the other state you’ve mentioned.”

reading over a number of posts titles, it would appear there are no new "news" involving jan 6, and the conspiracy cooked up in the WH etc

just recycling stuff we either watched in real time, or was reported out during or after... some details coming out in the hearings not withstanding and which is great. But gosh... let's not pretend the usual suspects come as a big surprise or is in the least bit news worthy at this juncture. Only if they're indicted, prosecuted and sentenced. That wousld be real news.



LOL!
