How Could The Committee Be Ready To Wrap Things Up On Thursday?

They still have to cover Pat Cipollone's testimony from last Friday, and now, Supposedly, Bannon is ready to have a little chat.

Originally they hoped to wrap up by August, but with all of the info coming in, they would likely continue longer.

They only have scheduled two more public hearings, but comments made by members of the committee seem to indicate the work could be ongoing for a while.

I guess we will know as it happens.

They'd be mistaken to let him testify live without deposing him first. He could just create chaos.

I think it would be a terrible mistake to show his testimony live. He would probably make a mockery of the hearing. I think they should tell him no way and put his large hiney in jail. He is an arrogant nasty slob. I would love to see him put down a few notches. I think that would be great on live tv.

I feel the same way about folks like Jordan, Gaetz, et al. They'd just turn the hearing into a circus and give the MAGAts reason to doubt the hearings altogether.

Procedure (basically) and no one has testified for the first time on tv. So they are very unlikely to change that.

Haven’t heard any updates on Mo Brooks. in Jube, didn’t he also offer to testify but only if it was live? These guys don’t seem to understand that they have ZERO negotiating power.

they may very well be trying to talk the country into believing that the 1/6 commission is wrapping up.

Anything to divert from the truth.

The question I want answered is when will the committee hand all of their evidence over to the DOJ. The DOJ needs it to combine it with their evidence. It is time to get the show on the road.
