Do you remember Judge Luttig?

He testified at the J6 hearings. He is a lifelong Republican, but he doesn't mince words. His speaking style is slow and deliberate, giving him the appearance of someone who is impaired, but boy, he is not! This guy is brilliant, and utterly fascinates me. Plus, he's 69 years old and looks amazing!



He also favors televising the J6 trial of Trump as being for the benefit of the American citizens. I think he meant something like, "We need to see this." Is it correct that the SC has to approve, and not just the Judge? What are our chances?

Has more integrity than all the combined elected republicans in Washington. And per your post he and I have at least two things in common. 69 and looks amazing

keep it off TV due to orange guy’s TV camera experience. Would give him an edge.

He was so brilliant, you could see his mind processing information at lightning speed, yet his speech was slow and deliberate. I think the same goes for Judge Luttig, a brilliant legal mind.

11. Nothing in the Constitution that says you can't televise proceedings.

Of course you can "carry" anywhere...except the NRA and Republican Conventions or the Supremacist Court.

And if they're worried, why not a "delay" of a minute or so, so the Media can censor anything bad about the turnump?
