Mark Meadows will stop cooperating with Jan. 6 panel, attorney says

Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows will no longer cooperate with the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection, his attorney told Fox News Tuesday.

Why it matters: Meadows, who failed to appear before the panel last month, is believed to have insight into former President Trump's role in efforts to stop the certification of President Biden's election win.

Last week, the committee and Meadows' attorney, George Terwilliger, said the parties had reached an understanding on how to exchange information.

This is a developing story. Please check back for updates.

5. I'll bet he's been offered a job w/ TFG's new media project too. (n/t)

.

[quaint]

6. Pretend cooperation is just another stall.

If someone near the top would be indicted, convicted and go to prison, I might find a little hope.

[hamsterjill]

30. Thread winner!

It’s all about the stall, and Dems need to figure that part out and DO something.

[turbinetree]

7. Surprize......JFC......just lock his ass up....

they are making treason / insurrection into some kind of game....

[bullimiami]

9. Stop cooperating? He never started, just had a lawyer pretend to negotiate.

[rurallib]

18. Why are they even 'negotiating'? He gets a subpoena. If he refuses he goes to fucking jail

Them's the rules

[Delphinus]

21. You said it!

Cuff time.

[patphil]

19. Exactly. All he did was give the illusion of limited cooperation. Never intended to do so.

[OneCrazyDiamond]

10. They are dragging it out until the election.

It is treasonous.

[samsingh]

15. yes they are. That's why the justice department and the select committee better start moving faster

[OneCrazyDiamond]

16. The GQP have left so much trash to clean up,

I don't see how we finish this decade.

[bucolic_frolic]

11. They're all just playing games

They do not want to get to the bottom of it because they're guilty as sin. This here is a game of dashed expectations.

And they are traitors, every last one of them.

[Paladin]

12. Meadows and the others are insufficiently afraid of us.

We and our representatives bear significant responsibility for this. But hey, what the hell---it's just our democracy that's at stake...

[3825-87867]

14. IF...there's ANY bright spot to the DOJ

and they really ARE going to prosecute (successfully) any (ex President) Senators, Congress People, even down to local levels and IF any are convicted, then those will be ineligible to run for office regardless of gerrymandering or appointments by Fascist Governors. What a thing that would be after the primaries next year or in 2024!

If the Fascists were smart (sorry!) they would dump those that they know would be compromised and start with new blood to avoid a rout.

I hope that would happen, but then again, I always believed in Santa Claus.

[ffr]

17. I'd be doing the same, but I'd be waving two middle fingers to the Democrats and DOJ too!

Laws mean nothing to the connected. We're just realizing what the rest of America has been saying all along. There are at least two justice systems. One that you and I have to abide by and another for the true criminals, the politically connected.

FUCK!!!!!

[barbtries]

20. i guess someone got to him?

threatened to kill him maybe. then fucking lock him up and prosecute him.

we're going down. there's just no end to this.

[Nittersing]

22. I'm reading it's because he found out his phone records have also been subpoenaed

[SeattleVet]

31. Scared that what he says will not match the records?

Or that the records will open to door to questions he absolutely does not want to have to answer?

[rougy]

33. GOP Martyr Time

I'm starting to think that one of their angles is to refuse to cooperate, so when the J6 Committee actually starts enforcing the subpoenas, they can start acting like it's some sort of dictatorial, authoritarian overreach.

And use that to raise more money.

[Bayard]

23. The book must not be a tell-all

If he's still worried about more coming out. Probably poor sales anyway.

He's seeing that Bannon hasn't been locked up, so what the hell.

[Mr.Bill]

24. What kind of world is this

where an attorney goes to the press and announces that his client is going to intentionally commit a crime? These people are really fucked up.

[gab13by13]

25. I have no issues calling the lot of them traitors,

they all fit the dictionary definition.

[monkeyman1]

26. cooperation OR jail - take your damn pick , it's that damn simple ?

quit the damn games ! us common folk don't get that pleasure !!!

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

27. Lock him up!!!!!

[JohnSJ]

28. Why not. The Bannon contempt trial won't start until July of next year. Just delay everything

until our entire democracy is dismantled

[marie999]

32. I don't think you can just lock someone up for a misdemeanor without a trial.
