Capitol insurrection hearing exposes Trumpworld delusions
If there were any doubt about which political party has the upper hand in the investigation into the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, it was erased during the first hearing of the House select committee established to investigate the attack. Republicans are squarely behind the eight ball - with few options for leveling the field.
If I were in former President Donald Trump's employ, I would fear coming within his throwing distance.
Tuesday's hearing, the table-setter for the committee's efforts, was a textbook display, filled with credible, heroic victims giving gut-wrenching, first-hand accounts of their violent ordeal on that day. Each gave his own riveting account of the physical and emotional hardships they endured while protecting the Capitol, its occupants and our democracy. Their testimony was punctuated with ample, violent video footage.
The four witnesses, all Capitol Hill or Washington, D.C., police officers, came across as bright, courageous, praiseworthy. No one, in my view, who heard their testimony or saw that video could conclude anything but that there was a violent insurrection attempt that day.
