[Rhiannon12866]

A Trump DOJ vet who pushed false voter fraud claims testified before the Jan. 6 committee after stonewalling the probe. Meanwhile, Mike Pence’s documents will soon be turned over to the committee. This comes as the committee is investigating Trump’s direct involvement in a plot to seize voting machines and the $1 million payout he made to his former chief of staff’s non-profit just 25 days after the probe started. Aired on 02/02/2022.

1. This is important clip

Joyce Vance makes very direct call for the DOJ to act on the dangling of pardons.

reminding the public the violations on policies Bill Barr committed when enabling prosecutors "to look into allegations" and misconduct involving the elections which he ignored.

DOJ is going to have to make the decision to take action, while Trump is obviously emboldened.

Trump is conducting behavior that is a paradigm of obstruction of justice. Conduct the DOJ should not ignore.

2. I couldn't agree more and when Joyce Vance speaks, that's when I listen closely, she's the best

Allowing TFG to continue in this behavior, inciting his supporters and being allowed to travel the country telling election lies is something that needs to be stopped ASAP.

3. She really laid it out. and another thread Empty Wheel is throwing spit balls at "Tv Lawyers"

Empty Wheel was one if memory serves, back during dumbyas reign of terror. Empty Wheel was allover the Scooter Libby prosecution.

4. I have vague recollections of that. I've been here since 2003.

And I'm impressed with most of the lawyers they have on MSNBC, Joyce Vance and Glenn Kirshner immediately come to mind.

5. Seems like ages ago now. But it really wasn't. Time is flying by and who knew then, things could go

much worse after Dumbya? He was supposed to be the worst of the worst ever in U.S. History.

Yes, I do really like Vance and Kirshner too.

[Rhiannon12866]

6. Oh, I know! I was absolutely devastated by the election of 2004!

But little did we imagine what as to come! Compared to TFG, Bush* has come off pretty well...

[Rhiannon12866]

7. And I especially like Joyce Vance and Glenn Kirshner

Malcolm Vance, Jill Wine-Banks and Gene Robinson are other MSNBC favorite guests, too!
