[TexasTowelie]

The January 6 Committee’s first hearing revealed former President Trump was at the center of a seven-part conspiracy to overthrow the election. Former U.S. Attorney Barb McQuade and Peter Baker, chief Washington correspondent for the New York Times, discuss how the Justice Department could use the new evidence.

2. so is Peter Baker auditioning for Chuck Todd's old job?

he's got the "both sides do it" shit down...should Garland indict the guy who nearly destroyed our democracy or should Garland let him skate because, well, you know, optics?..

3. It no longer matters whether...

It looks bad to indict, prosecute and imprison a former president anymore. Is he above the law or is he not? France did it to two of their former presidents, Sarkozy and Chirac. Sarkozy was sentenced to time and Chirac's two years were suspended. But they were presidents first, then convicted.
