(13,149 posts)Yes, the article says that, but then they listed 5... and none of them were anything that would have been relevant to the J6 committee. Interesting article, though.
As for whether "there's a wee difference in expressing support for the rioters chanting Hang Mike Pence and gleefully chanting along with them Hang Mike Pence," -- in terms of the purpose of the J6 committee, is there really a substantive difference between "expressing support for those chanting 'hang Mike Pence' vs. chanting it along with them? At any rate, it sounds like she didn't clearly hear that, all she heard him say was the word "hang." (Not that, in hindsight, it could have meant anything else!) I wonder what other corroboration the committee may have of all of this from behind closed doors as well. And related, whether any question they asked of her would have made the "hang" answer relevant. I guess my feeling is, I'm not seeing where she necessarily withheld anything that really should have been in her testimony, and I'm willing to give benefit of doubt.
