I am always lothe to elevate the voices of Republicans who voluntarily worked for and repeatedly voted for Donald Trump—especially those who somehow still believe that America was just hunky dory until Trump came along and ruined everything—but it’s getting down to the wire and hopefully hearing their voices will change some hearts and minds prior to the next election. x

Frank Vyan Walton at Dark Skies on the Horizon:

Among the many MAGA myths, this may be one of the most enduring and at the same time the most ridiculous.  Even though they have deliberately chosen not to watch the January 6 hearings, they have plenty of opinions about them.  Antifa implemented the attack, it was part of a false-flag plot by the FBI using informants, it was all Nancy Pelosi’s fault because she didn’t call the National Guard. And the hearings are a “Which Hunt” with a “Narrative.” They have no regrets for the Insurrection, they have no apologies to give. They think that they are the ones who have been wronged, they believe that they were justified. [Even though they totally weren’t.] [...]

There is no way that Trump didn’t know that these people did not “Stay” peaceful, thousands of them weren’t peaceful at all.  This was part of him constructing a narrative, he had said at the ellipse we're going to “peacefully march” but that was bullshit because he already knew there were weapons in the crowd.  He already knew how angry they were. His saying “Stay peaceful” here was part of his plot to blame that violence on Antifa, or whoever — which he did during a phone call with Kevin McCarthy — and pretend that his supporters didn’t enter the Capitol and didn't fight with police. But they did.  Trump supporters were the ones who gave Officer Fanone a concussion, a heart attack and tased him repeatedly.  They were the ones who attacked Sgt Gonell and gave him a permanent shoulder injury. They were the ones who caused Officer Sicknick to have a stroke, and several other officers to commit suicide. They were the ones who injured 150 Officers leading to five of them dying, and also four protestors dying during the attack.

This is the final straw, with this statement he made it clear that he was on the same side as the rioters.  And they were on his side. He initiated the rally.  He instigated the attack.  He picked the time, date and place. He used the people and the MAGA members of Congress as tools in his two-pronged assault on democracy. He didn't care that they were armed and dangerous.  He didn't lift a finger to *stop* the attack while it was in progress until he was satisfied that they had stopped the vote and couldn't accomplish anything more. He said “Peacefully” just to cover his ass and set up the narrative that the violence was from someone else. But then if it really was Antifa, why is it that he’s since offered to pardon and offer a governmental apology to the rioters if he gets re-elected. Why would he do that for the “Violent Leftists?”

And he’s not just offering this pardon to the people who were actually “peaceful” and stood outside the Capitol. [Even though just being past the sidewalk and on the Capitol grounds was a crime, since the facility was closed to the public at that time.]  He wants to pardon the people who are currently in jail for violent acts, who fought with the police, who vandalized the building and smashed their way inside, who were trying to hunt down and kill Nancy Pelosi, who wanted to “Hang Mike Pence.”  This is a reward, and those the people he wants to give it too. He’s on the side of the worst of the crowd, the Proud Boys, the Oath Keepers, the III Percenters, the racists and the domestic terrorists. And they’re on his side. This was not a boating accident. None of this happens, not the rally, not the march, not the attack, not the attempt to implement the fake electors, without Trump being behind all of it.  Every step of the way.

Frank Vyan Walton debunks the myths MAGA extremist spew out in regards to the Donald Trump-incited January 6th Insurrection.

Today is January 1st. There are just 309 days until Election Day.

We can't rely on a clever legal gimmick or some preternatural force to prevent a Trump victory. We have to do it ourselves with our organizing and our votes.

Three young women who worked in the Trump White House had a conversation with ABC's Jonathan Karl before the end of 2023. Sarah Matthews, Cassidy Hutchinson, and Alyssa Farah Griffin went on to testify before the House January 6th Committee. The trio said that a second Trump term would be even worse than the first.

Former aides warn of 'running out of time' to prevent Trump re-election

All three gave testimony to the US House committee investigating Trump’s efforts to overturn his 2020 election defeat as well as the 6 January 6 Capitol attack staged by his supporters. And they warned in an unprecedented television interview on Sunday that time was short to prevent a second Trump administration in which they insist his behavior would be much worse. “People in general have short memories, and might forget the chaos of the Trump years,” Sarah Matthews, a former deputy White House press secretary who resigned on the day of the deadly Capitol riot, said on ABC’s This Week. “They also might not just be paying attention to what he’s saying now – and the threat to democracy that exists. It does really concern me if he makes it to the general [election] that he could win. I’m still hopeful that we can defeat him in the primaries, but we’re running out of time.” [ ... ] Hutchinson, ex-aide to Trump’s chief of staff Mark Meadows, said voters needed to believe Trump when he said he would be a dictator on his first day back in the White House. “The fact that he feels that he needs to lean into being a dictator alone shows that he is a weak and feeble man,” she said. Matthews, meanwhile, said Trump had already signaled what his second administration would look like. “We don’t need to speculate because we already saw it play out,” she said.

The three former staffers know that Trump's dictator and vermin rantings are not just talk. Sarah Matthews, Cassidy Hutchinson, and Alyssa Farah Griffin should be taken more seriously than some blowhard on Fox News who's attempting to dismiss Trump's Hitlerian references.

Thank goodness that a very frightened Cassidy Hutchinson had a change of heart and got rid of Passantino, the “Trump world” lawyer she was provided with at no cost by third parties whose identities were kept from her.

However, think of all the Republicans who were in deep with “Trump world,” and who had “memory problems” in their Jan. 6th committee testimonies. 

One such “Trump world” Republican was Anthony Ornato (Secret Service agent/ White House deputy chief of staff), whom Hutchinson had claimed, under oath, had told her about what happened when Trump got angry in the car on Jan. 6th. Well, according to The New York Times,

The committee’s report said Mr. Ornato, when questioned by the panel, said that he had no memory of the conversations recounted by Ms. Hutchinson and the other witness, and that “he had no knowledge at all about the president’s anger.” [emphasis added]

Really? No memory at all?

Why is this not considered to be perjury? 

I think that anyone testifying to a Congressional committee who has a “memory problem” about important conversations should be required to have a full neuropsychological evaluation to determine if they have true memory problems that would interfere with their recollections to that extent. They should also be required to have such an evaluation if they are still working for the government, because that level of memory deficiency should preclude them from doing anything that requires significant episodic memory. 🤦🏻‍♀️

For those who don’t subscribe to The Washington Post, I used a “gift link” for the above linked opinion column by Ruth Marcus about Hutchinson’s deposition testimony, so everyone can access it. It is well worth reading, because, as Marcus writes:

If Hutchinson’s live testimony before the select committee was riveting, her deposition testimony, taken several months later and released Thursday, is a page-turner: The Godfather meets John Grisham meets "All the President’s Men." Before, we could only imagine how frightening the situation must have been for the 20-something Trump staffer. Now, we can read of her frantic search for help, and her terror as she contemplated telling the truth. [emphasis added]

Cassidy Hutchinson says it’s a ‘make-or-break moment’ for the Republican Party to stand against Trump | The Hill

Think about the entire Trump “presidency” … from that ride down the escalator where he disparaged Mexican Americans, aaalll the way up until January 6, 2021.

Now imagine being someone who worked closely with him that whole time. The whole time.

And now, please try to imagine it taking what happened on January 6th before you finally went, “Heyyy, something is not right here. I think, Idk, maybe something is wrong with Trump?!”

I’m glad that Trump might finally be held accountable, and im glad people are dropping dimes on him, but no - I refuse to believe all of these subpoenaed witnesses had no clue he was exactly who we all knew he was: a traitorous, wannabe authoritarian. Trump broke a law or three every day he was in office, his enablers were aware of and okay with Trump’s blatant racism, they were aware of and okay with his misogyny, they were aware of and okay with the fact that he was grossly ignorant, vindictive and inept, but all of a sudden, on January 6th, that’s when everything clicked?? GTFOH.

Nah son. I ain’t buying it.

You really think January 6th was the first time Trump threw food at the wall and acted selfishly in front of them??

What makes it worse is, these people testifying were not dummies. On the contrary, unlike the red-hat-wearing, street level MAGA sycophants, these people surrounding Trump were all quite capable, well informed and actually very intelligent. They all fucking knew. And Mike Pence knew too, and he nearly paid the price for staying silent

Former President Trump told his then-Chief of Staff “this is embarrassing,” and “I don’t want people to know that we lost,” after the Supreme Court ruled against him on a key case about the 2020 election, former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson told the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot.

Hutchinson’s testimony was revealed Thursday in what might be the Jan. 6 committee’s final public hearing.

The lawsuit considered by the Supreme Court in December 2020 was filed in Texas and challenged the presidential election results in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), a member of the Jan. 6 panel, said Trump regarded the legal action as “his last chance at success in the courts.”

On Dec. 11, 2020, the Supreme Court said it would not take up the case.

Hutchinson was present for a conversation between Trump and then-White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows the day the Supreme Court rejected the lawsuit, she told the panel in testimony presented Thursday.

“The President was fired up about the Supreme Court decision,” Hutchinson said during a previous deposition conducted behind closed doors.

“The President, just raging about the decision and how it’s wrong, and why didn’t we make more calls, and just, his typical anger outburst at this decision,” she added.

Hutchinson said she and Meadows crossed paths with Trump in the White House when the pair was leaving a Christmas party in the residence.

“He had said something to the effect of, ‘I don’t want people to know we lost, Mark, this is embarrassing, figure it out, we need to figure it out, I don’t want people to know that we lost,’” Hutchinson said.

The panel also presented an email sent from a Secret Service agent the day the Supreme Court rejected the lawsuit.

“Just FYI. POTUS is pissed — breaking news — Supreme Court denied his law suit. He is livid now…,” the email reads.

« Jim Jordan can't be trusted with the Constitution. »

— Former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson at Pod Save America and repeated at CNN (below).

Before going to work at the Trump White House, Cassidy Hutchinson held several positions at the Capitol. She became the star witness at the House January 6th Committee hearings in 2022.

Gym Jordan and Steve Scalise are running for Speaker of the House. While there isn't a lot of ideological space between them, Jordan is essentially an unindicted co-conspirator regarding the attack on the Capitol by pro-Trump terrorists. In fact, GOP former Speaker John Boehner referred to Jordan as a "legislative terrorist". He's basically Matt Gaetz on decaf – and without a jacket.

Having Jordan as House Speaker would be the Capitol Hill equivalent of Trump in the White House.
