In a major, 248-page filing in federal court last Friday, the January 6 Committee revealed that it has evidence tying current members of Congress to both the violent insurrection at the Capitol and the “soft coup” conspiracy to overturn the election under the Eastman plan. The revelations have shaken Washington because they publicly disclosed, for the first time, the alleged Congressmembers’ names while revealing key witnesses and the gist of their testimony as well as electronic texts sent to and from Congressmembers. This is all likely to underscore the gravity of public hearings to begin this summer, which Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) of the Committee
I see the color orange in the future...hoping its very soon! Just reading your clear and detailed accounting makes me physically ill and I wonder just how these people are still in office? Thank you Jay once again for your clarity on this very dark corner in our country!
Is there any word on whether the live facebook video DJT Jr. had posted is in evidence? On January 6th his video was shared thousands of times and I wish I had saved it to my phone, because it has now disappeared. He was videoing himself in the room with his dad and dad's inner circle drinking, dancing, and watching a large screen TV and reveling in the violence unfolding in real time. It was disgusting and I hope the select committee has a copy of it. I haven't heard anyone mention it, but wondered if you knew anything, Jay.
Thank you so much for your continued coverage of this whole situation! 💜
The thing is while I've been wanting every one to pay and pay quickly. This is so much better, because real evidence takes a while to piece the full picture together without any holes. The 1/6 committee is quite literally going to hand the DOJ an evidence based air tight case. This is going to be sooooo good!
Great news and superbly summarized. We're all looking forward to the referrals and indictments that will follow. And I just want to thank you, Jay, for finally referring to Alex Jones as a "conspiracy peddler" rather than dignifying him and his ilk with the undeserved term "theorist." I hope you consistently adhere to this nuanced but important stylistic change going forward.
Thank you for this information and detail. Keep up the good reporting. How soon can we get these scumbags out of office? My heart breaks for America. And God help our nation if the former POTUS gets anywhere near the platform in two years.
Interesting developments here Jay hoping for an outcome that will remove and prosecute these individuals as well as seeing the the former defeated guy does not ever have an opportunity to run for any office again don’t expect we will ever see him prosecuted for a damned thing though as he seems to be above the law
So when in Hell will these traitors be sent to Prison? You know if the RepubNazis regain house or senate that will be the end of the 1/6 committee, just like Mueller was swept away.
Thank you Jay; excellent summary of the testimonial evidence submitted in support of the Select Committee's pending Motion for Summary Judgment. I noted in the "Background" statement in the Motion at Section D that the evidence details Meadow's "dual roles" after the Election targeting Meadows' Hatch Act violations, 5 USC 7323, leading directly to the attemped coup (really an 'inside coup'). Loss of life & 100's of injuries. I doubt Mr. Meadows will filing a Declaration in Opposition. "Watch this space". Need the texts between Meadows & Pence's Staff & directions to the Mob to "kill Mike Pence" or at least ship him "to Alaska".
It is so important that they are all being held accountable, because they are actually proud of themselves for coming up with scams and getting away with it. Their continuous defiance just shows their own convictions of being right and smarter than everyone else. The former Liar in Chief was literally raised a scammer and a cheat and so are his offsprings. Receiving a gold star for milking the system, and if they do it so cleverly, why would anyone be upset about it? The rest of the world just isn't clever enough to understand. The only way they might finally get it is if they land in jail and are being punished for their violations. As the former Liar in Chief so boldly declared - "he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and would get away with it". Let's hope that he will finally be proven wrong.
Most of us pretty much knew this but will testimony by witnesses make any difference in how it is recieved and judged. If the guilty players are still in Congress and can't be removed are we any better off, or is this the future of every election. Even if the up front loud mouths are not allowed to run again there are plenty of sleaze balls in the Senate who are pushing this republican crap and backing the next generation of circus clowns. This is up to the voters to change and with the gerrymandering and big money specs I'm not sure we can do it.
Thank you for this clear and concise breakdown. I still have no reason to hope it results in arrests, much less convictions, but hopefully history will see what happened here and those accountable will be known as traitors forever.
They should all be locked up in one cell with the orange baboon psychopath and family with one toilet and no curtains for at the very least five years.

Not surprised by any of the names on the list, just don't know how they all are still in office.

Can't happen soon enough.
Wow ...
Well summarized.
