Yeah but … how true does it sound? You can totally see the guy completely unhinged asking the secret service to go full on into a riot. And the crazy thing is that his supporters will think it’s totally cool while the rest of the work is horrified.

1. Her testimony wasn’t all hearsay. 99% of it wasn’t.
2. While a fun little anecdote, the SUV temper tantrum was one of the least important parts of her testimony

They have to focus on that because the other firsthand testimony is damaging, esp the acknowledgment of armed participants. That’s coming back to bite him.
I am 100% not bothered. If the testimony damages anyone, they are free to appear themselves and refute it - or provide statements to that effect. Neither of which I believe has happened.

Lmao the same secret service now under criminal investigation for deleting text messages from that day?
If someone wants to testify under oath to give a different account they are free to do so.

My goodness. The amount of time this man gets a pass is amazing. He is exactly who people describe him to be: petty, spoiled, irate, vengeful, etc.
Cassidy is just the latest person to point to his character flaws. Remember Rex, General Kelly, Matis, Cohen, etc. There are more people who describe him the same way than not. His response is always “I don’t know that person, yada yada yada.”
Dude is a man child who gets away with bad behavior because people enable him. Period.

Man, conservatives are stupid. My neighbor says President Trump is real and does not fake like other politicians. It’s hard for them to digest that Trump is an idiot
I mean this is par for the course for Trump’s presidency.
Someone says something negative / sensational about Trump — Media abandons all editorial standards and rushes each other to publish it — Public outrage and confirmation bias against Trump — Comes out that the story is untrue or exaggerated — Media and public is already on to the next sensational story and the correction is printed on page 12.

The only serious ones are Dems Russia fixation and the media automatically laughing off the lab leak theory.
The rest are suspect.
Maddow is one person not the entire media.
He did pose with a Bible fora photo-op.
Presidents have been warning Germany about their energy reliance on Russia since GW Bush.
There was no UN Gate aside from Trump pushing a foreign leader.
There is no master list of items that lists the times Trump was proven true.
On the flip side:
1. He lost 2020 election
2. Windmills don’t cause cancer
3. The IRS is not holding up his tax returns
4. He’s not a stable genius
5. He did inherit a large sum of money from his dad

***One*** of the many things she said was hearsay. She was clear that this wasn’t something she personally witnessed, and she is saying it under oath.
Amazing how the right is latching onto this one potential wrinkle in her testimony, despite everything else said that she personally witnessed or was a part of and that there was far more damning testimony from her than this. They’ve also made their usual rounds saying she was a low level nobody, etc., despite her office being 3 doors down from the Oval Office in the west wing.
All that aside, hearsay can be admissible in court. You need to stop educating yourself in the comment sections of right wing news social media pages.
I’m pretty sure the committee has actual evidence of the attempting witness tampering. Frankly, IDGAF about the giant toddler behaving like a toddler. I care, and all Americans *should* care, about the illegal and treasonous actions he performed and asked others to perform on his behalf.
I mean him tossing his ketchup-soaked burger makes for a funny meme, but him stating Pence deserved to be hung by his armed-mob because Pence refused to do illegal tasks for him really *should* be a step too far for everyone. Most especially anyone currently claiming to be “Pro-Life”.
I believe her. I also believe Flynn when he states he’s taking the Fifth.
Hearsay is accepted in court and it can be valid evidence depending on the cicumstances.

Not bothered. What mattered was her direct witness testimony about Meadows and Pepperoni (I’m not even trying to spell his name). It’s frankly unAmerican that Meadows refuses to speak.

What Maddow reported is that the Secret Service agents that are denying Hutchison's testimony are yes men, so they'll say anything to protect him from these accusations.
If the others would like to sit and testify under oath, it could very easily be resolved.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. The whole charade is a joke at this point but the democrats hate Trump so much all they know is orange man bad.
Why do you hate America and the police?
Even if it were true, so what? A couple of guys hashing out a disagreement and horsing around in a limo? Boys will be boys.
