New Jan 6 surprise hearing (June 28)
- Thread starter tlwwake
- Start date
Do you know how congressional hearings work? How about a deposition? She had counsel during those sessions - who exactly is on trial that would need a defense attorney during these hearings?
The J6 committee isn't conducting a hearing.
Damn. You’re dumber than I thought.
I sometimes have trouble following your logic so I am taking a stab at your position.
You are right it is a hearing but she was still.sworn in and is still subject to perjury.
Hopefully you are right and she understood that prior to testimony. Based on what is being discussed around Secret Service comment it appears she might have perjured herself. Time will tell I guess.
Even if she did, do you think a Dem-led Congress would prosecute her for it? She's selling the message that Congress wants to hear and that the Dems believe. They aren't going to charge her for it no matter how clear the evidence is.
If it were material I would think she would be prosecuted. An error isn't perjury. Perjury has a very specific meaning.
🤣🤣🤣

WASHINGTON, D.C. - The walls are closing in on former President Trump. In an explosive bombshell unprecedented star witness testimony yesterday, Cassidy Hutchinson told everyone that she heard Mark Meadows say that a Secret Service agent's friend's cousin's husband once heard that one of Trump's...

You could tell she was lying in her body language and how she spoke.
Depends on how angry Congress becomes if they learn the Republicans played them like a cheap fiddle. Always remember, the Queen of Vindictive is the same " " that pushes little girls for a photo op.
Stating that she met with Cippilone who supposedly made specific explosive statements would seem material to her testimony. If proven that that meeting didn't exist, potentially via Secret Service logs showing that individual wasn't present when the supposed meeting was purported to occur would seem to be more than an 'error'. But nothing would scuttle the Jan 6 hearings faster than the star witness getting charged with perjury, so you and I both know, the Dem leadership in the house would have zero interest in actually pushing such charges.
You realize Congress doesn’t charge nor prosecute people right?
@Ponca Dan - Are you concerned that the POTUS may have issued an illegal order to stop disarming protesters?
You might want to inform House Democrats as they sure think they are the prosecution, judge, jury and executioner.
Think so, her quote was “I heard Mark Meadows say”. Seems to be something close to the definition of hearsay. I learned this one in BLaw class while studying depositions. But that was back when we studied using an oil lamp for light.

I'm no expert (shocker I know) but in a deposition or hearing hearsay isn't disallowed. For those who think of Hutchinson as a "star witness" I suggest you look at what has happened since. I would more describe her as a pathway to get others to testify.
Surprised to learn some here think the results of the midterms are in doubt. Will Pelosi be leader this time next year?

You may be on to something here, she'll do anything for money. Even work for that slime ball Cruz.
Just curious David, was this meant to be tongue in cheek or do you really believe the Justice Department is going to seriously consider bringing charges against Trump?
"Two weeks" is running sarcasm. Trolling JV and crew is half of why I am here.
If a referral were to come it would be after the midterms IMO. Of course a referral isn't the only path, nor is it much more than a recommendation.
One aspect of the January 6 hearings I have found very impressive is how the Committee is allowing Republicans and members of Trump's own administration to lay out what occurred on January 6 and Trump's role. Watching right-wingers on this board attack and degrade their own as they seek to defend Trump is very revealing.
Also, Kevin McCarthy made an enormous political blunder with his decisions regarding this Select Committee, if he was trying to protect Trump.

POTUS can issue all the illegal orders he wants about anything he wants, as far as I'm concerned. It's whether those illegal orders are obeyed is what would concern me. I also find your terminology interesting. I'm unaware that Trump specifically ordered law enforcement to stop "disarming protesters."
Thinking more short term and using the Department of Justice to do dirty work. Of course we could see a more "stern" punishment.
No I don't think Nanci will be speaker post mid-terms. Maybe the window is too small and Congress sets themselves toward a bigger fish and impeachment. Time will tell
Even if a referral from the House Select Committee were made today it would be months if not years before anything would come of it. A change in the House leadership would certainly open the door to a review of her testimony and a possible referral. This very real possibility just leads me to further believe she isn't overtly lying in her testimony.
Is anyone surprised that the biggest Putin defender on this board holds this position?
