Hearing about Capitol riot goes off-the-rails

Former acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller and former acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen testified during a House hearing about their actions during the Capitol insurrection. CNN's Jessica Schneider reports the hearing devolved into "partisan finger pointing."

  1. A shitshow is what Republicans want to turn everything into. We need an independent commission, when that happens, these two are in some deep do do!! Since THEY are the ones who delayed the guard!

    1. We needed to have Trumpist members of Congress who were sympathizers and/or inciters arrested on Jan 6th. They should have all been expelled from Congress, and given a swift trial. The founders of this country would not have wasted so much time between insurrection, trial, and punishment. There is no good reason why the Trumpists should be in attendance at any hearing other than to testify concerning their actions leading up to and during the insurrection.

  2. Witnesses and Committee members should all be Sworn in. That way they are culpable for lying to congress, when they do so. Not just the witnesses.

    1. @Kathy Scherbarth Exactly. Hitlery could have lead the communist transition team and we’d be full fledged communist by now. Lennon and Stalin would have been so proud.

    2. @Charlie Lauffer Courts historically will not hear cases on voter fraud. The cases were thrown out on technicalities, not lack of proof. They knew if they took the cases and heard ALL of the evidence, such as states ILLEGALLY changing voting laws, the courts would have overturned the election. This would have caused a civil war in this country without doubt. The BLM riots would have been a Girl Scout jubilee in comparison.

    3. Fuel Shortages, war in the Middle East, horrible jobs report, crisis at the border – Biden is a monumental failure

  3. The fact that people don’t want a full bipartisan investigation into Jan6th tells so much about our government officials

    1. @Tilc Rekcil tell me one time where audit of elections happen 5 months after the elections I’ll wait

    2. @Radagast Brown The 70 million plus that seen all 2020 watch radical left wing extremist destroy businesses & terrorized civilians. The 70 million plus that till this date seen the idiots in the capital riot get hunted down, and charge at the full extent. The same 70 million that seen all the morons destroying local businesses get a free pass from local D.A because the local/state authority didn’t have the testicles to charge those individuals that seeked to destroy/steal/burn businesses for something they had nothing to do with.

    3. @Brian Jones

      Republican fascism is infinitely more dangerous than the mythical “communist” bogeyman, Vlad.

    4. @Nando I totally agree.. this is the same party who placed burning crosses, executed the Tulsa massacre and the Pittsburgh Move.. now they are Black churches, setting Police Stations and burning down an AutoZone.. it’s time to abolish the white supremacy groups like Proud boys and the Booglaloo boys and Racist law enforcement mafias like the Oath Keepers.. We shale rise up a March and fight against a tyrannical police state. Our founding Father’s declared us free and established our rights and we will fight to keep them.

  4. Their opinion definitely would’ve been different if any congress or senators were harmed during the inserection. They’re all cowards!

    1. The GOP would simply deny anyone had been harmed. They’d say it over and over. And 1/3 of this country would fall in line. Look what’s happening. Orwell is smiling.

    2. @Ben Factor Josef Goebells is giggling in his grave.

      “You tell the lie. Make it a big lie. Repeat it often and be sure it reaches the the population with the highest concentration of the least intelligent among you”

      Josef Goebells, Hitler’s minister of Propaganda.

  5. This is our government “in Action”. We still have a long, long way to go. No good deed goes unpunished.

    1. WHY Keep Turning Blind Eye to

      HOW Going to STOP Religious Fascism?

    2. The gop leadership and media outlets are majority highly educated and wealthy, they are playing the base not followers like them. Its not like tuckers education left him unable to tell who the real fascists are, in fact he’s well educated on how to brainwash the masses.

    3. The republicans for trump need their white jackets immediately. They are not mentally fit for their positions in congress. Start with McCarthy.

    4. @UCKRHMyGpmRbr70D6adLnYDQ Well, aren’t you the silver tongued little Republican? Feel better, Sparky? All that pow er flowing from your busy little fingers. Rub your tiny, tiny hands in glee; small mind, small …

  6. In any half-sane country the obvious culprits, along with the politicians covering for them, would be tossed into prison for high treason.

    1. Who was the 1st US President to be elected that has a son with an active DOJ criminal investigation?

  7. Traitors don’t deserve to participate and by law shouldn’t be allowed to head investigations into the crimes of their treasonous actions!PERIOD!! LYING UNDER OATH IS PROSECUTABLE!!

  8. The seditious traitors in congress and government need to be held accountable and punished for their violations to oath and office.

    1. only person that got murdered that day was the white maga lady google it…is antifa taking 6 square blocks and calling it chaz not an insurection???6 ppl died in chaz murdered…stop beeing hypocrites itll b the end of youre republic their are crazies on both sides stop the propaganda evryone

    2. Which Presidential candidate’s son had an active DOJ criminal investigation?
      Who was the 1st US President to be elected that has a son with an active DOJ criminal investigation?

    3. @Crispin Fornoff you mean the anti lefty cry cry pills??? Already had a double dose. What’s that? I can’t hear you over the sound of freedom. What did you say???

    1. @Mark Warren You can find that at Article 1, Section 4, for Senators and Representatives which for you convenience you will find below:
      Section 4
      The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and
      Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof;
      but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except
      as to the Place of Choosing Senators.

      The Congress shall assemble at least once in every Year, and such Meeting shall
      be on the first Monday in December, unless they shall by Law appoint a
      different Day.

      And for the President and Vice President, Amendment 23 Article 1, provided below:
      Amendment 23
      1. The District constituting the seat of Government of the United States shall
      appoint in such manner as the Congress may direct: A number of electors of
      President and Vice President equal to the whole number of Senators and
      Representatives in Congress to which the District would be entitled if it were
      a State, but in no event more than the least populous State; they shall be in
      addition to those appointed by the States, but they shall be considered, for
      the purposes of the election of President and Vice President, to be electors
      appointed by a State; and they shall meet in the District and perform such
      duties as provided by the twelfth article of amendment.

      You will note that the States make the rules at any time they wish.
      I hope this helps you.

    2. @Amaziah Cohen don,t be silly. We are talking politics. If you voted for biden all you have to do is see whats happening now. The world knows biden is a puppet.

  9. Gosar was a big part of the planning; pretty sure if I were him I’d keep my pie hole shut and try to blend into the background.

    1. Too late. That’s the one good thing about their embolden-ness. They don’t know when to shut up so they keep digging themselves a bigger hole. I’m sure the Feds love it.

  10. Sometimes a lie is more comforting than the truth but the truth is there and it will have its day one way or the other🤔

  11. “Individuals that have never been accused of a crime.” They’re being accused of a crime right now. If you could only go after people with criminal histories there would be no one with a criminal history.

    1. This is the kind of backass logic that works with their empty headed base. For the rest of us it’s SMH stupid – on a good day it also provides comedy.

  12. I just don’t get how they can sit there and lie to our faces…this was not done in hiding..we watched it ALL ON TV LIVE

  13. How can we let this happen ?!?! What the hell is going on ?!?! CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HOLD THESE PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE?!?!?
