Many thanks to Congressman Jamie Raskin for giving us the title of the January 6 Committee movie in his closing remarks today. (As a friend has noted, it should be "Profound Reckoning" because "Supreme Dereliction" needs to be saved for a blockbuster SCOTUS exposé.) Raskin's eloquent closing statement made us proud to be Americans.
We've also been mulling over the other developments of the day. Here are a few.
What truly must be driving Trump crazy is that these hearings have been great television. And he knows it. That's just one reason why he's over on TruthScrotal or whatever it's called, fuming like a madman. It's the best possible revenge on him — a really big show!
Is Diet Dr. Pepper the drink of choice for crazy Republican women? It was one of Sarah Palin's favorites, too. By the way, Sidney Powell continues to demonstrate some very, um, interesting fashion choices.
Witness Stephen Ayres testified that although he once believed Trump's claims about the election, he now knows that they were lies, and that participating in the storming of the Capitol has caused him to lose his job and his house. Then he went over to Officers Dunn, Hodges, Fanone and Gonell and apologized to each of them. An amazing moment. Every insurrectionist, every member of Trump's staff — including Cassidy Hutchinson and Patsy Baloney — and of course Trump himself, should do the same. (Spoiler: They won't.)
Today was a reminder for Biden bashers (of whom we are heartily sick) that Joe and Kamala did the one thing to Trump that Donald feared and loathed the most: They made him a loser. And not by a whisker, either — by seven million votes. A little respect, please.
Finally, the committee once again gave Liz Cheney the teaser for the next exciting episode. She dropped a bombshell: Trump recently tried (and failed) to directly contact an unnamed committee witness. It's now in the hands of the DOJ as possible witness tampering. Handy tip to Trumpsters: If you see Donald's name come up on your smartphone, do not take the call — you'll save a few bucks in legal fees. We cats PURR.
