Not that there's anything wrong with that of course. Presidents are allowed to assassinate anyone they want, right Donny?
 
House GOP Launching Investigation of Cassidy Hutchinson

Rep. Barry Loudermilk, who represents the northwest Georgia district that borders that of Marge Greene, has announced that the Oversight Subcommittee that he Chairs will launch an investigation into Hutchinson. Loudermilk says that he discovered that Hutchinson waived her attorney-client privilege in writing with her first attorney in order to provide testimony to the Committee about the reasons why she changed her initial story about what happened.

Hutchinson was first represented by Stefan Passantino when she gave her original statement to the Committee. She later fired Passantino and retained new counsel, who contacted the Committee to inform them she wished to correct certain aspects of her testimony. Hutchinson explained that people "in Trump World" arranged to have Passantino represent her because he was considered loyal to Trump. Passantino, who had worked in the White House, told her that he would represent her free of charge because his fees had already been taken care of. She later learned he was paid by close allies of Trump.

Hutchinson told the Committee that Passantino pressured her to mislead the Committee and to omit certain important and relevant facts about what was happening in the White House leading up to the events on J6. Passantino denied any wrongdoing in his representation, but resigned from his firm after the controversy. You can read more about that here.

Fucking hell. For a party that claims to be pro Constitution and pro "We The People", Republicans really love Lèse-majesté and hate the Magna Carta.
 
Donald Trump’s attorney, Alina Habba, was spotted rubbing elbows with Republicans in New Hampshire on Tuesday, just the day after asking for a delay in the ex-president’s defamation trial because she was feeling under the weather. Yahoo news link

Habba's attending the victory celebration came to light in part because former trump campaign aide Dylan Quattrucci had a photo taken of himself with Habba at the victory party which he then posted to X/Twitter. (He referred to Habba as a "rock star.")

Reminds me of the tale of the bloke who chucks a sickie, but then gets on Channel Nine News by catching a six at the Gabba.

That's going to require some explaining.
 
Peter Navarro got 4 months for dodging the January 6th investigation.

Trump took the unusual step of saying he might seek to two avenues to appeal the earlier decision: An appeal to the Supreme Court and, potentially, a separate rehearing before the full DC Circuit. That move underscored Trump’s unusual position in a case where he was incentivized to file at the Supreme Court but also wants to preserve his ability to keep the immunity question before the appeals court.

Can he go to SCOTUS immediately? Why would he even want to? Isn't the whole point to make it take longer and longer and that means going to the full DC Circuit court?

Or does this potentially add to the length? I doubt SCOTUS wants to hear a half heard case. I doubt they want to touch this case at all. While the Colorado case provides a number of outs, I doubt SCOTUS wants to create a standard for crimes the President can and can not commit.
 
Orange man baby just wants SCOTUS to block the ruling so he can do a retake at appeal. In other words orange man baby wants to keep delaying.

Docs Obtained by TPM Show Trump Lawyers’ Plan To Make Jan. 6 Last For Days On End

Donald Trump’s months-long effort to overturn his defeat in the 2020 election culminated on a single, now-infamous day: Jan. 6. But there was an alternate scenario gamed out by Trump’s lawyers — one…

And we see the plot. Muck things up until it gets thrown to the House.

How did they not see that what they were planning was illegal? Or didn't they care?
 
The mortar that holds the bricks of the Constitution together is the individual integrity of those who are entrusted to uphold its principles. Once that is lost, the Republic will fall.

Mark Meadows Exchanged Texts With 34 Members Of Congress About Plans To Overturn The 2020 Election

White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows exchanged text messages with at least 34 Republican members of Congress as they plotted to overturn President Trump’s loss in the 2020 election.

Are all of these guys truly guilty of conspiracy?

Yes. And it isn't a secret. The words uttered by the VP during the electoral college vote were somewhat set in stone. Uttered by Cheney, Quayle, Gore, etc... The language in the statement was changed for Pence.

Over half of the GOP voted against the election results in the House of Representatives.

Trump communicated directly with the Legislatures in multiple states. The plan was clear. Georgia was to be the first domino. One that could be used to justify tossing PA, MI, and AZ. Enough electoral votes to drag Biden below 270. Pence was given the updated speech to leap from to pull away the result for Biden and send it to Congress. These people all violated their oaths of office.
