"The House Jan. 6 committee voted Monday to recommend the Justice Department pursue a batch of criminal charges against former President Donald Trump..."

 CNN reports the unsurprising news. 

"[T[he committee's co-Chair, Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., said... that "among the most shameful" findings of the committee was that Trump sat in the White House watching the violence unfold on TV on Jan. 6, but did nothing, even as advisors and allies begged him to call off the rioters. "This was an utter moral failure," Cheney said of Trump's inaction. "No man who would behave that way, at that moment in time can ever serve in any position of authority in our nation again. He is unfit for any office."

It appears the committee thinks a president can call a demonstration and tell them to go home.

Wince said...

Did Cheney just admitted her improper, political purpose in referring Trump for criminal charges?

Big Mike said...

”This was an utter moral failure," Cheney said of Trump's inaction. "No man who would behave that way, at that moment in time can ever serve in any position of authority in our nation again. He is unfit for any office."

The voters of Wyoming clearly feel that she is unfit to serve “in any office “

Douglas B. Levene said...

I actually agree with Cheney about Trump’s failure to respond properly to the January 6 riot. I do note, however, that his failure to act was not a crime nor evidence of a crime.

wendybar said...

They all need to be tarred and feathered. Everything they are accusing him of, they are guilty of themselves.

Rocketeer said...

Infamy, forever.

The J6 committee members I mean. It really has been a banana republic show trial. The difference being that the competence of these members doesn’t rise to the banana republic level.

GrapeApe said...

Good grief, that woman is brain dead. Anyone who thinks Trump organized that mess needs to see a neurologist. Bye Liz.

Whiskeybum said...

..."among the most shameful" findings of the committee was that Trump sat in the White House watching the violence unfold on TV...

Wait... was that before or after he was out driving in the presidential limo, grabbing the wheel (from the back seat, no doubt) from the chauffeur to try to get over to the Capitol?

In one case, he's sitting around watching TV, bored, taking no action as those around him begged him to do something; in the other case, he's driving around DC, trying to take control of the limo like a madman, to get to the scene of the action. Both scenarios taking place during the same period of time.

Please get your lefty talking points straight between yourselves before communicating them through your MSM.

Unexpectedly!

I'm shocked. Behold, my shocked face.

Trump sat in the White House watching the violence unfold on TV on Jan. 6, but did nothing

Apparently all he had to say is: "The Capitol is secure."

Jersey Fled said...

The worse thing that he did was something that he didn’t do?

Mark said...

Watching TV and doing nothing is not a criminal offense.

If they were not constitutionally immune, these jokers should be held liable for malicious prosecution.

MikeR said...

Okay. I recommend that it doesn't.

robother said...

So, when the Governor of Colorado sat in his home while the BLM/Antifa took over the State Capitol building in June 2020 and did nothing for a month while the occupiers did millions of dollars worth of damage, that was a crime. Good to know.

Donald J. Trump@realDonaldTrump Jan 6, 2021

I am asking for everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence! Remember, WE are the Party of Law & Order – respect the Law and our great men and women in Blue. Thank you!

MadisonMan said...

According to voters in WY, Liz Cheney is also unfit for office. I suggest that the list of politicians unfit for office is actually very long.

RideSpaceMountain said...

I love how they 'voted to recommend'. LMAO they voted...how quaint. So very very 2 years ago. So very nostalgic. I hope she said this wearing a cowboy hat, that would make it much more delicious.

Gahrie said...

Hey Liz..how about encouraging the violence of the BLM movement?

farmgirl said...

"This was an utter moral failure," Cheney said of Trump's inaction. "No man who would behave that way, at that moment in time can ever serve in any position of authority in our nation again. He is unfit for any office."

Tell me…
Is this what they call: the rub?

jae said...

"In other news- the sun rose in the east this morning..."

Dave Begley said...

Liz, the Dems and DOJ will be doing the GOP a giant favor by indicting and convicting Trump.

He can't run if he's in jail. And he can't win now even if he's not indicted.

Ron the Second wins and pardons Trump. "Our long national nightmare is over."

Dave Begley said...

Will we ever know exactly how the Nancy duped Trump and didn't have adequate security at the Capitol on J6?

Nancy completed outwitted Trump with her own Reichstag fire.

JK Brown said...

This raises the issue of whether a DC jury should be the ones that pass judgement on something of import to the who nation.

There should be legislation calling for cases like this and other litigation of the bureaucracies not be solely the purview of the DC circuit but rather randomly assigned among the various circuits so that the outcomes of lawsuits and prosecutions of national impact are not controlled by a small cabal on the Potomac.

Dave Begley said...

Nancy and Chuck were interviewed by CNN person at a Chinese restaurant last week.

"Speaker Pelosi. How did you outwit Trump with your own Reichstag fire on January 6th? Did the FBI help? And who the heck is Ray Epps?"

Shouting Thomas said...

The sabotage of the 2024 election begins, led by the same villains who sabotaged the 2020 election.

The malefactors knew Trump would win in 2020. That’s why that election had to be sabotaged. Apparently, they are convinced Trump will win in 2024. Thus, the campaign of sabotage continues.

This is the ultimate confession of guilt by the saboteurs.

n.n said...

Self-impeachment 3.0. And all because Trump challenged the established ethics of redistributive change through progressive prices, coups without borders, and human rites.

rcocean said...

Well, there's a lie right there. Trump didn't tell his supporters to enter the Capital Building, they didn't do so because he asked them to, and when he found out, he tweeted and went on TV to tell them to stop. Liz Cheney is a liar in so many ways. I hope she has one shred of decency left, and becomes a Democrat.

The real question is why were the protesters let into the Capital, why weren't there enough police at the Capital, and why wasn't the DoD offer of NG troops accepted by the DC Mayor or Pelosi? Other questions: How many of the Capital Hill protesters were FBI/DHS assets? And how many were leftwing plants desiring to stir up trouble?

Maybe the Republican congress can find out the answers.

Lucien said...

"They're unable to see properly, they're confused, they're having hallucinations."

Gusty Winds said...

Liz Cheney lies just like her war mongering father. I guess the WMD lie that killed half a million Iraqis and thousands of American troops doesn't really matter to her.

Our new country is kicking ass!! Thank God we are moving on from Trump using falsehoods, censorship, voter fraud, and FBI infiltrators.

Right Althouse??? Calms our sensibilities. The totalitarian left may have the country by the balls but at least Trump can't grab it by the pussy!!

Humperdink said...

Liz Cheney (D-Deposed) said: "He is unfit for any office." ..... as she was summarily booted from office by her constituents.

AlbertAnonymous said...

“"among the most shameful" findings of the committee was that Trump sat in the White House watching the violence unfold on TV on Jan. 6, but did nothing…”

Talk about your incitement to violence and insurrection.

I’m pretty sure the same can be said about Nancy Pelosi, and a host of others.

God help us all when seeing things unfold and ‘doing nothing’ is a criminal act.

Sebastian said...

"did nothing"

Worse than a ham sandwich. Indict him.

"call off the rioters"

Like, all those deplorables entering through open doors before shuffling down hallways?

Amadeus 48 said...

And that inactivity, plus some other things, is why I don't support Trump anymore. But criminal charges?? Nah. That is political hackery by a cabal of Trump's enemies.

lane ranger said...

Oh No! Anyway . . . .

Sheridan said...

When I think of Liz Cheney I think of Benito Mussolini in his early fascist days, long before his connection with Germany. Black uniform, hands on hips, head turning and bobbing at the same time. Playing to the crowd. Good times those. History may not repeat itself but it does inform us.

mikee said...

Maybe a mean tweet would have worked to stop the crowds.
It might even have kept Trump on Twitter.

Gusty Winds said...

Did they refer any charges for Ray Epps?

Narr said...

I heard a bit of the NPR coverage. They were playing a quite artful assemblage of testimonies, some from familiar voices and others unknown to me.

I feel frisky, so I'm going to make a prediction: either or both Trump and Biden will be dead or otherwise physically unable to run in '24.

Not sure about Gov. Ron.

Ficta said...

What @Wince said. She doesn't even bother to talk about any alleged crimes. This is a naked attempt to block him from running for president because he morally offends her. A bit surprising that she just comes out and admits it.

Earnest Prole said...

If the House had crafted a single, narrow article of impeachment the day after the Capitol riot, focused solely on Trump’s three-hour dereliction of duty January 6, it likely would have carried two-thirds of the Senate within days. Instead the House pursued elaborate incitement and insurrection charges that are notoriously difficult to prove, with predictable results. It’s almost as if Democratic leadership has a greater interest in keeping Trump around than Republicans do.

Bob Boyd said...

So they're recommending he be prosecuted for something he didn't do?

Achilles said...

There were dozens of BLM riots that were more violent than the J6 protest.

But they were Regime supported rioters burning down businesses of political opponents so we know why they are treated differently.

Butkus51 said...

They should have investigated her Daddy. Over 7000 service people dead. 30,000 have committed suicide.

At the White House Corresponents dinner Bush had a little video of him looking for WMD. He didnt find any. It was all too cute. The people (press) laughed and laughed.

Im sure crying little Adam kinzinger knew of some who died.

Interesting pals there.







Gusty Winds said...

Dick Cheney looks the other way while Iraqi prisoners are psychologically tortured during a war for non existent WMDs.

Liz Cheney looks the other way while American citizens are detained and psychologically tortured for a fake "insurrection".

All of this to cover up corruption, voter fraud, and lives wasted.

Ain't that America!!! Little Pink Houses...for you and me...

Oh shit...I forgot. John Mellencamp is on the Cheney's side...

Iman said...

What a clown show. These people are despicable and to Hell with them.

The democrats called for riots and got them. I suppose they think you can stop a demonstration that way, too.

In other news, water is wet. There was never any doubt how this august body would conclude its proceedings. The real question was and is, what will Merrick do?

BUMBLE BEE said...

What No National Guard? Didn't Pelosi have some out in the garage?

Mason G said...

From NPR:

Donald Trump on Twitter: "These are the things and events that happen when a sacred landslide election victory is so unceremoniously & viciously stripped away from great patriots who have been badly & unfairly treated for so long. Go home with love & in peace. Remember this day forever!"

Also Donald Trump: "I know your pain. I know your hurt. We had an election that was stolen from us, but you have to go home now. We have to have peace. We have to have law and order. We don't want anybody hurt."

And more Donald Trump: "This was a fraudulent election but we can't play into the hands of these people. So go home. We love you. You're very special."

But yeah, he didn't do anything. Democrats are garbage people.

Vance said...

Wait.... so the left seems to think that the President of the United States can call up a group of citizens and order them to go home and not protest?

I.E. to trample on their 1st Amendment rights?

Since when did a US President get the right to overrule the 1st Amendment at will?

Paul said...

And this Jan 6th, Big Daddy and Hunter will be under the spotlight....

And unlike Trump, just lots of incriminating evidence left by Hunter.

Gonna be fun to watch.

William said...

All of this falderal, and not one media source has mentioned that SEVEN of the members on the nine-member committee are Democrats and only two are Republicans. Furthermore, the two Republicans (both vehement anti-Trumpers) are both lame ducks; their time in Congress is rapidly drawing to a close.

To listen to the media, you'd think that the entire House was behind this charade. Six Dems and two lame-duck RINOS. What a nothing-burger.

Give me a break.

wendybar said...

The brainwashed are all celebrating tonight. They don't realize that they are the useful idiots indoctrinated into thinking the government was on our side. They deserve EVERYTHING they are about to get. It isn't going to stop here. They never stop.

wendybar said...

Meanwhile, SCOTUS puts a hold on Biden ending title 42, but we all know the corrupt DOJ, who has 24 hours to respond will cancel it, causing chaos....ala Cloward and Piven style!!!

Never waste a crisis afterall...gotta get Hunter out of the news cycle!!

Seamus said...

You know, it's possible to watch a riot on television, and even to be guilty of "moral failure" by not telling the rioters to stop, without being guilty of inciting the riot.

Jim at said...

focused solely on Trump’s three-hour dereliction of duty January 6

It would be helpful if you - or anyone on your side of the aisle - could explain, in detail, just WHAT Trump should've done that he didn't do.

Michael said...

So, Liz. You've dragged this out for two years and this is all you've got: a sham and a pretense? We are not surprised.

Mr. Magoo could see that from a mile away... before the first committee hearing.

They lose.Next

Creola Soul said...

So, let me get this straight. Every riot, no matter when or where, is the President’s fault? Maybe this is why BLM has been so quiet recently, don’t want Joe having to come down on them.
The Ds have changed the standard here, they should be held accountable to it. But they won’t be…..

Freeman Hunt said...

Huge moral failure, and would agree that it makes him unfit for office. But is it a crime?

traditionalguy said...

Does this mean the Dems no longer have all that evidence that this President was a Russian stooge taking direct orders from Vladimir Putin. All they have is his supporters touring the Capital in a rude way.

Esteban said...

If being a POS and bad at your job were a crime, just about all of the politicians would be and should be in jail.

GRW3 said...

One of the things they are so enraged about in regard to Twitter is that reopening DJT's account allows access to the contemporary tweets where he told people to go home.

Dear corrupt left, go F yourselves said...

A mistake to be sure - but no mention of all the FBI agents egging people on.

The committee is a one-sided show-trial. Pelosi only allowed her picks - and not a single member offered any push back to the narrative.

Shameful. Shame on Liz Cheney. They didn't get to the truth.
If they did - where is mention of John Sullivan?

Tank said...

It seems that I say this every day now, but this is what they do in third world, shit hole countries.

B. said...

Was he supposed to get out in front of the Capitol with a bullhorn and a rifle?

Lewis Wetzel said...

So, was it illegal for Trump to say the election was stolen from him?
I know the Trump deranged like to think of Trump's people breaking open cases of Martini-Henry rifles and passing them out MAGA people on the capitol lawn, but that is not what happened, is it?

Gospace said...

What Narr said. They’re both old, they’re both vaxxed and therefore have a damaged immune system. I don’t think Trump voters will vote for a brain addled Trump.

Biden voters, especially the middle aged women registered to vote at empty frat houses (reported the other day but no MSM coverage…) have already shown they’ll vote for a brain addled Biden, or Fetterman, or even a dead Democrat. So we can’t even be certain the DNC won’t run Biden’s worm infested corpse.

Yes, that "dereliction of duty." What exactly was he supposed to do? Order all the peasants to go home? He suggested it. Only the Biden junta can give Americans orders and imprison them without trial. Fascism has finally descended on the US after all those false warnings.

I love y'all respond to Trump watching the riot unfold on TV as if he wasn't President of the United States. Pelosi called the governor of Virginia and asked him to send in the guard. Pence took command of the situation the second he could. But apparently can only sit there on TV watching the Capitol be looted by his supporters. Nothing he can do about it. He has no actual power.

To the people who still insist that the election was stolen: explain why this is not Trump turning Benedict Arnold on us? If the election was stolen, like really stolen, don't those patriots have every right to re-take the Capital that our revolutionary heroes had? Shouldn't they have used violent force to prevent the the illegitimate takeover of our government. Isn't it tree of liberty time if you really believe the shit you say you believe?

Either Biden beat Trump fair and square or Trump is a traitor who called off the patriots when America needed them. There is no in between. When the troops were on the ground he didn't have the backbone to do what was necessary to protect America. He was a coward and he sold you down the river. Some hero you got there.

Mason G said...

"When the troops were on the ground he didn't have the backbone to do what was necessary to protect America."

Troops? You mean a bunch of people armed with... smartphones? Are you fucking nuts?

Mr Wibble said...

Nothing he can do about it. He has no actual power.

He didn't have any actual power. He can't call out the national guard without first declaring DC to be in rebellion, or receiving a declaration from the city that they could not longer maintain law and order, neither of which would have happened. Certainly the riot would have been over before any troops could arrive. The Capitol Police were under the control of Pelosi. DC police were under the control of the Mayor. All he could do was ask for people to peacefully leave the area.

Lurker21 said...

There's some seriously faulty logic there. Nixon conceded the 1960 election to Kennedy, even though he thought he had been fairly elected. Did that make him a traitor? Trump urged his supporters to peacefully protest, not to seize the capital. The count was still going on and hadn't been concluded, so why break it up in a moronic attempt to take over the capitol?

Trump still thinks he won, and he may even still think he could be reinstated, but my understanding is that he hadn't yet lost the day when the messiness at the Capitol started. Chaos and disorder would only prevent his case from being heard and ensure that Congress would certify the count that he objected to. I suspect that Trump recognized rowdiness and violence wouldn't change things. It turns out he did have some respect for the process and, at least on that day, didn't want to "burn the whole thing down."

Trump will go down in history as a traitor. His name will be reviled. And the people who voted for him and continued to support him even after the crimes he committed will have to explain to their great grandchildren how they could’ve been so stupid to fall for a POS like Trump.

Earnest Prole said...

It would be helpful if you - or anyone on your side of the aisle - could explain, in detail, just WHAT Trump should've done that he didn't do.

Trump already answered that for you. Three hours into the Capitol violence Trump told protesters, “You have to go home now. We have to have peace. We have to have law and order. We have to respect our great people in law and order. We don’t want anybody hurt. We have to have peace. So go home. . . . and go home at peace.”

Trump's oath ("so help me God") to the Constitution required he do whatever was within his power the moment protesters broke through the barriers surrounding the Capitol. Instead he watched television for three hours and did nothing, which is a dereliction of duty and a violation of his sacred oath. Eventually he got around to uttering the words above.

I suspect if President Joe Biden remained mute while his supporters stormed the Capitol in an effort to overturn the 2024 election, your imagination would be fully capable of telling us, in great detail, what the Constitution required of Joe Biden. Allowing your imagination to desert you at this moment is what's called willfully obtuse.

Biden's best move right now would be to resign and let Trump try to fix the mess the people using him as a puppet have caused.

You can see it in his eyes during some of his lucid moments. He knows how much the country hates him.

Since Kamala put on her website the place to send donations to release BLM and Antifa scumbags after they looted and rioted, maybe SHE should be convicted for helping them after they burned down our cities. Fair is fair, right?? Imagine if Trump bailed out the Political Prisoners that ARE still in the DC gulag after 2 years for trespassing?? This government is a joke. We are a laughingstock of the world.

There were 2 differences between 2017 and 2021.

2017 was an FBI sanctioned violent riot. THOSE were okay and were called peaceful by the idiots who claim 1/6/21 was worse than 9/11 where the only 2 people killed that day were murdered by Capitol police.

Instead he watched television for three hours and did nothing, which is a dereliction of duty and a violation of his sacred oath.

Wait. I thought he was trying to get TO the rally. You know, grabbing the steering wheel and all that. Make up your minds.

Violation of his sacred oath. It is to laugh.
You're no better than the drooling hyena who inhabits this board.

Trump proved he knew perfectly well how to discourage violence at the Capitol; he simply waited three hours before taking action. By way of comparison, if a fire chief ignored a fire alarm while a fire in his city raged out of control, then got around to sending fire trucks three hours later, we’d all understand it as dereliction of duty. Trump did the same here.

The J6 committee is, to any thinking person, a pile of blathering morons. But the blathering moron population of America deserves representation too. We are an idiocracy.

Now we can look forward to blathering moron prosecutors, judges, and jurors in DC. Perhaps judge Sullivan can be in charge of Trumps persecution. He blathers well.
