Jan. 6 panel plans contempt vote as Trump sues over probe

a reply to: MDDoxs

My honest opinion is that he's not hiding anything, he's just refusing to make this witch hunt easy for the committee. If anything, he's ensuring it will be a circus and those directing it will end up looking like clowns.

Historically, this has been how he has operated and what the outcomes have been... I feel the same about his tax returns. It's a way to make the Left expose themselves as petty little pricks with an axe to grind when whatever it is they're demanding access to is finally granted and they find nothing. It's turning a mockery into a poker game.

To make Trump supporters look like domestic terrorists.

To manipulate public opinion such that any further resistance to accepting the election would be suspect, as well.

Where are the subpoenas for the leaders of BLM and Antifa? They caused more damage in DC than the 1/6 Party. The White House went into lockdown. This did not happen on 1/6 even though there was an insurrection as they say.

Bless this panel! The more Democrats focus on their objects of hate and disdain, the less they're able to accomplish and put on their resume for Nov 2022. (Accomplishment for Democrats / Damage in the eyes of Republicans)

I think he should show us his tax returns ... seriously what is he trying to hide?

Because they are none of our business. You pay his taxes? no? then you do not have a right to know.

Imagine being thick enough to think that the IRS doesn’t have an entire team of people who fine-comb a billionaire business tycoons tax returns every single year since the fricken seventies

If President Trump, candidate Trump or Donald Trump had “anything to hide”, the IRS would know about it

How thick are people?

How thick are people?

DUMMY THICK LOL.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A House committee tasked with investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection is moving swiftly Tuesday to hold at least one of Donald Trump’s allies in contempt as the former president is pushing back on the probe in a new lawsuit.

Trump is aggressively trying to block the committee’s work by directing former White House aide Steve Bannon not to answer questions in the probe while also suing the panel to try to prevent Congress from obtaining former White House documents. But lawmakers on the House committee say they will not back down as they gather facts and testimony about the attack involving Trump’s supporters that left dozens of police officers injured, sent lawmakers running for their lives and interrupted the certification of President Joe Biden’s victory.

What is Trump trying to hide or obfuscate about January 6th? Conversely, what information does he want to prevent those looking for political gain from obtaining, that could be potentially be twisted into yet another smear campaign?

In a very general sense, I am wondering if this money and effort is going towards protecting Trump in a legal sense or if it is part of his political agenda?

My honest opinion is that Trump is trying to prevent some relatively innocuous information on January 6th from being twisted into a circus by political opponents and news outlets. If it were anything more, more decisive action would have already occurred.

Update - November 10, 2021

Turns out the January 6th Committee is your TYPICAL DEMOCRAT pack of deceitful, low-IQ, liars....just like Adam Schiff and Nancy Pelosi's Trump Impeachment Committees were.

Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney ran to CNN a few weeks ago to accuse conservative stalwart Rep. Jim Banks of falsely presenting himself as the Jan. 6 commission’s ranking member.

Banks is, in fact, congressional Republicans’ choice to be their top investigator on the committee, but he has been prevented from fulfilling his duties by Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.

However, it’s Cheney who appears to be misrepresenting herself as the ranking member — that is, the top Republican — on the committee.

January 6 Select Committee staff have been falsely telling witnesses that Republican staff will be present for interviews, according to multiple eyewitness sources and documents.

In fact, not a single Republican-appointed member of Congress nor a single staff member representing the Republican conference is part of the controversial committee.

In 12 months, this useless committee will be made 100% totally toothless by Mid-term election results.

And in 14 months (or less), President Joe Biden will be IMPEACHED and REMOVED by a committee that has integrity and a real job to accomplish.

In that case, you should also show us your tax returns. What's good for the gander, and all...

Your assessment is spot on. Trump fights small meaningless fights solely due to his ego.
