That bright young woman deserves a Profiles in Courage Award. I just hope she's safe from Trump's lunatic followers

There was little and now NO Doubt this president was engaged in a coup. In less civilized(?) countries he would be executed. With ALL of the Republicans who have participated in the coup exercise it seems to me beyond imprisoning the ex-president he should be joined by a number of Republican congressional members from BOTH houses.

Trump tried to overthrow the government isn't that treason?

And the most tragic part was that people died that day as a result of their actions/inactions, especially Trump. Absolutely criminal!

So extremely important to watch. I mean, honestly, it's nothing we didn't already know from what we saw with our own eyes on Jan. 6. The emperor was NOT wearing any clothes. We knew he was a sociopath long ago. It's patronizing in a way. Even insulting. But I get that the point is to establish intent. I feel pretty confident that this has finally done that, beyond any reasonable doubt. If not this, then I don't know what.

After hearing all this damning information if the DOJ doesn’t prosecute DT and all his minions I think I must leave my beloved country. It is becoming Gilead

All I can say is what a blockbuster today was! I think many of us could see what kind of person Trump was and that none of this is any real surprise- he’s as selfish and crazy as they come. But my anger towards those fools who voted for and supported this insurrectionist president for ignoring what we could see was coming is palpable. I hope every voter gets out to the polls this November to send a clear message we don’t want these traitors in office anymore for not only their support of Trump but for their wishy washy gun laws and the loss of our reproductive rights.

The U.S. government and Supreme Court have hit rock bottom. My dad who fought for this country and against fascism for five years in WWII is spinning in his grave.

I have been working all day and wondered what the surprising witness and testimony would be. Your e mail is my first notifiction of this Michael. I have to say, I knew from the first that he helped plan it. His statements, actions, Bannons statements prior all pointed to it. A client just cancelled for tonight which will give me time to watch C Span. Keep up the good fight, Michael. Thank you for all you do!

I watched a brave young 25 yr. old woman deliver an honest testimony this morning while putting herself at great risk. The information gleaned from her words brought new knowledge to the Hearings and to the American people. I am thankful for her and others who have put country first over party.

I often thought that the woman's March and other groups had lost their way.The intense protests about abolish of RoweVs Wade and other things are to focus on the wrong thing!

They should be out protesting to incarcerate Tr*&#$$. Hasn't anyone seen how he manipulated the press with his slight of hand? Miss-direction to get other things done? Our protest should be focus on cutting the head of the snake, not reacting to his actions.

When will the former orange guy be in custody? Is he not already out of the country? He is the Bennadict Arnold of our age and should be charged with treason, have his US citizenship taken away. He has no rights in this country. As a non citizen maybe he can spend time at Guattamo Bay for betraying his trust in the American people.

Once a snake oil salesman, always a snake oil salesman.

I watched it live this afternoon and then again this evening with my husband. Unbelievable but totally in keeping with what we know of Mr Trump, a film flam, narcissistic grifter who sold the most expensive snake oil in the history of our country and except for the brave, mostly Republican witnesses who testified “The Emperor has no clothes”…would have destroyed our democracy. Even though we may not agree with their politics, thank God for Cassidy and the rest of those who honor their oath to the United States regardless of the considerable consequences.

It’s been a rough week...

Thanks, Michael

I've thought all along that Trump is certifiably crazy and his followers gullible as they come but what's the Republican politicians' excuse. How any thinking person could vote for them after this is beyond me. Today's testimony was riveting. Thank you January 6th committee for your dedication to saving our democracy! Hopefully the voters will do their part in November and 2024.
