Former Trump administration aides Stephanie Grisham, Alyssa Farah Griffin, Olivia Troye and Sarah Matthews discuss the January 6 committee’s criminal referral of Donald Trump to the Justice Department for obstructing an official proceeding, defrauding the US, making false statements and giving aid or comfort to an insurrection. #CNN #News
Ex-Trump insiders react to criminal referral for former president
They knew how Trump was and didn’t care, now they want us to believe that they are so disgusted with Trump. Give me a break!
bonita…exactly!!
They supported this poor excuse for a president for 4 years. They only quit when they saw the scheme to steal the election wasn’t going to work. That includes the cabinet members that resigned on the eve of the 6th.
They are Republicans and sup[ported him, but Jan 6 was too much for them. Not that hard to understand.
@jaime patena right. Better late than never. Cause there are a lot out there who STILL won’t speak against him!
@adam they are among the worst. Those claiming in God’s name their support of rump. An awful example of any sort of righteousness or virtue. In fact, he basically mocks it on a regular basis.
Thankfully, there are a fair amount of Christian leaders who do not support him. Not surprisingly, though, they don’t get nearly as much ink as his supporters do.
Nixon-“I am not a crook!”
tRump- “I admit I am all the time and nothing happens”
Bahahahahaha
Or . . . “It’s me. I am the greatest. I can do whatever I want, and any criticism of me is just because of jealousy”.
But trump used to be an astronaut and jet pilot, don’t they have integrity
@Islandstyles tRump *LOST* to Brandon…how embarrassing LMAO
@Larry Jones I hope you’re right!
I always told my nephews, be careful who you associate with. These people knew what they were getting into,
Ok 😂
So Orwells 1984 is better eh?
You weren’t disturbed by anything else before January 6th? There’s a problem with that
It was a peaceful protest
Exactly, fake women, hypocrites. You don’t get any sympathy for you
@Francisco Charles I think this is a matter of some get it at once, while others get it at last.
I’m sure they were. Just not enough to speak out and take action and risk losing their jobs. Of course by the time January 6th came along, there were only two weeks left in the administration anyway. So what the hell’s to lose by then?
And they will vote repub again even though the repub party has not changed. It is still the party of dump. Getting their five minutes.
The world knows the truth and now real history has it locked in for future generations to see and understand.
Yes. Excellent point!
@ericvanjames8395 Do you remember during Iraq war. Cnn told us that Iraq was throwing babies out of incubators? Was proven to be a lie.
@Eric Van James Or when cnn said orange got piss on in russia?
@Larry Templeton You just hear what the fake news media tells you and you eat it up instead of doing a little research how lazy
@Chris Garret Why do you resort to name calling oh I forgot your a liberal
All these women have more balls than most men in the GQP.👏
@Skreety04 I am assuming this is an announcement of some fetish. There is a mechanics degreaser brand called Goop. Its thick, white and it sounds as though you may have dipped your sack in some?? I can’t be sure, but if you did they wouldn’t be skreety anymore, they’d be squeaky clean.
Losers losers losers
It’s not funny if you date a woman and shortly into the relationship you
discover she’s got balls , real balls it happened to me a number of years ago. I ran for the hills she / he didn’t even have the courtesy to warn me .
@robert irvine Except Liz & these girls, & a few others.
@ChenZen true, & they are now receiving death threats, so it’s cost them more than us arm chair patriots on YouTube comments.
Trump’s use of Nondisclosure Agreements and cronyism protected his Criminal Activity after he became president of his Father’s Real Estate Business in 1971. He deserves all the Legal Problems that will come his way and it will be a Good Thing when he gets a date in court with Lady Justice.
He won’t what? Are you in a banana republic? He’s toast. Going down you useless Con man. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Trumped lol.
@Dumbis 4Ever Pace yourself as you consume your popcorn because it is going to be a Long Show. Thanks for the reply.
@Bob Dollar 937 like all the other investigations of Trump which just got thrown out in the garbage……. keep hoping….. i’m enjoying the meltdowns of all you clowns
@Tony Keep telling yourself that while it’s already happening. 😄
@Dumbis 4Ever Try not to run out of popcorn because this will be a Long Running Movie. Thanks for the reply.
What’s right is right and wrong is wrong. Gotta charge these people involved. Shouldn’t even take this long
Leave trump alone already and find another obsession
@Biden is Garbage your name alone ends your credibility on that topic
@Biden is Garbage
Waaaaaaa🤣🤣🤣 sweet MAGA tears.
@Biden is Garbage The flames have been extinguished, sure. But we still gotta stomp on the embers.
I totally agree
The entire Committee did an excellent job. I hope the DOJ sees so very clearly what the Committee investigated and uncovered. It is up to the DOJ to seek out and hold accountable those Republicans who chose to be the coward actors who turned their back on this Committee by keeping their mouth shut. As Ms. Chaney so eloquently put it, “…There will come a day when Donald Trump is gone, but YOUR dishonor will remain,”
@Robert Hartford Donald Trump is the lie. Enjoy!
@Big durk Dump Trump 24
@jason fuchs The DOJ has more than enough evidence to indict Donald Trump.
@Robert Hartford Speaking of “feeble-minded”, where were you on January 6th, Robert?
@Robert Hartford You’re right about one thing. Donald Trump’s criminal activity is well-documented.
Women. All women. From Trump WH aides to Liz Cheney YOU have made the difference. Thank you for your commitment to truth and honor. You define the very word MOXIE.
Women have confronted him in many instances! You go girls!
Agreed! But more than anything, they have a displayed a degree of courage that is unmatched by almost all of the men in this situation.
Their courage and the lack of it by others is just incredible.
Heroines v spineless GOP male Republicans eg Graham, McCarthy, Guliani et al.
rump Trump Trump cases right before he even became President……….. non-stop………… it’s only these clowns…..journalist/activists who keep constantly condemning Trump,……………… but Trump and the Republicans cares a dam……….. we are enjoying the meltdowns
No balls, no spine: Jim Jordan, Kevin McCarthy, Lindsey Graham, Matt Goetz, MTG (not to confused with MSG), Ted Cruz, Mark Meadows.
My respect for all this woman’s that had the courage to tell the truth on all this serious investigation on United States.
@Andy Lord Supporting folks that got duped is one thing. Supporting active participants who possess the will for all to know better, have inside information of what was going to be attempted, and play along until crap hit the fan, I’m sorry but I just can’t get behind that.
Three of them stayed until Jan 6 2021, they were paid well to represent the Con. They are no heros.
@Fuey Manchoo It is more important to win than it is to style on the losers. Let them pretend they never participated (assuming no criminal action), just let the problem fade into nothingness.
We need to be pragmatic. Defeating the sickness 45 brought to politics is the goal, taking time to dunk on his supporters serves no purpose towards that goal and drives them further into the crazy.
@Biden is Garbage I’ll send some tissues to you when they impeach Trumpty Dumpty, you’ll need it.
@ChenZen and they will fail again 🤣
Yes please press the charges and let everyone know there is punishment for criminal actions
Thanks to Misses Cheney and Mister Kenzinger for all they have done for the american people versus Donald Trump.
@Adrien St-Julien They sacrificed their careers, but I’m afraid it will have been for nothing. Trump will get off. He’ll delay and delay and delay and wind up dying in maralargo in a room full of hookers and blow.
its great that these people are finally telling some of the truth, but keep in mind, they are not dumb. they knew whop Dumpsterfire was, the whole time they worked for him. They chose power and prestige and money over honor and integrity. Every single thing they did that was illegal should be charged.
^ 💯 💶
I totally agree, they wasn’t playing the poor little me roles when their bank accounts and lifestyles were being enabled by this criminal enterprise. They should be prosecuted.
I see this differently. They chose to work for the executive branch which had a president Who revealed himself more and more clearly to be a traitor. The fact that they are willing to be seen in this dangerous environment is the definition of true courage.
@Susie B I agree with you Susie B
I don’t think they signed up to work for a criminal. They realized it mid stream.
You’re so full of crap
These women are NOT Liberals, they are some of the staunchest Conservatives. Heed their words GOP.
@independent-me By you I guess. Name calling is such an intellectually impressive thing to do. You should put naneenaneebooboo after your comments from now on.
@Duality
🤣😂 Hitler wasn’t a Communist !!! He was a Facist…He hated Communism and especially Stalin..
Why do you think he invaded Ryssia in WW2 ?
andrew callaghan Toasted cnn the other day. Called out their business model of fear and loathing. Lol
Donald Trump is a real President….. Joe Biden is a trans President
@mike myers
A Real President? And just what did he do for his supporters that he promised to do? Biden has already made good on several of his..
The Committee refused to directly implicate the 99% of GOP Congressmembers who’ve provided “aid & comfort” to insurrectionists (& those who committed treason) who are worthy of IMMEDIATE dismissal from public office. And that’s the most critical action that can be taken. ASAP.
The Committee was responsible for Trump. The justice department is responsible for the wider net. They won’t play their hand until they have a winning hand.
They did mention “others”, in Congress.
It will be a fascinating trip down this road.
Hopefully Special Counsel Jack Smith/DOJ will investigate and indict, accordingly. ~
I find it incredible that it had to come for January 6th to happen, for people to realise what trump was all about. It was clear way before 2015.
Decades before, to anyone paying attention.
I find it incredible that even after January 6th happened that 10s of millions of his followers still cannot open their eyes to what he is all about.
@The Insane Sheckladormy father is a Trump supporter, still wearing his MAGA hat daily.
I suspect at this point it’s a large degree of self-preservation and sunken cost fallacy. To admit they are wrong now is to acknowledge an error in judgement, which simply too much for them to bear psychologically, so they double, triple , quadruple down on.
No matter how bad Trump gets, my father’s support only hardens. There’s something fascinating going on psychologically, because no American can support this man and look at themselves in the mirror with a straight face.
1985, if you’re from NY metro area – as said, decades!
Let’s hope our institutions remain strong enough to see this through to the end. The DOJ has to do their job and bring justice to bear on those who would threaten the US with their traitorous actions.
i am a trump cultist , “jesus” trump” said we should overthrow the constitution so we blindly follow what o great leader say because he never tell any lies nor conspiracy’s .wrong or right i don`t care. lmao daoh ..Have a genius bleach & putin vodka and merry Christmas all you rep lizards
I hope the Insanity Institution can hold Rump and his Cronies
@barrny royal Alternative lies don’t = facts.
Get your facts straight buddy or go to Russia where you can see what the difference between a patriot and a traitor actually is.
@LollieVox (Laurie Webb ) been there and seen the difference
@barrny royal You’re funny
Thank you for being an advocate for Cassidy Hutchinson–She was the first person who testified in public, and we know her life has been threatened. ALL of those who testified willingly deserve the appreciation of the American public, but especially Cassidy and the women who were election officers/poll workers in Georgia!
@Longji Dalu then why stay in office, why not resign but not say a word, they collected a pay cheque from him month after month while he tear gassed peaceful protestors, killed tens of thousands with his Covid policies and committed what it is now clear where crimes.
They stayed in office after he had lost the election despite everything he said and did. The only left when it became obvious the ship was sinking and they didn’t want to stay on board and as I say now many of them are cashing in.
@richard c With the benefit of hindsight everyone can show how they would have done better as you are claiming just now but the fact still remains that Trump’s breaching of the norms was not an event but rather an accumulation that added up to a crescendo you can say with benefit of hindsight they should have jumped earlier but I still put it to you that they wouldn’t have amounted to anything and worse the harassment would have been worse than what they are suffering from Trump loyalists to date.
@Longji Dalu it isn’t just them, pence, the GOP in congress and the senate many are culpable, but enough people have come out afterwards and claimed they where unhappy with what trump was doing months before.
The only way to prevent something like this from happening again is learning how everyone involved became culpable, you can’t just point at trump and say it was all his and his close advisors fault, if they are truly “brave” these people will admit they allowed things to happen that shouldn’t have done, they will take responsibility for there part in it. The fact is they instead all point at everyone else and say it was someone else’s fault.
@richard c Very brave of you to leave the big fish and go after the hatchlings. Trump and his inner have not even been put to the stand and you are suggesting they should go after that brave woman that was the first to speak out with immediate clapback from Trump loyalists I might suggest you might want them prosecuted for exactly what core Trump supporters want.
@richard c where we’re all the most powerful and influential MEN speaking truth to power??? They FAILED Americans so very badly! They had WAY MORE PIWER than these women but said and did NOTHING out loud!
Evil prevails when good men fail to act. Winston Churchill.
Very proud of you ladies. Straightforward, honest, intelligent and insightful. Well done.
