    1. @Liquid Devil Brother .All I said is that I knew what he meant…Do you think I want to see a world war?
      I have two young granchildren.

    1. ​@E Randco *_Trump is highly skilled at the art of the con. “Con” is short for confidence, and it is based on gaining confidence or trust from the potential victim. The skilled con is an expert at “baiting” the rube; telling the target what he wants to hear (as the “bait”), inspiring trust or confidence. Trump is truly a dedicated master baiter, spending a good part of each day master baiting his base._*

    2. @Biden is Garbage You know your babushka told you that the voices in your head won’t stop so long as you continue to eat what you find in the kitty litter box. Besides, you’re scaring the cat, and spoiling your supper. Now back in your cage; there’s a good girl.

    3. @A. Barker MAGA militia broke into the local FBI office and stole all the toilets. They were uncharacteristically very careful, and left no clues. The FBI reported they nothing to go on.

    1. He needs to be charged in attempting to commit fraud against the United States government by telling clients to perjure themselves in front of Congress. Of course, that really shouldn’t be that big of a deal. Look at the Supreme Court Justices Trump put on the bench. They perjured themselves to Congress during their confirmation hearings and Congress still hasn’t done a damned thing about it. Those justices should have already been removed from the court and charged with lying to Congress, as that’s an actual crime.

    2. @Eduardo Oliveira Trump is Trump’s advocate. He cares nothing for you or anyone else other than himself. That’s the common thread of everything he does and says.

  1. Despite the aggressively unscrupulous efforts of Team Trump, Cassidy Hutchinson was 100% truthful and honest.
    Good for her.

    1. @Harold She took an oath which means she took the stand. Even the liberal media is saying it like that.
      If those were hearings, why was the other side not allowed to present its case.
      We only heard one side of the story.

    2. @AT 1984 lmao. You do know she is a republican. As a matter of fact every person who testified against Trump was either a republican official or a republican from Trump’s inner circle. So if you wanted cross examination at a hearing then McCarthy shouldn’t have had a hissy fit and pulled all of the members out. What do you think they would say to change the outcome? I’m genuinely curious.

    3. @Harold Nanzi Piglosi, the witch said no to McCarthy when he gave her a list of R’s who were going to sit on the committee.
      She called them dangerous. That is why war monger Lizard Cheney, and her boyfriend Adam Kinzinger were selected because they hate Trump as much as the Dems do. No dissenting voices were allowed. It’s nothing but a circus.

    4. @AT 1984 Jim Jordan and the other dude was not the in good faith and we have seen how these people act in committees. McCarthy wanted this do be a clown show and he wanted to be all democrats so it could look partisan. Cheney has never advocated for a war moron. That’s her father not her. KinZinger is a military veteran who is also a pilot. You people have no honor about yourselves. You are making Trump’s grievances your grievances like he’s your king. You people are pathetic.

    5. @Harold The Jan 6th committee is nothing but a circus.
      Jim Jordan will investigate Biden’s influence peddling, foreign business dealings, 10% for the big guy. etc.
      He will be the chairman of one of the congressional committees next year.
      Lizard Cheney benefited from the Afghanistan & Iraq war, she’s part of the Cheney family. She loves Biden because Biden’s a war monger just like her and her father. Biden voted for the Iraq war where millions lost their lives.
      How did that turn out? Lizard Cheney wants a war with Russia, she agrees with Biden when he talks about regime change.
      Instead of representing the people of Wyoming and their needs, she choose to go after Trump because he stood up to her father and his lies, that is why she was voted out, she lost her seat by 70%.

  2. “Ethics” is a meaningless term in Trump World. Trump-funded attorneys always put his interests first, forwarded copies of confidential transcripts to him and relayed threats from him to their supposed clients.

    1. @jmgmarcus
      Even if Obama had built them, your missing the point. The horrible thing was taking the children from their parents, regardless of where they put them. Obama didn’t do that unless absolutely necessary.

    2. @Jock Young HAHAHAHAH. Like Obama and Biden haven’t done striked families and children where they sleep in bed. There isn’t a state of emergency at the border now, because of Trump. I’m sorry to tell you, but out of all these people we are discussing….Trump who I never voted for….has the least blood on his hands.

    3. Yep. And his supporters have such low IQs and are so gullible, you can say anything and they believe it, you got to feel sorry for them

    1. @Bacon Wrapped Meatloaf its called willful ignorance and cognitive dissonance for a dear leader. Anyway, no sense arguing with a sheepish parrot. See ya later ya poor gullible fool.

  3. Least surprising news. I’d honestly have been more surprised if they DIDN’T try to get the witnesses to lie. Lying and covering up crimes are Team Chump superpowers.

    1. @casper191985 you got owned badly kiddo….. be glad we’re not standing face to face; you wouldn’t be standing long; nor would you ever be getting up

  4. I wouldn’t expect anything less from a Republican Ethics attorney. This young lady must be the only one in the Trump White House that let their integrity shine BEFORE publishing a book about their experience.

    1. @shade38211 I’m commenting on an allegation, so there’s no need for me to state such. You, however, seem to know there’s no evidence other than an “intern’s” word. By the way, she wasn’t an intern, but a paid aide with her entire career at stake for testifying. Do you know someone else wasn’t in the room with her when she took the call? Or that she didn’t record the call?

      As you say, it’s all allegations until charges are brought against the lawyer or he files a civil suit against her for slander. With all the coverage I’d say the lawyer can file that civil suit by the end of this week. Should be breaking news on Fox. I’ll keep an eye out for it.

    2. @picmanjoe Do u know that? Lmao amazing how you can just insert things that might have happened. If that was the case it would have been out in testimony. 6 years of that might have happened. You almost got him. The great thing is this committee has now set precedent and all the subpoenas that will be set out from gop committees for dems will now be enforced with contempt of Congress charges. Now committees will be headed by gop and they can chose who dems can and can’t be on the committee. When you break from norms those new changes will come back when pendulum swings. You can thank Harry Reid for giving trump 3 supremes by destroying judicial filibuster. Now gotta get back to Twitter files. Enjoy reading the disinformation czars we’re key in peddling disinformation. Garland and Wray are going to hate next year.

  5. I just about spat out my whiskey when they said “Trumps top ethics attorney”. LMFAO. Thats like Satan having a “niceness” image consultant constantly handing him puppies and small babies to kiss. Far out man, you can’t make this stuff up

    1. @Rod You can’t stop laughing? I can only assume someone is jangling a set of keys in front of your wide eyed slack jawed face. Make sure you go potty before bed

  6. Cassidy deserves to be commended for defending our Constitution, by standing up to assaults to that Constitution and by defending the truth. Well done.

    1. @Pontificus Vascillious she testified under oath. Engel and Ornato refused to testify under oath even though they said they would.

    2. *_The coo-coo crew who grew the coup_*
      *_Shall rue the poo upon their shoe_*
      *_They’re overdue for their new zoo_*
      *_(They’ll get no help from you-know-who)_*

    3. @The Equalizer
      Proof of what exactly?!?

      Everything I said is true. Based on facts. Unlike you libs, who go by your ‘feelings’ for the day, and then just call your feelings, your truth.
      Bunch of Karens.

  7. No, it’s not “pushing the bounds.” If you say you do not recall when you do, it is a lie. Telling your client to do so is counseling her to lie to the Committee. Period. In this case it is also witness tampering.

    1. @Biden is Garbage
      You don’t have to copy paste that nonsense after every comment.
      Sorry you don’t speak English, but try to switch it up a bit. You’re BORING!💤

    1. @James Guy Photography I lived in NYC, in the 90s, and was always entertained when an organized crime family turned on their own, and devoured themselves. “Tough” little girls, they all were.

    2. @James Guy Photography Don’t forget Jeffrey Clark from DOJ and Rep. Scott Perry R-Pa. who got Clark into Trump’s Conspiracy Circle.

    3. @Luke_SkyWanker Trump’s followers: Trump is as helpless as a limbless infant because the bad people are in charge.
      Trump: I’m a cowboy astronaut fighter pilot superman with lasers for eyes.

    4. It is illegal to break the law whether your lawyer said it was right or not. He is not the judge. Lawyers who break the law for their client are breaking the law. Witness tampering is a felony… LOCK THEM UP!

    1. @Locobeware did the big bad trumpy bear hurt your feelings? Find a safe place and tell me all about it this place is pretty.

    2. @daniel mackayHe hurt, and continues to hurt, a whole lotta things. Feelings are on that list but they are nowhere near the top.

    3. HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA,HA, HA, HA! If only a grasp on 1st hand knowledge…

  8. Expose those criminals and lock them up. The riff-raff are penalized, but will the congressmen and their cronies get away with it?

    1. She sincerely does not want to do jail time that every one in that circle will be serving for their involvement in 1/6 witness tampering, false statements to FBI, every thing we all already know happened over and over… we need them all in jail.

    2. @Jon Jacoby Nobody is going to jail after 7 long years of chasing ghosts.
      Democrats are a joke and this female is a paid shill.
      She wanted her old job back.
      Trump said nah.

      She’s a huge cry baby.
