    All the discussion about the events of Jan. 6 are important. Any idea when the committee is going to move from the event to the causes?

      They already "know" the cause: Trump!

        Like every other fake scandal involving President Trump, they have already decided he is guilty. This dog and pony show is nothing more than an attempt to back fill the evidence to support their a prioi conviction.

        But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
        Than a fool in the eyes of God

          The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

            I figured that. I was watching the news the other night and they said the committee will probably subpoena Trump (and probably other White House staff). Predict Trump will claim Executive Privilege for all and no one will actually testify.

              Just like several of our own posters, they are absolutely obsessed with Trump and are incapable of moving on.

                No wonder that Trump was a real estate mogul, what with his astonishing ability to live rent free in so many heads.

                  I've Civics is pretty much inhabited by either conservatives who have moved on from Trump or the Trump-obsessed. I just don't see any energy in the forum to defend Biden's policies.

                    There are even memes which I've previously posted joking about how virtually nobody is talking about what a great job old Joe is doing, or how great his policy initiatives have been. I think that's partly due to sticker shock.

                      Could be. I'm also beginning to think that a larger percentage of people who voted for him were anti-Trump. Now that he's in office, no one cares or they're getting buyer's remorse.

                        Even the Democrats were concerned about the "enthusiasm gap." Hardly anyone was voting "for" old Joe.

                              I can only imagine you indignantly puffing out your chest as you typed that out in, um, "righteous" fury.

                                A liberal talking about being disrespectful of law enforcement officers. I almost spewed my coffee all over my keyboard.
