      >The Jan. 6., 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol “does not happen” without Donald Trump, former special counsel Jack Smith told lawmakers earlier this month in characterizing the Republican president as the “most culpable and most responsible person” in the criminal conspiracy to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

      >The Republican-led House Judiciary Committee released on Wednesday a transcript and video of a closed-door interview Smith gave about two investigations of Trump. The document shows how Smith during the course of a daylong deposition repeatedly defended the basis for pursuing indictments against Trump and vigorously rejected Republican suggestions that his investigations were politically motivated.

      >“The evidence here made clear that President Trump was by a large measure the most culpable and most responsible person in this conspiracy. These crimes were committed for his benefit. The attack that happened at the Capitol, part of this case, does not happen without him. The other co-conspirators were doing this for his benefit,” Smith said, bristling at a question about whether his investigations were meant to prevent Trump from reclaiming the presidency in 2024.

      I am so stressed out. He can be and should be impeached, but the gesture will essentially only be symbolic for a third time in a row because of how whipped the republicans are.

      What the fuck are we supposed to do? Like really? No safeguards. No accountability. I’m losing my fucking mind.

      Convicted criminals should never be allowed to run for president. In this case especially, but really any case at all. You wouldn’t think that needs to be said. Yet, here we are…

      And the world watched it as it was happening. Truly amazed at the audacity and stupidity it takes to deny this.

      Of course it doesn’t happen without him, he sent them there after telling them for months that the election was stolen.

      The Republican led house judiciary committee were probably saying „hell yeah, thats our guy“ and will handwave all this away.

      Sadly this was all released on a slow news day and secondly screw Merrick Garland for being so damn weak.

      The problems are he committed crimes almost daily and yet nothing is done about it. The Republican Party is complicit and will not act for country over party

      Wouldn’t this invalidate all of Trump’s J6 pardons? They are clearly part of a vast criminal conspiracy that he led.

      I don’t know why I was expecting this to be a “bad lip reading” dub.

      It’s kind of ridiculous that WE ALL COULD SEE THAT PLAIN AS DAY ON JANUARY 6th.

      Yet here we are literally years later. This has to be the biggest mishandling of justice in a political landscape in the history of , at the very least, our country.
