Yeah, we found more.

So?
There were THOUSANDS of people in and around the Capitol on #January6th.
What makes these guys so special?
What makes these 120+ #insurrectionist unique is that the FBI has chosen not to include their images among the others being sought on the #J6 "Most Wanted" list

10 selected agencies— including the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Intelligence and Analysis who have lead roles in countering domestic terrorism and violent extremism—were aware of open-source data about planned
events on January 6, and seven were aware of potential violence planned for that day.
Seven of the 10 agencies developed 38 election-related threat products based partly on open source data to inform security planning (see fig.). Twenty-six of those were about planned events for January 6. Of those, the FBI prepared one and DHS prepared two threat products.
🧵NEW from me: Tom Fitton, the far-right fake lawyer who got Trump into legal jeopardy with NARA previously worked secretly with Trump to falsely declare victory in 2020 before a single vote had been counted tyt.com/stories/7015be… #January6thCommitteeHearings
Trump has had difficulty hiring good lawyers for some time because of his record of urging attorneys to commit crimes, his refusal to heed their advice, and the fact that he doesn't pay bills.
Because of that, he has leaned heavily on Fitton, someone who has never been a lawyer.
Because of that, he has leaned heavily on Fitton, someone who has never been a lawyer.
Like many people who became prominent Trump advisers, Fitton had existed on the margins of Republican politics, regarded by party elites as cranks who shook down the rubes.
As Trump sought to illegally remain in office, most of his legal & campaign staff told him to stop.

Liz Cheney: "We have received new and voluminous documentation from the Secret Service," plus new evidence of attempts to obstruct the investigation. #January6thCommitteeHearings
Liz Cheney: "The central cause of #January6th was one man: Donald Trump."
Liz Cheney: Because he spent two months helping Trump promote dangerous lies, in the full knowledge that he had no evidence to back up his claims, "Rudy Giuliani's license to pratice law has now been suspended." #January6thCommitteeHearings
Das #January6thHearing soll mindestens Geschichte schreiben. Beim heutigen "Finale" soll vor den #MidTerms einmal mehr ein #Trump angelasteter Plan entlarvt werden. Dazu gehören Einflussnahme und Druck auf Pence, das Justizministerium und Wahlleiter, sowie das Aufhetzen des Mobs.
Liz Cheney sagt, es sei viel passiert, seit man mit dem U-Ausschuss begonnen habe. Das stimmt auch für sie, die von ihrer Partei gestürzt wurde. Sie kann nicht mehr für den Kongress antreten. Sollte Trump wieder antreten, will sie die GOP verlassen. #January6thCommitteeHearings
Cheney betont, dass ausgerechnet der Mann, der am besten darüber Bescheid wusste, dass es keinen massenhaften Wahlbetrug gab, bis heute behauptet, die Wahl 2020 sei gestohlen worden: Donald Trump #January6thCommitteeHearings

The President told Mr. Miller that there would be a large number of protestors on January 6, 2021, and Mr. Miller should ensure sufficient National Guard or Soldiers would be there to make sure it was a safe event. Senior adviser Stephen Miller, General Mark A. Milley.

plan, and we’ve got it covered.” @StephenM

Original and slowed down clip of security guard speaking to Alex Jones: It sounds like he could be saying, "It's time to storm the Capitol... They need us backstage." Any audio engineers out there who can learn this up?

.@Liz_Cheney reveals at end of #Jan6thHearings #Trump called a #Jan6thCommittee witness we have not yet seen. The witness did not take the call but told their lawyer. The lawyer told the Committee. The Committee referred it to #DOJ. #USAG, is this enuf for #WitnessTampering yet?
Other shattering testimony:
- The 12/18 meeting #TFG held in #OvalOffice with #SidneyPowell, #MikeFlynn, #Giuliani, & aides was “unhinged”-loud screaming, name-calling, almost coming to fisticuffs.
- They were there to discuss draft order to seize voting machines in key states.

Former Twitter employee: “I was concerned the former president, for the first time, was speaking directly to extremist organizations and giving them directives.” #January6thCommitteeHearings
"If President Trump were any other user on Twitter, he would have been permanently suspended a very long time ago." #January6thCommitteeHearings
Former Twitter employee, knowing that extremists were ready to take up arms: "Trump posting this tweet on Dec 19th was essentially staking a flag in D.C. on Jan 6 for his supporters to come and rally." #January6thCommitteeHearing
During the #January6thCommitteeHearings, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) detailed a Dec. 18 White House meeting in which Trump allies tried to convince him to sign an executive order to seize voting machines.

Last month, The Times reviewed documents that appeared to be one of the earliest iterations of a draft executive order presented to the then-president in the Oval Office on Dec. 18, 2020, in an effort to take control of voting machines.

Supporters on the fringes of former President Trump’s circle explored seeking sweeping authority after the 2020 election to enlist armed private contractors to seize and inspect voting machines and election data with the assistance of U.S. marshals.

Rep. Stephanie Murphy setting up how everything after Dec. 14--after Electoral College was decided, after multiple courts rejected Trump's challenges--Trump et al persisted in attacking election results. She shows video of Mitch McConnell congratulating President-elect on 12/15.
In depo testimony, Eugene Scalia, who was Trump's Labor Secretary, recounts how he told Trump he should concede.

T-Minus 2 minutes until the 7th hearing of the #January6thCommitteeHearings commences!
As we have from the first hearing, we are once again live tweeting the #January6thCommitteeHearings - we SWEAR we will put up a comprehensive thread of threads of all the hearings we live tweeted this weekend!
From hearing 1 to now, Mad Dog PAC has faithfully chronicled live in real time, with a few unfortunate interruptions from C-SPAN smoking crack (thank you CBS for never wavering though), these hearings as they’ve unfolded.
The committee investigating the Capitol insurrection will focus for the first time on the relationship between people in former President Trump’s orbit and the extremist groups that planned and orchestrated the violence on Jan. 6, 2021.
latimes.com/politics/story…
latimes.com/politics/story…
Today's hearing could be one of the most consequential held by the panel, potentially answering the long unresolved question of whether Trump knew that far-right extremist groups such as the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers would storm the Capitol.
latimes.com/politics/story…

It could also potentially answer whether Trump was in contact through intermediaries with the groups’ leaders, who have since been indicted for seditious conspiracy.
