You read about it at PROOF. Now it's in the New York Times. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
PS/ Remember—as discussed at PROOF first—that Roger Stone suddenly decided not to lead the march and indeed to flee the area not long after corresponding with these men. He abandoned a speech he was going to give. He knew what was coming. What we don't know is if he warned Trump.
PS2/ We *do* know his fellow Stop the Steal organizer and paramilitary aficionado Ali Alexander was in touch with Donald Trump Jr's girlfriend Kim Guilfoyle the night before. We do know his fellow Stop the Steal organizer Alex Jones was in touch with Michael Flynn the day before.

(1 of 2) For those confused by some of the horrific legal takes out there tonight: a bill of attainder is a punishment without trial. A resolution regarding insurrection includes no punishment and follows a trial in which a super-majority declared an act of insurrection occurred.
(2 of 2) A resolution of the sort many are suggesting, which could even take the form of Congressional censure, would not include a punishment. If Trump were to try to run for office again, a state could refuse to put him on the ballot. A suit would ensue. That's how it'd work.
(PS) Trump is famous for using the courts to delay an issue until there's no remedy. Any state that kept him off the ballot on the basis of an insurrection censure might tie up the courts for so long Trump could miss his ballot deadlines. But it's even more complicated than this.

People wonder how Sect. 3 of the 14th Am. is executed. It wouldn't, of course, be via a bill of attainder. That'd be illegal. It'd be via a resolution of Congress identifying Trump as having engaged in an act of insurrection. The resolution would bar him if he tried to run again.
If Trump tried to run again, he'd sue to attempt to overcome the impediment of the resolution of Congress—claiming that only a *criminal conviction* works. He would be hindered in the fact that insurrection is not a criminal statute and beyond a reasonable doubt not the standard.
In other words, Congress's argument in that case would be that the plain language of the 14th Am. says nothing about the requirement of a *criminal conviction* (for an offense that isn't even the subject of a named federal statute). A constitutional act by Congress would suffice.

(THREAD) Independent journalists have already created a comprehensive list of impeachment trial witnesses who can *confirm* Team Trump helped plan the insurrection. Those witnesses can now be called. This thread lists the proof. Please RETWEET this widely. sethabramson.substack.com/p/the-fingerpr…

My God any analyst on TV right now who isn't clearly saying the calling of witnesses benefits Democrats has never been in a courtroom and is very unfamiliar with the facts of this case

The calling of witnesses is a spectacular, towering home run for the House managers, period
We were a matter of five hours from a final vote to acquit Donald Trump and now we are in a position in which we may hear from a parade of witnesses with damning evidence against Trump, and Trump's counsel may rail for irrelevant witnesses as it will but will struggle to get them
The play for Republicans is now to refuse to do any Senate business to advance Biden's agenda until the trial is over, thereby trying to force the House managers to only talk to one witness rather than Congresswoman Butler plus Kevin McCarthy and Tommy Tuberville and maybe others
