1/ The Democrats have stuck a deep, painful nerve with this request for phone records from a number of 1/6 figures.
As the Aged Elder (my grandmother, long since departed) would say, "The cut hog squeals loudest."
Well, we've got a whole lot of cut hogs, from Qevin on down.

2/ Now I'm going to tell you what the GOP is going to do to try and kill this line of investigation. Because it's EXACTLY what will happen.
They'll find a couple Members who aren't raging lunatic MAGAs.
Those Members will go to Pelosi, Schiff, et al.

3/ And in reasonable, quiet tones, they'll talk about working together. About bipartisanship. They'll privately hint at their disappointment over 1/6.
They'll say, "Sure, maybe Brooks and Greene, but not Kevin...not X and Y and Z. He's a good guy."

4/ They'll work it hard.
Now, Democrats being Democrats, y'all couldn't draw blood in butcher shop as a rule, so I'm going to give you rules here.
This is the answer: "Fuck you."
If you must, "Fuck you, my honorable colleague."

5/ Their guilt is rolling off them in waves. They're drowning in an ocean of flopsweat.
This isn't an exercise in adding more metal detectors or Capitol Cops.
This is about a planned insurrection that had help from Members of Congress.
You should go for broke.

6/ Mo Brook and the rest of the mutant parade were on the side of the people who came there to overthrow an election.
Revealing the network of comms between them, the Trump WH, Stop the Steal, and the rest of the Plot is enormously good, both for the county and politically.

7/ The GOP -- were this jackboot on the other foot -- would ignore the rules, the law, comity, tradition, and everything else to fucking incinerate your party, its candidates and its 2022 prospects.
They'd never, ever, ever, ever stop ratfucking you. Ever.
They'd never, ever, ever, ever stop ratfucking you. Ever.
8/ And with that, please don't fuck up.
If you do, enjoy what happens in January of 2023 when the 5000 hearings on COVID, Afghanistan, and Biden's dog become an endless spectacle.
Oh, and the endless revanchist impeachments.
Toughen up. Draw blood.

9/ You also need to drag Trump and his entire staff to hearings. Raise the costs (financially and politically) of their actions.
Stop fucking around and do it.
You never understand the value of spectacle and intensity.

10/ Also, drag the degenerate weirdos like Roger Stone, the criminals like Ali Ackbar, the blowhards like Alex Jones, Trumpjugend head Charlie Kirk, and the masterminds like Steve Bannon in front of the committee.
Many were paid to be there and to organize this. It's GREAT TV.

11/ That's enough for now.
12/ OK. I lied. A friend of mine just made a great point:
