NEW: Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) has filed a federal civil lawsuit against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth Image
Hegseth recently began a process to demote and cut the retirement pay of Sen. Mark Kelly

Kelly's lawsuit seeks a judicial review of the agency's action
Hegseth has criticized Kelly over a video in which Kelly, a retired Navy captain, called on servicemembers to "refuse illegal orders"

Hegseth said he had issued a letter of censure to Kelly, who served in the Navy until 2011. Kelly has pledged to fight the move.

FLASH: Sen Thom Tillis (R-NC) is on Senate floor and he's about to make a motion for "unanimous consent" to expedite the hanging of the January 6th plaque at the Capitol

To honor the police heroes
Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-OR) speaks first: "In 2022, we passed a law .. saying we'd hang this plaque"

"I'm here to team up with my colleague from North Carolina to have a strategy to make sure we *do* have this plaque up"
Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) is now speaking. He recalls that he was on floor in Senate chamber on Jan 6.

Tillis says prior law requiring Jan 6 plaque had a "technical" issue that requires clarity. He says issue can be quickly cured

JAN 6 - 5 years later

Some pardoned rioters are retracing their march from the Ellipse to the Capitol

Some victims are part of a 10am hearing organized by House Democrats

And: Anger, toxicity and confrontation continue to define Jan 6. Still.
Poltico Playbook on Jan 6 just now:

“Today D.C., and much of America, is deeply divided about what happened.

That lack of consensus represents a triumph, of sorts, for Donald Trump, and stands as testament to his unmatched ability both to reshape political narratives and to carry his supporters to extraordinary positions”
Injured DC police officer Dan Hodges says the Jan 6 denialism remains rampant

“Everything on January 6 occurred exactly as it appeared to. There’s no conspiracy here, there’s no, it wasn’t a “Fed-surrection”

NEW: House Speaker Mike Johnson – after two years of deflecting questions on the matter – is now arguing that the legally-required January 6 plaque must be re-considered

(more)
In a statement tonight, a spokesperson for Speaker Johnson says:

"As written, the statute authorizing this plaque is not implementable, and proposed alternatives devised by Democrat House staff, not members, also do not comply with the statute. If Democrats are serious about commemorating the work of USCP officers, they are free to work with the appropriate committees of jurisdiction to develop a framework for proper vetting and consideration, just as the House does for Congressional Gold Medals, commemorative gold coins, and similar ceremonial responsibilities”
Federal law required the Jan 6 plaque to be hung on Capitol grounds by March 2023

It has not been.

ALERT: House Judiciary Committee releases 250+ page transcript of its interview of Special Counsel Jack Smith

Smith testified: "January 6th was an attack on the structure of our democracy in which over 140 heroic law enforcement officers were assaulted. Over 160 individuals later pled guilty to assaulting police that day. Exploiting that violence, President Trump and his associates tried to call Members of Congress in furtherance of their criminal scheme, urging them to further delay certification of the 2020 election. I did not choose those Members, President Trump did"

Special Counsel Jack Smith interview w/ House Judiciary Committee (MORE)

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH): "You just made some pretty definitive statements about your belief that President Trump was guilty of these charges. Is that correct?"

Jack Smith: "Yes, I believe we had proof beyond a reasonable doubt in both cases"

Jordan: "And doesn't the Justice Manual prohibit prosecutors from asserting that a defendant is guilty of something before a jury makes a determination?"

Smith: "When a case is pending, yes."
When he was asked about other election disputes (including 2000 election), Jack Smith told House Judiciary Cmte:

"There is no historical analog for what President Trump did in this case. As we said in the indictment, he was free to say that he thought he won the election. He was even free to say falsely that he won the election"
