“…behind the manicures, relaxing massages and perfect faces of makeup are dozens of Asian American workers who report unsafe working conditions, unfair dismissal and inconsistent wages.” aajavoices.org/losangeles2022…

1/6 committee member @AdamKinzinger , who's co-leading Thursday's hearing, says on CBS the hearing will "open people's eyes in a big way. The reality is, I'll give you this preview, the president didn't do much but gleefully watch television...."
As for hearing from Pence? "I think it would be important to hear anything he's said. I'm not sure we'll get a ton out of him outside of what the staff told us...."
"The big question is, is there benefit in talking to Donald Trump and requesting he come in? That's something we're negotiating back and forth and whether we want to do that. "

@politicongress @AnthonyAdragna @kyledcheney @Olivia_Beavers "These systems are not working. ... Ever since [Jan. 6], I truly believe more security breakdowns have never been addressed." @AOC told reporters
Rep. @AdamKinzinger , who'd also been harassed, told me: "While the guy yesterday didn't feel like a threat to me, it just goes to show what's happening here...it was extremely awful what I read he said to AOC..."

NEW — The Jan. 6 select committee plans to make its most complex case yet at its public hearing Tuesday: that Donald Trump’s words and actions influenced extremists and brought them to the steps of the Capitol.

w/ @kyledcheney

politico.com/news/2022/07/1…
Rep. Stephanie Murphy, who's leading today's hearing along w/ Rep. Jamie Raskin, said they'd show how Trump's Dec. 19, 2020 tweet calling on people to join the Jan. 6 protest ('Be there. Will be wild!') was a "clarion call" to the extremist groups.
“We’ll show you how they began to organize around that date,” she said in an interview. “And you know that they were [not] organizing … for a peaceful protest, because you don’t bring explosives and weapons to peaceful protests.”

1/6 committee member Rep. Jamie Raskin (who's co-leading Tuesday's hearing) tells @costareports on CBS they'll use Cipollone's testimony to "corroborate other things we've learned along the way"
Raskin says we're going to learn about the "fundamental importance" of a WH meeting that took place on Dec. 18 where people urged "new courses of action, including the seizure of voting machines around the country"
"There will be testimony about that, there will be other kinds of evidence submitted about that"
