One day after OGR proved that #mattydickpics is a liar who "censored" information about Trump's efforts to suppress speech, Elise and Turley are treating #mattydickpics as a factual mouthpiece.
BREAKING: Elise says that tech companies should no longer be reimbursed for legal process.
Remember that there are lawyers involved with Twitter Files whose role has not been disclosed. Are we sure Turley is not involved personally?
Turley is now complaining that the FBI is enforcing laws designed to protect the right to vote.
Liz Cheney's replacement ALSO doesn't want private companies to be paid for legal process.
Mike Johnson is speaking in favor of parents attacking school board members now.
BREAKING: @danielsgoldman catches Jim Jordan doing what he accused Adam Schiff of.
Linda Sanchez has a good purple hair thing going on.
Gets Elliott Williams to say that witnesses should have some actual knowledge of the things they complain about.
What's up with Matt Gaetz's nose?
Now the Deep State Committee is quoting Project Veritas, thanks to Matt Gaetz.
Meanwhile Raiklin loves this.
Jordan says that Gaetz' time expired, Gaetz is ignoring him, and now asking follow-up questions.
Thomas Baker claims there was unmasking abuse. Which is nutty bc a Trump US Attorney reviewed it, said it didn't happen.
Oh. Silly me. Jordan is just going to let Gaetz go on.
DWS quotes Jordan saying that Benghazi worked to attack Hillary.
DWS gets Turley to confess he has no unique or special knowledge of Twitter.
Now Issa is trying to resuscitate Turley after he confessed to having no knowledge.
Chris Stewart wants to call Jim Comey which is pretty cool bc we can ask about how he weaponized the FBI against Hillary Clinton.
Stewart said there was zero evidence against Carter Page, which is nutty bc the DOJ IG report he claims to be basing this on laid out a bunch of evidence.
Now Jordan’s fbi witness is trying to avoid saying that Jan6 was an act of terrorism.
Dan Bishop must think that Donald Trumps’s efforts to censor Twitter must be the worst in history bc that’s what the evidence shows.
Dan Bishop now taking a pro-Klan stance, opposing the protection of voting rights.
Dan Bishop is now arguing that the NSA shouldn’t have the total Twitter feed but the Saudis should. Why does Dan Bishop like Saudi Arabia more than the US?
For those asking who them woman sitting behind Williams, that’s Nicole Reddit, spouse of Guy Reffiitt, whose son was threatened by dad.
Sorry Nicole Reffitt.
Kelly Armstrong claims that DOJ was just bigfooting local prosecutions of people who assault school board members.
He’s the first Republican to make good, bipartisan points, abt third party data.
Turley revealing #MattyDickPics duped him into opposing the protection of voting rights.
Someone should have asked Turley abt CRT censorship.
Jordan now asking why the FBI would protect the right to vote.

Elon would like to remind you that Trump has installed HIS OWN BUREAUCRATS to access your $$, and thus far, his high school grads have fucked up at least 5 times.
Things @elonmusk's hand-selected bureaucrats have fucked up in 2 weeks on the job:
Forced out FAA head days b4 fatal accident
Screwed up Medicaid portal
Set up a way to spam entire agencies
Did shoddy research that led @karolineleavitt to lie abt Gaza
Offered unfunded buyouts
@elonmusk @karolineleavitt Why is Trump letting the richest man in the world fuck up YOUR OWN access to services the government owes you?
Barry Loudermilk, page 18: Liz Cheney had too much authority.
@RepLoudermilk, page 12: @Liz_Cheney didn't have enough authority.
Loudermilk relied on Trump's Truth Social posts, rather than sworn testimony. I guess @RepLoudermilk is so stupid he believes everything Trump says on Truth Social?
A big part of @RepLoudermilk's attack on Cheney amounts to insinuation that @realJodyHunt acted unethically, which seems like something he might want to avoid.
Note that, contrary to common myths about the investigation into Trump, this subpoena PRECEDED Cassidy Hutchison's public testimony (and even Greg Jacob's, by a day).
The precedents were all set before Jack Smith was appointed.
Here's an interesting, almost entirely argument that bears on the immunity case. Trump was invoking Executive Privilege but (as Howell laid out) he was having such convos w/people outside of Exec, like Rudy.
Howell ordered second batch of witnesses to testify on November 19. Trump asked for a stay on December 7. In the interim, witnesses testified. That almost certainly means they are 2 Pats & likely Eric Herschmann (which is consistent w/public timeline).
Liz Cheney, Maria Shriver, and Kamala Harris sitting on a stage talking about bipartisanship.
One dynamic of this I've been tracking is this: Harris SHOULD NOT be talking nitty gritty abt Jan6 bc of the prosecution. Well, Cheney is the expert. And she speaks it well.
As she did, guy in back was nodding over and over.
Cheney: In this election, we need to elect the responsible adult.
We learned last week (from the NYT, among others!) that Trump is bypassing transition laws, meaning he--and his sons, the Saudi business partners and transition team members--could just get payments from the Saudis all the way until inauguration.
