    Th fact that the pence teams were calling their family and saying goodbye is absolutely ludacris. And trump never calling pence to see if he was okay.

    pence is such an idiot because he is still loyal to trump lol

    Both counts...and now Clark is next. Hopefully they max the sentences to make these 5th pleaders shake in their shorts.

    The max sentence is $1000 fine and up to 12 months in jail per count. Will be interesting to see what happens next to him.

    Pro Trump protesters picketed the hearing and tainted injured police officer Fanone. Because they love law and order ... when it means keeping Black people in line.

    Now the right is saying Bannon's conviction is a win for MAGA because it proves the court is corrupt.

    They never bring anything to refute any argument towards them (Trump, Bannon, etc) just say "This bad. They good."

    Bannon didnt adhere to a subpoena. "COURT IS CORRUPT". Which is funny, because the only way the court is corrupt is if they DONT prosecute those who dont adhere to a subpoena.

    I dont understand how people got so brainwashed to just lose the ability to comprehend the most basic of things. Its baffling.

    Is the court pressing charges on everybody who has failed to appear or failed to cooperate? Seems like there has been a lot of that going on the last few years.

    That's the only argument I can see them making.

    "Why Bannon, but not (insert dem)?"

    Don't know of any, but it just seems like failing to show up when requested has been a thing for a few years. That's the only way I could see this argument having any merit.

    So I'm asking if there are any Dems they could point a finger at. I expect probably not, but I don't know.

    Not as far as I know. Hillary Clinton spent 13 hours answering questions from Benghazi committee even though Kevin McCarthy openly admitted the purpose was to bring down her poll numbers.

    Funny how she now refuses to answer questions about January 6th.

    WHAT IS SHE HIDING?!?

    She should have sent the national guard or solidified security at the capitol. It's all her fault.

    But what I said would still hold true. The only way the court is corrupt is because they don't do it to everyone. So is the court corrupt because of that or because it's "only Bannon"... You can't have it both ways. And you damn well know that if it favors the viewpoint of common sense, they'd be against it. So they lose no matter what ;)

    For sure. Not arguing against you, just curious if they can argue inconsistencies...

    Also anyone find it really interesting that Trump has never said what he was doing during those 187 minutes? Ever. If he wanted to speak about it and refute it (though he has no benefit of the doubt with anyone not indoctrinated into his cult) he could. But that time came and passed. For each hearing. And he's only disparaged the witnesses, said it's a witch hunt and provided nothing to refute it.

    It's sad people still believe him. There's literally zero proof of anything to the contrary to what's been presented.
