Tom Barrack pleaded not guilty in a court hearing yesterday, despite the overwhelming evidence against him. Barrack’s financial entanglements with the Trump family are extensive, including deep financial ties with Kushner, especially in the middle east.

Micheael Cohen last night said again that he thinks Kushner has quietly turned witness to protect himself, saying that unless Kushner is a cooperating witness (and he thinks he is), Kushner is in trouble now that Barrack and Weisselberg are indicted.

Gaetz and Greenes attempt to take attention away from the insurection investigation was abandoned because of protestors.

They tried to hold a news conference outside the DOJ to protest the treatment of those arrested over the insurrection attempts but were drown out by whistles, shouts of pedophile, traitors etc

https://thehill.com/homenews/house/565069-proteste...

And there really wasn't many protestors, yet Greene and Gaetz left rapidly

Edit: 15 time Gaetz was asked - are you a pedophile. Obviously the way to get him to leave.

Another Capitol attack arrest, this time the man known as Face Paint Blowhard, Samuel Lazar from Lancaster County with ties to GOP lawmaker Doug Mastriano. Mastriano’s campaign paid for busses to take trump supporters to Washington and Mastriano later denied knowing who Lazar was, despite many photos of the two together at many events

GOP state Sen. Doug Mastriano was of course on the capitolsteps despite claiming he left before it turned violent - lordy there are tapes.

Samuel Lazar posted and boasted all over his social media how he maced police, attacked them with a trump sign and there is of course videos of him doing this

I think if the investigation is looking for subpoena's then more should be investigated on those accused of giving tours just before the insurrection attempt.

Greene was one of those accused. Here she is on the night of 5th Jan in front of the Capitol saying get ready to fight for America tomorrow, trump was re-elected and that the Electoral College vote was stolen.

Officer Fanone was on CNN and asked about Carlsons and Fox News attacks against cops said that when they resorted to theatrical tactics he knew they had no facts to support their argument.

Video here: https://twitter.com/i/status/1420362073830199302

he also said they were outnumbered and fighting for their lives, with trump supporters repeating what trump said, directed by trump, and continues with how trump repeatedly downplays it, pushes the Big Lie, just tourists...

He says trump has to answer to questions

Ron Johnson still lying, saying no weapons were seized on capitol grounds, and claiming CNN aren't telling the truth...
https://twitter.com/SenRonJohnson/status/142021065...

he also knows that answer was qualified that she couldn't speak for metro or capitol police
https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/...

when we know 6 were recovered, including Christopher Alberts, who was concealed carrying a black Taurus G2C 9mm pistol
https://www.justice.gov/opa/press-release/file/135...

That there were weapons in hotels ready to be brought, that weapons and molotov cocktails were found in a truck just blocks away... and that when Johnson says no weapons, we know from the many charges that they went armed with stun guns, pepper spray, baseball bats and flagpoles wielded as clubs, as well as captured riot shield being used as weapons.

Republicans spent yesterday lying in response to the insurrection investigation starting.

Indiana Rep. Jim Banks claimed Pelosi blocked the National guard from protecting the Capitol
Kevin McCarthy on Fox News Kevin McCarthy said that Pelosi chose not to have the National Guard at the Capitol that day

Both are liars and these are lies. AP have a fact check here
https://apnews.com/article/fact-checking-235651652...

In fact when trump supporters stormed the Capitol looking to kill Pence and Pelosi, both Pelosi and Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer asked the Army to immediately deploy the National Guard and we know that that decision was fudged and delayed for over 4 hours by people including Mike Flynns brother...

The House now have to be masked. Lauren Boebert threw a mask back at a floor staffer when she was offered one while trying to walk onto the floor maskless. Members can now be fined in the House when maskless

She didn't deny it - called it a face muzzle...
https://twitter.com/RepBoebert/status/142040831497...

Where the GOP has decended to...

Maybe she's cranky because the insurrection investigation is going to be looking into those guided tours....

The insurrection investigation really needs to subpoena trump and get him to testify. He won't be able to keep his mouth shut.

Trump phoned his acting attorney general Rosen nearly every day at the end of last year, trying to pressurise him into taking action against what he claimed was voter fraud or alleged improper vote counts. One of Rosens aides Richard Donoghue took notes.

The DOJ have recently told team trump members they can't hide behind executive privilege. Apparently Mark Meadows was also frequently calling to do the same. Witnesses have said trump was obsessed with blaming fraud for him losing.

McConnells hold breaking? The Senate last night voted 67-32 to move forward on the bipartisan infrastructure package with 17 republicans voting for it.

The WH says it's the largest federal investment in public transit ever, in passenger rail since Amtrak, the largest dedicated bridge investment since the interstate highway system and the largest investment in clean drinking water ever


How many infrastructure weeks did trump have with nothing achieved, because they usually descended into scandal of something else he said or did...or he was too busy golfing. What ever happened to that $2tn infrastructure plan, lost down the back of the sofa with his health plan?

trump of course is ranting that the GOP should never have voted to pass the plan.

Talking of people who can't keep their mouth shut. Mo Brooks yesterday said he was wearing body armour when he made his Capitol speech, so Brooks knew he was attending a violent scenario when he chose to address the insurrectionists, knowing that there was violence planned and his speech would further inflame the crowd.

he's just blown any chance of claiming he didn't know the crowd would be violent...

https://edition.cnn.com/videos/politics/2021/07/29...


Edit: Video here of questions being asked of who told him of the 'risks' so that he wore body armour. Was Brooks also meeting with the Three Percenters or the Proud Boys, not just Stone? We know trumps WH staff were behind the rally and protest organised for 6 Jan.



remember how trump staffers all tried to deny they had any involvement afterwards... How trump and others had been bigging up the protest for weeks...
https://www.businessinsider.com/former-trump-campa...

We know from recently released text messages they knew and hoped it would get violent, they would storm the capitol to do trumps bidding. That why the Oath Keepers stack went in, why the Proud Boys were there with Stone as organiser...

No Wonder Ivanka and Jared Kushner have been keeping low.

The Daily Beast is reporting that investigators in the trump org case are investigating the inauguration funds that Don jnr and Ivanka paid to trump properties are a large markup Tom Barrack and Allen Weisselberg were also deeply involved in that inauguration fundraising and spending. Not good news for the siblings if either talk.
https://www.thedailybeast.com/dc-attorney-general-...

At the same time, Kushner has fed Reuters the story he's leaving politics and is starting an investment fund.
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/jared-kushner-lea...

He left politics the moment trump wasn't Potus, why put this story out now. Has he as Cohen thinks, flipped and turned witness to save himself?

Laura Ingram escalated her attempt to pass the buck from trump last night by blaming Capitol and DC Metro police saying that they have no one to blame but themselves.
https://www.rawstory.com/laura-ingraham-blames-cap...


This was after Officer Fanone played out a death threat from a trumpette in full for Don Lemon on CNN the night before night.
https://www.thedailybeast.com/capitol-riot-officer...

Remember, Officer Fanone lis the police officer that was tasered repeatedly at the base of his skull, said he was fighting hand-to-hand combat such as he had never experienced in his 20 years as an officer and, repeatedly hit with metal objects. He suffered a heart attack, a concussion, and a traumatic brain injury. Someone yelled to get his gun and kill him with it.

Pure filth. Presumably once he's finished shopping everyone around him he will then employ the Sidney Defence, ie how could anybody possibly believe anything I say, before returning to the comforting folds of his investment fund. I imagine there are still plenty of rich idiots around who will put money into that.
