Watch LIVE: Day 8 of the Public Hearings of the January 6th House Select Committee

by Nomad


A “minute-by-minute” account of Donald Trump’s actions throughout the melee at the Capitol- that's the focus of Thursday's prime-time hearing of the January 6 House committee. Sources tell us:
Investigators will press their case that Trump’s refusal to intervene more quickly is further evidence that the former president was squarely on the side of the protestors, even as their demonstration against Trump’s defeat escalated into a violent mob attack on Congress — one that threatened the lives of lawmakers and his own vice president.

Just Because It's Not Happening Here..

by Nomad

Even though this video is eight years old, this PSA, produced for Save the Children Fund, is still impactful.. and timely, especially given the Russian invasion of Ukraine. This video shows how a girl's life is completely transformed in one year.
 
Originally it was entitled "If London were Syria." But I found it online with the new (and probably more universal) title "Just Because It's Not Happening Here, It Doesn't Mean It Isn't Happening."

January 6 2021 riots

In an expected change to the schedule, the January 6 Select Committee will hold a last-minute public hearing Tuesday to present new evidence and hear witness testimony. Before Monday, the panel had scheduled the next hearing for mid-July. Interestingly, unlike previous hearings, the witnesses who were to be testifying were not been announced.
