New: Ginni Thomas responds to Jan. 6 Committee and asserts she wants to cooperate. "I look forward to talking to them," Thomas just told @ShelbyTalcott https://t.co/3az8IaFfP4 — PolitiTweet.org

There is no substantive reason to spend too much energy and rigor to "debunking" Trump's idea that an incumbent's coup/felony could be legal. Felonies are not legal. Coups are not allowed in a democracy. Bye. etc. — PolitiTweet.org

Ari Melber @AriMelber

so no shade but this is the problem with (many) lawyers -- an extremely obvious point gets parsed and over-analyzed. The White House cannot overrule elections when it loses. That's a crime and a coup. If it could, America would be a dictatorship. — PolitiTweet.org

Luttig testimony is substantively vital to have in the record. Now, out of the 1,000 witnesses, should he be one of the handful of live ones? That's a presentation question; like who you see as a 'star witness' at trial, which can be different from who is a necessary witness. — PolitiTweet.org

What Judge Lutting offers in credentials, he lacks in delivery. — PolitiTweet.org

Hearing 1: Trump summoned the mob and supported their illegal attack (conspiracy) Hearing 2: Trump knew he lost (criminal mindset) Hearing 3: He knew his Jan. 6 plan was illegal and attempted it anyway (criminal act) — PolitiTweet.org

Other plots aimed to “help” or “launder” that effort through other parts of government — a “sweep” by members of Congress, a challenge by state representatives — but the key evidence turns on the incumbent’s attempted abuse of power. — PolitiTweet.org

Ari Melber @AriMelber

Trump ordered Pence to abuse the power of the incumbent government to steal an election. Pence refused it as an illegal order. That’s central to the case for an attempted coup. — PolitiTweet.org

Ari Melber @AriMelber

A Trump lawyer flatly saying Supreme Court justices could be “more open to hearing a case if they fear chaos” offers a “link” to the “mob scene that materialized at the Capitol weeks later.” https://t.co/RPYIXa9tWk — PolitiTweet.org

Capitol tours are primarily in the Capitol. Not in the adjoining buildings. Not in hallways where staff work. Not in staircases far from the Rotunda. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump’s original announcement of a “wild” Jan 6 protest began by invoking the work of Peter Navarro, the WH aide pushing the sweep plan, now indicted for his refusal to testify. https://t.co/UmB94urlTH — PolitiTweet.org

Ari Melber @AriMelber

Yet the three main defiant witnesses have something else in common: They each backed efforts to overthrow the election and certification on Jan. 6. Meadows pushed Pence Navarro pushed “sweep”/coup Bannon promoted Jan 6 rally chaos. — PolitiTweet.org

Ari Melber @AriMelber

Seeing the extensive testimony, under oath, of Trump’s most important appointees — attorney general, campaign manager, top lawyers, daughter — really reinforces the thin case of those few aides who refused to testify: Meadows Bannon Navarro — PolitiTweet.org
