"These massive jumps in income and assets have not been explained or documented...Whether that massive jump in income [and assets] is accurate has yet to be determined, but can be cause for further investigation. Lying on official documents can bring legal scrutiny..." — PolitiTweet.org

"Santos ran a failed campaign in 2020, during which he filed a financial disclosure declaring virtually no assets and a salary of $55,000. In his 2022 campaign, his disclosure claimed a $750,000 salary and several million in assets..." https://t.co/vPDciwg0cd — PolitiTweet.org

"The committee’s dogged investigation has stripped Trump’s defenses and revealed the magnitude of his assault on democracy. But it would be naive to assume the committee has extinguished, or even fully mapped, a threat that has now spread far beyond him." https://t.co/8fnru6Ank8 — PolitiTweet.org

207 years ago today: Jane Austen's 'Emma' published. “Seldom, very seldom, does complete truth belong to any human disclosure; seldom can it happen that something is not a little disguised or a little mistaken.” — PolitiTweet.org

A happy Festivus to all who observe. By the way, how much healthier an airing of grievances is Festivus than MAGA? https://t.co/JRZiUiWPbG — PolitiTweet.org

Interesting recommendations here, along with explanations of why they're highly recommended: A novel--Lion Feuchtwanger's 'The Oppermanns'. A movie--'Dev Bhoomi' (Land of the Gods). And a TV series--'Andor'. https://t.co/Ers31aK1KE — PolitiTweet.org

6. In any case, all honor to the Select Committee, and to all involved--members, staff, witnesses, and others. They have made an important contribution to the history of the American republic. They should be proud of what they accomplished. And we should be proud of them. FIN — PolitiTweet.org

5. I suspect this may understate Tom Joscelyn's role in making a report of many hands as strong and compelling a document as it is. "After months of dysfunction and infighting, Thomas Joscelyn...ended up submitting drafts that would constitute significant portions of the report." — PolitiTweet.org

4. Speaker Pelosi was also crucial. (If anything, I suspect the piece understates how key her behind-the-scenes role was in keeping members focused and on task.) "Throughout the committee’s 18-month life span, the speaker’s role in its affairs was both opaque and unmistakable." — PolitiTweet.org

3. "Kinzinger went even further. 'I think, frankly, when this is all done, she’s going to be the whole reason this was successful. I’ve been frustrated with her on a number of things. But with all her faults, this would’ve been a complete failure, I think, without her.'” — PolitiTweet.org

"What was impossible to ignore, in the end, was Cheney’s contribution to a committee that was expected to flounder...It was in her role backstage, the source of most of the internal criticism against her, where Cheney’s singular standing was especially felt." — PolitiTweet.org

1. Cheney was key. "It was also evident to Goldston that Cheney, more than anyone else on the committee, seemed to appreciate the importance of skillfully produced hearings—because in her mind, failure was simply not an option..." — PolitiTweet.org

This very well reported piece is worth reading. Here's a short thread with just a few comments based on my own (much less extensive) glimpses over the past year and a half into some key aspects of how the Committee did what it did. https://t.co/lCytpEZeEX — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin McCarthy voted to reject the electors and to acquit Trump, tried to sabotage the proposed bipartisan Commission and then the House Select Committee, and has embraced fervent January 6th defenders. This man should not hold the Constitutional office of Speaker of the House. https://t.co/jGneGNmWJX — PolitiTweet.org

“'The president bears responsibility for Wednesday's attack on Congress by mob rioters,' McCarthy said on the House floor. 'He should have immediately denounced the mob when he saw what was unfolding.'" https://t.co/RN0ABmhlgm https://t.co/phXF4bmqmc — PolitiTweet.org

Zelensky embodied the Ukrainian people’s will to freedom on the floor of the US Congress. And the degradation of Russian military power via US aid to Ukraine is a bargain. Eric Edelman and I discuss. https://t.co/bAZIkJXeMA — PolitiTweet.org
Bill Kristol @BillKristol
The fight against Putin and the fight against Trump are cousins, so how poetic is it that Zelensky and the January 6 report show up on nearly the same day? @JVLast and I discuss. https://t.co/6H67tkScWY — PolitiTweet.org
Bill Kristol @BillKristol
Going through the report, reading some analyses, I'm reminded of many aspects of Trump's plot against America. But the core image I can't get out of my mind is Trump sitting in the White House on January 6, watching the assault on TV, and relishing the wreckage he has unleashed. — PolitiTweet.org
Bill Kristol @BillKristol
A key point here: "The Report presents extraordinary evidence and analysis of a preplanned operation by the Proud Boys that appears to have worked hand-in-hand with the closely held plan that Trump would direct the crowd to march on the Capitol." https://t.co/tL2y5RiRRa — PolitiTweet.org

A good precis. One of many points: "The real shocker here is the lack of official documentation from inside the WH during [the afternoon of Jan. 6]. No entries in the presidential diary, no call records. Everything that should be there is missing...Why?" https://t.co/bwhArjqZf0 — PolitiTweet.org

I found the account in Chapter 8 of the attack on the Capitol enlightening and gripping. But I will also confess that I found it sickening. It was a horrible day--made more horrible later by the refusal of so many to come to grips with the truth about it. https://t.co/uugECjvr1t — PolitiTweet.org

From the Foreword by the Vice Chair: "Today, I am perhaps most disappointed in many of my fellow conservatives who know better...but concluded that it was easier to appease Donald Trump, or keep their heads down. I had hoped for more from them." https://t.co/uugECjdQ9V — PolitiTweet.org
Bill Kristol @BillKristol
I've so far skimmed only Ch. 6 of the Committee report. A truly damning account of Trump's knowledge and relationship to the mob he'd summoned to D.C., and of the fact he knew what he was doing when he incited the mob to march on the Capitol and "fight." https://t.co/uugECjvr1t — PolitiTweet.org
