174/ Cheney says that there is sufficient evidence to issue criminal referrals to DOJ, but that before this occurs—if it occurs—Trump must be subpoenaed. Not just because of the evidence the HJ6C has, but because many witnesses pleaded the Fifth to hide *what Trump said to them*. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
173/ BREAKING NEWS: REPUBLICAN congresswoman Liz Cheney has just moved to subpoena REPUBLICAN private citizen Donald Trump before the U.S. House of Representatives. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
172/ Thompson says it is Congress' "obligation" to seek Trump's testimony, and there is *precedent* for Congress seeking presidential testimony. He acknowledges that a subpoena for a former president is nevertheless a "serious" step. But he says that it is nevertheless necessary. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
171/ Now Rep. Thompson, the Committee chair, is saying that the Committee *must* hear directly from Trump in order to conduct a comprehensive investigation. Thompson says that it is *also* the case that Trump must appear to testify to be held "accountable to the American people." — PolitiTweet.org

Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
170/ Raskin ends his presentation by reminding America that under the laws of the United States a man who acted as Donald Trump did on January 6 is supposed to be banned from ever holding federal office again. This is clearly now building toward a vote to subpoena Donald Trump. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
169/ Rep. Raskin is underscoring, via testimony by Sarah Matthews and Pat Cipollone, that Trump could have at any time given a statement to stop the violence. Instead, even after he told people to go home—finally—he excused their conduct and blamed Democrats for causing it. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
168/ We're now seeing stunning video of insurrectionists in real time agreeing to leave the Capitol *exclusively* because Trump finally released a video asking them to do so. It is clear that had Trump issued such a message earlier, the attack would have ended hours earlier. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
167/ We're now hearing testimony from Trump administration officials who resigned office on or immediately after January 6 due to Trump's actions. One such official is Elaine Chao—Mitch McConnell's wife—who Trump has recently made racist social media posts about on Truth Social. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
166/ We're now hearing internal communications between insurrectionists as they attacked the Capitol, as well as reactions of insurrectionists on the ground as they heard Trump's inciting tweets attempting to get Pence killed and further encourage violent anger against Congress. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
165/ Rep. Raskin now reveals Secret Service texts confirming that the USSS took Trump's texts as calling for Pence's execution and making his assassination *considerably* more likely. In real time, Trump's own bodyguards *knew* that he was attempting to incite political violence. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
164/ Rep. Raskin now focuses on (a) Trump telling Kevin McCarthy (falsely) that the attackers were "antifa," then immediately admitting they weren't but condoning their (his supporters' actions), and (b) McCarthy thereafter lying about what Trump said to him to protect the POTUS. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
163/ This video alone should lead to a full investigation of whether the Pentagon response on January 6 was part of a criminal conspiracy. I wrote a 250-page, exhaustively sourced book on this subject. It is here: https://t.co/AaPGLyhgPV — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
162/ So it's not just that this video is inspiring because it lets us see leaders of both parties acting honorably to combat a siege of the U.S. Capitol. It's shocking because it helps explain precisely *why* the ever-dishonorable Trump had a *specific* reason to act differently. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
161/ With a *several day* delay, Trump's "fake elector plot" could have worked—and PROOF has published a *mountain* of fully sourced evidence confirming that this is exactly what Trump and his legal team were planning in the days *before* January 6. A several day delay = victory. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
160/ Everyone must watch this video. To put a finer point on it, it's now clear that the reason Trump did nothing on January 6 is because—as PROOF OF COUP (2022) detailed—he had a good chance of getting inaction by the Pentagon to lead to a several-day delay of the joint session. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
159/ From a criminal investigation standpoint, it is stunning that congressional leadership was originally told that the joint session would be delayed *days*—which is exactly what Trump wanted. We did not know until today how close Trump was to getting what he wanted and needed. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
158/ This lengthy video showed GOP and Republican leaders of the House and Senate—Pelosi, Schumer, Hoyer, McConnell, Thune, Scalise—working honorably and diligently and urgently and intelligently to contact DoD, DOJ, the VP, and VA/MD governors seeking aid as Trump did *nothing*. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
157/ Give me a moment to watch and detail this. It is truly historic. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
156/ We are now going to see the historic video of congressional leaders I spoke of earlier. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
155/ I wonder how many Americans fully appreciate *how many phone calls* Trump's Oath of Office required him to be making on January 6th. He was supposed to be *helping to coordinate* the federal response to the coup attempt. Instead, he further incited it as he watched it on TV. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
154/ We're now getting evidence of the Trump allies who begged Trump to do something to stop the violence. Meadows told an aide, however, "He [Trump] doesn't want anything done [to stop the violence]." Every witness agrees Trump watched the violence on TV and did *nothing* else. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
153/ I want to underscore something here that no one ever seems to say: there is absolutely no *exculpatory* evidence involving Donald Trump and January 6. All the evidence we have—and apparently all the evidence that exists—is harrowingly *incriminating*. Literally *all of it*. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
152/ This timeline is so damning. Trump knew there was violence at the Capitol; he was being advised by trusted advisers, even his own family members, that he needed to do something to stop it; and instead of this Trump sent out tweets designed to incite the crowd—which they did. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
151/ Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) is now using Secret Service texts to establish a timeline of what Trump knew—and when—after he completed his speech at the Ellipse. It's clear that Trump knew in real time an attack was happening but *nevertheless* spurred on the violence on Twitter. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
150/ Even after Trump returned to the White House on January 6, Secret Service texts reveal that Trump was focused on taking an "OTR" trip to the Capitol. This planned trip wasn't scuttled until *well after* the violent attack on the Capitol had begun—and was being televised. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
149/ Now we are hearing depo video from Kayleigh McEnany testifying that she heard Donald Trump say he either wanted to walk with the armed mob to the Capitol on January 6 or else take "the Beast" there—a heavily armored federal vehicle intended for the exclusive use of a POTUS. — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
148/ BREAKING NEWS (🚨): House January 6 Committee Will Recall Witnesses to Testify Further About Trump's Violent Attempt to Ensure He Could Lead An Armed Mob to the Capitol on January 6; Committee Has Evidence of Criminal Witness Tampering Involving Witnesses on This Key Issue — PolitiTweet.org
Seth Abramson @SethAbramson
147/ I continue to believe that Trump demanding to personally lead a mob he knew was armed against the Capitol is the most stunning evidence in the entire January 6 timeline. — PolitiTweet.org
