Saying there must be trials isn't just an emotive aspiration.

Congress can:
- Create a new court (complying w/ 6A jury vicinage)
- Give it jurisdiction over defined category of crimes
- Also create dedicated prosecutors for the same
- Strip SCOTUS of appellate jurisdiction

It can be done.

Special Counsel Jack Smith’s testified before the House Judiciary Committee two weeks ago. His request to testify publicly was denied by Chair Jim Jordan, who then released the transcript on New Year’s Eve. READ the thread below.Share it.

What Parler Saw During the Attack on the Capitol ProPublica sifted through thousands of videos taken by Parler users to create an immersive, first-person view of the Capitol riot as experienced by those who were there.

Five years ago tomorrow, thousands of the president's supporters stormed the Capitol.

Trump has since dubbed Jan. 6 a "day of love."

Scroll through @propublica.org's massive trove of parler videos -- organized by time and location -- from that day and judge for yourself:

Two things were happening as Trump decided to launch his imperial strike on Venezuela. One was the DOJ filing w/the court explanations for their redactions in the Epstein files they released. The other was Jim Jordan’s release of the transcript of Jack Smith’s testimony.

So I read the transcript.
