This is a working post and thread dedicated to the introductory material of the final report prepared by the House January 6 Committee.

Elmo might have the right to suspend journalists, but the U.S. should not be held hostage by a pasty excessively-monied git with an unmanaged ego.

Elmo has had a bug up his ass for at least a couple days; he's decided to act out and purge accounts of those reporting on him. So much for free speech absolutism.

The Proud Boys have raised at least five witnesses who they would like to call in their defense but who would invoke the Fifth.

After 98 days, DOJ can finally use the unclassified documents seized with a lawful warrant in the investigation of Donald Trump's stolen documents. 

The State takes on some functions of the Church. Not everyone loves this.

Under some claims the government made in a sealed hearing, "there are hundreds of thousands of people unwittingly violating the Espionage Act by sharing the New York Times report about the WikiLeaks leak." I'm intervening to try to make those claims public.

Jeremy Brown wants to argue he had a good reason to bring classified information and store it in his RV. Probably, that argument will work no better for him than it has any number of Espionage Act defendants -- or for that other disgruntled Floridian who took classified information home from work.

A Trump-friendly WaPo story reveals that an outside firm conducted additional searches for stolen classified documents on at least Bedminster and Trump Tower, and claims that some kind of attestation that no more documents were found (though that may apply only to Bedminster). CNN, however, reveals four properties were searched and states that no attestation was made.

To mock myself and others for overreading, I proclaim that comparing subpoenas from the fake elector investigation from before and after the appointment of Jack Smith "proves" that he taught DOJ how to alphabetize.
