Jan. 6 committee spoke to Bill Barr about plan to seize voting machines

[L. Coyote]

Source: The Hill

Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), the chairman of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, on Sunday said the panel has spoken to former U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr regarding a draft of an executive order by the Trump administration that would have deployed the National Guard to seize voting machines.

Last week, Politico published a draft of the order that would have directed national defense forces to seize voting machines. The order was never issued and the Jan. 6 committee had declined to comment on the documents at the time.

Appearing on CBS's "Face the Nation," Thompson was asked by host Margaret Brennan if the panel intended on speaking with Barr regarding the drafted order.

"Well, yes we do. To be honest with you, we've had conversations with the former attorney general already," said Thompson.

5. Nice collection of tweets, thank you

[Captain Zero]

8. Wasn't there a letter from ex military officers?

Addressed to current military and talking about the duties they had in NOT EXECUTING ILLEGAL ORDERS? When did that come out in relation to Barr's resignation , the draft of the order, and when was the order finally shelved?? What were the discussions between Flynn and Trump on this? Between Flynn and HIS BROTHER? BETWEEN ANYONE AND THAT ACTING DEFENSE SECRETARY ?

Who wanted to do it? Who said no? Who said yes. ?

12. Are you thinking of this?

Defense secretaries' letter warning Trump was signed by all in only 2 days

January 5, 2021

A successful campaign to have all 10 living former U.S. secretaries of defense sign a letter warning President Donald Trump not to involve the military in his grievances over the election results took place between New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, said former ambassador and defense official Eric Edelman.

13. All previous Secretaries of Defense, Jan. 3 letter?

“Efforts to involve the US armed forces in resolving election disputes would take us into dangerous, unlawful and unconstitutional territory.”

16. Thank you. The nation and it's media need constant reminding...Twitter is ok for that,

collecting historical evidence of seditious conspiracy, of which the sedition day committee has all the gritty details.

2. Barr announced his resignation on Dec. 14

which was two days before the Dec. 16 draft Executive Order to have National Guard seize voting machines. Perhaps the traitors tried to get him involved in planning the seizure scheme in the days ahead of Dec. 16 but he balked and pulled his ripcord knowing it was "batshit" "bananas" "crazy" "absolute banana republic" "insane"...

7. I think Barr had a duty to WARN

About all the things going on ...

Instead he left his office saying nothing PUBLICLY at all about these PLANS FOR SEDITION.

[vanlassie]

10. EXACTLY. Does he call himself a patriot? WTF.

[twodogsbarking]

4. Trump will never be jailed but those that did his work may.

Barr knows this.

[L. Coyote]

6. #FailedCoupGuy will never get out of jail.

He may get out of one jail to begin his term in another jail.

Order your Failed Coup Guy red baseball caps now, real collector item perfect for your MAGA friends.

9. Barr has a book coming out soon.

Looks like this is part of a rehabilitation program for him.

11. Remember this old song?

The "I WAS NOT A NAZI POLKA"?

14. Excuse me for being a bit put out with George Conway.

Would one describe the holocaust as ""batshit" "bananas" "crazy" "absolute banana republic" "insane" "crazy all around" "imaginary universe" "mental disability" "completely bananas""? You know, a foolish escapade of youthful overexuberance gone awry, or would one call it for what it was, a stain on the very concept of civilization so heinous that an eternity of trials and executions would only barely prove the prevalence of justice.

People will excuse insanity and foolishness and even see their own imperfect selves in those so adjudged. But these Trump guys, in an effort to put their own imprimatur on the ways of men on the Earth saw an unlawful path and took it, almost succeeding in permanently disrupting our democracy which, you'll recall, with very election season, recreates the US into the more perfect union its citizens wish it to be.

Oh, I guess I understand his POV, though. It's like "okay, she's a little crazy but she's not a criminal, okay. She was just looking into the income potential, you know, as one does. She's not like that at home, after all."

Sorry George, any way you want to put it, she still needs to do time for the lies she told, purposefully hiding Trumps awful intentions. You guys don't rule from Olympus, you just act like you do.

15. My takeaway...he mass media is finally caving, a black D Congressman from Miss. is selected

by the Democratic Party and accepted by Face The Nation mass media gatekeepers selectors in the ivory towers of mass mind control to deliver the latest shocker.

Up to now the daily shockers of seditious conspiracy evidence piling up have not disturbed the mass media much.

17. I have one question,

was Barr under oath?

[L. Coyote]

18. It does not matter if you are under oath or not.

18 U.S. Code § 1001 - Statements or entries generally

(a) Except as otherwise provided in this section, whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of the executive, legislative, or judicial branch of the Government of the United States, knowingly and willfully—
(1) falsifies, conceals, or covers up by any trick, scheme, or device a material fact;
(2) makes any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or representation; or
(3) makes or uses any false writing or document knowing the same to contain any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or entry;
shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 5 years or, if the offense involves international or domestic terrorism (as defined in section 2331), imprisoned not more than 8 years, or both.

19. Rts TY! Nice Compilation

of Tweets!

[L. Coyote]

20. Why doesn't the Flynn tweet say "convicted felon" instead of General?

Time for the media to quit giving these criminals a free pass on that kind of crap.

[Cha]

22. The media Overlords say..

brush that part of "Convicted Felon" history aside.

Push it down the Rabbit Hole.. We can't be accurate .. that Goes Against our Enemy of the State Grain.

23. Jonathon Karl describes interview Bill Barr- I was so amazed by what I heard from Bill Barr

24. That is quite the video clip. #FailedCoupGuy is a fully cooked goose already.

They all are, and all the Republican members of Congress who were part of the coup plot, by their votes on Jan. 6 & Jan. 7, need to be barred from running for office ever again. They knew tyheir votes were disingenuous, their actions were criminal.
