Members phkrause Posted October 16, 2022 Author Members Share Posted October 16, 2022 JAN. 6 COMMITTEE TAKEAWAYS Subpoena for Trump, warnings for democracy Mary Clare Jalonick and Eric Tucker ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON – The House Jan. 6 committee took the extraordinary action of subpoenaing former President Donald Trump on Thursday as it issued a warning in its final public hearing before the midterm election: The future of the nation's democracy is at stake. The panel's October hearing, just weeks ahead of the midterm election, focused on Trump's state of mind on Jan. 6, 2021, as he egged on his See JAN. 6, Page 6A Continued from Page 1A supporters with false claims of election fraud, pushed to accompany them to the Capitol while lawmakers were counting the votes, and then stood by for hours as the mob violently breached the building. The committee is set to shut down at the beginning of next year, and was making its final public arguments ahead of a report expected in December. “We are obligated to seek answers directly from the man who set this all in motion,” said Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, the panel's vice chairwoman and one of two Republicans on the nine-member committee. “And every American is entitled to those answers. So we can act now to protect our republic.” Subpoena for Trump, but not Pence The subpoena for Trump is a major escalation in the probe. After signaling for months that they may leave the former president alone, the unanimous 9-0 vote “for relevant documents and testimony, under oath” was definitive. The committee had long debated whether to seek testimony from or subpoena Trump or former Vice President Mike Pence. Neither has spoken directly to the committee. While Trump has been hostile to the probe both in court and in public, Pence's lawyers had engaged with the panel for several months with no clear resolution. Pence could still be called or subpoenaed. But several of his closest aides have complied with the investigation, with several of them providing great detail about his movements and state of mind as he resisted Trump's pleas to object to the certification of electoral votes that day and try to overturn their defeat. In contrast, the committee showed several clips of Trump allies refusing to answer questions before the panel. Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin, a Democrat, said the committee was “able to nail down every salient detail in pretty much every element of the offense” except for certain details about what Trump was doing and saying as the insurrection unfolded. Pelosi and Schumer, in hiding New video aired by the panel showed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi reacting emotionally to the news that her colleagues were donning gas masks in the House chamber as rioters neared. She quickly went to work trying to secure and reopen the Capitol. Pelosi and Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer were seen in unidentified secure locations and talking to security officials. The footage included a conversation between Pelosi and Pence, who was also in a secure location, discussing their return to the session to finish certifying Biden's victory. The footage was filmed by Pelosi's daughter, Alexandra Pelosi, according to two people familiar with the video who requested anonymity to discuss it. The two leaders are seen working to bring the National Guard to the Capitol amid an hourslong delay. At one point, Schumer said he was going to “call up the 'effing secretary of DOD,” referring to the Defense Department. “We have some senators who are still in their hideaways,” Schumer told defense officials on the phone. “They need massive personnel now.” 'Consider whether we can survive' The lesson of the committee's investigation is that institutions only hold when people of good faith protect them without regard to political cost, Cheney said during the hearing. “Why would Americans assume that our Constitution and our institutions in our Republic are invulnerable to another attack? Why would we assume that those institutions will not falter next time?” Cheney asked. The warnings come as Trump is still refusing to acknowledge that he lost his reelection to Joe Biden and is considering another run in 2024 – and as many Republicans who deny Biden's win are running in the midterm elections at all levels of government. Many states have replaced election officials who resisted Trump's pressure campaign. “Any future president inclined to attempt what Donald Trump did in 2020 has now learned not to install people who could stand in the way,” said Cheney, who lost her own Republican primary this August. “Consider whether we can survive for another 246 years.” Secret Service revelations The committee has obtained more than 1.5million pages of documents from the Secret Service in recent weeks. They revealed some of that information in the hearing, including an email from within the agency on Dec. 11, 2020, the day the Supreme Court rejected one of Trump's attempts to undermine the vote. “Just fyi. POTUS is p–d – breaking news – Supreme Court denied his law suit. He is livid now,” one anonymous Secret Service email said. Multiple emails showed the agency had ample warnings of violence in the weeks and days ahead of the insurrection. An alert received by the agency on Dec. 24 said multiple online users were targeting members of Congress and “instructing others to march into the chambers,” said California Rep. Adam Schiff, a Democratic member of the panel. California Rep. Pete Aguilar, another Democratic member, said the committee “will be recalling witnesses and conducting further investigative depositions” based on the Secret Service material. The agency has not turned over text messages it said were deleted. Aguilar also warned the committee is reviewing testimony regarding potential obstruction of some witnesses. The committee has said in the past that some witnesses were intimidated against speaking. Cabinet officials The committee showed prerecorded interviews with former Cabinet members, including Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, Attorney General William Barr and Labor Secretary Eugene Scalia, who said they believed that once the legal avenues had been exhausted, that should have been the end of Trump's effort to remain in power. Pompeo, who was interviewed by the panel since its last hearing in July, said in his videotaped testimony he believed that once the Electoral College certified the vote, that was the end of the process for contesting the election. “We should all comply with the law at all times, to the best of our ability – every one of us,” Pompeo said. Chao, who is married to Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell, said she decided to resign after the insurrection because it was “impossible for me to continue given my personal values and my philosophy.” At the same time, Trump continued to push the false claims of fraud to his millions of supporters. “President Trump knew the truth. He heard what all his experts and senior staff was telling him,” said Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger, the committee's other Republican. “His intent was plain: ignore the rule of law and stay in power.” Criminal referrals Cheney addressed one of the committee's remaining questions at the beginning of the meeting, saying the panel “may ultimately decide to make a series of criminal referrals to the Department of Justice.” At the end of the hearing, she mentioned the possibility again, saying it has “sufficient information to consider criminal referrals for multiple individuals.” Members of the committee have long suggested they may suggest charges for Trump or others based on their own evidence. While such a referral would not force any action, it would place political pressure on Attorney General Merrick Garland as the department has pursued its own investigations surrounding Jan. 6.

Members phkrause Posted October 30, 2022 Author Members Share Posted October 30, 2022 Threats to lawmakers soar since Jan. 6 riot Attack on Pelosi's husband shows need for better security for members of Congress Mary Clare Jalonick ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — It's something that goes along with being a member of Congress, no matter your party or your status: constant threats to your life, and the unshakable feeling that they're only getting worse. In the almost two years since the Capitol insurrection, in which supporters of former President Donald Trump broke into the Capitol and hunted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and members of Congress, threats to lawmakers and their families have increased sharply. Early Friday, an assailant looking for Pelosi broke into her San Francisco home and used a hammer to attack her husband, Paul, who suffered bluntforce injuries and was hospitalized. It is, in fact, getting worse: The U.S. Capitol Police investigated almost 10,000 threats to members last year, more than twice the number from four years earlier. “We are 100%, completely vulnerable and the risks are increasing,” says Illinois Rep. Mike Quigley, a Chicagoarea Democrat. “If someone wants to harm you, they know where you live, they know where you work.” Lawmakers have pressured congressional leaders and the Capitol Police for better security, especially for their families and their homes outside of Washington. They have made some progress, with security officials promising to pay for upgrades to certain security systems and an increased Capitol Police presence outside Washington. But the vast majority of members are mostly on their own as they figure out how to keep themselves and their families safe in a country where political violence has become alarmingly frequent. See THREATS, Page 3A Continued from Page 1A The attack on Paul Pelosi happened when Nancy Pelosi was out of town, which meant there was less of a security presence in their home. “It's attacks like this that make all of us stand back and wonder what we can do better,” says Rep. Rodney Davis, R-Ill., who was at a baseball practice four years ago in Alexandria, Virginia, when a gunman wounded Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., and four other people. Davis, who was defeated for reelection in his Republican primary earlier this year, says security needs to be improved for members and their families, and “we also have to work to tone down some of the violent rhetoric that inspires some of these individuals to do what they do.” As have many of their colleagues, Davis and Quigley both say they have improved security at their homes in recent years. Two years after the baseball shooting, an Illinois man was arrested for threatening to shoot Davis in the head. Randall Tarr pleaded guilty to federal charges and was sentenced to probation. Davis has since urged his colleagues to report all threats to the police and work with local prosecutors to make sure people are charged. “You've got to take that threat seriously,” he says. Incidents like that are disturbingly common. On Friday, just hours after the assault on Pelosi, the Justice Department announced that a man pleaded guilty to making threatening telephone calls to an unidentified California congressman's office and saying he had “a lot of AR-15s” and wanted to kill the congressman and members of his staff. In July, a man accosted New York Rep. Lee Zeldin, a Republican who is running for governor of New York, as he spoke at a campaign event and told Zeldin, “You're done.” Zeldin wrestled the man to the ground and escaped with only a minor scrape. Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., revealed earlier this year that a man came to her house with a gun, screaming obscenities. After the incident, she wrote congressional leaders a letter and asked them to do more to keep members safe. Lawmakers have received some upgraded security since the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection. In July, the House Sergeant at Arms sent a letter to all House offices saying that members could have up to $10,000 reimbursed for security upgrades in their homes, including intrusion detection systems, cameras, locks and lighting. But in reality, sophisticated security can cost much more. And some members do get added security, if there are serious threats. Nancy Pelosi and other congressional leaders have Capitol Police security with them at all times, as do members who are deemed to be most vulnerable at any given time. That security apparatus doesn't always extend to families when the member isn't at home, however, making spouses like Paul Pelosi more vulnerable. Members of the House committee investigating the Jan.6 insurrection also have round-theclock protection. Rep. Bennie Thompson, DMiss., the chair of the committee, issued a statement Friday urging “federal agencies and law enforcement to redouble their efforts to protect officials, our elections, and our democracy in the days ahead.” Illinois Rep. Adam Kinzinger, one of two Republicans on that committee, recently released menacing voicemails he had received threatening his wife and baby. Kinzinger tweeted Friday after Paul Pelosi's assault that “every GOP candidate and elected official must speak out, and now.” Republican Rep. Davis also urged his colleagues, Democrat and Republican, to condemn the attack. “The attack on Paul Pelosi is not only an attack on Nancy Pelosi and her family,” Davis said. “It's an attack on all of us.” Quote phkrause By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness.
