"SNIP.......

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol will “move quickly” to refer Mark Meadows, Trump’s former White House chief of staff, for criminal contempt for not cooperating with its investigation, NBC News reports.

Now is not the time to be timid.

Voters are watching.

Old school Democrats never put up with Republicans.

Republicans smell weakness.

indicted Bannon within 7 days of taking office. The previous benchmak for a Contempr of Congress indictmane was 9 days,

His predecessor was not confirmed by the Senate, was just "Acting." It's not unreasonable he wanted to wait for the new guy.

Yes, the district in DC is under the DOJ.The new guy doesn't appear to be worried about his boss.

Yeah, I heard about that earlier this week? I'm sure that's a major factor in the time it took for the last one. I hope this one will move more quickly now that he's in place.

Thanks for reminding me. I had a long week out of town for a root canal, just got home yesterday. I think some of my brain cells are still up on the pass or something.

The worst thing I ever had happen to my mouth was my last 2 wisdom teeth removed at the same time. I can't even imagine the mental state you must be in.

I wasn't conscious for it. Which is why I travel elsewhere, I need to be out of it to have that sort of thing going on and at a rate I can afford since it's out of pocket. I don't mess around, my PTSD would make it impossible for the dentist to get through the process. If it's more than a cleaning, I can't handle it. They have to gas me just to start the IV. At least we have some laughs as I go under. They say they think I'm funny, I can't recall, but they're nice to me when I am conscious.

As the grand jury takes to make the decision, again, as is required in this process.

They are moving with all deliberate speed, they just aren't putting it all out there like tfg and his minions did.
