Well, the Supreme Court is repeatedly said everybody owes the honest truthful testimony to Congress or a court, when they come calling.

I think we have to talk about fascism which Madeleine Albright use to reminded us is not a specific ideology system with particular content.

Tommy was a young man. Indeed, he was a boy who was filled with extraordinary moral and political passion.

I think he would be looking on the bright side of how many people are cooperating with our investigation, how many people are coming forward to tell the truth.

Boom! I hear the sound I will never forget, a sound like a battering ramp, the sound of a group of people barreling up against the central door, with some huge hard thick object, hell-bent on entering the House Chamber.

The basic idea turned on getting Vice President Mike Pence to declare and announce a hitherto unknown and unilateral power in the vice presidency, to repudiate electoral votes from specific states.

In my mind, it was here in the bulls eye center of the action that Trump operated likely along with chief of staff Mark Meadows, Rudy Giuliani, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, Michael Flynn, Senator Josh Hawley, Representative Jim…
