Two Maga activists are spilling all to 1/6 committee along with documents

[Bev54]

A couple, who are Maga activists and involved with the planning of 1/6 are now talking with the 1/6 committee. While reading their interview with Rolling Stone, it appears to me that they may be trying to rehabilitate their reputations, I concluded it was some sour grapes from not getting a previous pardon from Trump and the fact that some of the more elite Maga's are getting their legal expenses funded in relation to their defense from 1/6 committee, this couple is getting nothing.

In any event they have named some names like Bannon, Gosar, Cawthorn and Amy Klemer and have handed over social media messages etc. Sounds like they may have a plethora of information and evidence. They are still believers of wrong doings in the election but they considered the coup attempt a step too far. (I am not convinced that they are not just protecting themselves).

That is the problem when the Maga elite ignore those on the ground, they tend to turn on them.

Among the documents the couple is providing are conversations they had with staffers and members of Congress as they planned the main rally that took place on the White House Ellipse that day. Stockton described these discussions as largely logistical and focused on planning the members’ participation in objections to the electoral certification on the House floor and various events that were staged to protest against the election. They include Instagram messages Lawrence exchanged with Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.) as she tried to get him to speak at the Ellipse rally. Cawthorn, whose office did not immediately respond to a request for comment, ultimately appeared onstage at that event.

“We’re turning it all over and we’ll let the cards fall where they may,” Stockton says.

1. The drip, drip, drip is what's needed to turn the tide

of public opinion. Whether it's "he left us hanging after promising pardons" or just a general disgust with the criminality, winning over more and more Americans is what is needed.

2. Their names: Dustin Stockton, Jennifer Lynn Lawrence are set to testify next week before the House

investigating the attack on the U.S. Capitol. The pair will deliver testimony and turn over documents, including text messages, that indicate the extensive involvement members of Congress and the Trump administration had in planning the House challenge to certifying Biden’s election and rally near the White House where Donald Trump spoke — efforts that ultimately contributed to a massive and violent attack on the Capitol.

3. First to squeal, gets a deal. CYA 101 Hope they actually have proof that will stand up in court.

[empedocles]

9. Yes

[Funtatlaguy]

4. I hope they don't get "Epsteined". They need security.

[sarcasmo]

12. Article said the they have been in hiding for a couple months.

[Duppers]

13. Indeed!

[former9thward]

5. This is about the main rally which was legal and had a permit,

So what is the "spilling all"?

[lindysalsagal]

6. That's just the point: If they were only doing the legal, approved rally, they wouldn't need so much

information from staffers and congress people.

It proves they intended to go way beyond the limits of a typical rally.

[former9thward]

7. No it does not prove that.

Maybe to you but it would go nowhere in a court. The social media stuff is all public anyway. It is not secret.

[Runningdawg]

10. Well then where are the social media posts from the members of congress we all KNOW were involved?

This is about more than social media posts. This is about who in the inner circle of hell knew what and when.

[Bev54]

8. It is also about their communications with others, including congress members

and staff efforts to interrupt the peaceful transfer of power. It all relates to Trump attempts to overturn the election. Yes the insurrection coup attempt was the crescendo but there was a lot of other schemes going on. They had contacts with many and are in the know of who was involved. Do I for one minute believe these two did not have more information, no, they are cohorts of Bannon. I think they are holding back their own involvement but we will have to wait and see on that.

11. K&R

[librechik]

14. The pair are booked to be on All in With Chris Hayes tomorrow

should be interesting, if they show...

[GoodRaisin]

15. It's this level of activists that will bring the whole

shithouse down on the Trump conspiracy to overthrow the government and insert himself as an unelected dictator. The higher level traitors like Bannon, Meadows, etc. aren’t going to tell on themselves but these activists can provide the link between those close to Trump and those who mobilized the insurrectionists in months leading up to Jan. 6.

Once they start talking the vail should really start falling off all the traitors in Congress and Trump’s cronies and their roles. Get the popcorn ready.
