3. I just hope one of his colleagues nearby had their cell phone camera rolling

I sort of think at least some of them must've been recording what was going down that day.

4. The thing is, they've all been shown video of the violent mob storming the Capitol

They are obviously being disingenuous if the attempt to deny it - including the very real threats to both Pence and Pelosi. And anyone who was present that day experienced it first hand.

5. Don't believe it. They know.

But make no mistake: they know.

6. Of course they do.

And with the pressure for them to testify about the Pence threat, they need to be forced to tell the truth.
