Still love the Brian Williams snark

When talking about Senator Johnson, comments, “Translated from the original Russian”. He is funny.

Dr Bedlia was trying to suppress a grin.

Pelosi Staff on last nights CNN Special "they take us hostage?, yea, I think"

https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/staffers-recall-insurrectionists-hunting-nancy-063839952.html

It was chilling when the two women who worked for the Speaker were recounting their 1/6 experience. Hiding behind a closed door and hoping that it would protect them after the exterior doors had already been breached. The insurrectionist hauntingly calling out "Nancy, where are you".

One of them said while they were talking that day while hoping the door would hold, "They take us hostage, right?" the other said "yea, I think?" and Republicans are calling it a regular tourism day. Listening to them last night, I felt terrible. They were hoping that if found they would be taken hostage as it sounded better than the alternative. let that set in, they were hoping to be taken hostage..... We failed them. Anyone who was in the building that day needs to go to jail to ensure this never happens again. If there are not consequences, it will..... This is the definition of Domestic Terrorism. Terrorists need to be treated as such. Investigate, Charge, Hold trials, Convict, Jail and set the example so this does not happen again.

Now that the Justice Department is subpoenaing members of Congress Records

Looks like it is time for Justice to seize the records as they relate to Jan 6 from members of Congress. While they are at it, maybe subpoena all communications with Bill Barr and Jeff Sessions.
