Mark Meadows Stops Cooperating With January 6th House Select Committee By Bill Galluccio Spoiler December 7, 2021 Photo: CQ-Roll Call, Inc. Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows has informed the House select committee investigating the January 6th riots at the U.S. Capitol that he will no longer cooperate with the investigation. Meadows turned over thousands of documents to the committee last week and planned to sit down with lawmakers this week. Meadows' attorney George Terwilliger sent a letter to the committee explaining he would not sit down for a deposition and accused lawmakers of overstepping their constitutional bounds. "It is well-established that Congress's subpoena authority is limited to the pursuit of a legitimate legislative purpose. Congress has no authority to conduct law enforcement investigations or free-standing "fact-finding" missions," Terwilliger wrote. Terwilliger told the committee it was clear that the committee "has no intention of respecting boundaries concerning Executive Privilege." He also cited the fact that the committee subpoenaed information from a "third-party communications provider without regard to either the broad breadth of the information sought, which would include intensely personal communications of no moment to any legitimate matters of interest to the Select Committee." "Yet again, with the breadth of its subpoenas and its pugnacious approach, the Select Committee has made clear that it does not intend to respect these important constitutional limits," the letter continues. Meadows is not the first person to refuse to cooperate with the committee. Steve Bannon was charged with two counts of contempt of Congress after refusing to turn over documents and sit down with lawmakers for a deposition. He has pleaded not guilty. It is unclear if Meadows could face similar charges. Terwilliger told Fox News that Meadows "has made every effort to try and accommodate and work with this committee" and said they "will cross that bridge" when the time comes. Cliffs: I gave you papers and I'm not saying shit. Dems: Oh yea, we arrest you like we did Bannon Meadows' lawyer, "We've dared them to do something. If they do something, them maybe we'll see, but they won't do shit
I’m sure Biden is going to listen to some senile fucking Republican from Mississippi. Spell ‘nuclear,’ fuckface. Looked it up, Wicker is 70, he sounds as bad as 124 year old Dianne Feinstein. It’s a very obvious attempt to make Biden’s discussions more difficult.
Not at all. The guy who owned the land died and the executor of his will (probably an embarrassed heir) decided to take it down. It wasn't a public monument. Some dude just put it up himself.
Twitter Suspends Anti-Extremist Accounts After They're Flagged By ... Extremists: Report Far-right users launched a “coordinated and malicious” attack to exploit a new Twitter privacy rule, according to The Washington Post. By Mary Papenfuss 12/04/2021 08:46am EST Twitter said Friday that it mistakenly suspended accounts that were flagged in a “coordinated and malicious” attack by white supremacists and other far-right groups targeting journalists and accounts tracking extremists, The Washington Post reported. Twitter instituted a new rule earlier this week allowing people to report accounts that post photos or videos of them without permission, which the company said was intended to increase privacy protections. Extremist groups urged members to take advantage of the rule and report accounts used to identify and track neo-Nazis, other extremists and hate rallies, the Post reported Thursday. “Things now unexpectedly work more in our favor,” crowed one Nazi sympathizer in a tweet, the Post noted. “It’s going to be emboldening to the fascists,” Gwen Snyder, an anti-fascist researcher and organizer in Philadelphia, told the Post. Her account was one of those temporarily suspended for posting a photo of a Proud Boys rally. Twitter spokesman Trenton Kennedy told the Post that the company was overwhelmed with a “significant amount” of malicious reports, and that its “enforcement teams made several errors” in their response. Kennedy didn’t reveal the number of baseless reports, but said there were “dozens of erroneous suspensions.” Twitter claims the new rule is intended to prevent “the misuse of media to harass or intimidate private individuals.” Exceptions can be made in cases where shared photos or videos are “shared in the public interest.” Some pointed out that such a crackdown would have seriously inhibited the amateur sleuthing that helped identify Jan. 6 Capitol rioters. It was unclear as of Friday night if the suspended accounts were all back online. Some users said their accounts that track extremists remained suspended Friday, the Post noted.
Finally getting around to watching Alt-Right on Netflix about Charlottesville and lol at this white supremacist clown and his security team staying at Econo Lodge. White trash gonna white trash...and this clown grew up rich.
The mechanic was talking about how his insurance cut him off of his insulin pens right before the end of the year. Feel bad, sort of, but we got on the topic of actual prices of insulin. I commiserated with him that the price should be next to free, but we’re at the mercy of the insurance companies. Big Boss proclaimed, “Well as soon as the new year rolled around, Biden jacked up all those prices!” I asked, “How at the start of the year did Biden make that change, since he wasn’t officially the President until January 20th? Boss- “I don’t know what he did, but he did it!” Me- “You do realize, in a Capitalist Free Market the government has no control on price regulation for private industries, right?” Boss- “I don’t know how, but Biden is behind it!” Me- “It sounds like you’re getting a bunch of Fake News from Facebook and Fox.” And that was the end of the morning AM pre meeting coffee break.
I know the former administration has some wild theories on who gets to claim or waive executive privilege but I’m positive everyone agrees the decision doesn’t rest with the former Chief of Staff.
