    Rather than sorting through everything that gets posted in the Trumpocalypse thread in the coming weeks, figured we could used a dedicated thread for this shitshow.

    When are the hearings’ dates and times?
    The first hearing will start Thursday, June 9, at 8 p.m. Eastern. The second will be held Monday, June 13th, at 10 a.m. Eastern. There is also a hearing Wednesday, June 15th at 10 a.m. Eastern, and there could be even more that week. The committee hasn’t announced a formal schedule for the rest, but there could be as many as eight in total through June, with a final hearing in September — right before the November midterm elections.

    How to watch the hearings
    The committee usually live-streams its hearings, and most major TV news stations will be airing at least Thursday’s hours-long hearings in full: ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC and CNN plan to. Fox News is the only major news network to decide not to, instead saying it will continue with its regular, primetime coverage and talk about the hearings “as warranted.”



    The Washington Post will have anchored coverage and analysis beginning Thursday night 7 p.m. Eastern on YouTube and www.washingtonpost.com. C-SPAN will air all hearings in full.

    All four major networks airing it. I better still get to watch FBI, Law and Order, Blue Bloods, 911, SEALS, and Cop Bois.

    This is not the kind of opening that is built for prime time tv I feel like. I know that sounds stupid, but for something like this it feels important?

    The American population has an attention SPAC the size of a gnats asshole. I hope they roll clip after clip, and let them do the talking. Bite sized bits are easier to digest and more likely to gain traction on social media, the news, etc.

    These people are so boring. Democracy will continue to die because we our elected leaders can’t convey emotion in concise, clear messaging.

    Did you watch the first 5 minutes? It wss awful. Cheney has been much better and is showing receipts. I get it's not a movie but we need people to watch and follow this.

    She's calm and sober but has a look on her face that says she knows it's likely the end of her political career *minimally* since people will probably try to kill her over this... and if Trump returns to office, she's getting arrested.

    If the Republic falls, quite frankly, it's not her fault.
