Cheney: Jan. 6 panel won’t take live TV testimony from Trump

Nyet, dumbasski, but thanks for proving you support the overthrow of the US government. Be sure to kiss Putin's ass before he goes to bed.

What Are the Penalties for Contempt of Congress?
Generally, the penalty for being held in contempt of Congress can range from nothing, to $1,000 fine and a year in jail.

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/2/192
Every person who having been summoned as a witness by the authority of either House of Congress to give testimony or to produce papers upon any matter under inquiry before either House, or any joint committee established by a joint or concurrent resolution of the two Houses of Congress, or any committee of either House of Congress, willfully makes default, or who, having appeared, refuses to answer any question pertinent to the question under inquiry, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of not more than $1,000 nor less than $100 and imprisonment in a common jail for not less than one month nor more than twelve months.

(R.S. § 102; June 22, 1938, ch. 594, 52 Stat. 942.)
you fucking idiot troll.
I know the law. I also know Congress has their own "jail"-but riddle me this beehive head:
when is the last time someone went to jail for contempt of Congress?? now fuck off
 
you fucking idiot troll.

JPP's biggest Putin asskisser calls me a troll. :rofl2:

You obviously don't since I quoted you the penalties, comrade Dookie.

BTW, why weren't you drafted? Too old or just too weak and stupid? Both? Can't they use you to clean bedpans or stack bodybags?
 
This is a dumbass decision by Democrats. Accept it or not the situation is that the Democrats are losing ground in all the polls. Currently there is nothing happening that is changing that as the economy just seems to be getting harder and harder. Trump is now offering himself to you to testify in live TV days before the midterms (if you schedule it properly) and you say no?

The realistic choice is Trump either testifies live or drags this out past the midterms. You dont need to be a good lawyer to be able to drag a subpeona out for 2-3 weeks without refusing it outright. Hell you could refuse it outright and there would be no consequences for 2-3 weeks

ten men who were in contempt of Joe McCarthy back in the 50s........I guess that makes the 1/6 Committee the new McCarthy Commission.......
 
Just a reminder to Scranton Joey: You've got armed drones, Prez. What the fuck do you think that they're for?"
Don't drag him before Congress. Cap his fat ass so we don't have to think about him anymore. He's usually on a fucking golf course, for Christ's sake.
 
WASHINGTON (AP) — Raising the stakes on its extraordinary subpoena to Donald Trump, the House committee investigating the Capitol riot indicated Sunday it would not consider letting the former president testify live on television about the direct role that congressional investigators say he played in trying to overturn the 2020 election.

The committee is demanding Trump’s testimony under oath next month as well as records relevant to its investigation. To avoid a complicated and protracted legal battle, Trump reportedly had told associates he might consider complying with the subpoena if he could answer questions during live testimony.

But Rep. Liz Cheney, the committee’s vice chair, on Sunday rejected the possibility. She said the committee, which makes its major decisions with unanimous consent, would not allow Trump’s testimony to turn into a “food fight” on TV and she warned that the committee will take action if he does not comply with the subpoena.

That's sad. First off, if they televised it TRUMP WOULD COME. He has never seen a camera that he didn't feel needed him in front of it. And it wouldn't matter if he lied or talked complete gibberish...he'd think he'd defeated the committee!

I would have actually paid money to see him testify.

Almost all the testimony was recorded while not in session. It saves time. Congressional members can watch the entire interviews themselves to verify authenticity.

As all the smart people noticed; it was one person answering questions and a roomful of fucking lawyers. Trump's testimony won't be any different than Ivanka's or Bill Barr's...except for all the "on advice of counsel I've elected to exercise my Fifth Amendment rights" as he's done at all the other depositions.
 
The STALINIST DEMTHUGS ARE TERRIFIED OF TRUMP TESTIFYING LIVE BEFORE AMERICA., AS HE WOULD SHRED THEM, AND THEY KNOW IT.

ALL OF AMERICA DOES.

THEY WANT TO BE ABLE TO "EDIT" IT TO FIT THEIR LYINGASS NARRATIVE.


OBVIOUSLY.
 
So, the committee is fucked if they do, and fucked if they don't. They painted themselves into this corner with only two weeks or so to go before they are lame ducks. Cheney and Kinzinger are already gone having lost their primaries. Murphy is gone as she didn't run for reelection. Luria is in a very tight race and likely will lose her Virginia seat. So, 50% of the committee is likely gone come November.
 
What is wrong with letting trump testify on live tv.?? Dems are afraid he'll talk about ashli babbitt - that's the real scandal about j6. But the dems have censored any mention of it.

You immediately go to "they must be afraid" because bullying and fear is the soup you and your fellow twumptards swim in.

The fact is - trump, like he always does will try to blow everything up with one of his bitch boy screaming tirades, like his last debate with Biden.

We don't need to see that. The bitch needs discipline and the J6 panel is bitch-slapping the hell out of the poor manic fuck.

YOUR DESPERATE ATTEMPTS TO EXPLAIN THE STALINIST DEMTHUGS OBVIOUS TERROR ARE HILARIOUS, AND IT IS COMICAL THAT AFTER ALL THEIR BULLSHIT, LIES AND ZERO PROOF, THEY ARE HORRIFIED AT THE PROSPECT OF TRUMP SPEAKIG FREELY BEFORE AMERICANS. :laugh:

It's obvious the cowardly scared fuck is you twump licker. Looks like you need some discipline as well. I'm not desperate. I have all the info I need. If trump wants to try to address the J6's questions it's up to him. The J6 knows he'll try to ignore questions and rant, thus the "no live tv".I'll explain it to you again until it sinks in :)
 
^ Easy to see why you're not here much anymore, dukkha/anatta.
I do like JPP. not so many dumb ass rules like Debate Politics,but at least on DP a thread can get going beforethe trolls fuck it all up

Translation: Only pro-Trumpers and pro-Putins should be allowed to post on JPP.

You two pro-authoritarian dumbasses are on the wrong side of Americanism.
