So ... I'm a bit disappointed with today's hearings. On Thursday Cheney outed Perry as having sought a pardon, and that there were others as well. She didn't drop any more names today, keeping everyone hanging.
Perry did claim that the whole thing was an "absolute, shameless, and soulless lie" but I can't image Cheney saying something like that in front of millions without solid proof?
Ocasio-Cortez saw an opening and pounced on Boebert, Gaetz, and even Jordan among others, asking them about pardon requests. Replies ran the gamut: antifa rioting, crime-ridden cities and Hunter Biden ... didn't see any mention of Hillary ... AOC also volunteered that she had in fact not asked for a Presidential Pardon.
Most Republicans did not chip in but a number of other Democrats also affirmed they did not ask for a pardon.
Today's hearing had a drunken Giuliani playing the part of Rasputin ... can't wait for what's next ...

BROKEN ARROW, Okla. — A man who walked into an AT&T store carrying a rifle and wearing a tactical vest is now in jail, according to Broken Arrow police. The problem seems to have been that he also had brass nuckles. Also his shorts?
[ Interesting town name ... I recall that as code for plane crash with nukes on board. ]

That is not your normal law abiding citizen. That is an Antifa, social justice, idiot. I'd arrest him too!

At least that part is correct.
Meanwhile today the hearings had more Pardon teasers among other highlights:
“I've decided that I should be on the pardon list, if that is still in the works.”
"I don't want to be your friend anymore if you don’t do this."
“Donald Trump and his allies and supporters are a clear and present danger to our democracy."

Tuesday highlights:
“We have lots of theories, we just don’t have the evidence.”

Noted today, explaining much what of what is happening.
Trump: “You guys may not be following the internet the way I do.”
and, finally, Pardon teasers resolved:
Matt Gaetz requested pardons for himself and “every congressman and senator who voted to reject the electoral vote submissions from Arizona and Pennsylvania.” Some others asked individually, presumably in case Trump didn't pull off the (still ongoing) coup:
Gaetz "For any and all things"
Brooks
Biggs
Jordan
Gohmert
Perry
Greene
There is precedence for expelling members of Congress. We may, should in my opinion, be heading that way.
