Jan 6 committee hearings produce a 'miracle': bipartisanship

LA Times  

There was plenty of powerful evidence presented during Day 4 of the House select committee hearings on Jan. 6, showing how President Trump and his allies coerced, bullied and schemed at the state level to overturn the results of the 2020 election. One reason the hearings haven’t devolved into a prime opportunity to humiliate the opponent may be the fact that House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy already withdrew all of his appointees to the committee after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi rejected Reps. Jim Jordan and Jim Banks, both of whom had spread disinformation related to the 2020 election result. “What was it like to compete with a president who had the biggest bully pulpit in the world?” Schiff asked Georgia election official Gabriel Sterling, who is known for his late 2020 news conference pleading with Trump to “stop inspiring people to commit potential acts of violence. Trying to counter the misinformation, Sterling testified Tuesday, “was like a shovel trying to empty the ocean.” Testimony also came from his boss, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, whom Trump famously asked in a recorded phone call to “find” enough votes to overturn Joe Biden’s victory.
