Donald Trump’s latest threat to “jail” members of the January 6 Committee is nothing more than the desperate howl of a man who knows history will regard him with shame.
Yes, I stand with you Adam Kinzinger and the rest of the Jan 6th Committee. Trump and his crooked cronies cannot be allowed to step over the line and in any way threaten to imprison the people on that Committee. If we allow that, then we are truly finished as a nation. Finished as an honest people with any integrity or courage. There is no way that this can be allowed to happen!
Adam, you have done so much for all of us, we will not ever stand idly by if any attempt at revenge is attempted against you or anyone who worked to have truth prevail.
Again, Trump's childlike threats are only offered as reenforcement of his tough guy image and are intended for his MAGA morons.
Your character, courage and commitment to your beliefs are in a realm that Trump does not even know exists
I think you hit the nail on the head. Trump is an overgrown child who resists all limits, even those that would be for his own good, and just wants what he wants. He is completely unaware, as you said, of character, courage, and commitment to beliefs. We cannot be afraid of him, because ultimately he has no real power. The January 6th Committee showed his utter failure to the world, and I am grateful.
I absolutely agree! A young man ready to stand for what he thinks and means? It’s inspiring! When I saw Adam on that panel, I already knew what he’d given up in his career to remain on his own belief path, but finding out how utterly solid he is in his assessment of what’s going on in Trump world and our government, really gave me hope big time.
Gave up some achievements, but given up his career? No way! If you follow integrity, honesty, discipline and patriotism, you’re on the right path. Mitch McConnell gave up HIS career.
My wife and I were both off work on January 6. She wanted to watch congress in action that day and I wanted to see what was going on outside at the capital at Trump's rally. So we sat and channel surfed back and forth as that whole mess unfolded. I couldn't get the image out of my mind of Trump sitting in the white house stuffing his face with ketchup smeared french fries refusing refusing to offer help.
I felt the America I grew up in dying that day. Especially when some Trumper clown took an American flag down from the face of the Capitol and replaced it with a Trump flag. Damn Trump and his ilk to Hell.
I sooo agree with that! Donald Trump should be in prison. It's beyond my comprehension why ANYONE, conservative, liberal, centrist, or ANY classification could possibly support him nor see him as anything more than a disgrace to this country and the party he represents
Oh, Adam. Thank you for this reminder. I watched every minute of the Committee’s work and am proud to have also read the entire report as published by Celadon Books with The New Yorker (with my copy signed by Bennie G. Thompson, Chairman). He and Vice Chair Liz Chaney brought the truth to the American people. Chairman Thompson wrote “Keep the Faith!” on the title page when he autographed it for me after he was the guest speaker at the annual NAACP meeting locally—a treasured memory.
Your son will most certainly be proud of your work then and now. We can only hope the Trumplicans see the truth. If they don’t, the rest of us do. This was the single most shameful day in this country’s history. Your efforts were not in vain. History will bear that out. I hope to live long enough to see it!
Well said! 🔥 I love this sentence: History will remember the January 6 Committee as defenders of democracy—and you, as a man who betrayed it. You're absolutely right about that. Much respect for your ongoing fight to preserve democracy.
"I’m confident that the name “Trump” will be a stain on our history, and my son will be proud of what I did."
That sentence sums it up perfectly, Adam. Trump can only be the embarrassing villain in this story, while you and the others on the committee will be the heroes. Forever.
I just had a brainstorm (or cerebral short circuit perhaps).
Someone could potentially make a lot of money by selling toilet paper with the word "trump 45 & 47" (capitalized, of course) printed on every sheet! He is so proud of putting his name on buildings, his private plane and his red hats and other places! Why shouldn't the rest of us proudly put it where it belongs?😁😁😁 (yeah, I'm terrible) 😁😁😁
Yes, Richard...you are terrible! Where may I buy some of this toilet paper?.Promise..I won't tell a living soul where I got it! Does it come express delivery?
Bring it on Donald! I’ll stand with Adam and any other member of the committee. I watched the TV on January 6th, and I cried for my country. I will NOT let Trump or the MAGA’s transform our democracy to a fascist oligarchy.
I may not have agreed with you on policy, but I do hold you and all the members of the January 6th committee in high esteem. I watched each public hearing and I was so impressed with the depth of the investigation and the careful laying out of the facts. The truth. Like the majority of Americans, I stand appalled, afraid and ashamed of where our country is going right now. I hold hope that the republic will stand this final, dire assault and the tide will indeed turn. God help us all if it does not. If we do withstand, it will not only be the ordinary citizens who prevail, but leaders like you who give us the courage to stand by our convictions and love of this country.
Evil destroys even itself. Trump is heading down a road of self-destruction and I'm all for it. He won't dare try anything he's too scared to. He's an old weak man. The only reason he ran again for presidency is to avoid consequences to his actions.
You are a truly amazing and brave Defender of Democracy! Please ask President Biden to grant you and the January 6th Investigative Committee preemptive pardons, regardless. You have my vote and my admiration. Many thanks!
Thank you Adam! I we love to see his DOJ try to find something that you guys did illegally, because, well, you did nothing illegal! The committee was formed legally and according to the rules of the House, you guys legally had REPUBLIC'NS testify in front of the committee. I read the report, and the ONLY Democrat was the MI Secretary of State. That's it. Everyone else who told the truth were Republicans and independents. So even if they tried to find something illegal, they couldn't.
Once The Don issues the World of Trump Dictionary there will be a new definition of Illegality. $470 (Plus stiffing and manhandling). Order now or else.
It's an empty threat by a clown Adam. Jeez do i get tired of these guys. I saw Tommy Tubberville on TV recently. Tommy, who either got hit in the head too many times coaching football (badly) or drinking too much... He's getting a nose like a boozer for sure...Jeez does he want to hold unto this gig of his. He has no business being in politics... A real a.. kisser ..Tommy is helping himself/showing at Trumps trials in NY along with the other empty band of brothers...What a week bunch of minions trying to tell America we are your leaders .. Not mine...today or tomorrow... Stay strong Adam...
Adam, Christian will definitely be proud of you as so many Americans are!! If he dares go after you or any of the J6 committee there will be an uprising across this country!! There are still people who are not paying attention but they will if trump does this cowardly act! God bless you and your family!
Thank you for the honesty. I watched Jan 6 in disbelief and later followed the Committee's work. Sure wish the majority of the country would stand strong against this person.
I have heard there is a plan to fund legal representation for Trump's bullying and threats. I think a lot of us would give a little for that. Also, I plan to behave like the South Koreans and the Georgians. Make it crystal clear to Trump that we won't be intimidated.
Trump’s interview on Meet the Press today was shameful. In addition to threatening the J6 committee, he made it clear that he intends to pardon the insurrectionists who beat law enforcement officers and marauded through the Capitol. Trump also said he can’t guarantee that his economic policies won’t cause price increases. His whole campaign was a scam and a lie, and a plurality of voters bought it.

I didn’t say he gave up his career. I said “what he had given up in his career”, meaning his place in the House. That, in itself, is significant.
I know, I kinda straw-Personed ya. Sorry.
You’re a leader I could follow, Adam.

Beautiful words, Paula...a legacy to be proud of.
I just had a brainstorm (or cerebral short circuit perhaps).

DITTO! but please make it out of bamboo paper, no trees should die for anything trump-related.
Paula...you just " scraped by" with that one !....chuckle...chuckle...ouch.!
GREAT IDEA! But maybe have just his face?
Bring it on Donald! I’ll stand with Adam and any other member of the committee. I watched the TV on January 6th, and I cried for my country. I will NOT let Trump or the MAGA’s transform our democracy to a fascist oligarchy.

Thank you for the honesty. I watched Jan 6 in disbelief and later followed the Committee's work. Sure wish the majority of the country would stand strong against this person.
Sally, joining Country First may well call together honest people standing up for much needed truth and sanity in the public arena.
We can only hope.

As always, thank you Adam.
