1.7K opinions shared on Society & Politics topic. 30 years ago some a wise man told me that young guys (like me then) should avoid getting involved in protests because anytime there's violence it's almost always a government op and the arrest record will mess up your life. I later saw first hand how if you're in a group of say 20+ people and 1 guy is urging everybody else to do violence or 'step it up', that guy is actually a paid informant working for the government. You might not see the evidence of this till years later but experience teaches you.

@goaded George Floyd's mom came forward to denounce BLM. She said she went to an event & there they claimed to be raising money for her but none of them recognized her because they never bothered to meet her and it was a lie. She said at the time she was afraid to speak out because she knew she would be attacked for telling the truth.

@goaded @Juxtapose I actually would give all of the video footage to the rest of mainstream media, because I have no doubt that the vast majority of them wouldn't even bother showing any of it (or they'd cherrypick, like Schiff), which would further highlight their bias. Force them to either fess up, or continue their lying.

Funnily enough, I don't find identifying the parts that show laws being broken or the hypocrisy of Republican lawmakers running away from events they encouraged "cherry-picking", I consider that exposing the truth.
" Addressing the video Carlson played of Chansley walking with officers in the building, prosecutors wrote that “it is true that a sole officer, who was trying to de-escalate the situation, was with Chansley as he made his way to the Senate floor after initially breaching the Chamber.”
“But the televised footage fails to show that Chansley subsequently refused to be escorted out by this lone officer and instead left the Capitol only after additional officers arrived and forcibly escorted him out,” prosecutors say." - +1 y

@goaded All the video footage needs to be made available to everyone. Unedited, uncensored, and without redactions. With that as a given, Schiff had his opportunity to show that portion of the video footage to which you are referring.

"dude we all know it was a fucking setup by the feds" No, we don't. Because it wasn't. Repeating lies people have told you over and over will never make them true. All it might do is get people to believe they are.
@NYCQuestions1976 Yes, but only the video showing people committing crimes is really interesting. As to hearsay, that's still proof that the people said those things, it's just not proof that the things they said were true. What you then do is get testimony from the person who you now know said it. That's how investigations (which is what the Jan 6 committee was undertaking) work.
For example, I could testify under oath that @Juxtapose told us "it was a fucking setup by the feds". That would be admissible proof that he said it, absolutely not proof that it was true. - +1 y
@goaded "For example, I could testify under oath that @Juxtapose told us "it was a fucking setup by the feds". That would be admissible proof that he said it, absolutely not proof that it was true."
No! That is 100% an exact textbook example of hearsay! In this example, you testifying under oath that @Juxtapose told you something specific isn't admissible, because you yourself could be lying. The only time that's not the case is if @Juxtapose was one of the litigants in this example.
That's why the Cassidy Hutchinson testimony was nothing more than a soap opera and a complete waste of time. She testified that she overheard a conversation about a phone call that somebody else was on. It's at least triple hearsay, and totally inadmissible. Then, to make it even more laughable, when two of the Secret Service agents who were actually there offered to testify, they were never called to testify, because their first-hand testimony would've completely rebutted Hutchinson's triple hearsay. The entire thing, from soup to nuts, is all a giant sham. - +1 y
Sorry, but you're wrong.
"Hearsay is a statement, other than one made by the declarant while testifying at the trial or hearing, offered in evidence to prove the truth of the matter asserted." (US Federal Rules of Evidence).
If "the matter asserted" is "it was a fucking setup by the feds", my statement could not be used to prove the truth of that matter in court because that would be hearsay.
However, if the matter being asserted is that "@Juxtapose told us "it was a fucking setup by the feds"", that's not hearsay, because it is my testimony that he told us that. See?
There are also a ton of exceptions to the hearsay rule that allow that sort of thing to be used in evidence in court. - +1 y
- +1 y
No, I'm trying to explain what makes something hearsay or not. It's not really that difficult to understand: If I testify under oath that "Fred said it was raining", that is admissable evidence that Fred said it was raining, but it is not admissable evidence that it was raining because that falls under the hearsay rules.
In the context of an investigation, the statement is useful because it can lead to Fred being asked to testify whether it was in fact raining or not.
I expect it could also be used if Fred claims he never said it was raining, which would be his word against mine. - +1 y
@goaded In all of the combined scenarios from above, "Fred" would be the two Secret Service agents who were actually there and they actually offered to testify under oath. Yet for some reason, they were never asked by Schiff or the rest of the Peanut Gallery to appear under oath and testify. Hutchinson's testimony under oath was triple hearsay and is inadmissible in a criminal hearing or trial, thus the Hearsay Olympics were a waste of time and a waste of my tax dollars.
- +1 y
Why do you keep talking about non-existent "triple hearsay", when you've seen how hearsay actually works? (Not to mention pretending this one thing was the whole of her testimony.)
Hutchinson's testimony that she was told that story is absolutely not hearsay and would be admissible in a court. It does not prove the truth of the story itself, which would require the secret service agents' testimony. That's the hearsay rule.
Setting up a deposition under oath from anyone is not a five minute thing, it's entirely likely that they had other things that were more important in the investigation. Nobody, by the way, has disputed that Trump wanted to be driven to the Capitol where a riot was going on. Why do you think he would feel safe in such a situation?
While we're at it, you never talk about the forged documents purporting to be "alternate slates" of electors coming from Republican states Trump lost, or the decision to try to get Pence to ignore the votes of millions of Americans so that the Republican dominated House could install Trump as president, even though they knew Trump had lost, and that the plan was illegal. Why is that? - +1 y
@goaded So they had time to set up for testimony from someone who heard someone else talking about a phone conversation about something that allegedly happened somewhere else (triple hearsay), but had no time to set up for testimony from two eye witnesses who were there with the litigant and volunteering to fully cooperate? You're naïve, gullible, and borderline dangerous.
- +1 y
Sigh. You're clearly going to keep ignoring the facts of hearsay, and all the other wrongdoing exposed by the committee.
When is it acceptable to forge documents to pretend to be duly appointed Electoral College electors for a state?
When is it acceptable for legislators or the Vice President to use those forgeries as an excuse to take the election away from the people and hand it to a Republican dominated House?
When is it acceptable for a president to knowingly lie about the result of the election that would oust them from power?
When is it acceptable to use those lies to gather an armed mob and send them to the Capitol to fight like hell?
Hutchinson's sworn testimony that she was told the story about Trump trying to seize the wheel would be hearsay if used as proof that Trump tried to seize the wheel, but it is admissible proof that she was told the story. Likewise (assuming you're not misrepresenting the situation), it's a fact that in your example it's proof that she heard someone talking about a phone conversation. Nobody is taking that as proof that the phone conversation occurred or was accurately reported, but it is useful information to an investigation. - +1 y
- +1 y
So you do know that all those things are true and exposed by the Jan 6 committee, you're just pretending that the only important thing is corroborating a single story about how Trump behaved when he demanded to be taken into the middle of a riot he clearly knew he'd be completely safe in because they were his people.
- +1 y
@goaded There's no point in me continuing on with this non-productive conversation in any serious manner. You don't have a proper legal grasp on the hearsay laws in this country (especially under oath in a criminal hearing, where the threshold is "beyond a reasonable doubt") and are actively trying to explain away actual video footage of the event in question.

@goaded She literally testified that she overheard someone having a conversation about someone else who had a phone conversation about an event. That's triple hearsay. Or a high school gossip ring.

It's amazing the lengths you will go to to avoid talking about the other very clear evidence.

@goaded Maybe if Squidward Schiff didn't waste his time (and my tax dollars) listening to triple hearsay testimony, someone could've been able to prove all of that, instead of hoping it's all true, like you're doing.

The Jan 6th committee investigation wasn't a waste of time or money because it exposed the conspiracy of lies, forgery, misrepresentation, lawlessness, and violence, all in an effort to steal the presidency.
You're pretending to be obsessed by one minor point in one minor aspect of the investigation (based on a misunderstanding of how hearsay works) because you know that there was a genuine attempt to steal the presidency that very nearly succeeded.
It involved lies, forgery, bogus lawsuits, knowingly breaking the law and, when all that failed, sending a violent armed mob to the Capitol including people who'd planned in advance to do just breach the building. If you'd actually followed the investigation rather than just trying to manufacture outrage and pretending that anything depends on any of the statements you call "hearsay", you'd know that.
There's one reason, and one reason only, that Trump would have wanted to go to a place where violence was taking place, and that's that he knew they were on his side. Same as when he didn't care about people being armed. - +1 y

You've got no factual proof about anything you've been yammering on about for YEARS now. So yes... you need a rabies shot. Or at least a hobby.

There are the actual forged documents that were sent to the National Archives!

Why did Republicans forge documents and pretend to be real electors? Why did Trump try to pressure Pence to treat those forgeries as an excuse to throw out states' election results? Why did Trump knowingly send an armed mob to the Capitol when Pence refused?
Examples:![Was Jan 6th instigated by feds?]()
![Was Jan 6th instigated by feds?]()
"On Dec. 14, 2020, Republicans in seven battleground states issued false Electoral College certificates declaring then-President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence the winner of the presidential election in their respective states – despite Joe Biden having won the state. In each of the seven states (Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, New Mexico, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin), the groups filed their false certifications with the National Archives."

Well, it isn't irrelevant because the images are of actual, factual reality. And they were not unimportant because they were sent to the National Archives, which is the body that receives the real slates of electors, like the one below. The point isn't that they were impressive or realistic, the point is that they were an excuse to claim the state's results were contested, ignore them, and pass the choice of president to the House on a 2 votes per state basis, which would be majority Republican. And that might have worked, if Pence had played along with the illegal plan, or if he'd been removed from the Capitol until the session was over.

That never happened actually, the claims of the January 6th zealots is based on what the federal government tried to incite the protesters to do themselves. You don't want to see what a group of people who are trained and dedicated to violence could do to the white house.

Have you not heard of the rule of law? Stopping the count and having it pass to a Republican majority to vote on would at least have had a veneer of legitimacy and could only have been overcome by honourable Republicans voting to install Biden.

Trump and his supporters nearly stole the presidency that day and people like you have been refusing to understand that or lying about it ever since.
There was no legal way to run the Electoral College vote count remotely. That's why it was attacked.
Forged documents were created by Republicans in states Trump lost to give cover to potentially throw out those states' votes and throw the decision to a Republican majority House vote. Once that plan fell through, violence was the only option to steal the presidency. - +1 y
