Benjamin Wittes: The Jan. 6 committee report contains a treasure trove in fine print
"Sure, he [Kenneth Klukowski] had worked with the #coup plotters only a few days earlier and was still cc’ed on some emails, but #Klukowski professed himself shocked — shocked! — at their legal arguments, with which he didn’t agree, and he certainly wasn’t helping them. He just wanted to get some litigation experience and do a few oral arguments, he maintained."
"The trouble now, of course, is not that future employers might find out how few days Klukowski actually worked in the Justice Department but that the Jan. 6 committee has alleged that his service made up for in dishonor what it lacked in length."

Tell me again how #Mastodon responds to online extremism.
#WAPO published a link to a memo drafted by the #January6thCommittee that detailed how Twitter and Facebook failed to address extreme rhetoric and calls to violence. Most notably Twitter employees were afraid to enforce their own rules on powerful actors, eg. TFG. Eventually they did the right thing; small numbers of people made decisions that affected millions.

Trying to explain away the changes to his schedule wording to the #January6thCommittee during insurrection planning days, an ex-aide said Trump didn't know his daily schedule was public, changed it😏
The #January6 wording was, “President Trump will work from early in the morning until late in the evening," the schedule read. "He will make many calls and have many meetings. The President will depart for the Ellipse at 10:50am to deliver remarks at the Save America Rally.”

Timothy Snyder on the Jan 6 Report
"What is described in palpable and convincing detail in the Final Report is indeed profoundly shocking: a planned and coordinated attempt by the president of the United States and his allies to carry out regime change in the United States of America on the basis of a Big Lie.
Here is my very brief summary of the factual part of the report, in fifteen quick points:"
#january6th #january6threport #january6thcommittee
"Trump fundraiser never solicited $3 million she raised — and she really hated the Jan. 6 organizers: report" @sarahburris via @RawStory
Also, the report from @ProPublica reveals Julie Fancelli, an American heiress of the Publix grocery store fortune, "sent the jet to pick up all of the Proud Boys and deliver them to DC in style."

It’s like a John LeCarre novel in some respects. Important to remind myself it’s not fiction.

Donald Trump and John Eastman's plan was "a coup in search of a legal theory".
