Woodward on 1/6 Hearing: ‘What Happened Tonight Was Historic’ — ‘Truly Brilliant Presentation’

Thursday on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360,” Washington Post associate editor Bob Woodward called the House Select Committee on the January 6 riots “historic.”

Cooper asked, “Was there anything really new tonight? For minds that are already made up, was there anything new that would convince people to look at this in a new light?”

Woodward replied, “Oh, yes. I think what happened tonight was historic. I think it’s a brilliant, truly brilliant presentation by Benny Thompson and by Liz Cheney. Listen to the detail and the — they have it, they have it cold as best I can tell and from my own reporting.”

Discussing former CIA Director Gina Haspel, Woodward said, “This is what she said a week after the election that Trump lost when he fired Mark Esper, the Defense Secretary. Quote, ‘Yesterday was appalling. We are on the way to a right-wing coup. The whole thing is insanity. He, Trump, is acting like a 6-year-old with a tantrum. I think that’s what we saw tonight.”

Woodward added, “I also think this committee has done kind of the equivalent of what happened in the famous Army-McCarthy hearing when Joe McCarthy was accused by a lawyer in a very memorable way saying you have — do you have no shame,” Woodward said. “This committee has essentially said to Donald Trump, do you have no shame?”

This has been/never was probably said the same thing about Mueller’s testimony over the Russian hoax.

Guess he didn’t want to talk about how Trump authorized 20K national guard troops for the capital but Capital Police, Sargeant at Arms and Pelosi declined protection because they were concerned with Optics.

He didn’t talk about capital police armour and other police gear that was stored 2 blocks away that they didn’t bother to retrieve.

So how many more “episodes” are there of the “Jan 6 Committee” show? What were the overnight ratings? Did it beat the ratings for an episode “The Beverly Hillbillies” on Nick at Nite?

So the J6-ers were threatened, you say Trump motivated you or you can spend 10 yrs in Federal Prison.

They were coerced.

If BLM and Antifa did the same thing in DC we would have not heard another word about it. They would have also left everything in flames. Still no arrests.

That show jumped the shark before it even aired.

I know this over produced TV show was a giant dud because npr isn’t talking about it this morning. I imagine the deep state is going to get the violence going as a last resort before mid terms....or grid failures....or monkey pox....or.... It’s going to get ugly, folks.

I missed the part of the hearing that talked about how inflation surged to 8.6%.

Ok, you caught me, I missed all the parts.

So did most people.

But this does present a question. Do I care less about January 6th or Covid? So hard to answer that one.

Did anyone expect this idiot to say the opposite ? If he did say something opposite, he would be admitting he was an idiot.

Woodward was a naval intelligence officer who briefed Gen. Al Haig at the White House. Both later lied about their connection. Watergate was about removing Nixon from power to pave the way forward for G. H. W. Bush. Woodward has always been a CIA company man.

He talks like Forest Gump and sounds like an ignoramus.
Him and Bernstein have spent the last decade minimizing their own work and calling everything “worse than Watergate.”

Brought to you by the same people who thought the Mueller investigation was truly brilliant.

And the same idiots will fall for it.
