Step aside, Tom “Maverick” Cruise. Your movie about jet jockeys has raked in a colossal hoard of money and kept struggling movie theaters afloat, but the real blockbuster of this summer has been the House Jan. 6 committee hearings.
Starring Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney, one of the few Republicans left with a moral center, and a stream of ex-White House aides who found their backbones and testified to the truth, the riveting series of hearings that climaxed on Thursday night presented a comprehensive indictment of Donald Trump’s betrayal of his country.
The evidence of the former president’s guilt was provided largely by Trump loyalists who stuck with him up to the day he unleashed a mob to attack the United States Capitol and ignored the pleas of his staff and family to call off the violence. That makes assertions of partisan bias in the committee’s investigation ring utterly hollow and purely cynical.
