Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I know there are some other attorneys on this board. I'd like them to chime in here.
Looking at the depositions/interviews of witnesses before the J6 Select Committee, two notable absences stand out to me: (1) Dennis Montgomery; and (2) Lin Wood.
Starting with Lin, they ask Byrne about his meeting at Tomotley. They ask Powell about the meeting at Tomotley. They ask Flynn about the meeting at Tomotley. But they never subpoena the guy that organized and hosted the meeting. More than odd.
Same thing with Montgomery. They ask Byrne about Montgomery and Hammer and Scorecard. They ask Powell about Montgomery and Hammer and Scorecard. They ask Flynn about Montgomery and Hammer and Scorecard. But you know who they don't subpoena? Montgomery. And they don't subpoena his data. I don't think they wanted to hear what he had to say, nor did they want to have to face up to his data.
What do others make of this?
I am not a lawyer, though my gut told me they didn't want to have Hammer & Scorecard even be able to be admitted as evidence by allowing its creator to be questioned. Maybe my speculation is unfounded
