The House Select Committee investigating the January 6th insurrection, and Donald Trump’s role in instigating it, is hitting on all cylinders. The opening session disclosed never before seen video of the Capitol Hill riots. And the second day of hearings further confirmed that Trump was fully aware that his “Big Lie”<\/em> about the election being “rigged”<\/em> and “stolen”<\/em> from him were – in his own Attorney General’s words – “Bullshit!”<\/em><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

However, in addition to the mountains of evidence of Trump’s purposeful deceptions intended to overturn the election and undermine democracy, testimony was given that exposed his flagrant grifting and calculated campaign to ripoff his gullible and glassy-eyed disciples.

Trump was also found to be stealing donor campaign funds to pay his legal bills<\/a><\/strong>.

It was also disclosed that “Trump sent millions of fundraising emails, sometimes as many as 25 a day,”<\/em> to his cult followers begging for money to finance his “Official Election Defense Fund,”<\/em> which, as it turns out, never existed. He raised more than $250 million via this scam operation.<\/p>\n
