John --
Tucker Carlson is dangerous -- and I don't throw that word around
lightly.
Here's a man who promotes the patently false claims that the FBI
was behind the January 6th Capitol attacks and that those who
ransacked the Capitol were only trying to defend the Constitution.
His latest special is pure 1/6 Denialism and glorifies the traitorous,
disgusting events of that day. Don't bother watching -- it will make
you sick.
These claims don't come from a deranged or foolish man. He knows
exactly what he's doing: manipulating and exploiting his
viewers for his own enrichment. He has the drug they crave and deals
it every night -- regardless of how it's tearing our families,
friendships, and country apart. It's plain evil, and shouldn't be on
the air.
I sat down with S.E. Cupp for a Rolling Stone interview
that was published this week, and I think you'll enjoy it:
Tucker Carlson Is a ‘Manipulative Son of a
*****’ — and Other Thoughts from Adam Kinzinger
I’m also alarmed by what I heard happened last night at the Trump
Doral resort. The House Republicans, led by Kevin McCarthy, hosted a
large fundraising gala with the former President as guest of honor.
Trump used the opportunity to push the "Big Lie" and claimed the real
insurrection happened on Election Day, not January 6th. This was said
to a room filled with my colleagues, who themselves were barricading
the House floor on January 6th. And yet these lies were met with
applause. It's just shameful.
Our country and its parties won't heal until we elect leaders who
aren't afraid of proven, durable,
and bipartisan solutions. We need leaders throughout
our government who aren't afraid to put country over party. As we can
see, the current path of "win at all costs" politics isn't sustainable
-- everyone loses.
Fortunately, we're already on the hunt for great primary
challengers who espouse Country over Party values, and I will not rest
until the existential threat to our republic has been abated.
I know I'm not alone. Our movement continues to grow and flourish,
with thousands of new members and volunteers signing up every week.
This growth would be impossible without YOU -- so thank you sincerely
for everything you do to bring this movement to life.
Country First,
Adam

Committee Weekly Digest
Country First presents the next edition of The Weekly Digest to
highlight the important work of the January 6th Select Committee. Each
week that the committee makes news, we’ll provide a recap on the its
work to make sure you’re up to date.
Here are the major developments from this past week:
Federal judge denies Trump's attempt
to withhold records from January 6th Committee
The ruling Tuesday
night from Judge Tanya
Chutkan of the US District Court in DC is a blow to
Trump's efforts to keep more than 700 pages of records from his White
House secret -- though his legal team has informed the court it
intends to appeal.
As of now, the National Archives
remains on track to turn over to the House a number of documents on
Friday, including White House call logs, video logs and schedules
related to January 6 as well as three pages of handwritten notes from
Trump's then-chief of staff. The outcome in court also could help the
House in its pursuit of more information from those around Trump,
including witnesses who've been subpoenaed and haven't spoken to the
committee yet.
January 6th Committee issues 10 new
subpoenas
The committee announced
on Tuesday a new batch of 10 subpoenas to former White House officials
under President Donald Trump, as the panel charges ahead in seeking
testimony and documents from witnesses relevant to its probe.
The subpoenas follow six
others that were announced Monday. Tuesday's recipients
are being asked to turn over documents to the committee on November
23, and depositions are scheduled throughout December. They are:
- Nicholas Luna, former President Donald Trump's personal
assistant
- Molly Michael, Trump's special assistant to the President and Oval
Office operations coordinator
- Ben Williamson, Trump's deputy assistant to the President and
senior adviser to then-chief of staff Mark Meadows
- Christopher Liddell, former Trump White House deputy chief of
staff
- John McEntee, Trump's White House personnel director
- Keith Kellogg, national security adviser to then-Vice President
Mike Pence
- Kayleigh McEnany, former White House press secretary under
Trump
- Stephen Miller, Trump senior adviser
- Cassidy Hutchinson, special assistant to the President for
legislative affairs
- Kenneth Klukowski, former senior counsel to Assistant Attorney
General Jeffrey Clark.
These new subpoenas build on efforts
by the committee to reach more senior leadership within the Trump
White House and target some former rank-and-file White House officials
who had close relationships with Trump.
Other news that may be of
interest:
- The Washington Post published an in-depth
investigation of the events before, during, and after the
January 6th attack.
- Seven people that attended the rally before the insurrection
at the Capitol were voted
into public office this week.
- More than 150 people have been interviewed by the January 6
committee, Rep. Liz Cheney confirms.
Country First is proud to release The Weekly Digest with important
