quote WASHINGTON — A federal appeals court ruled Thursday that former President Donald Trump cannot prevent the House Jan. 6 committee from getting hundreds of documents that were created when he was in the White House. A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia ruled that although Trump retained some authority to claim executive privilege, it was not strong enough to overcome President Joe Biden's decision that Congress has a legitimate need for the material. "The executive privilege for presidential communications is a qualified one that Mr. Trump agrees must give way when necessary to protect overriding interests. The president and the legislative branch have shown a national interest in and pressing need for the prompt disclosure of these documents," Judge Patricia Millett wrote for the court. Trump's lawyers are likely to file an emergency appeal with the Supreme Court to block the release. The court put a 14-day hold on its own ruling to give his lawyers time to pursue an appeal. The appeals court said Trump could not show any specific harm that he would suffer from the disclosure of the documents. Millett closed her ruling by quoting a remark attributed to Benjamin Franklin that we have a “Republic, if [we] can keep it.” “The events of January 6th exposed the fragility of those democratic institutions and traditions that we had perhaps come to take for granted,” she wrote. “In response, the President of the United States and Congress have each made the judgment that access to this subset of presidential communication records is necessary to address a matter of great constitutional moment for the Republic.” . . .

That's already about half of the text that's there to read. It's prefaced with a video report from perennial NBC News correspondent Pete Williams that runs for 3 minutes and 30 seconds.

Worth a reminder:

"Prior to entering the Capitol building, Sullivan can be seen using a microphone to address the crowd outside and yelling "we about to burn this s**t down" before leading the crowd in a chant of "it's time for a revolution," FBI Special Agent Matthew Foulger said in an affidavit.


As the mob pushed through barricades towards the Capitol, Sullivan was heard shouting: "We accomplished this s**t. We did this together. F**k yeah! We are all a part of this history," and "Let's burn this s**t down."

Following the attack, Sullivan gave a number of media interviews including to CNN and ABC's Good Morning America where he discussed being inside the Capitol during the attempted siege.

Speaking to Rolling Stone, Sullivan said: "I was worried about people recognizing me and thinking that I was Antifa or, like, BLM or whatever.

“As I detailed several weeks ago, so many of the most harrowing and widespread media claims about the January 6 riot proved to be total fabrications.

A pro-Trump mob did not bash Office Brian Sicknick’s skull in with a fire extinguisher.

No protester brought zip-ties with them as some premeditated plot to kidnap members of Congress (two rioters found them on a table inside).

There’s no evidence anyone intended to assassinate Mike Pence, Mitt Romney or anyone else.



Yet the maximalist narrative of an attempted coup or armed insurrection is so crucial to Democrats — regardless of whether it is true — that pointing out these facts deeply infuriates them.”

…


““Ultimately, if this “armed insurrection” and threat of domestic terrorism are so grave, why do media figures and politicians in both parties — from Adam Schiff to Liz Cheney — keep lying about it and peddling fictions?

Politicians and media figures do that only when they know that the threat, in reality, is not nearly as menacing as they need it to be to fulfill their objectives of political gain and coercive power..”
