Sen. Cynthia A Johnson of MI Disrupted Hearings in Michigan BUT WHY? Some Thoughts About Her Actions
https://pointingoutpoliticians.com/michigan-senator-cynthia-a-johnson-ballot-hearings/
The Michigan Senate held hearings regarding the possibility of fraudulent activities during the counting of the ballots in that state. Senator Cynthia A. Johnson was disruptive during the proceedings while Hima Kolanagireddy was offering her testimony. It was supposed to be an opportunity for witnesses who had signed sworn affidavits to offer testimony as to what they had witnessed. Sounds simple enough doesn't it?
Actually, something that was supposed to be simple turned into a process that was much more difficult than it needed to be. That happens a lot in politics. Usually it's because one or both sides refuses to engage in a straightforward way OR they have a different agenda OR they simply don't understand the process in the first place. I think we see a little bit of all of that in this video.
A senate hearing is defined as a meeting or session of a Senate, House, joint, or special committee of Congress, usually open to the public, to obtain information and opinions on proposed legislation, conduct an investigation, or evaluate/oversee the activities of a government department or the implementation of a Federal law. Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Attorney Jenna Ellis were granted the hearing by the Michigan Senate.
In this case, the focus of the senate hearing was investigation. Investigation into the happenings during the ballot counting operation. Cynthia A. Johnson must have missed that. Or, did Senator Johnson simply ignore that because of some other reason?
An odd moment was when she talked about "allegations". She said it as if it was a bad thing. On the contrary, an allegation is simply a claim or assertion that someone has done something illegal or wrong, typically one made without proof. Is that a bad thing?
To put it into better context, a person who had been a victim of a violent crime (and lived) might make an allegation to that fact. So, let's just say the attacker came from behind and the victim could not identify them. Would that mean the crime never occurred? Or, would that mean we should hear them out? From there we could look at the specific evidence, circumstantial evidence, and even the sheer number of witness testimonies to come to the conclusion as to whether or not we should investigate the alleged crime further.
That's how we get to the bottom of things.
In the land of legalities, there will always be those who care more about their agenda that whether the truth is ever revealed. We see it all the time in court where one side knows the others side is valid but doesn't care, they just want to win the case.
But this wasn't a court case, it was a hearing.
So, as often is the case, a person with an opposing viewpoint might go in another direction that is all too common. They seek to silence voices that offer an opposing view or narrative. That's what Senator Cynthia A. Johnson did. She didn't want these witnesses to be heard. She wanted them silenced.
When Hima Kolanagireddy, an Indian American witness was trying to speak, Senato Johnson complained. What's interesting to note is her reasons for complaining.
1. She spoke about witnesses "sharing and speaking and speaking...". That alone gives you an idea of her opinions about free speech. Senator Johnson made sure to mention that the world was watching. Almost sounds as if she doesn't like the idea of the world knowing what Hima had to say.
2. Senator Johnson complained about those giving testimony not being under oath. That's not how a senate hearing is conducted in Michigan. You would think that, as a senator, Cynthia A. Johnson might know that. That is compounded by the fact that those giving testimony had signed sworn affidavits under penalty of perjury.
In any case, this gives you a little insight into some of the political buffoonery that goes on in the United States of America. It also gives you a little insight into the mindset of Senator Cynthia A Johnson, Democrat from Detroit, Michigan.
In any case, these are trying times for all involved. It helps when we all come from a place (or at least try) of logic and reason. When it becomes overly emotional, it becomes a lot more difficult to get things done.
