this committee? well, don, mark short and witnesses like him may be the committee s most realistic chance to get a firsthand full and truthful account of what was happening in those key days and meetings leading up to january 6th and what was happening on january 6th, what it was like to be side by side with mike pence when he was getting ushered out of the senate chamber as that mob attacked. so i think mark short is going to be a crucial witness here. the committee has put a lot of focus on its battles with bannon and jeffrey clark and soon probably michael flynn and roger stone, but let s be realistic here. those people are never going to testify fully and truthfully. it s going to have to fall to people like mark short to tell us the real story here. charlie short is a key figure working with the committee. there are so many others who are stone walling, exerting executive privilege or pleeadin the fifth. how important do you think this testimony will be in getting to the truth
