If someone broke into your place of business and disrupted your routine ranting like a psycho would he be some sort of martyr? Maybe some sort of misunderstood lost soul? How about someone who broke into your house? Martyr or criminal? I have to go with criminal.



I do. Have lived in America for 70 years now and at no time in the history of presidential elections did we have a president who lost call for his supporters to "go to the capital and fight like hell."

If they weren't happy with the results, they either excepted them and moved on, or they challenged things in court, excepted what the courts said and then moved on.

Not Trump. He and some of his supporters thought they could overthrow the government and install him as a dictator. He didn't want four more years. He wanted his lifetime to be spent in the Whitehouse where he would reign as a dictator.

The people who actually supported this were religious lunatics and white nationalists who figured they could use him to further their wacko goals to push this country back in time to where they would pass all sorts of crazy, insane, bullshit laws to have everyone goose step to their own delusional ideas of how things should be.

Didn't work, thank God. They all need to be held accountable for their actions on that day. Each and every single one of them.

Before Trump we never had one half of the bullshit madness we have going on now. The big question is who is really behind it all?

It was actually bombed like 40 years ago. Burned to the ground once. DC isn't even a part of America. Which is part of the reason they can still get away with this witch hunt.

How about the Jan 6 "bomber". When Jail?
 
If they weren't happy with the results, they either excepted them and moved on, or they challenged things in court, excepted what the courts said and then moved on.
You mean accept it like how the democrats did when Trump got elected? (keep in mind that they rioted in DC the day he was inaugurated)
 
Just the leading narrative to get out and front because the have ZERO things to actually bring even a charade of a charge.

Not going to mention evidence, but after watching Garland being questioned by congress yesterday I don't think he may have what it takes to deal with the fallout that could come with charging Trump.
 
From the link:

Former President Donald Trump is claiming absolute immunity from any accountability for the speech he made at the Ellipse on Jan. 6, 2021, in which he called on the crowd to march to the Capitol.

The House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on Congress and the attempt to overthrow the 2020 election called witnesses that revealed Trump knew that his supporters were armed and told the Secret Service to remove the metal detectors because they weren't there to hurt him. Trump even made the call to the Secret Service from the podium to let people in, regardless of what they were carrying.

In a new court filing, the Justice Department says that former President Trump can be sued by U.S. Capitol Police over the January 6 insurrection. The brief states that Trump does not have absolute immunity from multiple civil lawsuits seeking to hold him liable for damages stemming from the Jan. 6 riot. NBC’s Ken Dilanian reports.

Jan. 6 footage shows Capitol cops escorting QAnon Shaman to Senate floor​

By Miranda Devine
March 6, 2023

Newly revealed surveillance footage from Jan. 6, 2021, shows two Capitol police officers escorting Jacob Chansley, the be-horned so-called “QAnon Shaman” who has come to symbolize the riot, through the halls of the Capitol and to the very door of the US Senate.

The footage aired on Tucker Carlson’s Fox News show Monday night shows the officers closely following Chansley as he wanders the corridors of the Capitol, bare-chested and wearing face paint and a luxuriant fur hat with Viking horns.

“Virtually every moment of his time inside the Capitol was caught on tape,” says Carlson, who was granted exclusive access by Speaker Kevin McCarthy to 40,000 hours of surveillance footage from that day inside and around the Capitol, which has never been seen before by the public.

“The tapes show the Capitol police never stopped Jacob Chansley. They helped him. They acted as his tour guides.”

"Congratulations to Tucker Carlson on one of the biggest “scoops” as a reporter in U.S. history. The New Surveillance Footage of the January 6th Events sheds an entirely different light on what actually happened. The Unselect Committee was a giant SCAM, and has now unequivocally been stamped as CRIMINAL FABRICATORS OF THIS MOST IMPORTANT DAY. Pelosi & McConnell failed on security. The Police story is sad and difficult to watch. “Trump” and most others are totally innocent, LET THEM GO FREE, NOW!"



Great courage shown by Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy in releasing the surveillance footage to Tucker Carlson so that our Country, and indeed the World, can see what really went on during the January 6th events. A whole new, and completely opposite, picture has now been indelibly painted. The Unselect Committee LIED, and should be prosecuted for their actions. Nancy & Mitch were a disaster on Security. Thank you Kevin and Tucker. FREE AT LAST!!!

 
Republican Congressman Mike Collins has called for the release of those arrested in connection with the January 6 attack after Fox News' Tucker Carlson aired new footage from the riots at the U.S. Capitol in 2021.

That was obvious like 2 days later. The Senate floor was vacant because the real ringleaders (Piglosi) knew it was coming and then they let those 3-4 yahoos on the floor of the senate.
 
Uh oh! Looks like UpChuck Shoomer is pissed!

He says, how dare the American people be permitted to actually see what went on in the Capitol on Jan 6th. Lol lol lol

DAVID MARCUS: The $3M, two-year January 6th committee was destroyed by a single devastating cable news segment - because the left was never interested in truth. They just wanted revenge​

By DAVID MARCUS FOR DAILYMAIL.COM
PUBLISHED: 15:13 EST, 7 March 2023

Over the course of two years, hundreds of witness interviews, and 10 highly choreographed public hearings, Democrats in Congress sought to create a carefully constructed story of the January 6th Capitol Hill riots.

How fitting that such an extravagant outlay of government resources would be thrown on the trash heap by a single cable news segment.

On Monday night, Fox News' Tucker Carlson played never-before-seen footage of the Capitol riot. The closed-circuit security tape appears to show the notorious, so-called QAnon Shaman (a.k.a. Jacob Chansley) being led through the halls of Congress by police.

The video has no audio, so we can't hear what the police told Chansley. But we can see with our own eyes - Chansley didn't overpower anyone.

In fact, it looks like Capitol Police willingly guided him, shirtless and adorned in horns, into the Senate chamber for his infamous photo-op.

So, for all the effort and expense poured into the January 6th committee, why is America only seeing this footage now?

The answer is obvious. It didn't fit the Democrats' narrative, so it was left out.

Democrats, aided by two virulently anti-Trump Republicans, sought to portray January 6th as an insurrection – inspired, led, and directed by Donald Trump.

They recruited a former top news executive to build the drama. Democrat-allied media compelled millions of Americans to watch. And it all cost the U.S. taxpayer more than $3.3 million dollars.

But it was easily undermined because it was all so obviously, blatantly disingenuous.

The R's are not happy................

Republicans have been pressed on their reactions to Tucker Carlson’s inaccurate portrayal of the insurrection on January 6, 2021 as peaceful, with many criticizing his mischaracterization of the violent attack on the Capitol.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy handed over more than 40,000 hours of surveillance footage from the attack, allowing the Fox News host to cherry-pick moments from the siege on Congress by Trump supporters to pretend that they were simply “orderly and meek” sightseers.

“I think it’s bulls***,” Republican North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis told reporters, according to Rolling Stone. “I was here. I was down there and I saw maybe a few tourists, a few people who got caught up in things. But when you see police barricades breached, when you see police officers assaulted, all of that … if you were just a tourist you should’ve probably lined up at the visitors’ center and came in on an orderly basis.”

Frank F has something to say about the situation..................

The footage aired on Fox from Jan. 6, 2021, is being called "the next big lie," according to former FBI official Frank Figliuzzi, who was the assistant director for counterintelligence and now host a podcast called "The Bureau."

Claiming it was a "documentary," Tucker Carlson showed selectively edited video of the U.S. Capitol before the attack attempting to prove that nothing happened on Jan. 6, and imply it was a "false flag."

It was something that Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) compared to the calm before the storm on Sept. 11, 2001, said Figliuzzi.

"To say that 1/6 was 'mostly peaceful' is like saying that Flight 11 on 9/11 was mostly peaceful … until it crashed into the World Trade Center," tweeted Goldman.

Federal Judge gives Jan 6 insurrectionist the BAD NEWS he deserves​

Mar 7, 2023


Michael Popok of LegalAF reporting on one of the first cases in which a federal judge has denied a Jan 6 defendant a request for a delay in a trial to review any more of the 44,000 hours of video footage Speaker McCarthy is making available to help them. 10:15
 
their reactions to Tucker Carlson’s inaccurate portrayal of the insurrection on January 6, 2021
Oh there was an attack on the Capitol. That isn't what Tucker is saying. It's the "Who did the attacking" that isn't being discussed. Plenty of proof that Antifa goons were dressed as Trump supporters doing the 'attacking', which then begs the question "How did they know in advance to dress as Trump supporters?"

SOMEONE told them and it was all planned out in advance!

All Tucker did was show videos of the alleged leader being escorted around by police. He was no more 'the leader' than you or I were.

He did make a great photo op on the evening news however!

That's the 'misinformation' the congress critters are portraying as fact. They're 'keeping to the story' that it was an insurrection, when it was not.

Unless of course, you want to examine who did the planning ahead of time... then yeah, that was "the insurrection".
