1ºAfter multiple recounts, no evidence, and 61 failed lawsuits lost in humiating fashion - I could never grasp how anyone could say the US 2020 election was rigged or stolen. I thought it to be an absurd belief, delusional, at best. BUT -- today, came the revelation that the Trump White House was also pursuing a theory that Italian military satellites could have changed votes in our election.
I spend a lot of time in Italy, and I am finally convinced. Not that the US 2020 election was stolen -- it wasn't.
But rather, that the Trump Cult has officially reached Wacky Level 78, which ties the world record previously reached by the Three Stooges in 1924.
2ºCanadian here. Really none of my business but why would you keep electing officials who are actively and openly trying to destroy your democracy. If Putin himself was able to install his own people in your government, they would probably act exactly as these Republicans do. I fear that your time is running out to send a message as they have already sewn the seed that elections aren't valid unless their side wins. If they get back in power they will surely continue down this path at an ever-accelerating rate until there are no elections or the President is picked like Putin.
I am neither a Conservative or Liberal, just someone who thinks you should put your country ahead of your politics while you still can.
3ºreally CNN......is that the context you are putting this??? agree? you think this is a matter of agreeing. that means that there was a chance that they could talk it out and the the truth would win out. no. you don't put it like that and give the GOP the benefit of the doubt. they are flat out lying to convince their voters there was no conspiracy. that there was no treason. that there was no attempted overthrow of congress......the government. there was and is no chance that they will stop lying. they should all be tried for conspiracy and throw into jail or worse.
4ºMitch himself said 1/6/21 was terrorism. Will any of these insurrectionists catch any terrorism charges? Or even conspiracy charges? Yes, here they come.
Every Capitol insurrectionist should be charged with accessory to or "felony" murder, among the other charges.
Including trump.
MAGA ATTACKED OUR CAPITOL!
MAGA should be designated as a domestic terrorist organization immediately and treated as such.
Every word trump says now about the election is simply FURTHER incitement to his mob of insurrectionists. FURTHER seditious treason.
Accountability is the only answer.
Can ANYONE imagine what would have happened if that mob had found pence? What do you think secret service(carrying the nuclear football) would have done? Do you think they HEARD that mob chanting "hang Mike pence"?
Would that massacre have been Justified? hell yeah....Or maybe the mob overwhelms them after they run out of ammo. Who knows?
The restraint from deadly force by police was actually astounding.
Capitol insurrection recreated by cellphone footage of the insurrectionists, taken by the insurrectionists themselves and posted online mostly.

5ºthe only thing wrong with the so called "insurrection" is that it wasn't an insurrection. But it was distorted by the media and these pro American protestors are now being made out to be criminals and terrorists. they should have either stayed home or they should have been fully armed. we all know had they been fully armed they could have seized the capital, marched every democrat out on the balcony, and held trial right then and there. But they weren't armed with anything except flags. if the patriots want to "take back" the country they will have to do it like George Washington did and do it by force. otherwise they should just sit back and watch the country dissolve and at least enjoy as much of the rest of their lives as possible.
6ºProbably because reports are now coming forward that the FBI had agents in with the “ insurrectionist” groups. And, that the most aggressive agitators of 1/6 are “ Unindicted co-conspirator‘s”. With their names left out of the court documents. This leads to the belief that the most aggressive, May actually have been Fed agents.
(Why do we not know the name of the capital police officer who shot an unarmed woman?)
The lead FBI agent for 1/6 is the same agent who formerly headed the Wisconsin governor “kidnap“ investigation, which also had FBI agents inserted in with the “Militia group“
and, who said the the militia group Had no intention of kidnapping. That it was an agent who suggested the Scheme
7ºJust checking...GOP does not support police (voted against honoring them), law and order (1.6.2021), defend the insurrection, does believe in democracy ( voter suppression, 2020 election scam, vote against voter protection, actually stating they don't believe in majority rule), small government ( passing laws controlling what is taught in school, pass laws to restrict disabled voters, passed laws to restrict freedom of speech and assembly,) vote against stimulus checks but take credit when it passes, oppose helding those who need help but always give a hand out to those who don't need it, talk badly about their constituency and completely ignore what the people want...good grief..
