Race war? Good lord.

Yep, only one person in here trying to make January 6 about race.
The really indefensible part is, they were protesting an imaginary stolen election, and after beating police and smashing the Capitol building, they were all escorted out politely. I'm surprised they weren't given a hot towel.
Again, what they were protesting didn't exist!! Do they really get full credit for being peaceful protestors? What if they were there to protest Santa Claus
?

Unless you can back it up, will you please stop with this ridiculous over the top hyperbole against the left.

there is a slight difference between an observation that maybe the left focuses on race too much or the media does vs beating the drum for a "race war"
Unless you can back it up, will you please stop with this ridiculous over the top hyperbole against the left.
there is a big difference between that maybe Trump talks about election fraud too much vs. instigating a riot to overthrow the government.

Would you like to compare notes on what Trump said ahead of 1/6 vs what leading Dems (let's say any of the Presidential candidates) said about BLM before this summer's events?
You can go first. Take as long as you like.

I’d like some Al Gore 2000 notes as well since that was brought up as some weak comparison.

Did anyone see the deep state report on 60 MInutes? Wondering if anyone is taking issue with the fact that everything in that segment was a completely fabricated narrative trying to derail the reality that just a handful of people were there causing trouble and that there were no coordinated efforts to disrupt the electoral process.

Trump maybe talks about election fraud too much? Good lord. He lied for two months after the election about it being stolen from him and whipped his gullible flock into a frenzy. The President of the United States did that. Actively tried to undermine the most important pillar of democracy.
"maybe talked about election fraud too much". oof.

Am I reading the bolded correctly? Is Trump's lawyer essentially arguing that only really stupid people would have ever actually believed what they were arguing so they shouldn't be held accountable for it?

This is the same defense that Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones tried in cases against them. No reasonable person would believe this nonsense, so it can't be defamation.

You would think a licensed attorney would have a higher standard. At the very least it’s an ethical violation. Both Powell and Wood should face disciplinary proceedings, if not suspension and/or disbarment.

Amy Klobuchar is one of the highest ranking Democrats in Congress and on several of the most prominent committees. She's not a 2024 DNC ticket favorite, but she is a legitimate DNC POTUS candidate, as she was in the 2020 cycle.
She, along with Elizabeth Warren, had doubts about Dominion and wanted the same answers as many Republicans do now - Transparency in who has invested in Dominion and a deep dive into overall election security, audit and review.
Do you believe anyone is laughing at Amy Klobuchar and Elizabeth Warren right now?
If so, who then?

Who'd have thought that a lawyer who referred to herself as "The Kracken" would be full of B.S.? All time great money grab from that Trump outfit.

You imply that dominion is singled out here; that’s not the case. They are asking form more transparency from private firms.GordonGekko said:
“In their latest letters, the lawmakers asked the private equity firms to provide the disclosure documents and information required under the Stop Wall Street Looting Act, and to explain their role in the election technology industry by December 20, 2019.”
The article points to many areas with conflicts of interest, including medical, prisons, and other services. Do you even read the articles you link? Seems like you often misinterpret what is being presented, and you sound very sure of yourself in those interpretations. Even the paragraph you cut/paste doesn’t somehow implicate dominion as doing anything Trump/Powell/pillow allege, which is change votes from trump to Biden. It is clear that they lied.

That wasn't an insurrection though. That guy was using the term improperly. It was a peaceful, legal protest where 0.01% of people got out of hand, and that small handful was egged on by Anifa, not the POTUS.

It's literally in your face. It's not some remixed narrative from some other source, it's literally coming directly from Elizabeth Warren through her government portal.
Did you really try to create a soft landing for what Warren and Klobucar call a serious threat to our nation's voting systems? They are saying something is wrong with Dominion and you decide they aren't actually saying that at all.
And why did the DNC send Klobuchar to do this in the first place? Because it wasn't a stone cold lock that Biden would prevail in the election and they wanted a basis to challenge for themselves later.
But, hey, it's (D)ifferent right?
I'm not here to convince you. Plenty of moderates and undecideds will be driven away by your predictable tactics. They'll pay attention to the two sets of rules in play. One for DNC favorites protected by the leftist MSM and everyone else who are cannon fodder and targets. (Kamala can have weed and brag about it, but no one else can survive a purity test for Mary Jane) More of the same from you:
It never happened
If it happened, you don't have proof
If you have proof, it's not that serious
If it's serious, it wasn't that widespread
If it's widespread, Trump did it first
If Trump didn't do it first, you only see it this way because you are a bigoted racist liar
If none of the above work, I'm a victim from a hard life and I had too much cheap Trader's Joe wine.

It's gotta sting these incels quite a bit that antifa didn't show up. Their little costume army party got spoiled by a group that severely outfoxed them. Not that that's particularly hard to do. Wondering how many of these traitors graduated from HS?moleculo said:

I will never not find joy in Jan 6. stories like this one:
Michael Heinl requested that his wife not attend the rally before she breached the Capitol
Jennifer Heinl was one of the many rioters who was captured on camera during the Capitol riots on Jan. 6. But Heinl has more problems than just the legal ramifications of her acts that day. She’s the wife of Detective Michael Heinl, a Shaler Township police officer who works with the FBI’s Pittsburgh-area violent crimes task force.
Jennifer was charged with disorderly and disruptive conduct, violent entry on Capitol grounds, and more after the insurrection. But Jennifer was also served with divorce papers in February after Michael saw the pictures of her there with another man.

See, now I was told that all the trouble makers were just antifa and BLM dressed up as Promise Keepers and Proud Boys and despite the fact that for years we were told by the right that antifa and BLM were unemployed losers, they spent thousands and thousands of dollars at Cabello and Bass Pro to look like pretend army men so the world would THINK they were Trump supporters. Then, when they blended in with the ONLY PEACEFUL Trump supporters with their White Claws, Pabst, wasp spray and slingshots, they broke off from the peaceful people and invaded the Capitol, but only a few of them. Like, 3. 3 soi boi antifas dressed up like Proud Boys overtook the ineffectual Capitol police -who were CLEARLY at fault for reading Ziggy and not using bazookas - smashed some things, took selfies in Pelosi's office and made it look like it was more Trump supporters than it really was.This is clearly an example of a well executed deep fake.......again, no one but a handful were there to cause any trouble.

if it was family that turned them in. For realz, what kind of jerk do you have to be to where your family calls the FBI on you? I have some useless cousins and aunts and uncles I don't care if I see again, but if I saw them sharing video from inside the Capitol, I would still urgently text them , TAKE THAT DOWN, DUMMY!
These people were like, Oh, Cousin Delbert live streamed storming the Capitol? Let me just google my local FBI field office, screw that turd.

at the last several posts I’ve got a couple relatives I’d consider turning in and a Facebook friend that I wouldn’t be surprised if he was there. I don’t know how deep he got into things because he stopped posting publicly because he has a business. He did post during the summer protests that he was going to the area, would be heavily armed and hoping that someone gives him an excuse to use it.When I read these articles now, I'm a bit bored by the details of what they are charged with, but always quickly skim looking for the payoff that they were turned in by Facebook friends.

I think you mean Oath Keepers no? Anywho....we really can't fault the 5-10 who were there to start trouble. What are they to think when the full on military isn't standing outside telling them to behave and not act out? Did you know it's not a problem to try and rob a bank if there isn't sufficient security there to stop you?

Investigators say Loganbill owns a firearms store by the name of Tooth and Nail Armory in Gravois Mills, Mo.
Going to be hard to keep that gun shop as a felon.

Unsure if it is related, but there was just an incident at The Capitol

Barbed wire fencing that surrounded the Capitol complex for months after pro-Trump rioters stormed the building has since come down and thousands of the National Guard troops who were deployed in response to the insurrection have since returned home, though thousands still remain in Washington due to lingering security concerns.

Its being reported the suspect has also died. Per CNN:
Pittman said the suspect in the attack has also died. The suspect was not on the radar of the US Capitol Police before the attack, but the attack does not appear to be terrorism-related, police said in an afternoon briefing.

Maybe the easy answer will be right, but over the years a fair number of just plain crazy people have done stuff like this around the city. And the knife doesn't make much sense if someone was looking to do real damage or make a big political statement. Definitely worth a wait and see for now.
