100% it’s part of Trumps plan to pin the whole Capitol invasion on Rudy. ’My speech was perfect. Everybody says so. But Rudi (unknown to me!) said it should be Trial by Combat!! I fired him as soon as it was apparent. Very sad. Tremendously. Nothing do with me. No responsibility. Perfect.’

Those were OBVIOUSLY Antifa actors in there as plants, Bill, ACTING like racist, fascist assholes to make it SEEM like they were Trump supporters... Duh.

Would you care to share that evidence for critical review?

@RonD1120 Honest question - do you think what happened at the capitol last week was: 1 - justified / appropriate 2 - legal 3 - fake news / antifa setup 3 yes or no answers would be great, although any explanation of 'yes's' (is that a word?) would be appreciated.

I said the same to a friend just today. In a lot of values I'm pretty conservative. The Republican party doesn't represent conservative values anymore.

Not only the music, but I got the whole slow motion waving flag thing too!

You want to see what Ron’s ‘Patriots’ are saying? Amazon released a selection of Parler posts as an example of their lack of moderation on the platform. https://www.theverge.com/2021/1/13/22228675/amazon-parler-takedown-violent-threats-moderation-content-free-speech Calls to execute police. Teachers. Black and Jews - not just ‘liberal leadership’. Very fine folk, right? Let the healing begin! Unity for everyone! Fuck RIGHT off. The right wing government we’ve had has done more for extremism, racism and nationalism than any time since the rise of the Nazi party. And no, that’s not a fucking exaggeration. Every single Republican voter and politician should be saying ‘what we’ve been seeing lately from Trump supporters is unacceptable.’ It’s that simple. There is no whatabout-ism that’s REMOTELY comparable. It’s not an Antifa plot and you know it. It’s your side behaving like actual, real facists. And yet you won’t disown them. To try and pass the responsibility on makes you cowards and culpable in the outcome.

4 impeachment’s in US history. Trump accounts for 50% of them. winning.

Precisely.

If you storm the fucking Capitol there have to be consequences. If you support that action or incite it, there HAVE to be consequences. You don't get to try and overthrow democracy and just go 'Why won't you be friends?? I just want to move on together! You're so MEAN! waaaahhhhhhh'. Jesus. I've never seen such a bunch of whiners. And they call those on the left 'snowflakes'.... I thought the Republican party was all for personal responsibility? Letting it go is what will make a bad situation worse. There's a reason the policy of every major government and police force is not to negotiate with terrorists or blackmailers - they think they can get away with it and so they do it again and step it up the next time. So yes. Find those guilty. Make an example of them within the law, no matter how high or low they are in the political structure. Slap them all down as hard and fast as fucking possible. This is what the American Government does with insurrectionists, is going to be the message. We'd better make sure it's a good one.

So now you’re for sticking within procedures? What happened to ‘take your chances, it’s better than covid!’?

ewwww. There's a mental image I didn't 'kneed'. #dadjoke

Pence isn't going to invoke the 25th. I'd bet a testicle on it.

I thought he said he’d be around through Inauguration Day because he had a job to do?

I second this. The true wireless Quiet Comfort earbuds are awesome and super comfy.

Couldn't agree more.

It's a great speech, but they should stay away from the blacksmithing analogies. Lets not quench our democracy and make it brittle.

If they can do that while at the same time leaving it all up to the Dems so they don’t have to hang one of their own, so much the better, from their perspective. It needs doing, but once again most of the GOP will shirk any responsibility while benefiting from the outcome. Like I said before, they’re cowards.

After normiss calls out brent for being a waste of time, and say's he's out of the discussion: and now: Irony score through the roof. And absolutely typical of bullies of any stripe. Perfectly happy to dish it out but run away when the same tactics are used on them. This is one reason I want to see all these right wing assholes that have talked a big, tough game the last 4 years chased back into the darkest corners of the internet. To show that the 'libtards' aren't afraid of them, and that without Trump being in power there's no-one to enable their unacceptable bullshit any more.

That combined with jail time would be awesome

Not sure why these images are so large. I just attached them from my phone. Sorry folks!

Sing with me...
