Strangely, big government and the media have been silent about this lately

It has to be burning the uniparty up that their little make believe narrative just got blown to shite. They are the masters of deception but good luck trying to spin this now

We’re witnessing a true insurrection in Afghanistan. January 6th was child’s play compared to this actual violent political uprising.

God bless the brave men and women who stormed that corrupt shithole on January 6th, triggering the holy hell out of gender benders everywhere.

The Jan 6th witch hunt vanished as a national story a couple days after the crying cop episode.

I suspect polling was going the wrong way so they dropped it.

It’s in the same discard pile as white supremacist hate crimes against asian americans.

It may have gone quiet in the National media but I suspect that’s because of things like the backlash over revelations regarding people still being held in prison and reports of how they were being treated. Take it out of the National media and few people paying attention and they can do what they want.

Dem senator asks Jan. 6 commission to probe links between dark money groups and Capitol attack
quote:

August 15, 2021



quote:

Linking the January 6 assault on the U.S. Capitol with a protracted effort by secretive right-wing groups and wealthy GOP contributors, Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse on Friday called for investigating dark money organizations and influential donors who allegedly organized and funded the deadly attack in a failed bid to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election. "The attack on the Capitol on January 6 was the culmination of a monthslong disinformation campaign designed to allow President [Donald] Trump to remain in office," Whitehouse (D-R.I.) wrote in a letter (pdf) to Sen. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), chair of the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol, also known as the commission.


quote:

Dark money groups linked to the January 6 rally include Women for America First; America First Policies; and Rule of Law Defense Fund (RLDF), an arm of the Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA) that sent out robocalls urging Trump supporters to "stop the steal"—a baseless slogan referring to the so-called "Big Lie" that the 2020 presidential election was fraudulent. "Many of these same groups were involved in planning and organizing President Trump's 'Save America Rally' on January 6," Whitehouse wrote in his letter. "These groups obtained permits, provided funding and equipment, and actively recruited participants."


quote:

Whitehouse wrote that "there is evidence that members of Congress were also involved in orchestrating the 'Save America Rally.' Three members of the House of Representatives have been identified as alleged co-architects: Reps. Andy Biggs [R-Ariz.], Paul Gosar [R-Ariz.], and Mo Brooks [R-Ala.]." "These representatives coordinated with other congressmen to object to the electoral count that day," Whitehouse continued. "It is unclear to what extent those other members were also aware of or involved in the plans for the rally." "Clearly, it was in the interests of the attackers to have members keep the balloting open," the senator added, "and I have asked the Senate Ethics Committee to examine whether there was coordination—direct or indirect—between Senate objectors and those involved in the attack on the Capitol."

August 16, 2021 - 07:08 PM EDT Pelosi suggests Jan. 6 panel could investigate Jordan and Banks

quote:

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) indicated in an interview released on Monday that the two Republicans she rejected to serve on the select committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection could be scrutinized as part of its work. During an interview with The 19th News, Pelosi said that she vetoed Republican Reps. Jim Banks (Ind.) and Jim Jordan (Ohio) from serving on the committee because she thought they were "outrageous" and "not serious."


quote:

There would be antics and clowns and not serious about this and still participants in the big lie," Pelosi said, referring to former President Trump's false claims that the election was stolen from him. "I didn't really care if they had voted to accept the results of the election or not. All I wanted them to be is willing to seek the truth."

the defense lawyers of these people should subpoena and fund forensic election audits in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Nevada and Michigan as part of the defense strategy. If the audits show trump won those states then January 6th turns from insurrection to victory party. Charges evaporate (at least the big political ones—trespass May remain, but that’s not a worry).

Jan 6 wasn’t an insurrection.
It also wasn’t a peaceful protest.

this is the truth. both sides are lying trying to make the other side look worse

it became a violent mob event, possible riot, with thousands of minor crimes going on. at best, it disrupted a ceremonial action of our government. if that's an "insurrection," then almost any protest can be defined as one.

Pelosi complaining about antics and clowns is darkly hilarious considering the people she put on there, starting with Bennie Thompson (D-Jafrica, MS)
