Maybe he was talking about Antifa and the undercover feds.

Then he should have stated so.

Well, there WERE violent terrorists in/around the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Just not the ones folks assume he's talking about, and definitely not the ones the MSM is breathlessly beating the #MuhInsurrection drum about.

Meg twists operation trust 2.0 back to troll...
quote:

Meghan McCain told her co-hosts Monday on ABC’s “The View” that the rioters at Capitol Hill last week were “domestic terrorists,” adding they should be sent to the Guantanamo Bay, Cuba detention camp.

McCain said, “I just think we need to treat the domestic terrorists the way we do actual terrorists. I think we need to consider all the possibilities. I’m not against sending these people to Gitmo, That may sound extreme. These are domestic terrorists who attacked our own republic. They should be treated the same way we treat Al-Qaeda.”

If nothing I posted was untruthful, then we can ask if being truthful now is "full on bitch" b/c in that case, I am. I'll take that label for promoted factually correct information.


The mere fact that you felt the need to change “terrorist attack” to “riot” in your first post because you think you’re the only one that will notice that slight but very significant difference being that you’re a lawyer and therefore so much smarter than everyone else is untruthful.

And it does make you a full on bitch.

It was violent. I can't believe some people on here won't admit that. I mean a street fight is violent.


A terrorist attack.......not so much.

Citizens being labeled terrorist is horrible thing.

That pits the ruling party against the opposing political pundits.

That is dangerous for all.

Why can't both be violent riots?



Both? You're talking about one protest at the Capitol where the one fatality came at the hands of a police officer vs literally dozens of actual riots with buildings going up in flames and innocent people getting killed by mobs.

Trying to equate one to the other is absurd.

remember Ted's tent revival in the parking lot of the republican convention? Ted will run for President and he appeals to the cucks that still love the Cheney, Rubio and Romney's.

he will be the alternative to Nikki & Pence because he is half breed MAGA supposedly and the other half GOPe.

Are you arguing that anyone in the media has ever called *any* of the violence coming from BLM riots?

Try answering your own question...why not both?

Now, do every single BLM "protest" in every city in the country, going back to Obama's second term. Be sure and use the same criteria too.


No question that many of those qualify as well. There are unhinged morons on both ends of the political spectrum. Though I would point out that in many of the BLM "protests" the violence was to some extent taking advantage of the situation to commit pure vandalism and thievery.

“Violent, terrorist attack on the Capitol” is mostly wrong.

I didn't say terrorist. I said riot. Just to clarify.

The idiots in Washington need to be terrified of the people. They are supposed to work for us but don't - I'm glad they all got scared that day. I hope they never forget that feeling.

He's talking about the undercover FBI agents infiltrating peaceful protest, right? Thats something I'd consider a terrorist attack

What? I used the words on purpose. I've always called it a riot.

I don't see why it's so hard to condemn both Jan 6 and the BLM riots. They were all wrong/bad.
