    Go reread the edited version of my post. It disgusts me that any American would attempt to stand of for a traitor like tRaitor tRump.

    And I find it entirely disquieting that any ration being could believe the insipid drivel you appear to believe on the basis of absolutely zero evidence.

    There is an avalance of "evidence". You refuse to even look at it, you won't even consider it so that you can continue to "claim" there is none. But, tRaitor tRumps life has been one of grift and deceit. He's taken advantage of EVERYONE he's ever done business with, defrauded his customers, even children with cancer. He's ruined the lives of thousands of people. He IS the personification of everything American's have traditionally despised and has NOT ONE of the qualities we admire. It was a EC fluke that he was ever elected in the first place and, as predicted he proved himself incapable, unworthy and ill suited to lead. American's get it right EVERY TIME, he has NEVER gained popular approval ... EVER. And, no matter what, he never will.

    No I don't hate him but the slimiest, stinkenest, most vile purified refuse, disgusts me less than he does; the way he's purported to smell it's probably hard to tell the difference. And I really, really feel sorry for his followers.

    Yet only one citizen was fatally shot.

    I noticed you ignored that maybe they shouldn't have been invited in, in the first place?

    Why is that? Then their would be no pretend insurrection to complain about and wield into a political power play, no doubt.

    The only person who invited them was Trump, and he didn't have the authority to do so. And far more shootings would have been justified. I'm glad the police exercised restraint.

    174 of the defendants from Jan 6th who have been found (or pled) guilty have testified that they believed they were following Trump's instructions.

    Here is a list of them along with the tweets, speeches and other words, from Trump, that they believe directed them to take the action they took

    Perhaps.
    So you're saying that it was just a coincidence that some unnamed persons brought pipe bombs into Washington DC on the day known to have Trump's rally and Congress counting the electoral votes ?

    ???? Youve not presented a shred of evidence to support your assertion he was pepper sprayed at the doors of the Capitol AND I have presented the DOJ report that makes no mention of this incident. WHAT has proved me wrong? My claim-
    Has stood the test of all of your b#tching and moaning in response.

    In the first Jan. 6 trial, a jury found Capitol riot defendant Guy Reffitt guilty

    Testimony and evidence showed that Reffitt brought an AR-15 rifle and a pistol with him on the trip. He took that pistol with him to Capitol grounds on Jan. 6, along with zip-tie-style flex cuffs, a helmet and body armor. As demonstrators approached the building, Reffitt started ascending a stairwell in front of the Capitol guarded by a handful of police officers. Those officers testified that Reffitt told them, "You can't stop us all. Let us in. Don't be a traitor." Officers shot at Reffitt with pepper balls and plastic less-lethal rounds and ultimately stopped him with pepper spray. As Reffitt sat on the stairwell, trying to wash the spray from his eyes, video showed him waving rioters forward.

    Carefully edited from a far right site ... no doubt. But you didn't supply a link so how could I tell.

    I'm not bitching or moaning, just the facts, only the facts. Which just blows up your little cocoon of denial.

    You can read the transcript of his entire speech to see that you just made that up. Trump told them to "march peacefully TO the Capitol... so your voices can be heard'.

    Nope, YOUR source says he was ""ascending a stairwell in front of the Capitol" NOT "going through the door" as you claimed. You made that part up because the actual facts dont support what you sooooo desperately need to believe. And still "there were no firearms in the Capitol"

    Conservative media falsely attack the Colorado Supreme Court ruling as “undemocratic" and “the ultimate election interference”

    On December 19, the Colorado Supreme Court removed former President Donald Trump from the state’s 2024 Republican primary ballot, finding that he “engaged in insurrection” and therefore is not an eligible presidential candidate per the 14th Amendment. Right-wing media figures swiftly condemned the decision as “election interference” and “voter suppression,” criticized the “anti-democratic” ruling by a “corrupt Democrat cabal,” and falsely asserted there is no legal basis to remove Trump because he has not been convicted over the January 6, 2021, insurrection.
    https://www.mediamatters.org/fox-ne...upreme-court-ruling-undemocratic-and-ultimate

    What hope is there of ever having an informed electorate, one we need to effectively govern ourselves, with RWM spewing lies 24/7?

    • Discussing the Colorado Supreme Court decision, Fox host Jesse Watters said: “It's more than voter suppression and intimidation. It’s the elimination of the voter. You can't vote for the guy you want to.” Fox contributor Charlie Hurt said, “Democrats in Colorado are so afraid of allowing American voters to vote and pick the next president that they are willing to do extrajudicial things –- complete highway robbery here — in order to thwart the people's choice from being on the ballot. To them, preserving democracy requires destroying democracy.” [Fox News, Jesse Watters Primetime, 12/19/23]

    Can you quote where the instructions were given though?

    Many mass shooters believe they're following God or Satan's instructions.

    If that's all it took, then anyone can be guilty of anything. If Proud Boys or Oath Keepers are arbitrars of the right then I guess Antifa and BLM are of the left. What a mess.

    Here's the bottom line. Trump has been indicted on his attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

    Despite claims to the contrary you can't "indict a ham sandwich"

    Once someone has been indicted the state (local or federal) has an almost 90% conviction/plea deal rate. Trump has NINETY ONE charges against him in various jurisdiction. The odds of him being convicted on at least some of those charges is so close to 100% that it's guaranteed he's going to be convicted.

    It's not a witch hunt. It's not "deranged" or "thug" Jack Smith out to get him.

    Trump did illegal **** and now is going to have to face the consequences of his actions.

    It is, whether you like it or not, the START of Trumps wish to upset the Electoral Vote count.
