11 I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and wages war. 12 His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself. 13 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. 14 The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. 15 Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. “He will rule them with an iron scepter.”[a] He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. 16 On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written:
king of kings and lord of lords.
This is taking way to long. Get it over with. Start working on Inflation!
The President and The VP do have interchangeable duties, it is possible for the VP to assume the position of delivering a speech to the American public on behalf of the American people and for the VP to make a phone call, send an email, write a letter, meet with other leaders, etc, etc.
Remember my prediction I made last year !! Boris is gone, as with sleepy Joe they,ve tried giving him corvid, and they will try another route !! If Joe does not stop Pelosi going to Taiwan, he is finished !!
Is Trump behind bars yet? We Americans are sick and tired of these witch hunts. It’s time for America to move on. Let’s start by putting the rightful owner of the 2020 presidential election back where he belongs!!
How many years you been trying to get him and still nothing?
Merrick Garland should better investigate the way Hunter Biden escaped FBI's past investigations,
Or how the cartels are now practicing human slavery over women and children at the USA southern border.
And there is also the Pelosi case of share purchases that could be investigated, too…
"2 former Pence aides appeared before grand jury about Jan. 6 attack" so let's #ConvinceItForward
Trump did nothing illegal and he did not orchestrate an "insurrection." It was a protest that went bad. The left is afraid of Trump, and, they want to find a way to prevent him from running for POTUS in 2024, and, they want to vilify republicans for the 2022 election, because the majority of americans will not vote democrat, after what they have done to america and the rest of the world.
"Trump Authorized National Guard for Jan. 6 but Congress, DC Didn’t Request Its Use, Former Aide Says Under the law, a president can't order domestic deployment of Guard; local officials must request it. Period.
A claim by the vice chair of the House Jan. 6 Select Committee that President Trump didn’t order the use of National Guard troops in the District of Columbia on Jan. 6, 2021, is true because that would have been a violation of the law, former Pentagon chief of staff Kash Patel says. Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) told Fox News’ Bret Baier that Trump “never issued any order to deploy the National Guard to protect the Capitol.” Patel said that Trump authorized up to 20,000 National Guard troops for use in D.C. or elsewhere on Jan. 6, 2021, but the use of those troops was later rejected by D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and the U.S. Capitol Police.
Under the law, the president can’t order the deployment of the military for use inside the United States, Patel said. At the time of the Jan. 6, 2021, unrest, Patel was chief of staff for Acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller. “She knows the truth—45 [Trump] authorized the National Guard days before Jan. 6, and Pelosi and Bowser rejected it,” Patel told The Epoch Times. “Cheney knows it’s unconstitutional for any president to ever order the military to deploy domestically. He may only authorize their use, then there must be a request. In the new documentary, “The Real Story of Jan. 6,” Kash Patel, former chief of staff for the U.S. secretary of defense, said National Guard troops were rejected by Capitol Police and the D.C. mayor. (Screenshot/EpochTV) The Real Story of January 6 | Documentary “By her own quote, she has cleared Trump of the very thing she has accused him of from Day 1—an insurrection,” Patel said.
“So, yes, Trump never made that illegal order. He followed the law.” Authorized 20,000 Guard Troops As Patel explains in the new EpochTV documentary about 01062020, Trump authorized as many as 20,000 Guard troops for use on Jan. 6, 2021, during a meeting several days earlier.
The offer of troops was rejected and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), he said. Under the 1878 Posse Comitatus Act, the U.S. military can’t be used domestically for enforcing laws or keeping order. Part-time citizen-soldiers can only be used under certain conditions.
“The Supreme Court said two things must happen,” said. “One: the President of the United States has to authorize, not order, the use of the National Guard. DC Mayor Muriel Bowser rejected President Trump’s offer of National Guard troops on 0106 in this letter a day before. (Kash Patel/Screenshot via The Epoch Times) “Once that happens, step two has to happen as well before they can be deployed,” he said, “and that is a request from the head of state, the governor, or in this case, Mayor Bowser because it’s Washington, D.C. Or federal law enforcement needs to request the National Guard to be deployed. “If those two things don’t happen, then any issuance of the National Guard would be literally unconstitutional.”
According to the U.S. Department of Defense Inspector General's report, regarding the events of Jan. 6, 2021, the use of National Guard troops was discussed during a White House meeting on Jan. 3, 2021. In attendance were Miller, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chair Gen. Mark Milley, presidential chief of staff Mark Meadows, and Patel. “The President told Mr. Miller that there would be a large number of protestors on January 6, 2021, and Mr. Miller should ensure sufficient National Guard or soldiers would be there to make sure it was a safe event.”
Patel said at the end of the meeting that Trump brought up Jan. 6, 2021. “President Trump pivoted and said, basically, ‘Hey, what are you guys doing for security’—I’m paraphrasing here—‘for anything that might happen on Jan. 6?’ “He said, ‘If you need up to 20,000 National Guardsmen and women, not just in Washington, D.C., but anywhere in the country, you have my authorization,’” Patel recalled. The Defense Department then took the presidential authorization to the U.S. Capitol Police and Bowser. “Mayor Bowser, in writing, pursuant to her own letter that we released from her, sent to the Department of Defense, declined to issue any more National Guardsmen and women,” Patel said. The same authorization was taken to the Capitol Police, which declined additional National Guard personnel, Patel said. Official Jan. 6 Timeline According to the Capitol Police’s Official Jan. 6 Timeline the Pentagon contacted USCP on Jan. 2, 2021, to “determine whether USCP is considering a request for National Guard soldiers for Jan. 6, 2021, event.” Former President Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Fla., on Jan. 31, 2022. (The Epoch Times)
A day later, Capitol Police Deputy Chief Sean Gallagher responded that “a request for National Guard support is not forthcoming at this time after consultation with COP [chief of police] Sund.” During a June appearance on the Fox News program “Hannity,” Miller recalled the meeting in which the use of the National Guard was discussed. “The president said while we’re leaving, ‘Hey, one more thing,’ and we all sat back down and discussed what was going on on Jan. 6th,” Miller said. “The president was doing just what I expect the commander in chief to do, any commander in chief to do. He was looking at the broad threats against the United States and he brought this up on his own. We did not bring it up.”"
Trump has much more defense than a couple of former AIDS that stand behind his statements. Joey Boy cheated and your party is corrupt. Majority rules , the Red Wave is coming.
What happened to the Russian collusion story? I've been asking leftist this, they never answer. They always deflect, avoid, the question. The point is, Jan 6 is the new Russian collusion story. If one lie doesn't work the left looks for another lie. Instead of trying to find false stories on Trump, it would be more productive to investigate Obama, Hillary, Biden.
And what was your son Hunter doing for those 3 hours? another back room deal with China while weighing all his crack?
Yep, no. Keep going, though. You're doing great to drive us to galvanized solidarity to push liberals into the seas!
Could you please stop the Trump Derangement Syndrome 🐂💩 fake news and pretend to do journalism again? Take a look at your ratios. You're not fooling anyone anymore.
Bullshit….
And the BS continues!
Go Trump!!! NO PENCE!!!
Jan 6th was a staged event that's why Burn Loot Murder BLM wasn't there
I Shawn Sang Ik Kim has always been, is, will always be the very best, the most perfect, the most powerful alpha male conqueror king of this world that has existed, is existing, and will ever exist. Thanks
Fake news if they let the blm hate group by why are they coming after these people?
TRUMP 2024🇺🇸
Reminder: Wyoming Republican Primary to oust Liz Cheney is now in progress. Last day to vote in person is August 16.
LET’S GO BRANDON!
Fake, treason by the democrats and media
Stephen Colbert did way worse when he led his insurrectionist team.
We could rename it Janteenth?
Keep focusing on this bs don't cry when midterms comes around
Who cares? It’s all made up crap to divide Americans and distract people. It’s not convincing anyone. If you hate Trump, you’ll just continue to hate. If you like Trump you’ll not change your opinion. If I different you’ll not be swayed one way or another. Waste of time.
Nobody cares about this sham committee with zero evidence and low level staffers who know absolutely nothing. None of this will matter after Friday when Trump announces his run for 2024 as it will stop the J6 clown show in it's tracks, once he announces they can't stop him from running which is all they are trying to do anyway and we all know that it never would have worked. Congress can't prosecute alleged crimes it's in the constitution
Like I really think those aides are reliable —NOT! Too bad we can’t follow their money trail because you can bet someone is having their pockets lined.
You all want to convict Trump for something he didn't do, yet you allow Biden to do nothing while people are dying by his inability to be PRESIDENT of the the FREE WORLLD. Too bad he can't even remember where he is at. TRUMP 2022!
Biden needs stfu,how much blood he got on his hands.
Meanwhile, in real news, Cuomo murdered over 15,000 innocent people in New York.
Propaganda.
Trump did not act on the violence because he wanted it and created it. it’s not rocket science😒
just lock him up before he does anymore damage to our country ✊🏼✊🏽✊🏿✊🏾🇺🇸
