  1. Can you imagine if Jan 6 had the same outcome ?

  2. Republicans say Biden is responsible. To hear them… inflation only exists in America and it’s democrats fault despite worldwide inflation at all time highs and worldwide gas prices spinning out of control. Everywhere.

    Guess they only pay attention to world news if it suits their narrative. Otherwise it’s business as usual promoting misinformation, lies and stirring up stupid voters over said misinformation and lies.

    Don’t get me wrong… their agenda of deceit is working. Most republican voters don’t bother to view reality or read world news. They prefer to be hand feed hate and propaganda for their political leaders profit and need for power.

    … and they prolifically accuse the left of being sheep. 🤦‍♀️

  3. Take notes, global citizens…. We are many… 🫢

  4. Lmfao .. now that is impressive..

  5. See y'all be watching the American people y'all start acting like American people and y'all know all y'all going to get in trouble

  6. They Came, they Confronted, they Conquered. They have every right to oust the rulers who they elected but failed them.

  7. Could we do the same in France ??!!!

  8. Moron Largo's next 🤞 🇺🇸.

  9. So this isn't an insurrection because it didn't affect american politicians. This is exactly what should have happened on America.

  10. Their Leftist leaders ruined the economy for the "climate change" scam. What a surprise – they're outraged at having Leftist Lunacy jammed down their throats.

  11. Looks like Jan 6 lol

  12. As long as democrats stay in power, that will be coming here.

  13. Portland, JAMAICA in the Building !

  16. News Flash – Steve Bannon pleads to be able to testify, but he committed his crime already so he will go to jail.

    Cipollone does not dispute Trumps illegal activities…..Trump to be indicted soon…

    Cipollone was Trumps White House lawyer and has NOW testified under oath to convict Trump.

    Trumpist making deadly threats and trying to intimidate witnesses!

    Trumpist gunmen will continue because Trump has never been punished for his crimes…..they see no Law and no Order. Arrest Trump and save our kids!

    Trump attacked his secret service agent. Secret Service Agents asked to testify UNDER oath!

    Trump vandalized the White House, destroyed White House property in fit of rage and stole secret documents.

    FBI seized John Eastman for criminal activity and now has his cell phone

    Ron Johnson lies about his seditious conspiracy efforts.

    Mo Brooks, Matt Gates,Scott Perry,Louis Gohmert, Andy Biggs,Paul Gosar, Marjorie Taylor Greene, John Eastman admits guilt….all by asking for pardons!

    Everyone knows, if you ask for or accept a pardon you are admitting guilt! A pardon is for a crime committed.

    Trump willfully mounted the insurrection and violate conspiracy statute 18 U.S.C. § 371 of the criminal code. Trump also stole secret documents from the White House.

    Attorney General Merrick Garland plans to arrest Trump and his leadership team!

    Steve Bannon Arrested, Guilty and Indicted! All appeals denied by courts and his trial starts in July 2022.

    Loudermilk is a Trumpist Insurgent. He lead Trumpists into the Capital and then denied it.

    Support for Trumpism is support for more mass shooting

    No person is above the law! Listen to former DOJ Eric Holder, you can and need to prosecute Trump.

    since January 6 2021 not one single Republican lawmaker has been held accountable for their insurrection actions. they will win re-election if not arrested and they will cause more chaos and mass shootings. Put an end to the evil Trumpist Republicans and support the good Republicans and good democrats.

    MAGA Trumpists are ramping up their war machine to lie about their insurrection! Dont believe the lies!
    .

    We need to support a federal law mandating prison time for each lie told by an elected official.
    .

    More Very Disturbing Trends –

    1 Law enforcement has NO OBLIGATION TO HELP ANYONE…that is what their Union will fight for during investigations and trials.

    2 Law enforcement cant be prosecuted for Not doing their jobs

    3 Law enforcement can legally lie unless they are under oath at that moment

    4 The District Attorney will side with the cops almost always

    5 Law enforcement has qualified immunity, which makes it very difficult to prosecute them

    Texas Shooting Coverup …..over 18 armed evil trumpist c o p s had over 11,000 live rounds of ammo and they waited. and waited…..while people were being killed. it took the border patrol to take out the shooter…. how sad is that?

    nothing will happen to these evil trumpist people unless the locals keep up the pressure and the cops and politicians involved leave!
