It's the Democrats that "OVERTOOK" the elections…if Trump did anything he tried to get his election back which was STOLEN. If Trump is lying then why don't Democrats let him talk and present his evidence so they can prove him wrong…fact is they can't prove him wrong because he isn't!
Jan. 6 wasn't an insurrection. Stop calling it what it isn’t.

Words have meaning.
The events of Jan. 6 have been described by Senator Schumer as a date that will live in infamy — harkening back to FDR’s words after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Others have compared Jan. 6 with 9-11. Some historians declared it to be the worst act of rebellion since the nation’s founding, while others believe there’s been nothing like it since the Civil War. The news media and the Left use “insurrection” to describe Jan. 6.
They’re all wrong.
Historically, Shays’ Rebellion (1786-1787), the Whiskey Rebellion (1790), and Fries Rebellion (1799) were actual acts of insurrection.
Post-Civil War, the Wilmington Insurrection (1898) is by far worse than Jan. 6. Another one, the Battle of Athens, TN (1946), involved local armed WWII GIs taking over the town, forcing the corrupt sheriff to hide in the jail clinging to the election ballot boxes, until he finally surrendered and the GIs’ candidate won the election. There were the L.A. riots of 1992.
And the BLM riots during the summer of 2020 caused 18 deaths, over $1 billion dollars in damage, including federal and state buildings, and in some cities sovereign nations were declared.
Jan. 6. caused $1.5 million in damage and, despite what was often reported, one person was killed. An unarmed woman, Ashley Babbitt, was shot by a Capitol police officer. The officer’s interview on NBC resulted in more questions than answers about why he fired his weapon and killed Babbitt.
The word insurrection is a legal term. Under federal law it’s a crime to incite or engage in any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the U.S. or its laws. Black’s Law Dictionary defines insurrection as “a violent revolt against oppressive authority.” It is to be distinguished from a mob or riot based on organization of an armed uprising. Mobs and riots can involve unlawful and violent acts, but they aren’t necessarily insurrections. A revolt is an act to overthrow the government. Insurrection, therefore, requires an organized group that plans an attack to overthrow the government.
To date, a small percentage of the approximately 725 charged have been accused of violent crimes, and no charges of rebellion or insurrection have been filed. Around 165 have pled guilty to charges — mostly to misdemeanors. Only 30 were given jail time. The FBI investigation has yielded little evidence of a coordinated and organized attack. Instead, 95 percent of the participants were acting individually.
An AP story intending to link Trump to the riot published some of the comments made by participants during court appearances. None of them stated that the event was planned. Indeed, most indicated they didn’t really know why they did it. They said they felt inspired by Trump’s comments and believed the election was fraudulent, but there was no organized or coordinated plan to attack the Capitol.
Most of the Jan. 6 participants have been charged with trespass. One local man was at the Capitol dressed as George Washington for selfies. A woman from Missouri recently admitted being at the Capitol and stealing a broken sign.
Video footage shows people walking single file past idle officers as they entered the building. Afterward, most exited on their own accord.
Very few were arrested that day. Since Jan. 6, the DOJ has used a campaign of “shock and awe” to round up and detain people, again predominantly charged with misdemeanors. Compared with the BLM riots, prosecutors do seem more zealous about Jan. 6. Yet, insurrection charges haven’t been filed.
Confrontation between officers and rioters did happen. Violence definitely occurred. But, the only shot fired was, again, by the officer who killed Babbitt.
Jan. 6 was a horrible event. People who acted violently or damaged property should be prosecuted. Those who unlawfully trespassed should also be prosecuted. But as bad as Jan. 6 actually was, it was not the worst in American history. It can’t be compared to Pearl Harbor or 9-11. It’s not even the worst this century.
Because words have meaning, Jan. 6 can’t be called an “insurrection” just to satisfy the urge to convey a particular seriousness of the event or to propagate a political narrative. This type of narrative is aimed at silencing conservatives, not describing what happened that day. Most participants were not violent people. They weren’t acting as part of a coordinated rebellion. There was no intent to topple the government. They were impassioned citizens at a rally that turned into a riot. It was shameful, but not an insurrection.
He apologized to officers at the Capital. Is he also apologizing for the death of Ashley Babbitt? Has he contacted her parents? is he a co-conspirator in her death? Is he a co-conspirator in the riot? Is he a co-conspirator in the fraud that enslaved a nation? Wow, this could be pages.
January 6th happened to keep the American public from knowing that the Election was stolen and to make sure the actually Elected Official would never be in office again.
The Vatican owns Washington D.C., Trump should have a new Capital built somewhere and maybe bury the swamps influence in our Politics! 2 freedom loving Countries lost for a Climate hoax? Sold seems more obvious.
Every States Election results are posted the night of, or early the next morning, or it's obviously fraud.
California was still counting votes Jan. 6th. New York too from what I heard. November 2020 was America being attacked from within for European desires. I now see Europe as the threat, more than Russia or China.
Nancy Pelosi was in charge of the cop that murdered Ashley Babbitt. It was her job to make sure the Capital wasn't breached. It's now clear that she did all this to hide the fact that They stole a presidential Election.
Donald Trump? No!!! Nancy Pelosi rejected Trumps request for the National guard to protect the capital. Bombs in Capital hill, props I think, never investigated. Capital Police Officer murders woman without sufficient reason unless ordered too. FBI handing out weapons and encouraging violence. More! This was a coup.
Jan 6 fedserection🤣why didn't Pelosi protect the capital?
Everyone who participated in the antifa riots needs to go to prison along with him.
I can't wait until the Republicans take over in November. We are going to put Hunter on one of these "hearings" and kick Liz Cheney back into the hole she came out of ! And exonerate our President Trump of course. This jan 6 committee is nothing more than a biased, one sided, highly edited sound and video kangaroo court.
The word "peacefully" makes it all ok? What happened to justice? He manipulates all of these people and they are paying for what he called them to do, but he walks away as though he did nothing, seriously? Then, i promise, he will do it again, better; or someone like him, smarter learning from this continuing side-step of justice. I have to wonder if some one in this report follows him, too.
The Uncover FBI Cop JAMES KNOWLES who was imbedded in with the Proud Boys wrote in his report that they did not carry any weapons .go into the Capital Building or were involved in any insurrection..Nor did they have any contact with Trump…The report was given to GATEWAY PUNDIT by a whistleblower..Liz Cheney also got the same report .Cheney and Raskin lied to the American People ..The only people that carried weapons on Jan6 was a bus load of ANTIFA who were arrested and then released on the day of Jan6…FACTS MATTER
A show trial is a public trial in which the judicial authorities have already determined the guilt or innocence of the defendant. The actual trial has as its only goal the presentation of both the accusation and the verdict to the public so they will serve as both an impressive example and a warning to other would-be dissidents or transgressors.[2]
People's Court in Nazi Germany. Trial of Adolf Reichwein, 1944. He was sentenced to death and became the victim of judicial murder.[1]
Show trials tend to be retributive rather than corrective and they are also conducted for propagandistic purposes.[3] When aimed at individuals on the basis of protected classes or characteristics, such trials are examples of political persecution. The term was first recorded in 1928.[4] BBC CNN MSNBC ABC CBS CNN MSNBC ABC
2000 Mules!!
The democrats politicians as well as their bot followers accused Trump of breaking the law. Even though charges were consistently dropped. But they continued to badger, bully, thinking up one false charge after the other. They went after him relentlessly in office, and two years after leaving office continued to harass him relentless. I have NEVER SEEN SUCH SHAMEFUL BEHAVIOR AGAINST A POLITICAL PARTY IN ALL MY LIFE! If it were anyone else to badger, harass, and continuely bring false charges against ANY AMERICAN IT WOULD BE AGAINST THE LAW TO HARASS SOMEBODY LIKE THEY HAVE BEEN DOING TO TRUMP. But these evil democrats get away with it repeatedly!
I want to see legal charges brought up against these democrats politicians
and rhino Republicans like Cheney! As American citizen I am entitled to this and I want to see it done now! Biden, Clinton, Harris, schumer, nancy, hunter and adam schiff just to name a few. Nancy for NOT DOING HER JOB ON 01/06/2020 Which cost people their lives, biden selling our oil to China, breaking constitutional laws as well as receiving money from China and Afghanistan. Schiff for his involvement in the fake Russian collusion, schumer for instagting violence concerning the riots. Harris for not doing her job with the border and obtaining funds to get antifa out of jail and back on the streets (per her own words) during the real insurrection in America. The 2020 riots the democratic party supported which cost many lives, business, damages to personal and public property
Had enough of the lies, misinformation, not reported information and mainstream media cover ups for TRAITOR JOE and the rest of the Biden crime family? Tired of not hearing the truth about scenarios like the J6 panel “kangaroo court” and constant stream of liars feeding misinformation to a panel of idiots with nothing more than personal agendas that have nothing to do with the welfare of the American public?
Get the truth; Rumble, FirstTV, OANN, Sky News Austrailia and other “real” news outlets where you hear the truth on today’s issues, not the BS line the jerk off Democrats want you to believe.
I'm 🤣🤣🤣🤣at all of you ! No weapon formed against President Trump shall prosper and every tongue that rise's against him falsely God shall condem.
Bring the witnesses you liars.
Dan Arbram should be Donald Trump lawyer # the best lawyer in the world.
The key takeaway is the mob leaders are still free to roam among us
Political show trial. Meanwhile real crimes are ignored. Where is the DOJ and FBI on Hunter and Pedo Pete? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZzJX5vJU2k
^^^^^^
Increase Your Satisfaction … by Understanding Your Existence … EXISTNC
Uma lumpia minions are turning on the orange 🍊 POS.
No one cares, the insurrection was Nov 3
lock him up
What do the politicians actually do but fight with each other
How much do individuals running for office have to pay Donald Trump for an endorsement
This country is falling apart we need trump back.
Anyone who is surprised by what we're learning in these hearings has been living under a rock for the last seven years. The rest of us have been horrified by the spectacle all along.
The leaked Bannon audio isnt getting enough attention
The country has witnessed the Seditious Conspiracy ignited, planned & organized by the X President. He searched & searched, then repeatedly & intentionally ignored the truth. The X President did not care about the truth, the lives he was responsible to protect nor the country & the Democracy he had worked so relentlessly to destroy!
Now we witness lawyers debate if he can be held legally accountable for the crimes everyone knows he committed! Whatever, is needed to have Trump to be imprisoned will equal Justice. If not America will witness the greatest injustice to have been forced on we the people. The Rule of Law Will-loose it’s meaning & America will witness the end of Democracy already hanging in the balance by the actions of the Supreme Court standing against the will of the majority!
The libflakes need to shut down this disdain for deplorables sh.. show…all it does is make them look so weak…well, weaker. It's just a long slog of superlatives and fake shock. The lib media will never dig into the archives and replay their nightly theatrical episodes from 3 years ago where they tried to impeach trump because it just shows how inconsequential they are…nobody goes to jail, nobody is held accountable, nothing….just eyeball money …take it to the cliff but don't drive over….just stoke the flames of the culture war drama and division…for ratings to attract big pharma ad pocketbooks. Oh my God! This is worse than watergate! This is like Ted Bundy, Jeff Dahmer, Son of Sam and Auschwitz rolled into one!! We'll be right back after these messages on how to lower your A1C and some old whiny NFL QB with CTE trying to con you into a 3rd party medicare buyout scam.
3 reasons Trump is not going to stop "Big Lie" EVER.
1. Ripping his gullible supporters till last penny.
2. His Childish Narcissistic Ego won't let him admit Defeat.
3. Afraid of going to Prison.
I never have and never will let the media make me believe anything. As a child I never believed my teachers either. I read the books end to end on the first week of school.
Does anyone else notice that these rioters are not the sharpest tools in the shed?
So, after inciting rioters at a rally you planned, all you have to do is throw in the word "peacefully" at the end, and you're immune to justice. Good to know.

All lies from hell. This is fake
They doing everything to convince you, that the election was not rigged. All the information is being held by General Milley, Scandal Pichai, and the leadership of the FBI.
Key takeaway, we don't care. Stop wasting our money by having this hearing. Fix our economy and secure our border. DO YOUR JOB!
There’s something wrong with humanity when so few are allowed to make decisions that affect so many in such horrible fashion.
I totally agree with what you are saying …. <The fact is, BTC is the future of crypto and the questions traders ask themselves now if this is right time to invest? before jumping into conclusion and think you should take a look at things first. for the past few days the price of BTC has been fluctuating which means the market is currently unstable and you cant tell if it is going bearish or bullish. while others still continue to trade without the fear of making lose, others are being patient. it all depends on the pattern with which you trade and also the source of your signals. i would say trading has been going smoothly for me, i started with 2.5 BTC and i have accumulated over 16.6 BTC in just three weeks, with the trading strategy given to me by expert trader Shalton Morrison. goodvibes
