  1. Thank you, Congressman Adam Kinzinger, for your service in the military, & as an Elected Official, you deserve the respect of all patriotic Americans. As the dthr. of USAF Captain, Tuskege Airman, & Pilot, I traveled US, Asia, & Europe always respecting the heart & soul of our Nation & Constitution. As a young adult, back stateside, I fought for Equity, Equality, Voters Rights, Civil Rights, & no wars. Today, for me, you, with Rep. Liz Cheney, reflect the best of America, "Do the Right Thing!" IMO, "The J6 Committee" earned 'People of the Year 2022'! Though you were just doing your jobs 'The J6 Final Report' is clear evidence of an honest 'Job Well Done', making The J6 Panel deserving of Medals Of Honor 👏🏽. We shall succeed in '24 to overcome the Trump led fallback to 'jimcrow AmeriKKKa', we've come too far to fail! "Onward & Upward"🇺🇲❤️🤍💙🇺🇲👍🏼👍🏻👍🏽👍🏿🇺🇲🌈❤🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤎🤍🌈🇺🇲#ExpelSeditionists_Traitors #ExpelLiars #Expelmtg #ExpelSantos #ExpelTraitors

  2. WTF! These "tourists" built a 'gallows' people! They planned to "Hang Pence" & other Elected Officials, the Speaker Of The House, our 3rd in succession to POTUS! Yet judges are not sentencing these Domestic terrorists, as threats to our Nation, but for "parading"! WHY? Are the GOP/gQp/T/tp members truly Putin puppets? Are trumpists really destroying America, for jimcrow 2.0, & Civil War 2? They're telling you to fear being "woke" & remain 'sleep'? "Just say no" to "stupid" & think for the face in the mirror.
    Insurrection is a crime. J6 was a coup, it failed bc the laws worked. In USA no one is above the law. #Impeach_ExpelTraitors #ExpelAllThoseComplicitInJ6Coup
    Sgt. At Arms needs warrants for all seditionists! #JUSTICEMATTERS

  3. TALKTALKTALK FIDDLE FIDDLE FIDDLE BURN BURN BURN

  4. Imagine how much better off the country would be today if there were actually an insurrection.

  5. MEANWHILE THE BORDER IS BROKE THAT HAPPENED AND ILLEGAL ASYLUM SEEKERS BY THE MILLIONS IS A DANG INSURRECTION AND INVASION

  6. Ok so wanting an election investigated due to the very strange things that occurred. Things like 6 states shutting down counting at the same time. This has never happened before, not even 1 state has ever just stopped counting on election night, let alone 6 states. The obvious and statistically impossible spikes in votes for Biden at 2, 3 ,4am when counting was NOT SUPPOSED to be happening in 6 states since it was shut down and everyone supposedly sent home. These are just 2 examples. If anyone can't see the problem here, I feel for you.
    Now, should we talk about the FAR LEFTS storming of the capitol during the Kavanaugh confirmation hearings when Pelisi WELCOMED PROTESTORS that ILLEGALLY entered the capitol?? Should we have the conversation about the FAR LEFT BOMBING OF THE CAPITOL BUILDING in 1971 by the FAR LEFT DOMESTIC TERRORIST GROUP known as Weather Underground?
    Some of you need to take the blinders off, LOOK WITH YOUR EYES and stop being TOLD what to think.
    It's not even about Trump, it's about getting back to a REPRESENTATIVE form of government for EVERYBODY. It's about retaining our freedom and ending the long standing corruption in government. Defeating these criminals benefits ALL OF US.

  7. 4 Million per Patriot Missile – this is a Proxy war over Oil and Gas, and of course China Joe has to pay back Hunter's job role, and for Ukraine firing the prosecuting attorney going against the Oil Company Hunter work for – tit for tat – right China Joe?
    China Joe is protecting other countries Borders and Not his own
    Why is the US the only country putting so much money into this war? Cause China Joe and Hunter owes Ukraine and the WORLD ORDER is ordering him to
    And why is the US 101st on the Ukraine border standing by for China Joe to order them to go in after Russia crosses an imaginary line that keeps moving cuz he can't remember where it is

  8. O and don't forget the First President to FALL GOING UP STAIRS more than once

  9. Hats off to the Capital Police who obeyed orders to let them in., told them not to ask for backup, just to set up our President Trump
    And the FBI for planting the 8 informants in the Proud Boys, and Oath Keepers Domestic Terrorist Groups back in Oct 2019 and allowing them to come to Washington, ARMED, knowing they will act out – Just to setup our President Trump
    And so much more …..
    The DEMS know how to manipulate the public – they have it down

  10. the DEM Backed FBI sponsored via many informants on the Domestic Terrorist groups, the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys were the ONLY ones charged with Seditious Conspiracy – All others were charged for Trespassing and other misdemeanors – One Protestor even got found innocent cuz the Capital Police let him in to wonder around
    funny they knew they were coming back in Oct 2019 but let it play out, let them bring their weapons just to frame our President Trump

  11. FACTS NOT THE TRUTHS the DEMS are a threat to our Nation, Way of life, and our Constitutional Republic that uses Democracy only to run our government and elect our leaders
    All the JAN6 intruders were only found guilty of Trespassing and Misdemeanors –
    Except for the DEM Backed FBI sponsored via many informants on the Domestic Terrorist groups, the Oath Keepers and Proud Boys were charged with Seditious Conspiracy –
    funny they knew they were coming back in Oct 2019 but let it play out, let them bring their weapons just to frame our President Trump
    NO ONE was charged with insurrection or interrupting a session of Congress
    Can't trust the Pro-2020 good election believers
    Can't trust the DEEP SWAMP – of course, they didn't want to work for our President Trump
    It was the DEEP SWAMP making the White House chaotic
    TRUMP2024 – to clean up this mess

  12. The US House of Representatives should DE FUND the FBI, the Capital Police and the DOJ, they are now OWNED by a political party targeting their opponents their families, manipulating elections, friends and co-workers, Concerned Parents, even hiding evidence of their own, this goes beyond Corruption it's treasonous

  13. The most troubling part of Jan 6th is the misreporting of deaths. There was only 1 death on that day due to the riot, it was a protestor who entered the capital shot by police. They are trying to claim police officers were killed by the rioters, ever wonder why no one has been convicted of murder?? Because no one was killed by the rioters. Yet they spew lies, the officers that died have been confirmed to die of natural causes days after the riot.

    Then there is Ray Epps. He is the only one caught on camera encouraging the crowd the storm the capital. In fact if you review footage you will see him whispering something in a rioters ear, then seconds later he is tearing down the barricade. Seems like solid evidence, after Jan 6th was pressured they finally talked to this guy. Half of his testimony was blacked out. So we may never know his involvement.

    Better yet, the FBI was questioned under oath and asked, if they had someone in the crowd inciting violence. Their answer? "We cant answer that question". Shouldnt the answer be an assured no?

    In the end it is true, and I concur all these people need prosecuted. But the evidence indicates something nefarious went on, and I believe many know they cant prosecute Trump over it, because their hands are in it.

    In the end they figure it just bread and circuses. The sad part about it are the lies continue being told to shape a political narrative. This is typical however in most empires, you have the rabble and mob controlled by mass media and the lies they spew.

  14. If a republicunt wins presidency we'll turn into north Korea

  15. it’s incredible the scale of the insurrection, investigations, evidence, and those involved both publicly and secretly. we may still know little now, but hopefully everything is disclosed and people are help responsible.

  16. While speaking about the deadly Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol rally, Biden referred arroniously to the death of Capitol Police Officer William Evans, who was killed by Noah Green, an apparent supporter of the Nation of Islam. This incident happened in April of 2021 when Green struck Evans and another officer through a barricade with a vehicle. Noah Green was fatally shot by police after exiting his car with a large knife and lunging at officers, according to the Capitol Police. This had nothing to do with January 6th.
    But Bidden continued to Overlooking that the only person killed on January 6th in regards to shots involved in the Capitol rally was when a US Capitol Police officer shot and killed an unarmed, non-aggessing, innocent of any wrongdoing, 🪖 veteran, Ashli Babbitt. After shooting Ashli Babbitt the officer will not face any disciplinary action, as the government will have control of the narrative. That should be the narrative of the facts of this humiliation of a speech.

  17. If January 6th was an insurrection than Jacob Blake Sr. can see his toes 🤣

  18. Yes, exactly the same as pearl harbor…

  19. Will never be forgotten.
    WON'T ever be forgotten.

    We narrowly avoided the path of Weimar Germany after the Reichstag burned in 1933.
