Congressman Himes: ‘You Can’t Defend What The President Did’ On Jan 6th | Deadline | MSNBC
Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time. It’s an extremely simple philosophy.
The truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn’t there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who’s to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you’re looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror..

Semper Fi
@Richard Partin Congress’ approval rating – not so good: https://www.statista.com/statistics/207579/public-approval-rating-of-the-us-congress/
Now if we could just jail the media for these fake, staged, propaganda stunts that they pull…
We need to hold Congress accountable for their failure over and over again……Term Limits on elected officials!!!!!!!!!!!!

We already have that with the clenched fist “solidarity” movement so….. And adolf actually did that clenched fist thing himself a lot.
@Forest Run Yes, the MAGAts & their “militias”.
And if you try to defend what he did, I hope you don’t work for us, if you hold any kind of seat, you need to be removed. Period .
“IF YOU DONT FIGHT EVERY THING YOU LOVE WILL DIE……… also please be nice we are a nation laws after all 🥺”
Fight nice tho.
Good to see you’ll support arrests for all the Democrats who left out the second part.

You cannot defend what the monoparty does to working America.
@Robert Taylor
But they have a great deal of control over what businesses CAN do.
@Robert Taylor Zero control? What the heck are you talking about? You obviously never even ran a small business before. They control where sign go, what doors stay open, what you can sell, ext. The list is just way too long. Oh and a cute side note, big business are all in for the dems. All of them are very woke. Dems control business wake the heck up.
Mono party…great definitive word…

“MONOPARTY” …wow, where did YOU get that CRAP????
A CAPITOL POLICE/EMPLOYEE DIED!!!! What about the people who killed him?!???????!
What about him? ACAB
@Skylar C so you don’t want the murderers brought to justice?! And all of the terrorist that stole, damaged, attacked officers brought to justice?
@Thomas Harris ACAB. Pigs in a blanket.
Judge a person by the content of their character. It’ll save you a lot of trouble.
Congress, with the help of MSLSD, is at it again.
I’ll be glad when this over. I’m looking forward to moving on in the next four years.
Yeah, 4 years of race baiting, open borders and debasing the currency. Awesome!
@B Bhima that was the last four years
@Stephanie Drake borders were not open for the last four years.
They failed you realize these people already had this planned days before the rally
@Out of Compliance So… I would get those blackouts looked into… if you can only remember what you want to…
@James Scott Huh? What am I miss remembering? Perhaps you are having blackouts or perhaps you just listen to mainstream news that lies to you. You can pull of the speech. Trump said, (while the break in was happening), “go to the capitol and peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard” is a direct quote.

This started with the lack of enforcement of BLM rioting for months. It is better to take the fight to capital hill instead of attacking your neighbors and local economy. Extremists of both sides have lost respect for the failing leadership. We need strong leadership which includes term limits and age limits on political office. The system is broken still….
he’s ok with this, T***** I mean, Baron on the other hand, Melania is worried, as she should be !
Give a speech? Didn’t the riot in the capital start before he finished talking and saying to peacefully and patriotically walk to the capital? Gaslight much? You guys are something else I tell ya. Funny thing is it sure looks like most people are seeing right through your nonsense.
Republicans remind me of a Dysfunctional Family.
@David Eby Do you even know the definition of communism? How about dictator? Authoritarian? Socialism or fascism for that matter? & the differences between them?
I’m betting you don’t.
@Kiera Shepard There you go. Accusing Republicans of doing what the Democrats do in spades. Double standard as always.
@Tim Roden & there you go shifting blame from where it truly belongs. Typical MAGAt. Typical Repubnic*nt taking no accountability of your own actions while squealing like hogs. Pathetic.
FYI….”republicans”…TRUMPERS….NOT always the SAME creature.
@Peter w Pyle Aren’t they though? I mean, seriously? They all want the same thing: a white ethnostate ruled over by an authoritarian with the bible as law. Yeah, that’s Repubs & MAGAts in a nutshell.
Himes, Another zero politician. If you’re not part of the solution you’re part of the problem. Grow a spine and stand up and make a decision.
Revenge of the gerrymanders! That same vote concentrating method is coming back to haunt.
WORKS BOTH WAYS …for the SAME reasons.
News Media as usual never actually questioned why politicians are not helping the people. Why we live in a failed state and keep on repeating the same mistakes over and over. Thinking that people will forget they need jobs, food, health care or homes. Meanwhile Biden is sending more troops to Syria.🤯🤯
You could literally have written this whole interview on this dudes forehead
Sorry, Jimmy Himes, I’ll trust Frank Figluzzi’s expertise, knowledge, and view over yours.
