    1. @Jimmy Jimmy, Go ahead, shift the blame in your false flag scenario; right-wing extremists are really good @ disinformation.

    2. @RaptorOfTheWest Lol Insurgency? Some people broke in and took selfies. Yet the year prior the left burned cities, but that was ok of course… *sarcasm*

  1. Almost every president has occasionally engaged in hyperbole, lying, corner-cutting, or press-bashing, though none have done so daily, if not hourly, until now. One lie does not undermine democracy, but 25,000+ lies can. One governmental reversal in court is not tyranny, but scores of such defeats reveal an administration at odds with the constitutional injunction to “faithfully execute  the laws.”

    If we added up the anti-democracy maneuvers of the prior 10 presidents over the past 60 years, they wouldn’t equal Trump alone in under four years—indeed, if you compare the eight close associates of Trump convicted or indicted in his almost-one term of office, that would again exceed those of all presidents combined (excepting Watergate felons) from Kennedy to Obama..

    Trump has done considerable damage to America’s democratic institutions, and  brought the nation to the brink of civil catastrophe. Trump is an emotionally wounded sociopath, who in-turn, has left America grievously wounded out of spite. And he was asking for another chance to finish her off.

    No one should ever get a second chance to destroy our Constitution, and our 244 year old democratic republic.

    1. @olrik parlez: “What we ought to do” IS implementation. Like trying harder to understand each other by putting our differences aside and listening and respecting each other rather than fighting. Seems like practical implementation to me. We can’t expect change in the country until we embrace that change in ourselves personally. Change in society begins with change in the individual.

    2. Dictators sensor they don’t get censored. God knows that they’re doing this because nobody would really show up..HISTORY SHOWS THAT EVIL PEOPLE RESORT TO CENSORSHIP AND PROPAGANDA

      turn to Jesus Christ people the MSM doesn’t care about you they are playing you to be full of hate and delusion

      They know the only way they can get and maintain power is to keep you in the dark and full of hate of other’s.

      Jesus Christ is the way of Love truth and peace

      MSM is the way of hate lies and discord.

      Turn to Jesus Christ Love and Truth today to be set free from hate and propaganda

    3. @Reason “What we ought to do” IS implementation??? *chuckle* By definition and practice it really isn’t but you seem to be at your limits here. I’ll commend you for your altruistic efforts on the sitch and leave you to it.

    4. Cheap civilian DRONES over Whashington Biden Inauguration !!!!!!! Civilian cheap DRONES fly above national guard troops and fortifications !!!!!Protesters can use chinese made or us made Cheap DRONES to desrupt Joe Biden inauguration !!!!

  2. Who here remembers when Janet Napolitano caught a bunch of ish, and had to apologize, for circulating a memo saying that some returning troops may have been radicalized thru their deployments?

    1. Maybe for someone like you who was fooled into believing he was a Russian agent. For me…These last 4 yrs have been fantastic for my community.  Everyone had jobs, our household incomes were up, my investments were high! Just peace and prosperity and the only folks upset were powerless Dems and China.  2024👍

    2. @Nothingseen did they also mention he was a Russian agent…Are you part of QAnon’s leftwing chapter?  You are too much..lol😂

    3. @Education is key Did who also mention who is a Russian agent? What in the world does pointing out that the FBI have been warning about the growing threat of right wing terrorism since the 90’s have anything to do with Qanon?

  3. Thank you to all that family members who is turning people who break that law at the capital good job 👏🇲🇽😷🇺🇸

    1. Joe needs to tear down the wall and let in the caravan of people from South America. They are on the way. Lets hope he doesn’t build more cages like he did with Obama🤞🤞🤔

    2. Cheap civilian DRONES over Whashington Biden Inauguration !!!!!!! Civilian cheap DRONES fly above national guard troops and fortifications !!!!!Protesters can use chinese made or us made Cheap DRONES to desrupt Joe Biden inauguration !!!!

    1. Ikr, couple of sandwiches short of a picnic, elevator doesn’t go to the top floor, not the sharpest knife in the drawer

    2. @ocean buoy Remember when Trudeau was rocking the blackface…or when he fired Wilson-Raybould for exposing his corruption. Some feminist! How about the WE charity scandal? At least he wears cool socks, just ask the former PM of Australia…

    1. They are waving the Confederate flag. The flag of a country that was the enemy of the United States of America. They aren’t patriots. They are uneducated fools.

    2. @Yo Daddy definitely, there’s always a level of skepticism needed

      They lie sometimes but not all the time, and gathering info from multiple sources can help tell the difference

      I watch both CNN and fox news, for good measure.. on YouTube I watch both far left (communists) and far right (fascists) channels

    3. Cheap civilian DRONES over Whashington Biden Inauguration !!!!!!! Civilian cheap DRONES fly above national guard troops and fortifications !!!!!Protesters can use chinese made or us made Cheap DRONES to desrupt Joe Biden inauguration !!!!

  4. Why didn’t this group just focus their attention on Area-51 and aliens. Overthrowing our democracy seems like a waste.

    1. @Jack B I’m actually wondering if you don’t have a good point (and Goodnough) unlike Horror movies these evil entities can be explained in “human terms” I wonder since we know there are & have been many cults that do include other worldly tenents if the key here is the physical possibilities. I mean Pizza Does exist.
      I’m leaving my typo/misspelling cause it’s hilarious

  5. Isn’t Nunes a Russian asset? Trump is probably assigning the guy as a spy for Russia. Transfer him to toilet cleaning, then he’ll quit.

    1. Oligarch Trump set a precedent that President Biden can follow and just fire the guy without any viable reason. Like he did Comey and Vindman to name a few.

  6. Why isn’t she being charged with treason, trying to sell US info the a foreign country? Don’t tell me she only gets charged with theft.

    1. Cheap civilian DRONES over Whashington Biden Inauguration !!!!!!! Civilian cheap DRONES fly above national guard troops and fortifications !!!!!Protesters can use chinese made or us made Cheap DRONES to desrupt Joe Biden inauguration !!!!

  7. the PA woman who wanted to send pelosi’s computer to russia? she should be tried for treason. this is absurd! these ppl are patritots? what a joke.

    1. @THE ANGRY QUAD no problem for you cause your prophet chump works for Russia yeah nothing he will hide. Stupidest question of the week

    2. @Donnie BunkerBoi “MY PROPHET?” Where’d you come up with that assumption? Let alone your proof (i guess you mean Trump) works for Russia?
      Back to third grade for you…….

    3. @THE ANGRY QUAD let me reverse, what’s the problem in sending Mitch McConell laptop to Russia if he has nothing to hide.
      Now are you naturally born stupid or just a follower of stupid cult?

  8. MR PRESIDENT ELECT PLEASE CONSIDER RE-INSTATING THE VINDMAN BROTHER’S AS SOON AS PRESIDENTIALLY POSSIBLE !! THANK YOU.

    1. While you are at it…Joe needs to tear down the wall and let in the caravan of people from South America. They are on the way. Lets hope he doesn’t build more cages like he did with Obama🤞🤞🤔

  9. Trump supporters trust russia more then an elected official here. Hmm almost like exactly what putin wanted over these 4 years.

    1. And the Biden’s love China. Why not they made them millionaires. Corruption at it’s finest the Biden clan.

    2. Maybe for someone like you who was fooled into believing he was a Russian agent. For me…These last 4 yrs have been fantastic for my community.  Everyone had jobs, our household incomes were up, my investments were high! Just peace and prosperity and the only folks upset were powerless Dems and China.  2024👍

  10. brilliantly said, ty everyone. and yes, there are absolutely some immediate changes that must be made on the 20th, after 12 noon, for national security!

  11. These people who broke the rules did this because they had allegiance with a tv personality and not their country. Now all those people are facing consequences and jail time. Government will always win at the end of the day, and if you don’t like it, go move to a different country and see how far your freedom will go there.

  12. Trump’s inauguration crowd will certainly be bigger than Joe Biden’s. The great thing about Joe is that he will concede that truth without resistance and will probably not care. He just loves America….PERIOD!

  13. Since when is sending US government documents to Russia or supporting a despot patriotic? Those who attacked our capitol with murder in mind, including the liars who incited the insurrection, are traitors. Blindly supporting authoritarian usurpers of democracy is anything but patriotic. Without a well-informed electorate capable of reasoning, democracy is doomed,.

  14. When Trump accused the Democrats of running a “deep state”, it should have been obvious that he was plotting to instate his own deep state.
