  1. Trump has been screaming ” Go Wild” on January 6 but still Law enforcement didn’t take it seriously. In fact cops were taking selfies with these Terrorists. This is Appalling.

    1. I strongly suspect that tRumpists gave disruptive orders to the capitol police, but some of the capitol police were obviously abetting the terrorists.

    2. As a foreigner it is hard for me to understand why millions of Americans still think Trump won the election. Surely this cannot be real.

  2. These were not riots.!!! This was an insurrection.!! There is no difference between Osama Bin Laden and Donald Trump at this point.

    1. @frictionRx9
      You have more than one account gramps.
      No one agrees with you old fart.
      Not a Democrat, never have been.
      So continue to embarrass yourself and your lack of intellect will be made fun of everytime you post.
      Gotta go..
      Got a turbo to install and a business to run.
      REAL Republicans need their vehicles.
      Ciao..

    2. @don juran there’s no violence in a bank robbery, kidnapping, shoplifting, etc… but they’re all still crimes. Are you really that stupid Trump Trash.??

    1. @Tech ti storming the capital to pull down the American flag is NOT “preventing trampling of civil liberties”, it’s terroism & SHOULD be called out as such!

    2. @Cory Allen Who would care about a hornet’s nest when the country is at stake. They should take the gloves off and fight to destroy fascism.

    3. @Susan Grimm If you follow your logic about how to handle Trump, you’re basically making a case on how dangerous he is to America. It never turns out well for anyone assumed to be a tyrant and refuses to go away. He should have his day in court for his own benefit because it could be much worse for him and his cult.

    1. This incident from trump must not be seen without any severe consequence as it promotes others to act in the manner that is drown grading the constitution along with the people who believe in democracy and take again to unruly manner! Lock trump, Julianne and don jr the biggest fools of this country!!

    2. @Eric Lipten For years, I couldn’t understand regicide during the French Revolution, Russian Revolution, and the English Civil War, but it’s usually from tyrants who pose an ongoing threat, won’t go away, and refuse to respect the will of the people. He should be removed, tried, and sentenced to the maximum extent under the law.

    1. @Susan Grimm ,LMFAO!
      Yes, pick up your weapon and start a civil war, you would be wipe out in one day!

      Go find a safe place and cry a river of #magatears!

  3. Clear thinker, articulate, insightful, competent…get Chris Krebs back on the payroll and let him serve our nation now at a time his talents are sorely needed,

    1. @zenoist2 why would they, because of Trump’s whining because he can’t believe and won’t accept he lost. Because the man who so easily degrades others and calls them losers is a loser himself? Because there are people like you who are so ignorant and weak minded that when he opens his mouth they think they’re hearing from some kind of prophet? Get real. The man is the joke, unfit for office and the majority of Americans recognized this and made him a one term President. Next is holding him accountable and all those complicit, not pandering to your alternative reality.

    2. @Tech ti Accidently voted on your comment when trying to hit the ‘Read More’ link. Your equating BLM protests with what happened yesterday (instead of just commenting on one or the other) is a problem. Secondly, as Carl Sagan and many others repeatedly said: “Real patriots ask questions”. They don’t accept arguments from people they support without checking. They don’t believe an election was stolen because they are told so. They demand evidence first. Evidence is not rumor, hearsay, gossip, social media posts, politically aligned media, or anyone who directly benefits from you believing what they claim without producing the evidence. Patriots don’t fall for tactics as obvious and dishonest as Trump’s.

    3. @zenoist2 stop the lies and foolery please it’s getting old… if the elections are rigged then the gop senators and house reps that got reelected should be audited to right? stop it

    4. @Tech ti they are terrorist… they stormed a building of elected officials and looted it and destroyed elements of it if you find nothing wrong with that you will never be reached

  4. Use cell phone technology to identify every Domestic Terrorist who attacked the Capitol yesterday. Ping, ping, ping…

    1. I believe there will Not be a Republican Party left if they keep Trump in Power because he has now become a maniac & lunatic & will try to start a War with another country or let Russia come Right into the USA through his updated goons in the Defense Department, etc. in the next 13 days to stay in Power past January. He is a pathological liar & con artist like his press secretary, etc. Get rid of the bum now.

    2. The 25th amendment only states what should happen if a president is removed, resigns or dies. It does not provide a path to removal.

    3. Patricia Schwartz couldn’t have said it better. Trump has to be removed now! He is a traitor to his position and the USA.

    1. @Jason Jensen Chris Krebs actually did create the CISA website, which Trump promoted himself! Did you forget it was Trump that appointed him? Just like all the trump appointed judges who dimissed Trump’s lawsuits. Quit being a sheep jason. Trump doesn’t care about Americans

    2. @Jason Jensen Of course in your little world everything is upside down! I guess it isn’t a stretch to say you enjoyed what happened at the Capitol yesterday too!

    3. @Ahmad Abdullah I didn’t mind it what happened at the capital, much like you enjoyed antifa burning and looting.

    4. @Jason Jensen are you stupid he made sure it was a fair and secure election and if you don’t believe that you’re probably one of the ones that went to the capital and might be charged

    5. @Catherine Sorensen haha. Is that the devil speaking in you? Are you the one that cheated in the election to get the CCP of Biden elected?

    1. @Johnny Harry I have no idea what your point is. Why would I think CNN, etc has integrity? I listened to the speech and saw Lyin’ Ted’s interviews, and know all but one lawsuit as dismissed.

    2. @S RKH its not false. More then half of american believe it was fraud. You clowns screamed russia collusin for 4 years. So whats the problem?

    3. Truly despicable human being! I’m hoping he & all Trump’s enablers & cheer leaders go down with their master!

  5. The world is watching us. France and Germany have made there positions clear. Democracy is at stake.

    1. @R Wags Thanks. The Kiwis have always been good friends of America. Good job on managing Covid-19!

    2. It is true, I thought my country the UK was mental but American MAGAs have the crown. They know full well Trump lost the election but they dont like democracy so they decided to abandon it and take matters into their own hands, just like the Confederacy 150 years before.

  6. The police were told to stand down!! National guard wasn’t sent in until hours after?? This is what people in leadership wanted to happen!!!

    1. The Capitol police and D.C. National Guard are under the direct control of the President and Vice President.

    2. @Mr Rodgers Political Playtime No you go find an all communist 1 to live in. This is a Democratic Republic. I have no problem with people of color, I do have a problem with Marxist regardless of their color. BLM is Marxist, as well as a larger % of the dem party.

    3. @El Ram Honestly we would need another venue to discuss this to make any progress, like a Skype call or something like that. If you want to do that let me know: Johnny – a patriotic American.

  7. I have never seen a patriot throw the flag on the ground and replace it with a Trump flag. I still haven’t, but I did watch a Trumpist do it yesterday.

    1. “We love you, your very special, you were f&cked in the a$$ and it’s your right to get proper revenge but I urge you to be peaceful” is dog whisle for “you can’t let them do this to you, go invade the Senate”.

    2. Alvarado, You only proved how stupid you are because in the same speech you are referring to Trump specifically said he was not talking about white supremacists! Its pathetic and amazing that you are so dumb that you didn’t understand that! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    1. All this craziness was started 4 years ago by: The democrats,, MSNBC, CNN, and CBS. They mocked and attacked President Trump every single day! People are not stupid these media’s created treasonous acts against President Trump. Now everyone will understand why President Trump is acting and feeling the way he is!!

    2. @Akashes Klay All this craziness was started 4 years ago by: The democrats,, MSNBC, CNN, and CBS. They mocked and attacked President Trump every single day! People are not stupid these media’s created treasonous acts against President Trump. Now everyone will understand why President Trump is acting and feeling the way he is!!
