    1. @M Hall I’ve yet to see any substantive content from you arguing your case – it’s all platitudes and nonsense. Now go home and clean that tooth – you’re stinking up the joint.

    2. M hall….they really may, but you won’t even get close to the white house as long as trump is your candidate. By comparison it’s easy to win a gerrymandered congressional district compared to the WH. Just remember, trump has NEVER won the popular vote, the senate and house aren’t indicative of the national picture.

  1. The fact that it only took 9 seconds to relay the message indicates that the instructions were communicated prior to the attack.

    1. @SuperMutant2099 Im independent, I think these leftists are bleeding heart weak willed people. that being said, your orange god is guilty, you know it, we all know it. and I’m super p*ssed its us in the middle that will have to stand up against Trump’s fascism…… because the left is too weak to understand there is a time and place for everything and the time and place for patty cake with fascists is over…

    2. @Arma Ellis Problem is that what democrats see things that aren’t there. Then lets side get away with many crimes. Including their presidents. Speaker of the house. Vice presidents. Fauci.

    3. One question: Why,after 4 years of investigating over 10 of his crimes, is trump free and can still run for president, after 1 – Stealing top secret docs, 2 – lying about it?? 3 -obstruction and espionage is a 20 yr sentence.
      4 – Trying to steal votes,in atlanta on the PHONE!
      5 – capital attack,etc.
      6 – quid pro quo in ukraine.
      7 – Wire fraud lying about assets.
      Why is trump allowed to have rallys?? Run again??
      OUTRAGEOUS !

    4. @SuperMutant2099 Assuming the conspiracy theory about Epps inciting this is true, which it isn’t, what does that say about the gullible MAGAs who attacked our Capitol for him?

    1. there are times we do not respond because we have to be very careful in responding because the times we are living in are not very good. but if you live in CT and I also live in CT, I think it’s great that we talk. Katie, I’m free to chat anytime you want.@Katie James

    1. SPIN Cycle of the corrupt media 🙁

      To the voters:

      ACTUALLY OBSERVE THE WORLD AROUND YOU AND STOP VOTING FOR DEMOCRATS IN DEMOCRAT RUINED CITIES. I AM NEITHER A (D) NOR AN (R) BUT THE EVIDENCE SPEAKS FOR ITSELF IN PLACES LIKE CHICAGO, ATLANTA, BALTIMORE, WASHINGTON D.C. AND MANY OTHER PLACES. VIOLENCE, CORRUPTION , HOMELESS AND ECONOMIES IN THESE AREAS ARE RUINED. THEY LIKE TO KEEP THINGS SEVERELY MESSED UP AND BROKEN DEMANDING MORE AND MORE $ TO FIX THE PROBLEMS THEY HELPED CREATE, PLACING BLAME EVERYWHERE BUT WHERE IT BELONGS, CREATING DIVISION AND DIVERSION WHENEVER POSSIBLE INCLUDING INVENTING NEW WAYS TO DIVIDE THE PUBLIC, THE PROBLEMS NEVER EVER DISAPPEAR BUT THE $$$$ ALWAYS ALWAYS DOES.

    2. @Louise Collard haha.. you delicate flower.
      Do need the narrative that we’re Russia bots because you’re pathetic.
      Don’t run over kids you think are “Russian bots” alright lady?

  2. They know who answered the call, so question them under Oath and find out who made the call,it’s not that hard!!!!🤔

    1. @XVI you called it. Thank you. One day, years later, it’ll be neat at family gatherings to see how the MAGAts will claim “That Trump family was no good. Your grandma and I always had a hunch!”

    2. @4:20 PM actually the backdoor is them having followers who swallow the bs and ask for more. Anyone still saying they would vote for the Cheeto watches only FAUX and should be the ones not caring gallows but being carried to them.

  3. Whitehouse is calling just to check on whether the gallows were up and ready. Rioter says “tell Mr. President, they are up, just as he requested.”

    1. George jones…a right wing nut just like the rest of the people who participated in the attempted insurrection. Duh.

    1. Keep making up lies thinking it will get you somewhere. You all worship Biden ..who’s a confessed liar and cheat. And your following him down down down

    2. They’re probably are. It just makes you scratch your head and think you guys were really so stupid to see you were going to overthrow the government but even more so you just used your personal cell phones to plan at all and use government phones to plan it and just like the stupid rioters pinging their locations posting all over social media all their crimes and what they did and who they were with. Just um… ya stupid. But a stupidity we are thankful for now

  4. “Failure to report a crime, also known as misprision of a felony, is a crime committed when someone is aware that a felony has been committed but fails to disclose it to the authorities.”

    1. @Mr Popeye No. That’s called being a patriot, when the crime is attempting to overthrow our government.

      Only a FAKTRIOT would think of that as “snitching”.

      Only TRAITORS support a TRAITOR.

    2. IF THAT WERE THE CASE THEN MORE CRIMES IN AMERICA WOULD HAVE BEEN SOLVED BUT IT’S HARD TO PROVE WHAT SOMEONE DOES OR DOESN’T KNOW AIN’T IT?! WHAT ARE THE COPS GONNA DO BEAT A CONFESSION OUTTA EVERYONE WHO WUZ AROUND THE SCENE OF THE CRIME AT THE TIME 😂😅🤣

    3. Would that be like joe telling hunter.. I think your in the clear son? After clear evidence of disgusting and criminal behavior was recorded of him and shown to the world? How many people has joe locked up for crack? Everyone else but his crackhead son. Disgusting liars

    1. He has turned state as some would say haha. Basically he struck a deal for immunity which I think he may or may not have premeditated I think he knew that this plot may not work and probably wasn’t going to work so he kept all the proof in case he needed it which as it turns out he does need but I think he went along with it just to see if it would work anyways

    1. They did, and Trump pardoned his own cronies (which should have been blocked for obvious reasons) Several hundred capital rioters have already been sentenced, law caught up to Bannon – and Trump and his associates will soon follow – we’ll find out Wed – but I see Trump indicted and jailed before the end of the year.
      …I feel ya though – frickin nearly 2 yrs later and that orange psychopath is still walking free ???

    2. I know but… we don’t want Trump Tarts trying to blow up buildings and kidnap people so it’s going slowly making sure that everything is done by the book to the T. It’s funny how doing things the right legal way takes longer than just trying to cheat through

    3. @gacj2010 it’s real peculiar to me how you people seem to think that all the media Outlets got it wrong EXCEPT for Fox 🤣 u not that naive. 🤔

  5. In forty years of life I was never politically motivated to vote or get involved with politics but the four years Donald Trump was in power has made it very clear that criminals and the insane have decided to take up politics in big way and the republican party is embarrassing these known criminals and disturbing candidates I have literally developed an ulcer because of the anger I feel knowing that people like Donald Trump can be elected and given authority over America’s citizens so if like me you just assumed that heartless violent and lying criminals couldn’t possibly be an elected official we have been proved wrong so please stand up be counted make a difference donate your time or money change minds that have been lied to do anything you can to get honest caring and respectful leaders in the position to make a difference don’t let your vote be taken away with lies and election deniers help protect fair and open voting

  6. A key unknown gap about Mike Flynn (‘the fifth’) regards his link to his brother a senior level military official in the Pentagon [Lt. Gen Charles Flynn, former Army Deputy Chief of Staff for Operations, Plans and Training] and how it relates to the delay in providing military support to the overwhelmed Capitol police.

    1. Mike Flynn is doing Qanon still and apparently he is going to be trumps VP pick for 2024 according to the recent Qanon documentary that was just broadcast in August/Sept. 2022!! It’s a 4 part series that YouTube has available! Everyone should watch it!

    2. And Flynn should have known about securing classified documents. The MarALago document location may have served a higher purpose had J6 coup not failed. Leverage to force military and intelligence community to align with regime?????

    1. If that were true? Insta arrest, easy. Sadly, for you, it’s not. The stupid comment did, however, get you 21 likes, so at least you got that going for you.

    1. @Paul Wilson you either didn’t watch the video or intentionally being blind as the other comment stated. The fact that you think you “got em” is hilarious

    2. @Bert Saenz 1:05 “ not necessarily illegal” Did you watch the same vid? One word response “pathetic “? Suggest possible connections? All crimes in your mind.

    3. Paul wilson….since you asked. It’s evidence that the white house had a role in the planning of the attempted insurrection. So that would be sedition, assault, trespassing, attempting to hinder a governmental process, and then conspiracy for all the above named as well. Possibly RICO predicates as well. Any more questions I can help you with?

  7. You’d think that someone who seems to have so much to hide would have just come clean to the Jan 6 committee right off the bat instead of thumbing his nose at them and defying them. The lawyers must be having a field day getting money off these criminals by having to defend them so much.

    1. Lawyers don’t have to defend their client against the 1/6 committee b/c…it’s just a committee and not a court of law.

    2. I think he had to play a few games first to find out if he was going to get immunity or not he got the thumbs up so now he’s feeling the beans and thank goodness for that I hope they didn’t give him immunity though he should just get a reduced sentence

  8. I have wondered for a while whether Meadows has struck a cooperation deal with DOJ. It struck me as odd not just that DOJ decided not to prosecute him over his failure to respond to a Congressional Subpoena but also that they took so long to announce that decision. It was almost as if there were long and complicated negotiations in the background. Not long after that announcement there was the raid of Mar-a-Lago. Meadows was probably in the know about that. Meadows has been very quiet recently although that could just be that he is acting on his lawyer’s advice so as not to worsen his legal position. If he is genuinely cooperating with the Feds then Trump is in a whole lot of trouble

    1. @Thomas Price when l go to a football game l see the action. I don’t need an inquiry to tell me what l saw.

      Trump said be there, it’ll be wild. Martians and Meerkats saw it. How come the main group who never saw it are Republicans? Heck, Thai and the Kalahari know about it.

    2. @Boris Probotkin But you weren’t there at Mar-A-Lago. Were you? Jan 6th?
      Guess then you never saw any action as a football game. You don’t seem to be very intelligent. I gather that from the things you’ve said in this string.

    3. @Thomas Priceagain you jump to delusions Grasshopper

      Trump said he can _mind morph_ their status. Explain that one away Einstein.

    4. @Boris Probotkin I guess you mean by mind morph you mean what Trump said about thinking declass. You know what Trump meant ( or maybe you don’t ) by that statement.

      One has to THINK SOMETHING before they can ACT ON SOMETHING is what I see Trump saying. He’s not a stupid man. Although you unintelligent lefties love to say that. That just shows you all’s
      ignorance and hatefulness. None of you are at peace with yourselves. Your speech betrays you all.

    1. the fact that these people are still not in Guantanamo withOUT a trial since they don’t care about due process or law

    2. Because there won’t be any indictments!!!! This is all for media profit. i guess they dont want a civil war in america before election day.
      But, If nothing happens day after election day,then its all a crock of s**t for media profit, and trump will be reelected in 2024. These CNN and msnbc anchors even mention when TRUMP RUNS AGAIN.
      What?? I expected trump IN A JUMPSUIT by now,but they’re talking like trump is running in 2024, like nothing happened. Outrageous!!.
      January 6 attack and two years later, nothing on it??No indictments for trump

  9. I had heard about the call earlier this morning, but they hadn’t named Meadows yet

    The question at this point would see to be is Meadows going to go down for the orange tyrant or will he roll

    The call could have been 2 seconds. It shows a direct link between the administration and the insurrectionists
    It doesn’t take a lot of time to say, ‘it’s a go’

  10. I wonder if the call was made after Meadows text from Ginny Thomas? Because by the text message from her she was pressuring the hell out of him.
