New Reporting Shows The Careful Coordination Of The Capitol Attack | Deadline | MSNBC
There was death and destruction , that was the agenda. It had been said in so many ways. It’s going to be hard for Trump to separate himself from the insurrection.
Trump will never be able to separate himself from the Insurrection on The Capitol Building on January 6, 2021. IMO. Trump instigated and planned the Insurrection on The Capitol Building on January 6, 2021. Trump is a TRAITOR. Trump’s RepubliKKKan Thugs are also TRAITORS. IMO.
@TJ Not just IYHO, but in actual fact, so you don’t need to say IMHO. ✌
This massive riot was all premeditated by the trumps, Giulani and the Republican party.
though you are all correct, we are relying on a very corrupt and dysfunctional GOP to do the right thing. Never gonna happen. The ONLY power we, the people, have now is to vote each and every one of them out of office. Greene is going nowhere. That should tell you everything you need to know about the GOP.
They need to go after the head of the snake 🍊
It’s not a snake – it’s a hydra. Chop one head off and two new ones shoot up to replace it.
Actually, I think we need to take your advise but don’t stop with one. Go into the snake pit & get them done period.
@Fiona Anderson then go for the heart, their desire for power
But but your Honor, no one took a knee. We’re the true patriots.
how dare you knee for the flag but we can commit treason the double standard of Maga Nazi’s
Yes the same people who complain about kneeling for the flag, while they burn the constitution.
The flag means nothing on the cloth it’s printed on without the constitution……Deplorable insurrectionists.
Always remember the original “patriots” were traitors to King George as then there was no United States just British colonies, they only became patriots after they won. Don’t let Trumps “patriots” do the same.
I find it interesting that they are upset that they lost but it turn out that most trumpers never voted. So why are they upset that they lost something they gave up on?
Nobody remembers that he said in 2016 that if he lost to Hillary, the election was rigged. Its his go-to strategy.
That’s the thing everybody remembers that just like when he lost to Ted Cruz in Iowa that election was rigged. The man is incapable of telling the truth even though behind closed doors he admits that he knows he lost.
He also said it when he lost to Cruz in Iowa
He set up a committee to prove he won the popular vote. They disbanded without finding one piece of evidence. He said the election was rigged and he knew his campaign manager, Paul Manafort had given polling data to a Russian oligarch.
a cheater yells cheater first.
Pepperidge Farm and everybody else remembers Trump’s 2016 refusal to accept the result of the election if it went against him, and his pre-emptive claim of fraud, and his post-election unfounded lie that 3 million votes had been fraudulent. His responsibility for the DC Capitol riot began well before the 2016 election and extends through his whole presidency. The 2 months after election day were the thick icing on the sedition he had been building all along.
It’s like the GOP doesn’t know recordings of their lies exist.
Of course… and all of them know it. That’s what FASCISM is.
@WZ T Like John Sullivan AKA Jayden X? His videos are on his YT channel… (edit: typo)
people are already saying tump didnt call the virus a hoax. in just under one year.
@Old Grappler thing is- Trump is gone . We don’t have the daily chaos. This isn’t going to get lost in the shuffle.
@RobloxWorld you mean Trump! You gave Trump four years to distroy America and excusing every horrible thing he has done but you can’t give Biden one day to fix Trump’s mess. Trump has gone down in history as the worst president in America, a turnip would have done a better job then him!
All leaders of the insurrection must be held to account and punished
That NYT article describes it chronologically how all of this built up . I can only recommend to read it.
Trump has always lied about his failures and pretended they were instead successes.
Lost millions then proclaimed himself the “King of Debt”
Maybe he can crow about being the “King of Prison”.
Remove Mitch McConnell and all his ENABLERS…
SEDITION!!!
The election was stolen….but McConnell and Lindsey Graham got back in?!?? REALLY!
That would be the reality of it. It seems reality doesn’t focus for many.
The Republicans keep showing us how broken their party has become.
BECOME? It has always been a disgrace. In my 60 year old memory.
They are crumbling to dust
Look up Thomas Sowell and Larry Elder for some information.
Which is nothing in comparison to how blackened their souls have become.
Ya def, this huge attack, such coordination 😴, broke whatever. Billions and that includes government buildings of dollars of damage done by Democrats in there peaceful protest, 100s a people killed. You are right about the Republicans being a broken party, any party who lets Democratic Politicians, like Maxine Waters at a rally telling people to co whatever they have to, to let them no they are wrong, whether there at work, eating wherever. Then people start getting attacked at work walking down the street, and the Republicans say nothing, because if they do they get called a Racist, bunch of p****. At least you all are a bunch of morons, that is better than being a coward.
“”They thought the norms were gonna kick in…” Seriously?
Magical thinking
There is way more evidence behind the desk,if they really want to convicts.
I just hope that justices will be done to restore the trust and the truth.
Justice? You got to stop it was fair and square.
Credibility , admitting they lied WOULD COST THEM ALL THEIR CONGRESSIONAL SEATS AND FUTURE RE-ELECTION . REPUBLICANS WOULD BE SEEN FOR WHO THEY ARE , NO SCRUPLES
They are already seen that way, so who cares?
Delay the impeachment until we find all senators and congressmen who helped incite the capitol attack.
“Ride and die with it…” yep…the GOP no longer has ANY semblance of American democracy…
Yup. None.
And, 4 more years to solicit funds for bogus “election fraud investigations” from his followers, of which he pockets. At last count wasn’t it up to 4 million?
Whoops, last reply in response to different post…
The GOP trying to pull every procedural trick imaginable in order to avoid their TREASON being exposed.
All this for a lying con man,who wasn’t even a good game show host.
Or business man
Or insurrectionist.
Assuming McConnell cares about other lives would also be a mistake.
