@The Tweatles Try it
It was BLM wasn’t it, I’m so sorry for your loss
@Chris Jackson BLM-Biden loves minors.
My heart is with you. I’m so sorry. I hope you are having a good life.
Trump needs to be convicted, both for his own good, the good of the Republican Party and, most of all, for the good of America.
I’m calling bullsht to this fake crying and fake outrage! What about the millions of people affected by the riots wondering if their home or business was next?
This is out of control. OWN IT AND FCKING FIX IT!!! You don’t want me to fix it.
@Ron Swanson yep I had a friend who’s business was looted. Dems don’t give a crap about her.
You really sound like a bitter ex-girlfriend, President Trump has been out of office for a month and you still nanner on about him. Really pathetic.
Convict the con man.
May truth and justice prevail in America.
I hope this testamony gets through… I don’t understand why it wouldn’t.
The reason is the GOP, however, I think there will be some GOP
senators that will vote to convict though..
@Nun Yal sincerely hope they will come to their senses
@Marie Josée Huot Mitt Romney was the only one who had the balls to vote to convict last time, BUT, a LOT of those GOP senators were there & in danger when the capital was ATTACKED by tRUMP”S CULT FOLLOWERS! And 10 GOP members voted to impeach! So I would not be surprised if several GOP senators vote to convict. Time will tell.
@Nun Ya Yes., hopefully some of them have a conscience. This downward spiral has to stop or what comes next? It’s hard to believe it’s happening in the US… and I’m from Canada.
Well said my lady you are so right
I still don’t understand why those “stop the steal” republicans were all hiding like cowards during the attack, when those “patriots” were supposedly on their side? 🤔😅
Because it was antifa wearing trump apparel.
The mob couldn’t tell one side from the other…the congress all mixed together to confuse the rioters when they chanted “hang Mike Pence”
I would say that because they are cowards.
No politician was killed so most of congress members still play dumb games
I didn’t know that about about Rep Speier. This had to really draw back a lot of past trauma and pain for her. I hope every one of these terrorists, inçluding their leader, get the fullest of punishment available by law.
She talked about the experience two years ago on the 40th anniversary. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHMJlVOzO3Q
Andrea you’re a good soul and have been a wonderful journalist for years. I’m so sorry to say hearing you say “like it or not.” sounds a bit harsh. Otherwise smashing interview, and keep safe and well over the pond lassies.
brilliantly said, ty both! i remember watching it on tv that day as well, thinking at the time how glad i was to be here in America, where things like that could never happen…
So was Sandy Cortez!!! Oopsie Cortez lied of location and threat. In Cannon building 10 minutes away. This women was probably on Zoom.
Oh my God. I can’t begin to imagine her trauma. She is a powerful witness. The horror of realizing that she may not survive at the hands of her own countrymen and women.Real lives were lost that day and she had to find sanctuary with some members that may have been complicit in this attack. Hopefully justice will be served.
All victims that day need to testify.
“Remember this day forever”, “We love you, you’re very special” *IS NOT FREE SPEECH. IT’S BLATANT MOB BOSS THUGGERY*
Dilip k chatri
Covid-19 please food
That’s age and vodka love.
You’re colleagues across the isle were unaffected because they expected it, therefore they will acquit.
Ms. Speier survived two narcissistic psychopaths, somebody up there likes her.
If the crisis from the pandemic along with the murderous anarchy at the Capitol doesn’t get her republican colleagues to do their jobs, then nothing will.
