  1. Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

    1. @alex sanchez Brian Sicknick having a heart attack does not destroy the notion that the insurrection was a deadly attack..you are like all the other devil liars, mixing truth and lies to further your narrative. You aren’t anything but a trashcan full of used up phrases and talking points, nothing to offer anyone or anything. You’re probably terrible at your job too.

    2. @Kimberly Winters In what possible way was the “insurrection” an attack? You’re either blowing it out of proportion just to smear Trump supporters or you’re as dumb as anybody who believes what the “experts” tell you.

    3. @Chaser of the Light LOL, that’s funny. Got any more conspiracy theories? Maybe Trump is colluding with aliens? Or Greg Abbott is recruiting a secret army in Panama to invade Mexico?

    1. Neo liberals are a cult of the wealthy class. The neo liberal class assigned the task of grand taskmaster Satan. Strong hand Baby butchery and stronghand human trafficking. The cultivation of the poverty of human spirit. Satanic Death Camp 101. Yes, yes master Fauci of the neo liberal strangelove.

    2. @G.E. Martin Lol..now that you put it like that yes..you’re correct. In fact he’s probably the best at it. Such a shame that anyone would support an obvious conman.

    1. @You Mthafkas In Trouble You Mthafkas In Trouble aug 13th – the day all the “my pillows” go flat!

    2. @Antonjlavey Trump lost the popular vote twice a returdican will never win a popular vote again. Their ideas represent a small minority. A large portion of his supporters are there because they can’t imagine being treated like people of color.

  2. Ari: They’re not afraid everyone else is just like them; they’re afraid everyone else has gotten the jump on them.

    1. Nah. Lindell hands you another *L* for for Trump’s forehead while Ari gives you bulletproof evidence of GQP election fraud chicanery- and your kneejerk reaction is to invent yet another *never-ending-crack-pipe-conspiracy. The GQP you know is the only one.*

  3. GOP devolved into GQP the minute Trump.lossed the election .
    Mesa County , Ms Peters has to be brought up on charges: she took the Quanon side.

    1. @Jimmy Wayne There was an East Coast State, I believe Massachusetts, who was recently sued by a Police Officer Applicant.
      His application was denied because he was “Too Smart.” He sued.
      The courts ruled that Being Too Smart is sufficient cause to deny employment, as a Policeman.

      You were saying, DARLING?

    2. @MarketSmash No, but thieves and liars think that everyone else are thieves and liars. It’s a non-generalizable concept. It’s like the idea that you should eat before you go to the grocery store so that you don’t over purchase. Well, if drink before you go to the liquor store you are guaranteed to over purchase. You see how some concepts are not generalizable but still valid?

    1. Neo liberals are a cult of the wealthy class. The neo liberal class assigned the task of grand taskmaster Satan. Strong hand Baby butchery and stronghand human trafficking. The cultivation of the poverty of human spirit. Satanic Death Camp 101. Yes, yes master Fauci of the neo liberal strangelove.

    2. @Do-Bee Brothers Thank you for your satirical sendup of Qanon-supporting Trump Republicans. We know how ridiculous they are.

    1. the man that cheat on his wife will be fast to accuse her of having a lover on the side. AND be very hypocritical about it.

    2. Neo liberals are a cult of the wealthy class. The neo liberal class assigned the task of grand taskmaster Satan. Strong hand Baby butchery and stronghand human trafficking. The cultivation of the poverty of human spirit. Satanic Death Camp 101. Yes, yes master Fauci of the neo liberal strangelove.

    3. @Do-Bee Brothers No they joined the CCP to try to get control of the USA forever. It’s not only in politics but Hollywood and sports. But it’s all over the world. We need to expose these people.

    1. @Do-Bee Brothers Hey troll, you’re not a Godly person or a pious one… everyone sees who the evil one is.

  4. Once you introduce the concept of *necessary evil* into your moral universe, you’ve proven that you’re willing to commit any atrocity to gain power. Slavery, genocide, fascism, hatred of women–all excused by Republicans as “necessary evils.”

    1. Neo liberals are a cult of the wealthy class. The neo liberal class assigned the task of grand taskmaster Satan. Strong hand Baby butchery and stronghand human trafficking. The cultivation of the poverty of human spirit. Satanic Death Camp 101. Yes, yes master Fauci of the neo liberal strangelove.

    2. @Michael Wiebers Yeah, scary isn’t it? Preoccupied by ridiculous stories with no evidence while ignoring what is in plane view. Christianity pushes this idea of ‘revealed truth’ that is predicated on the same thought process, or lack there off. The GOP has become a full on cult movement and we could see full on religious war in the US.

    1. Confessed what? Disputing election results, and calling for a peaceful protest — which are encouraged in supposed democracies like this one? Face it, your precious Jan 6 commission will hit a dead end just like everything else the Democrats and their Republican minions tried to pull off.

    2. @alex sanchez The “dead end” were always the Republican Trump cult members in the Senate, who just ignored all evidence. They have no say in the actual criminal investigations, so there will be a very different outcome.
      What method are you using to verify your “evidence”? QAnon or white supremacy websites? If honesty is still a value for you after five years of lies, be honest with yourself. Btw, happy reinstatement day!

    3. @Etothe2iPi “QAnon and white supremacist websites” are questionable, albeit reliable compared to a FOX or CNN — they’ve been warning about about a possible lab origin of COVID and vaccine passports a year before the corporate media tried to take credit for them.

      And on the subject of every shenanigan by the Democrats to disgrace Trump, they had plenty of help from the Republicans (we call those RINOs). Such examples are/were Liz Cheyney, Mitt Romney, Lisa Murkowski, and countless others. They couldn’t remove Trump from office even with their help. Such losers, truly.

    4. Neo liberals are a cult of the wealthy class. The neo liberal class assigned the task of grand taskmaster Satan. Strong hand Baby butchery and stronghand human trafficking. The cultivation of the poverty of human spirit. Satanic Death Camp 101. Yes, yes master Fauci of the neo liberal strangelove.

    1. @Bill Rodriguez The Republican Party is the party of the KKK. You should stay in Russia and out of American politics.

    1. @alex sanchez more like beating cops with flagpoles, spraying chemicals in their eyes, yelling “you’re going to die tonight”. Definitely sounds like nothing. Bunch of sore losers.

    2. @Chuck Robinson Sounds like it would be a fiery yet peaceful demonstration… minus the fire, and if it ever went down like that.

    3. @KadiusBlack They’re imprisoned because career politicians began abusing the Insurrection Act. The actual protest itself was relatively peaceful compared to the George Floyd and Jacob Blake race riots we had last year, or the “Summer of Love” as Seattle mayor, Jenny Durkin, so eloquently put it.

    4. @alex sanchez The difference between the BLM protests and the MAGA protestors is that black people are protesting something that is real and the MAGA ‘protestors’ showed up to reverse and election they lost legitimately because trump wanted to stay in power and so lied for months about the election.

    1. @Philip Clarke But the premise of your question was false. You stated that white people were worried about becoming a minority, when in fact they are already a minority in the world, and always have been.

    2. @Archie Clements oh!! Really i guess you are right that’s way we have reenactments of the civil war and carry our confederate flags, oh! What that’s you guy’s.
      Come up with something better.

    3. @Archie Clements well you may be a 🐦 but I’m a part of mankind. I don’t have a problem with anyone except people who think that the complexion of their skin makes them superhuman.
      I bet if you were on a boat in the ocean and it sunk, you wouldn’t care what color my skin was.
      You are a birdbrain and its hard for a birdbrain to function in a human society.

    4. @Dan Alexander Audio lol! Fredum ugh im over here quoting my favorite movie braveheart, I know its not historically accurate however I have a crush on Celtic culture and history! The ancestral heritage it actually reminds me of my African tribalism.

    5. @Archie Clements And America has never paid for it. They should, but yet we remain loyal to this country. Which is more than you can say.

    1. Neo liberals are a cult of the wealthy class. The neo liberal class assigned the task of grand taskmaster Satan. Strong hand Baby butchery and stronghand human trafficking. The cultivation of the poverty of human spirit. Satanic Death Camp 101. Yes, yes master Fauci of the neo liberal strangelove.

    2. @Do-Bee Brothers Nice to see you copy and paste your ignorance everywhere… Have your realized yet that your the villain in this story? No.. ok

  5. Remember when Texas AG said that “Texas would have turned Blue if he had not done what he did” it should be investigated to find out just what he did to prevent it!

    1. @alex sanchez There is a huge difference between occupying a police house to protest cops killing people on camera and the people who showed up to change the election results of the United States because trump ranted lies for months about the election. There’s a huge difference between the two.

    2. I want to see an investigation into the Epstein murder ?

      Donnie The Dumbo Narcissist lied about ObamaGate ? Then further lied about not knowing Epstein and Maxwell ?
      One time slapper Hitler wanna be 45 has alot to hide ?

  6. What Republicans mean by election fraud is “people we don’t think ought to be able to vote are legally voting, NO FAIR!”

    1. Neo liberals are a cult of the wealthy class. The neo liberal class assigned the task of grand taskmaster Satan. Strong hand Baby butchery and stronghand human trafficking. The cultivation of the poverty of human spirit. Satanic Death Camp 101. Yes, yes master Fauci of the neo liberal strangelove.

    2. They were taught that the left is immoral and evil so anyway they can “do god’s will” is acceptable, they look at “God’s” law as supreme and man’s law secondary or even obsolete. Their belief that they are above the rest of us is fueling their self righteous indignation.
      We should all be prepared for anything because now…that’s what they are capable of .

    3. @Do-Bee Brothers the belief that your side is the moral authority is a misnomer. It doesn’t have to be proven with words why you aren’t. All the actions of the right are evident. You all betray your hidden motives with your irrational and blatant violence and racism. Not clever enough to hide such things from reality, you embrace the wicked in the name of patriotism, false prophets are your idols and you exult a devil like he’s god. like a very intuitive man once said…the cruelty is the point.
      You now enjoy the cruelty and celebrate it.

  7. If the clerk provided the codes she and anyone working with her should be charged and tried for espionage.

    1. Neo liberals are a cult of the wealthy class. The neo liberal class assigned the task of grand taskmaster Satan. Strong hand Baby butchery and stronghand human trafficking. The cultivation of the poverty of human spirit. Satanic Death Camp 101. Yes, yes master Fauci of the neo liberal strangelove.

  8. They are bunch of ego-centered liars. Once they lied, their egos wouldn’t admit that they lied. So they lied more to cover up the lies. Their egos wouldn’t want to back down. So they lied again.
