We just need 500,000 patriots to shop at their A.R. 15’s and put an end to this bullshit

one of the largest in American history in terms of the number of charges filed and the volume of evidence, which includes more than 15,000 hours of video

Stalinist show trials.

Merrick Garland in charge. I thought he was such a stand-up guy.

This charging is more than all the serious Antifa/BLM rioting, looting, arsons, attempted murders/blindings/wounding and actual murders in just a few weeks across the country.

Jan. 6, Patriot Day, scared the holy hell out of the ruling class.

I know it may not feel like it, but here we are almost in MAY and they are still obsessed with this. I’m tellin ya, the images of them cowering under desks, running like little children from a guy in a Viking helmet-—these affected them PROFOUNDLY. This is what the razor wire, troops in DC is about. This is what Trump’s impeachment was about-—he didn’t do anything wrong, other than the fact that HIS PEOPLE deeply humiliated the scrdiforous squidpickles. NONE of them will ever fully recover from that wound. That was THEIR house!!! Who were we to take possession of it?

I keep likening it to Doolittle’s raid, minimal in actual on-the-spot damage, but titanic in its repercussions.

No, I expect our elected representatives that are supposed to have the power to stop these things to get off their rear ends and stand up for the people that elected them. The Republicans are weak and corrupt. I can vote at the local level for the people that I hope will do the right thing, but no, I’m not a big vocal activist type of person. I can support in other ways though. I can’t do anything about corrupt judges, but people that I vote to put in power can and should, but they don’t. This is why I feel like I do.

No, it isn’t.

None of those people should ever have gone in there.

It is surprising that only 1 person was killed for transgressing our Nation’s Capitol building.


Absolutely. How dare some of the 80 million Trump voters protest their disenfranchisement. If Congress doesn’t want a few broken window they shouldn’t certify in a bipartisan manner elections that were brazenly stolen.

All well and good but that does little good if voters do not hold their reps politically accountable. So far there is little evidence that will happen.

They can also charge the social media instigators too. Expect that next. Finally they will charge Trump too.

Unless they committed violence or destroying something, the defense is they were invited in by the Capitol police. There’s videos of that, I believe.

I saw that video. Good defense if they were charged for trepassing.

They will get an extra 17 on the for the general uppityness. That’s a serious charge.

We won’t make it to the next election people. May as well cancel it now.

We're not quite there yet. But can you imagine what if we boycotted the next election? That would be the death of the American Republic.

Not sure this revolution ends at the ballot box. Not talking guns, but culture shifts are every bit as powerful.

Yes, Reagan kept the Russkies in check, but what killed them just as much was the cultural change of infusion from the west of liberal ideas. By 1987, Soviet mothers were no longer afraid of the state and were demanding their sons in Afghanistan come home. Likewise, the Soviets got to the point they could no longer deploy tanks to stop resistance in Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and Germany. Yet no one voted.
