‘But what really frosts my a## is that there are so-called REPUBLICANS parroting the Dem talking points. McConnell. Romney. The usual RINOs. Eg: “Cherry picked footage”, etc. No. The “cherry picked footage” was the total BS that the Jan 6 committee selectively and carefully edited to craft a false narrative. Anyone who saw Tucker’s segment last night now realizes that fully.”

If you expect Senate Republicans to defend the rights guaranteed in the Constitution they swore an oath to defend, you will be consistently disappointed. They showed their true colors in not expressing outrage at the lengthy confinement of hundreds of conservative protestors without due process of law.

January 6th was nothing more than a counterintelligence operation carried out by federal agencies. The subsequent hearings were merely a filter gateway to adhere to the psy-ops messaging, optics, and narrative.

Mitch is a Communist, along with the former democratic party and they need to be banned from the USA.

Interesting that McConnell and the police chief weren’t concerned about the cherry-picking by the Media-Dem Party in their attempt to depict a shortlived fairly tame riot as an “armed and deadly insurrection”. Carlson at least acknowledged that there was a riot by a rather small number of people, quite possibly fueled by government agents, but the overwhelming majority of those in attendance that day were peaceful. Not fiery but peaceful, but really peaceful.

Billions to Ukrainian, depleted armed forces, social unrest, wide open borders, the more this J6 scam falls apart it becomes clearer why Uniparty is doing what’s it’s doing.

The country is broke, infiltrated with enemy combatants, terror organizations run rampant with no fear of real criminal prosecution.

I believe we are approaching the tipping point, there will be blood, suffering as the Republic comes under open attack from several directions.

The goal of Communism has always been the overthrow of the United States and the installation of a One World Government and the enslavement of what remains of the human race.

The fact that so many Republican Senators supported Mitch is reason enough to terminate with extreme prejudice the Republican Party.

Putin Asks Reporter If USA, 'Assassinated' Ashli Babbitt!’

Townhall.com ^ | June 15, 2021 | Leah Barkoukis

During an interview with NBC News, Putin said Russia was no worse than the United States in this regard, and used the government's handling of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot as an example.

Putin showed flashes of defiance when he was asked whether it was a "coincidence" that several other political rivals had been assassinated in recent years.

"We don't have this kind of habit, of assassinating anybody," Putin said when he was asked whether he ordered Navalny killed. (NBC News)

He then countered by asking whether the U.S. was guilty of assassinating Ashli Babbitt during the Capitol riot.

“Secondly, I want to ask you: Did you order the assassination of the woman who walked into the Congress and who was shot and killed by a policeman?” Putin said. “Do you know that 450 individuals were arrested after entering Congress? And they didn’t go there to steal a laptop. They came with political demands. 450 people have been detained. They’re facing jail time, from 15 to 20 years. And they came to Congress with political demands. Isn’t that persecution for political opinions?”

It was asked that. He said he couldn't answer it because if the people knew there wee hundreds of paid FBI informants at the Capital it wouldn't look good.

Sauntering, meandering, wandering, rioting — which words don’t go together? Hint: three of them were what nearly all of the “insurrectionists” were doing.

There is no way in heaven that the capital police chief could possibly characterize the vast majority of what occurred as violent.

There was not even any damage inside the capital except for one broken window that I’m aware of and the woman involved was shot to death.

He isn't done yet. There's still 39,999 hrs to edit.

Wait until he gets to the subject of Trump's role. The entire J6 BS is all about Trump. Everything else is as worthless as Twitter files

Will Tucker AKA (never-Trump) Fox/Murdoch/Dominion crucify or exonerate Trump?

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) says Fox News made “a mistake” by depicting Jan. 6, 2021, as a largely peaceful if chaotic protest, a revision of history that the Capitol Police chief criticized as “offensive” and “misleading.”

The riot was largely peaceful until the agitators and government agents started the violence that was set up in advance by the Democrats and other Trump haters.

The demonstration was largely peaceful. Why are Republicans like Mitch McConnell turning their back to Americans being treated unjustly?

Why is Mitch McConnell not defending the innocents caught in the rat trap?

Why is Mitch McConnell supporting the highly questionable narrative put forth by the Democrats?

Why isn't Mitch McConnell asking why the QAnon Shamon was being taken around by the Capital police acting as tour guides?

Can Mitch McConnell admit that the whole scene could have been a set up by the government?

Were there more than two hours of violence? How much was caused by the Police losing it and acting as rioters themselves?

Why did the Capital Police initially invite the public in and show them around? Is not that suspicious to Mitch McConnell?

The contrast is clear.

One could argue that in escorting the protestors the Capitol Police were trying to defuse the situation and get the protestors out with minimum violence.

But then one would have to explain to me why Ashli Babbitt was shot dead.

The lights are being shined on this entire thing and the right people are screaming.

Good!!
