WATCH: Michigan Senate Majority Leader Says Capitol Takeover Was ‘Staged’ and Mitch McConnell was in on it wanting it to be a 'Mess' so Trump could be Impeached in Secretly Recorded Convo

Michigan State Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey was caught on camera telling officials from the Hillsdale County Republican Party that the Capitol takeover was “staged” and a “hoax.”

In the footage, which is over an hour long, Shirkey also says that Mitch McConnell “was part of it… They wanted to have a mess” so that they could impeach Donald Trump.

The video was posted on YouTube by Hillsdale County Republican Party Secretary Jon Smith, who is upset with Shirkey for repeatedly caving to Democrats.

During the conversation, Shirkey says that the January 6 protest “wasn’t Trump people.”

“That’s been a hoax from day one, that was all pre-arranged,” Shirkey adds, asserting that the people “went in on separate buses, that was all arranged by somebody that was funding everyone.”

Yes. That was weird about witnesses. First Democrats and Republicans were all for it, then the next thing you know they were against it.

I think you’re right. Both parties looked at the witness list and realized it wouldn’t be good for any of them.

If anyone doesn’t see where we stand at this point, they are willfully ignorant.

If anyone doesn’t see where we stand at this point, they are willfully ignorant on purpose.

From everything I have read and heard, it appears that the leftist agents provocateur, who were breaking windows and doors to get in, were primarily on the east side of the Capitol, where they would have been out of sight of most of the Trump supporters, who were gathering on the west side. Most of the actual Trump supporters who entered the building appear to have done that on the west side, at the urging of “friendly” police officers who were inexplicably opening the doors and guiding them inside for what many thought was an opportunity to tour the building.

It was a trap intended to make the Trump supporters the unwitting fall guys.

Bingo! Mitch and Nancy would have been ratted out and exposed as the culprits behind the Capitol seige.

Wouldn’t that make McConnell and others who plotted responsible for the deaths?

In a sane world with justice instead of the SJWBS from the lefties and rectums like McConnell.

“That’s been a hoax from day one, that was all pre-arranged,” Shirkey adds, asserting that the people “went in on separate buses, that was all arranged by somebody that was funding everyone.”It was a false flag operation from the get go.

And the rush to impeach was done simply because they wanted to act before the truth got out.

Cry Wolf once, next time there will be no one to “protect” them.

Trump, so much winning!

I'm betting Mitch had nightmares and wish he could take it all back...first...because it's only his personal opinion and does not belong as a speech on the Senate floor...

and second because he used the President's support to get re-elected.

In my opinion, this man has no insider information. He was simply stating what he believes to be true and I’m sure everyone of us has stated something very similar. Unfortunately, this is anything but a smoking gun.

I think a lot of repubs would have convicted..... But they are literally, physically scared of the 75 million. Scared..... and rightfully so.

I agree. Swampers, both Democrat and Republican are terrified of us.

“The People have, yet again, been attacked by Their Government?...Say it isn’t so Mitch.”

It’s stunnng how few remember the organized GOVERNMENT-led mass murders of the last century (not to mention those before it). People act like it’s a crazy conspiracy theory to imagine it happening today.

Three basic issues with the witness list: (1) 300-plus folks means this hearing would have gone to the end of March (I don’t think any of them wanted that). (2) All witnesses would be under oath, and it just opens up a big mess later if they say something that wasn’t true. (3) Eventually, by the end....a clear picture of the 6th would emerge, and lack of leadership from Pelosi/Schumer/McConnell would have obvious.

I only have it as 3rd hand information, but heard from someone who was there that things at the protest were cool until some dodgy looking people showed up in some buses around midday.

We really shouldn’t let the mentally ill serve in government. And we EXTRA shouldn’t listen to them like they’re anything but mentally ill. If you believe this for a second you’re an idiot. Really people STOP BELIEVING OBVIOUSLY STUPID CONSPIRACY NONSENSE.

“A lot of people lack the foresight to think ahead.”

I see what you did there. Had to do a double take, cause It thought it read “foreskin”.”. What does that have to do with thinking ahead?
