Colorado Congresswoman Diana DeGette, one of nine House Democrats selected to prosecute President Donald Trump's second impeachment case, said her argument is simple: he told the rioters where and when to stage the insurrection.
"Donald Trump told those people to come to Washington to stop the certification of the election. Then when they all got to the White House, invited by him, he told them to march up Pennsylvania Avenue and to stop the count and he had all kinds of references to violence and everything else. So, they're all guilty," DeGette told MSNBC Sunday.
"We can't let this go," she reiterated several times.

"And they can't now point the finger at each other and say, 'Well he said it, so I'm not guilty.' It's part of the criminal conspiracy. And the whole conspiracy was designed to undermine our democratic process and our democracy. It's mind-boggling to think about what a serious threat that was from our own sitting president of the United States," DeGette added.
MSNBC host Ali Velshi noted that many of the Trump supporters present on the day of the Capitol riots are making the legal argument that "they were here [in Washington D.C.] because the president told them to be here."

My footage from January 6 trip... i was there at 10 am til about 1 pm

Nothing short of war will fix this. Stopping this level of propaganda is like peeing into a tidal wave.
Nice video! I can see some real dangerous subversives there...I heard somebody say “God bless America.”
'Let's All Remain Peaceful,' Says Trump In Clear Incitement To Violence
Don’t be surprised when they come after you. I know that sooner or later they are coming after me. And all Trump supporters. It is the way Communists operate. They will congratulate on President and his family first. Then they will go after those who supported him with the same hatred and venom that they went after President Trump. Once the Democrats get their unholy trio. Biden, Harris, Pelosi. Schumer ensconced in Power and the White House it is Katie Bar the Door. But that is what the people so hopefully they will get a bellyful.
They were there because congress wasn’t doing their job... that being, to VERIFY the vote was accurate and not stolen. especially if there was any foreign interference.
as it turns out, as per DNI Radcliffe’s report, there was foreign involvement with the election. tho he didn’t spell out exactly that involvement, all the evidence has been available for more then a month.
and when congress certified the election, thereby saying there was no interference... they not only committed a FELONY but by working with the chinese, they also committed TREASON
and they know they’ve been caught.
their move? projection. they’re busy trying to blame anyone else for their crime hoping no one will look at them and hold them accountable.
we’ve seen the state courts are corrupt. governors as well, some taking money to insure the installation of the machines. even judges shirking their responsibility and badly compromised via child porn and pedophilia. Even the joint chiefs claim they’re ok with china installing a puppet. mind boggling.
question is... are there enough Americans in power who are untainted by corruption to do something about it.
Our side had better push back hard on all this non-stop Goebbels Big Lie noise. And we can start by non-stop always saying how the RATS and the Goebbels press egged on Antifa when they were attacking federal buildings.
Were the events of Jan 6 a real insurrection, it would’ve been massive.. it would’ve been armed.. and most of all, it would’ve been successful.
My head hurts from the illogical nature of the Left’s “reasoning.”
Hey, if people actually had the right to freely assemble, the Founders would have put it in the Constitution.
At a time when progressivism insists that 2+2 (does not) = 4 it is idle to believe that actual facts have anything to do with these proceedings. Still, we have to argue the facts not for contemporary journalism or for contemporary politics but for history to be written in 2041.
You are correct. And we have proven to them that we are not going to fight. Talking does no good. Once they get their unholy quartet ensconced in Power and the White House, things will get a hell uv a lot worse. Quick. The unholy consisting of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, and last but not least Charles Schumer. A more evil foursome has not existed in the annuals of history. Not one of the four have any principals nor do they have a conscience to guide them. Therefore, their thoughts and actions are evil all the time.
Too late. No one with any actual power is pushing back.
Exactly. If that had been the case, there would have been no electoral college vote in the dark of night. And people would sure not have returned to their hotels!
No, Trump Isn’t Guilty of Incitement
Inflaming emotions isn’t a crime. The president didn’t mention violence, much less provoke it.
Corrected for accuracy.
“I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.” -Donald J. Trump
