More proof the January 6th fiasco is exactly that. A Democrat production where Americans are deprived their rights so Liberals can make their sick political point.

...the couple never entered the US Capitol on June 6, and were guilty only of being Trump supporters who were peacefully demonstrating.

Being a Trump supporter is the crime. The FBI is the official armed wing of the Dem Party and will hunt down and destroy any overt Trump supporter. The FBI can’t be reformed. They’ve learned they can get away with murder. No consequences.

It seems like an orchestrated intimidation operation by the left.


The left? The 1/6 committee is bipartisan. The GOP has done exactly nothing substantive to stop these police state tactics.

What the Nazis did to the Jews, Democrats will do to us.


It what the CCP and Putinist Russia does now. Yet some so-called conservatives cheer them on.

They are trying to make people cower and stop supporting President Trump. I’ll guessing there will be more of these raids from here to November.

Waiting for the NYT to share this with the world. Oh wait, that doesn’t fit their agenda. Ray Epps, however? Yes, the poor chap. I feel so sorry for him. /s

Of course it was a “ridiculous overkill”. These raids are designed to tell us that, ‘resistance is futile. They have the manpower & the firepower to over come all resistance.

Absolutely.... if you let them choose the battle ground.

They are really putting on a show for this circus show trial.
Wonder if there was something unrelated to 1/6 they were looking for?
And 1/6 was the excuse?

The POLICE are TOTALLY CORRUPT NOW! STAZI wing of the DEMOCRATS!

The tool of corruption is the "law enforcement grants" mwhich the feds dole out to local police depts, and which they risk losing if they don't jump when a fed agency tells them too.

Federal grants need to be abolished. All of them, for whatever purpose. They are the tools by which the feds get state and local agencies to do unconstitutional things for them.

They did the same thing to Mark Middleton and his wife.

American Gestapo.

The FIB should be disbanded and their headquarter sold to charity.

Criminal and civil suits should be brought against the thugs who plan and carry out this type of warfare against citizens.
