Key Points

Mick Mulvaney, President Trump’s former chief of staff, told CNBC he has resigned as special U.S. envoy to Northern Ireland. Mulvaney said he called Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Wednesday night to tell him of his decision. “I can’t do it. I can’t stay,” said Mulvaney, adding that Trump was “not the same as he was eight months ago.” He said other officials may follow suit.

“But Pence did not betray the Constitution by what he did yesterday.”

Yes he did. He has the 1876 example to follow in dealing with fraud. Cruz’s plan was simple, and would have seen Trump win. That is why the whole thing was rigged up, to stampede Congress and people like you.

Unless, of course, you are starting to think that Biden actually won 80 million votes.

No. He thinks the NYT and CNN will love him if he does this.

He will quickly learn they still hate him ... fool that he is.

...four were killed

Yup! That's exactly the MSM spin I knew was coming.

I posted a rebuttal to their latest set of lies here.

The lie you mention is addressed in the paragraph beginning "And yes, there were 4 deaths,..."

Cruz plan was NEVER going to work

It was a dog and pony show to appease the masses that they quickly folded on when Trump supporters and Antifa went nuts and try to seize the Capitol

The woman that was killed was not Antifa. She was an L Lin Wood follower

“Does a dead girl count?”

I don’t think we know who killed the unarmed woman. I don’t know of any Trump supporters who would do that.

It was most likely a federal police officer.

What an odd way to describe a person.

I’m a Lin Wood follower. In fact, he followed me back. Of course he’s been permanently banned now.

Trump should burn the house down on the way out and pardon as many people as he possibly can.

the thousands upon thousands of people who have been ensnared by the federal govt for whatever crimes imaginable including my scumbag doctor uncle who got caught up in some bribery scam by a lab that was ripping off insurance. yeah it was a stupid decision on his part and he tried to keep it legit which actually added more charges since the paper trail was clear. over 2 years in prison and a bunch of other good doctors got popped. my uncle was overall a prick and i am happy that his “elitist” life got humbled like it did, he was not a criminal and prison was not the right answer for what he did.
His claim was “hey i made a bad choice and we can settle it through civil litigation means i.e. restitution, fines, etc.... but these make-a-name for myself prosecutors had to cast their web as wide as possible. i.e. mueller anyone?

so yeah Trump, just pull out the pen, have some aides print lists of federal criminals, have a few cases of govt letterhead handy, and start pardoning every one.
some dude who got caught sending cocaine in the mail back in 1989—pardon him
john gotti-pardon him
tax evaders—pardon them
misuse of federal land—pardon them
military commanders convicted of BS—pardon them

you name it, pardon them all Mr. President.
If one group of people can get away 100% for all of their crimes, then you might as well let other people off the hook if there’s no rule of law to begin with.

It wasn’t an Antifa false flag. You sound like those leftists that try to say “i-it was the Proud Boys!” whenever Antifa pulls some stupid crap. No one with a half a brain and a shred of intellectual honesty is fooled by it.

Oh, really? Horned helmet guy, black clad helmeted brick-thrower being held back by real patriots? I've been to plenty of rallies and FReeps and the crowd has NEVER acted like this. Once the breach was made, of course the surge went into the Capital. But as is documented on video with that black-helmeted antifa type being restrained, there were agent-provocateurs mixed in and they managed to paint the whole in the worst possible light.

And an honest investigation will show that the kerfluffle at the Georgia rally was a dress rehersal for yesterday.
