Rush to judgment on Trump Impeachment? Multiple leftists arrested for Capitol riot
American Thinker ^ | 01/15/2021 | Monica Showalter

Posted on 01/15/2021 8:18:22 AM PST by SeekAndFind

When the Capitol riots happened on Jan. 6, the blame of President Trump was all over. 

Supposedly, he was the instigator.  Supposedly, he'd egged the rioters on.  The tape of his urging his supporters to stay strong and fight was Exhibit A in the press, and with no skepticism whatsoever, House speaker Nancy Pelosi declared Trump guilty and rushed a crazily hasty second impeachment just days before Trump's exit.  She declared that it was all about holding Trump "accountable," and she added that her explicit aim at the uselessly late date was to prevent him from ever running from public office again.

Never mind what the voters might want.  In more ways than one, in Pelosi's addled mind, their votes don't count.

The press also rushed to judgment — even the Wall Street Journal's editorial writers, claiming that Trump's political capital and credibility was now gone and he'd never run for president again.

But as news of the arrests comes out, showing who these branded Trump so-called supporters are, the conventional argument is starting to splinter apart.

The arrests made in the riots case are starting to show the kind of people who like to riot, which is to say extreme leftists.

Start with this freak, as reported by Fox News:

A left-wing activist who told Fox News last week that he'd followed a pro-Trump mob into the Capitol in order to "document" the siege is now the subject of a criminal complaint in connection with his alleged participation, according to the U.S. Justice Department.

John Sullivan can allegedly be heard egging on protesters in video he provided to the FBI, according to a federal criminal complaint. He has also shared the video to his YouTube and Twitter accounts under the pseudonym Jayden X.

He had a pal, too, from CNN.  According to this report from TrendingPolitics:

On Thursday night, damning new footage showed CNN's Jade Sacker inside of the Capitol with John Sullivan, the BLM member who was charged by federal prosecutors for inciting chaos on January 6th.

Sacker co-conspired with the liberal activist in order to cause chaos and make Trump supporters look bad.

The shocking video shows her and Sullivan celebrating and shouting "We did it!" when they got the footage they were looking for. When she asked Sullivan if he was filming, he said was going to delete it. He never did.

Trending Politics ran a tweet of the actual video, and described this:

As you can see, Sacker and Sullivan are overjoyed with the fact that they got footage of Trump supporters "rioting".

"Is this not gonna be the best film you've ever made in your life?!" Sullivan asks her.

Verified twitter user Amuse breaks everything down in further detail in a series of tweets.

"To make this clear. CNN was embedded with BLM/Antifa pretending to be Trump supporters taping them incite a riot. This is freaking huge. If CNN is allowed to maintain its press access anywhere in DC there needs to be a serious overhaul of our entire system," he tweeted.

Here's another one, who showed up with furs, and also got himself arrested.  According to the New York Post:

Aaron Mostofsky was busted Tuesday at his brother's house in Brooklyn by federal agents on multiple charges, including theft of government property for allegedly stealing a police riot shield and bulletproof vest, the source said.

Mostofsky, who is the son of Shlomo Mostofsky, a Supreme Court judge and a prominent figure in the Orthodox Jewish community, was photographed with both items.

Video circulating on Twitter following Mostofsky's arrest shows FBI agents swarming the home and carting out what appeared to be the fur pelts and walking stick he had on him during the insurrection.

Bloomberg’s survey of the players showed that only the people who died of medical emergencies seemed to be fully normal Republican voters — the rest didn’t vote at all, voted sporadically, voted Libertarian, independent, or Democrat, and in general were fringe players. Bloomberg, missing that obvious conclusion, seemed to consider these mostly arrested characters “Trump’s people” and Trump’s “base,” in a bid to still pin the riots on Trump. But how anyone who votes Democrat or doesn’t vote at all could be a part of Trump’s rise and the huge crowds he draws was never actually explained. Trump-supporters...vote for Trump. This isn’t rocket science.

More and more, it looks as though Trump was framed - AS USUAL.

Hey Nanzi, it looks like you are going to have to vitiate that ill-timed impeachment you forced through congress. Gurl, you so cray cray!

All the Antifa and leftists who participated will be identified, charged, convicted and sent to federal prison for at least ten years each.

I would like to see a list of those arrested with photos and bios: name, age, where from, criminal record, voter registration, etc. Has it been posted? Where?

They tried to beat the facts on impeachment. Why am I surprised Pence didn’t go along!?

It wasn’t a rush to judgement. It was a rush to impeach before the truth got out.

I did have a “rush to judgement” - which has been increasingly confirmed over the past days

The Left infiltrated a planned rally, and arranged for their agents provacateur to lead the angriest of people into the capitol, where they would be photographed for a made-for-Hollywood event.

The Left and their media had their talking points, buzz-words and slogans pre-arranged, to pour out immediately, in unison.

These are revelations the Pravda media will yawn about and not give them the time of day, just as they did with all the election-fraud evidence.

Can you say:

“False Flag”

But will we ever know the whole truth about this because we must uncover the FBI informants involved?

I believe they were there.

But, but that worm Glenn Beck told us last week that Antifa wasn’t there because his correspondent knows who everyone is and he didn’t see any of them so everyone shut up about Antifa.

They rushed judgement to in order to set the narrative.

No matter the evidence, people have heard the left’s and media’s version and no amount of evidence will overturn most minds. If that evidence would be presented in the media, which it will not.

Conservatives must find a way to get there “the fastest with the mostest.” Until we do, we will lose in the kangaroo court of public opinion.

So, who the heck is this John Sullivan dude? Did Beck’s correspondent really do their job?

If I were Democrats, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer and the whole democrat party....I would pay little, of nothing to impeaching POTUS Donald J. Trump!!!

I would be a lot more concerned about the vastly growing unemployment numbers that are growing under the Biden/Pelosi team like raw weeds growing in the fields.

As a matter of fact I would be having the House & Senate paying 100% attention to passing a strong stimulus bill immediately. Tons of decent and unfortunate Americans of all political stripes are hurting, and have been hurting for a long through no fault of their own. Pelosi has sat on “Stimulus” for at least six months while she played “Bitch of the Month”!!!

What good is Government if in time of stress and economic failure it dallies and goofs around with meaningless impeachment, while Rome is burning to the ground. Democrats will pay a heavy price in the 2022 mid term elections. As for Biden, the man is a lost soul wandering in the wilderness!!! The Biden inauguration coming up next week will be the worst in history and very lightly attended, while Washington, DC looks like the three circus of this century!!!

And...meanwhile the rest of the world laughs and mocks the American Republic!!! Americans, wake up, or, soon you will all be singing the Chinese National Anthem!!!

Sullivan’s pro-Trump brother sez there were 226 ANTIFA / BLM terrorists at the riot.

Where’s Waldo, FBI?
