Republican Alabama Sen. Tommy Tuberville said today “people should be arrested for what they did” in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, and he “stands behind the Capitol police 100 percent.”
...
It “never should have happened,” Tuberville said. “Whoever came in broke things, hurt people, fought the police. They are police, that is their job. And people should be arrested for what they did coming into the national’s Capitol like that and destroying things.”

Republicans need a clearer message on this, IMO. Arrest the wrongdoers, judge everyone individually keeping in mind there were innocent protestors caught up in the rush, but don’t let Democrats turn the event into political theater over the misdeeds of a few. Congress makes laws and exercises oversight. This is a law enforcement issue and there are plenty of laws on the books to handle it.
And yet here you are!!!!
Yes, but, search for "Jan 6 capitol damage" and look at the pictures. There's very, very little damage visible. There's a couple of broken mirrors, some sort of furniture overturned and possibly damaged. No damage to the statues that I can see. No damage to the paintings that I can see. No damage to the marble floors that I can see. I see no evidence that a fire was started.
Nope. Didn’t take long.
Some get turned quick. Some it takes more time.
Tubberville turned quick.
F the GOP. I’ve had my fill.
Are sure about that? If she listens to her abuser’s line of bullshit, she always returns. Deep down, she knows that it was her fault that he hit her. She is the blame for him breaking her jaw, breaking her nose, and knocking a few of her teeth out. If she had just kept her mouth shut when he told her to and not made him mad, he would not have had to hit her. The abused wife always blames herself for her abuse and never her abuser. Conservative Republican Party voters do the same thing. They blame themselves and not the Party. And by election day they always return. “Where else can we go”! They lament.
“attacked”
Bottom line don’t accept the narrative of the left without offering a counter narrative...

Good point.
“ Thought Tuberville was one of the good guys?”

He might have been the “CREAM OF THE CRAP”.
Come on Alabama. Why isn’t Mo Brooks a Senator instead of this RINO?
I must give McConnell credit. It didn’t take him and the RINO brigade long to “turn” Tuberville.
I am asking for everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence! Remember, WE are the Party of Law & Order – respect the Law and our great men and women in Blue. Thank you!

I won’t “go” anywhere.
I’ve had enough.
Tubbs another rino Traitor.One term Senator
“...coming into the nation’s capital and destroying things...”
But is OK for Antifa and Black Live Marxists to burn down city’s.
Right.
Tuberville should clarify the actions worthy of arrest: Brandishing guns? Knives? Clubs? What about the ones who were invited in, doors were opened for them, they were told what direction to go, were told to be calm, were trying to get away from the smoke bombs,...
Should all of these grandparents, parents, and adults be arrested???
Sure they should be arrested if they broke the law. Sure, they should be punished. But that really misses the point, which is exactly what happens, Tommy, when you dance to the Media’s narrative and accept their premises.
The issue is, are these people truly being punished for the crimes they ACTUALLY COMMITTED, or one’s that the media narrative wishes they had committed?
Tuberville: Those who attacked Capitol ‘should be arrested’.
The Antifa will never be arrested, after all they are the militant arm of the democrook party. And you can.t arrest the FIB either they would have to arrest themselves.
Tuberville wouldn’t be on the ballot for 5 1/2 years and is a GOP Senator from AL. So he can say whatever we wants now.
The tone of his comments and the shallowness of them reflects an intellectual laziness. It’s a cry from the backbench of the Senate. This guy has no interest in being a leader in these historic times. Disappointing.
The former college football college coach? Low expectations met again...
Bottom line don’t accept the narrative of the left without offering a counter narrative...
Exactly. The Dems are relentless. They have their talking points coordinated and fight for every daily news cycle. The GOP specializes in hit and run operations. I’m sure Tuberville will strike the right notes during a hearing in the future. But that isn’t good enough.
