Clyburn: Republicans Downplaying January 6 Riot ‘Absolutely a Threat to the Future of this Great Country’
Breitbart ^ | 08/02/2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 08/03/2021 6:32:41 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-SC) said Monday on CNN’s “Don Lemon Tonight” that Republicans who deny the serious nature of the January 6 Capitol riot were “absolutely a threat to the future of this great country.”

Clyburn said, “People need to come to grips with something happened on January 6th that never happened before. Never have we seen this kind of violent insurrection brought on by fellow Americans. We all know what happened. We all know where it happened. We all know that something and somebody is behind all of this. To see four lives lost, that to me, is just unacceptable. For my Republican colleagues to continue to obfuscate continue to obstruct, refusing to take part in trying to get to the bottom of this is beyond me.”

The $1T and $3T spending bills are an existential threat to the USA.

Flooding the southern border with illegal immigrants and released felons is not a threat ?

Gee, that’s a relief !

Why waste time with a justice system at all, when we already know who’s guilty? Anyone that challenges our certainty is a threat to the future of this great country, after all.

Apparently all we need is one organization to identify the enemies of the State, and another one to punish them. Or better yet, one organization to do both.

Clyburn is a faux politician trying to cover for the conduct of some faux police in Nancy Pelosi’s faux ‘insurrection’ con

No - BLM, AntiFa and Democrat malfeasance are a threat to this country.

Also stealing elections.

Clyburn needs to prove that he didn’t collude with Pelousy and the FIB to incite the 1/6 incursion.

The goal is to dehumanize Republicans. I think it’s on page 107 of the Communist playbook. The tactic will come in useful when the Fit hits the Shan and someone will be required to pay for the collectivist’s failures. Kulaks in Russia. Jews in Germany. They were targeted for pillage and plunder when resources collapsed.
Decent folk will not risk their wealth/status for “Deplorables” and only look on pitifully knowing it was them or us.

“The $1T and $3T spending bills are an existential threat to the USA.”

Ditto...stealing the Presidency via election fraud in plain view.

I would say that the Media-Dem Party’s funding, organizing, and inciting months of rioting is a much bigger threat to America than a 3-hour event on one day.

On the contrary, January 6th is being vastly OVERPLAYED by the anti-Trumpers and the never-Trumpers. Almost the entire blame may be laid at the feet of ONE person, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, who to all appearances had considerable prior knowledge of how the events of January 6th were supposed to unfold. Only, there were a few gaps in the timeline. For one, the rush on the barricades was supposed to coincide with the ending of Donald Trump’s address to the rally, and they surged prematurely. For another, why was the National Guard not in place in the immediate vicinity of the Capitol? Called off by - Speaker Pelosi. Why did the Capitol police simply open the side entries into the building itself, and station themselves at points along the corridors, to direct and guide the surging crowd, the leading elements of which were made up of FBI informants and Antifa/BLM carrying Trump paraphernalia (flags, MAGA hats), with actual Trump supporters traveling with the vanguard, but not in the lead.

And who shot Ashli Babbitt? What was his justification?

Many, many more questions than answers.

The evidence supports the downplaying. Keep getting out. Don’t quit.

Those destroying the Constitution are criminalizing attempts to protect it.

If it was a great Country as it once was. Asses such Clyburn would be no where around positions of Power. Bastards such as Clyburn are who corrupted and changed a once Proud, Honorable Nation that was led by Men of Honor into a cesspit ran by Scoundrels. Clyburn is where he is only where he because of his skin color, not his intelligence. If he was where in Life that his intelligence tool him he would be grave robbing. That he is even where honorable men stood is an insult to their memory.
