Mehdi: Why new reporting on the FBI Jan. 6 probe undermines Trump defense
MSNBC ^ | Aug. 20, 2021 | Mehdi Hasan

Posted on 08/21/2021 10:01:31 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

“Maybe it is true that there was no grand conspiracy to send armed militias to disrupt the election certification. But that just means Donald Trump is even more responsible for everything that happened that day—and since,” says Mehdi Hasan.

These people are psychotic. The FBI announces that there is no evidence Trump or anyone around him played any role in planning the breach at the Capitol, so that just proves how guilty he is!!!

Just another CNN-style “It’s a mostly peaceful protest” moment from MSLSD.

The point they want to make is that Trump’s words alone caused the riot, as if it were spontaneous and not organized. That would justify putting clamps on the 1st Amendment.

Pfft doesn’t matter what the FBI announced.

FBI announces there was a secret plan.
Mehdi: See?! This confirms Trump planned to overthrow the government.

FBI announces there wasn’t a secret plan.
Mehdi: See?! This confirms Trump inspired people to overthrow the government.

Truth doesn’t matter to these people. These are the same people that think men who cut off their penises are women.

They’re RETARDS.

His reasoning g is akin to “maybe there is no Evidence of global warming, but that just means global warming is really real. No really, it’s real. That’s what no evidence of it suggests. Really. “

No. It must be Russia, Russia, Russia.

If that Negro policeman Lt. Mike "Black" Byrd hadn't murdered Ashli Babbitt, that whole day would have been more peaceful than any Antifa/BLM get-together.

Except the FBI said that there WAS some planning and coordination among small groups like the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, and THEY (probably egged-on by FBI plants) are the ones who breached the Capitol, even though they had no coherent plan as to what to do once they were inside.

“That there was no conspiracy only makes the conspiracy that much worse!” Leftist craziness.

FBI finds no evidence that January 6th was an organized plot to overturn presidential election!

KUSI ^ | 08/20/2021 | KUSI Newsroom
Posted on 8/21/2021, 9:07:04 AM by Jan_Sobieski

WASHINGTON D.C. (KUSI) – The FBI has found little evidence that the Jan. 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol was coordinated on a large scale, according to reports.

A source told Reuters that “Ninety to ninety-five percent of these are one-off cases”, while a small percentage came from “militia groups that were more closely organized”.

The official said “there was no grand scheme with Roger Stone and Alex Jones and all of these people to storm the Capitol and take hostages.”

Reuters reported, “spokespeople for the Justice Department and U.S. Attorney’s office in Washington, which is leading the Jan. 6 prosecutions, declined to comment.”

More than 570 people have been arrested so far in connection with the riot, but the FBI has released no information on who shot and killed San Diego woman Ashli Babbitt.

Babbitt, a U.S. veteran, was unarmed like everybody else who entered the United States Capitol on January 6th.

Despite the lack of violence, hundreds of protesters have been arrested and held in solitary confinement by the Biden Administration. Critics say it is political persecution, punishing those simply because they supported President Donald Trump…

I get it. It's Trumps fault regardless. If not one way, it's the other.

Trump is just a means to an end, it’s all about going after the First Amendment.
