Dem Rep. Thompson: ‘We Have Information’ Individuals Were Planning ‘Insurrection’ in April 2020
Breitbart ^ | 08/25/2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 08/26/2021 7:01:26 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Representative Bennie Thompson (D-MS), chair of the House Select Committee investigating January 6, said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “The Rachel Maddow Show” that his committee had “information” that individuals were planning in anticipation of the election not going their way.

Thompson said, “Clearly, a lot of us at this point feel that had January 6 been successful, this democracy would not be what it is today. So we came real close. So by getting this information, we think it will provide the necessary direction for us to correct it so that the military or no other branch of government can be used against American citizens.”

They did nothing to stop the Antifa types from ginning up this mass trespass event, and because they did nothing to prepare, a woman was murdered.

A ballot box stuffing banana republic with a mumbling puppet one step away from Weekend At Bernie's as a figurehead? Is that the "democracy" you are talking about.

So, was this information not given to the FBI for its investigation where they said the “Right” didn’t cause or plan the events of January 6th.

Chapter 4 in the Democrat playbook: promise information but never producing it.

Whenever you blatantly steal an election you naturally expect a reaction.

It was a mob sprinkled generously with FBI operatives and leftist agents provocateur. They were looking for the exact outcome they got.

He is correct. The FBI often plans these things well in advance.

Yet another professional pot-stirrer that is trying to sow the seeds of insurrection. Gee, when was the last time a Democrat passed a bill designed for the people and not to get themselves re-elected?

The insurrection plan response if they were losing, hatched by the Soros/Obama machine, was widely publicized in august of ‘20. I know I was screaming bloody murder about this leading up to the 11/3 coup. Having knowledge of this action plan, nothing done from 11/3 till now should be of any surprise.

If this partisan Democrat had bombshell information which would harm his political opponents then why wouldn’t he release it to the public. Otherwise he just looks like a liar.

“If this partisan Democrat had bombshell information which would harm his political opponents then why wouldn’t he release it to the public.”

Adam Schiff employed the same tactic for three years during the Russia collusion investigations. He never delivered the proof he claimed he had. The media gleefully reported every lie Schiff told as fact. Why shouldn’t Bennie expect the same cooperation from the press?

It was a mix of people. Self indentified leftists included. “Mobs” don’t stay inside the velvet ropes like tourists.

You mean you knew about the “ insurrection “ but you did nothing to stop it?

Is this like billy Clinton knew in oct of 1995 that bin laden had a plan to use jets to attack our country and he dumbed down airport security while giving us the Gorelik memo?
