Something I have repeatedly posted:

January 6th was a riot, not an insurrection. If it had been an insurrection, they would have done something other than wandering around aimlessly once they had control of the capital. If it had been an insurrection, they would have been armed. Trump has been charged using a lot of bogus legal theories, but not even the special council is willing to make a legal claim that Trump engaged in insurrection.

Yes, there was a violent riot at the capital. People who attacked police officers absolutely should have the book thrown at them. And there is a legitimate criticism that Trump should have acted fasted to tell people to go home. But those don’t turn a riot into an insurrection.

No. It was not a riot, it was a false flag event. FIB and DC Keystone Cops propagated this crap.

And what about the Capitol Police that fired rubber bullets and tear gas at a crowd that was peaceful thus instigating violence? What about undercover FBI members and informants inciting the Capital. Many of us question the Government narrative because we don’t have access to all the facts. Chris Wray refuses to answer the questions put to him by Republican Congressman about the “Ghost buses”.

Well look at you, all mediocre and such playing both sides. He was banned from the biggest social media platforms but somehow must post on them. The media refuses to cover his speeches in full length while ignoring actual facts such as section in his speech in which he said to "peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard."

So how long have you been a volunteer on Chris Christie's campaign?
