‘President Trump’s supporters attempted a coup’: Pa. Gov. Tom Wolf on U.S. Capitol attack
Pennlive ^ | 6 January A.D. 2021 | Teresa Bonner

Posted on 01/06/2021 3:36:21 PM PST by lightman

Gov. Tom Wolf issued this statement Wednesday afternoon condemning the violence in Washington, D.C.:

“Today, President Trump’s supporters attempted a coup. This was the direct result of a deliberate disinformation campaign by Republicans from the President down to legislators in Pennsylvania. They lied about the results of the election. They lied about voter fraud. They lied about my administration and other governors. They lied about the administration of the election here in Pennsylvania and across the country. On November 3, we had a remarkably well-run election despite historic challenges.

“Eight of the nine Republican members of Congress from Pennsylvania lied about our election in an attempt to pledge fealty to President Trump.

“Republican legislators enabled this every step of the way. They’ve held show trials to gin up President Trump’s supporters. They’ve intentionally spread disinformation.

“The actions of Republicans in Pennsylvania and across the country have led to violence. It is their fault. There should be no equivocation.

“It is past time for Republicans to stop lying and tell their supporters the truth. President Trump lost. The election was fair. President Trump received fewer votes. That’s it.

“We have had a peaceful transfer of power every election cycle in our nation’s history but because of the actions of Republicans, we can no longer say that. I am disgusted but I will keep fighting to make our democracy stronger.”

No, you committed a coup! You unconstitutionally changed the election laws through the state Supreme Court while locking down Pennsylvanians. Quit your projecting

Sidney Powell, [06.01.21 15:31] 🔰 JUST IN - Republican Senator Mitt Romney urges U.S. lawmakers to unanimously confirm the election results for Joe Biden and condemns the “storming of Congress,” which he describes as a rebellion.

Tells me everything I need to know about what happened today. Antifa infiltrated and made those of us protesting the election look bad so the 'Rats and RINOs can smear us and stop the contesting of the stolen election.

This was planned.

Is it true that they’re starting to ID some of these people as being ANTIFA folks?

I guess that this moron also believes that the Communists burned down the Reichstag.

False flag, idiot, done by YOUR side - and it is so obvious that my blind dog can see and understand it.

In war, one side blames everything bad that happens on the other side thinking themselves blameless, and the other side knows in their heart that they are in the right fighting against a great evil. There can be no common ground or negotiations going forward. It’s the Democrats, deep state, Rino, open boarder global atheists against the humble, reverent but fully capable and fed up patriots.
Our second civil war officially started today and there is no going back. We are not impotent. We realize now that we are fully on our own. We have the courage, the self sacrifice and the means to pull through this evil in time with the Lord’s help. We clearly see the enemy now, even those we thought were of our own family.
Yes, you can blame this outrage on one man and one martyr, just as Brutus slew Caeser, just as Archeduke Franz Ferdinand sparked the first world war. This young woman, whether she be Antifa or not, is the spark in this new war and Mike Pence is not only the greatest coward and traitor in American history now, but he has the blood of this young woman on his hands. The first casualty of this our second civil war..

Milt is finally right about something.

Both Patriots and BLM/Antifa but much larger numbers of Patriots.

BLM/Antifa likely planned to breech the Capitol hoping to blame it on Trump supporters.

Trump supporters including me we’re triggered by Pence’s letter released early morning.

That letter waa infuriating.

Antifa attacked the capital. Tom Wolf lies and his policies killed seniors.
