I don’t know. If he gets in he might have something for them.

Time will tell.

But we all need to keep voting for the likes of Thine, the Scott’s, Rubio, Graham, Cornyn, etc because next time they’ll really do something.

Ray Epps, the FIB and Antifa opened the doors to let them in.

That should have been our first clue that we were being set up.

No they won’t. The appeals court is stacked with Obama appointees. This will end up with SCOTUS assuming they accept it.

Who is ‘we’?

The Conservatives who fell into their trap. It also refers to the Conservative who learned their lesson and didn't fall for it again.

“That town needs to be reduced to the Capitol buildings, Supreme Court buildings and the rest of that disgusting town needs to be turned back to Maryland.”

How about razing the entire thing down to flat space of raw earth. And then salting that, heavily?

“Contempt of Congress” is not a charge. We hired these people; they work FOR US.

If anything, they should be found in contempt of the people.

Three hours for the hand-picked leftists star chamber to come out with this verdict. That’s one hour for instructions, one hour in coffee breaks, and 45 minutes to appoint a foreman. That left 15 minutes to reach a pre-decided verdict.

Yes, the “verdict” was a foregone conclusion.

The Democommies want to shut up Bannon who I’m sure knows the true nature of what really happened on J-6th.

The only way President Trump could have stopped the chaos at the Capitol was to have the help of the National Guard. The Democommies planned this National Guard rejection in order to apply their master plan. When the Dem engineers of the chaos shot down his request to provide the National Guard, what was President Trump to do? Should he have waved a magic wand and have the troops show up? Was there the Fairy Godmother to help him? All he could do was turn on the TV and watch—or, do something else.

President Trump knew this was a false flag operation as soon as he turned on the TV. It was a coup plot to put the blame on him and the MAGA movement. I think he was busy getting direct live evidence from the NSA as the coup agents coordinated the False Flag operation.

We must understand that the NSA is responsible for global monitoring, collection, and processing of information and data for foreign and domestic intelligence and counterintelligence purposes. I bet he called NSA to get the information he wanted. I imagine he got the two-way cell phone calls from the inner circle of operatives (Pelosci is my first suspect). While Trump was getting that information, he appeared to be slacking in his duties. The reason we haven’t got the true nature of what he was doing, nor the results of his inquiry, is because this is Trump’s Trump Card. He wants to play it in a strategic move. I think Bannon, through his connections, knows too.
