Individuals bear responsibility for their decisions.
Trump didn’t do anything wrong on January 6th.
This whole thing is a fiasco.

The media saying BLM riots were okay for the entire summer is the real reason for the capital “riot” and even that was small time compared to the summer of love because a criminal died of a fentanyl overdose.

Putting the fox in charge of the hen house is never a good idea.

After the protesters — the majority of whom were entirely peaceful — entered the building, Trump immediately issued a video statement urging them to leave.

Not sure exactly when they first entered the building, but Ashley Babbitt was shot at 2:44 p.m., which was at least a half hour after they had entered the building. Trump's video wasn't uploaded until 4:17. Two hours isn't "immediately" during a riot.

It’s true though, and I have no love for McCarthy. Trump did send out a very public plea for people to come to the capitol for Jan 6 protest.

That doesn’t mean he called for a riot. It just means what it means, that Trump does bear some responsibility for the days events.

McCarthy caused it because he didnt support President Trump in his fight to show evidence of voter fraud

McCarthy and the Republicans are acting like a bunch of kids sitting on the den floor fighting over toys while the house is being set on fire by Marxists.

Joe Biden and his owners bear ALL the responsibility for January 6th because they STOLE THE ELECTION right in front of all of us.

THEY and ONLY THEY bear all the responsibility.

Protesting a massive crime is not a crime itself.

Brooks shared with VOA the names of more than a dozen extremist groups that she said took part in the riots. Other extremist researchers interviewed by VOA confirmed the list. While designated as hate groups by the SPLC, none of the organizations is considered a domestic terrorist entity, and law enforcement officials have not accused any of them of conspiring to mount an attack on the Capitol.

The Secret Service added: “There are approximately fifty nine (59) groups identified as potentially participating in First Amendment activities on January 6, 2021 at or around the White House Complex (WHC) ... Expected attendance is around 20,000 participants....Approximately 25,000 participants were screened by Secret Service Uniformed Division officers to get into the restricted area where Donald Trump was speaking”

now, how do we get from a dozen to ‘59’ groups, to blaming Trump as the lone motivator?
