At least that's the way one sees it, for now. What one knows for certain, is "Never back to the same old worthless, feckless, inept, self-interested, myopic GOP not never ever again."
Put it politely; one will never support the likes of Milt/Pierre, McCain, or any Arbusto ever again, or anyone near them.
But I digress. Kevin is wrong and Trump is right about Ashley.
There certainly is a lot to object to in the write-up:
“the pro-Trump insurrection”
It wasn’t an “insurrection.” Also. there were many actors, most likely antifa, BLM, Feds, various kooks, and many non-violent Trump supporters.
“Babbitt was attempting to climb through a shattered window.” How do we know her intentions?
My recollection of the video is that someone behind her pushed her forward and she was shot. Perhaps a frame-by-frame analysis of Babbitt, those around her, and Byrd would be revealing.
‘“I think the police officer did his job,” McCarthy told reporters.’ I disagree. At best you could say he over-reacted under stress.
‘Trump added. “ASHLI BABBITT WAS MURDERED!!!”.’ As much as things were rigged that day, I cannot say Trump is wrong. But I can’t say he is right either.
My understanding is that the only person killed that day was a Trump supporter, Ashley Babbitt.
What would have happened if a white cop had shot a black protester at the “mostly peaceful” protests/riots in the summer of 2020? There’s your difference. Different colors, different outcome.
Bunch of False Flags
believe NOTHING you see on the Propaganda Arm of the Elites !!
there were crisis actors crawling all over the place on J6, and AB was not a Trump supporter

“’I think the police officer did his job,’ McCarthy told reporters when asked if he agreed with Greene’s take on Babbitt’s death.”
I agree with McCarthy. Byrd was following orders, just doing his job
I used to feel this way when I thought Trump could do no wrong, but not so much anymore.
Oh I’m sure I’ll get flamed for daring to even mention the MERE POSSIBILITY that JUST MAYBE Ashley was in the wrong here, and while her death certainly was a tragedy, and excessive force was most likely used, calling the cop a flat out murderer doesn’t fit the honest context or situation.
Oh sure you can call him a murderer, if you want to ignore all the actual circumstances of what was going on, and jump to some extreme conclusion that is equivalent to what BLM protesters claim, without realizing it.
But imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. And reacting in an equivalent way to how BLM protesters would react, and think, by blaming the cop and ignoring the dangerous situation he was dealing with at that moment, is not that smart my friend. Trump himself is just reacting that way because he knows millions will follow suit, which allows him to distract from the fact that he is the reason Ashley was there in the first place.
And sadly, she’s not the only one that dies that day. There was a police office who died from a heart attack after being sprayed in the eyes with pepper spray. Oh but that’s not the same, people say! Oh really? It’s close. But Trump has tricked you into thinking like a BLM member again.
In 2025, you can.
Whether she was a Trump supporter or not, the fact remains, she was murdered.

OK I'll play. I'm going with Trump hatred "trumps" race. A white capitol police officer shoots a black Trump supporter (who is deemed an insurrectionist)? White cop good; Black Trump dude bad. That was easy.
Or This:
Imagine a white police officer shoots an unarmed black Biden supporter during a BLM/ANTIFA riot.....
Did anyone tell McCarthy it’s been a month, and ask where are the 16000 hours of security tapes.
*slap*
"The police officer who died following the attack on the US Capitol by supporters of president Donald Trump in January was killed by two strokes, the Washington city coroner ruled Monday.Initial reports, later ruled incorrect, said Sicknick had been hit by a fire extinguisher. Later reports tied his death to being sprayed with chemical irritants like bear spray or pepper spray.
The official report attributed the Capitol Police officer's death to "acute brainstem and cerebellar infarcts due to acute basilar artery thrombosis" -- a particularly devastating form of stroke with a high death rate, caused by blockages in the brain.
It noted that he had been sprayed with a chemical substance at about 2:20 pm during the assault on Congress. At 10:00 pm, he collapsed at the Capitol and was taken to the hospital. Almost 24 hours later he died while still in the hospital.
The report made no link between the spray and Sicknick's collapse.
Francisco Diaz, the chief medical examiner, told The Washington Post there was no evidence that the officer had an allergic reaction to the chemicals, nor did he show any other internal or external injuries."
Perhaps the opportunity to shoot a white woman in the face* and get away with it was too much?
Priceless!
*Buck fever, he missed by about 6-7" in his excitement.
This statement by McCarthy legitimizes the action by the cop that killed Ashli. Therefore this statement is dumber than anything Pelosi ever said.
McCarthy should resign. He’s a complete moron! We need Louie Gohmert for Speaker.
“I think the police officer did his job,” McCarthy told reporters..”
Umm, sorry Kevin…
There was a dude RIGHT next to/just behind Ashley - holding an objet (his phone) - aimed right at the creep with the gun.
Yet, somehow, THAT guy was ignored and the ‘coo’ chose to shoot the small woman instead…
Hmmmm….
‘Cop’…
No, no; keep in mind that it is the MSM that is parsing this statement.
If words published are true, McK said truth; the thug of a DC copper did his job — kill someone. That was his job. That is why a trigger happy TWOT like that was put in that sensitive area — to kill someone.
G & DJT are also saying truth; it was murder. Murder rewarded by DC police.
