ReplyDeleteToo bad Chris Farley wasn't alive. He could've done a FIB Director Wray imitation and came out the more serious of the two.
ReplyDeleteDomestic terrorism. LMAO. It wasn’t. It wasn’t ‘armed insurrection’. It wasn’t a right wing coup. And it wasn’t an white supremacist overthrow.
ReplyDeleteIt was felony trespassing and hooliganism. Which are serious crimes. .
Dems blow this out of proportion like everything else. On the other hand the blm/antifa riots were and are everything they ascribe to the Jan 6 Capital shenanigans.
So we are talking a crowd of 150-200k people and 250 were arrested. Exactly how many entered the Capitol building? Are we talking hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands?
ReplyDeleteNot one single arrest for gun possession inside the Capital.
ReplyDeleteAnd Officer Sicknick suffered a stroke, not any kind of blow to the head.
...and those Trump flags and hats were not real either, right moron?
ReplyDeleteThe evidence is there. Lots of your pals going to jail.you discount smashing into the Capitol, stealing laptop, whacking police with flag poles etc...perhaps you were there.
Sorry but I am not able to figure out what your gutter language is saying. Saw many videos of what went on. Read about the hundreds going to trial. Reality is very clear. You are not

A Capitol rioter said he posed as antifa, feds say, then boasted he beat police who ‘got exactly what they deserved’

The day before a pro-Trump mob stormed the U.S. Capitol, William Robert Norwood III texted a group of friends and family to boast he had traveled to D.C. with a plan to fool the police.
“I’m dressing in all black,” Norwood texted a group chat on Jan. 5, according to images included in a federal criminal complaint filed last week. “I’ll look just like ANTIFA. I’ll get away with anything.”
Then, after joining in the mob, assaulting police officers and storming the Capitol rotunda, federal agents said, Norwood texted the group again to boast that his ploy had been a success.
“It worked,” Norwood texted, along with photos of himself wearing a police officer’s vest that he allegedly took from the Capitol. “I got away with things that others were shot or arrested for.”
Norwood was arrested in Greer, S.C., on Feb. 25 and charged with violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds, obstruction of justice and Congress, theft of government property and other charges. He does not yet have an attorney listed in court records.
Federal agents buttressed the criminal complaint against Norwood with text messages he allegedly sent about joining in the riot — including contradictory messages taking credit for attacking police, while also blaming the violence on antifascists.
Blue (cops) lives matter? tell that to the fucking insurrectionists
ReplyDeletesome 150 of your butt boys going to jail. you might visit to renew friendships with the insurrections
ReplyDelete“Insurrectionist”. The Left’s new favorite word.
ReplyDeleteRote repeating monkeys.
"Your with us, or your with the terrorists". Soon you must choose.
ReplyDeleteBuild the CHUD camps Mr. Biden.
ReplyDeleteLMFAO. You just proved my point.
DeleteIf the FBI Director tells me the sun is shining, I’d want to check for myself. He has no credibility.
ReplyDelete5:15, 5:47, etc, they're just jealous.
ReplyDeleteCHUD-master you're out of persona again. Maybe paid commenting for state actors is not as easy as it is made out to be. You have to pay attention to style and syntax dude.

ReplyDeleteThe guy doing the Fred impersonation
John Sullivan was there. Ergo ANTIFA was there.
Why are people surprised?
ReplyDeleteHe will also tell you that there was no election theft. And he'd agree that the Wuhan virus just came from a food market and that you're a racist bigot for asking questions why your economy is destroyed or your grandparents had to die lonely in isolation wards.
You either resist this evil or you'll be ruled by it.
Killing a member of law enforcement to illegally enter a restricted building without lawful authority and some say "that just wasn’t that big a deal."
ReplyDeleteSo much for being all about law and order!
You have proof of your charge of murder of a law enforcement officer?
DeleteIn some cases police opened doors for protesters. There are 6 or more police under investigation for that.
ReplyDeleteCode Pink, Antifa and others entered building illegally. The Kavanaugh hearings were a complete zoo. Asking for decorum and respect after that is to demand a 2 tiered justice system.
Along with Oath Keepers, Proud Boys, and even Republican state legislators entering a restricted building without lawful authority.
ReplyDeleteRepublican legislators not having lawful authority, really.
DeleteMaybe for every 75 Trump supporters Joe can find 81 Joe Biden supporter to keep the Junta safe in DC and withdraw the National guard troops that they are poisoning and sending to the hospital

ReplyDeleteRuss, you overlooked the kids new favorite utterance "stormed".
I am talking about certain Republican STATE legislators not members of the US Congress. You want proof, well West Virginia House of Delegates member Derrick Evans (Republican) was charged with illegally entering the US Capitol.
