Go ahead Donnie, be a man and testify under oath and let's see all that evidence you have. Free popcorn and kool aide for all. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the J6 kangaroo court will roll on and, if I were a betting person, I would say that the January 6 committee will live to regret giving Donald Trump a chance to sit before them and explain what really happened. An opinion by Mr. Conway-CNN "This sequence of events seems far-fetched for Trump. “None of that is going to happen,” the Trump critic and conservative lawyer George Conway predicted during an appearance on CNN Thursday. “This is about laying a marker. This is about triggering a response (from Trump).” Trump responded on social media, calling the committee a “BUST” and a “laughing stock” and accusing members of dividing the country." The left has no chance of success against challenging anything Trump and MAGA. Their six years of failing to so illustrates it all, they seem to enjoy the humiliation and they should come to their senses if possible. Nothing is gained, and the people suffer needlessly. It must be wonderful to sit anonymously behind a keyboard, and speak on behalf of millions of people and to say what YOU think that they should be saying. Especially when you have NO idea of their thoughts and feelings. Even more so, when you don't even KNOW millions of Americans. I am a Brit and of the 70 million Brits i would be hard pushed to be able to name, and thus know more than about 350 people personally. Nor would i have the temerity to speak for them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LosLobo Posted October 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 16, 2022 (edited) Interesting discovery aired at last week's January 6th Committee meeting, was the fact that not only did Trump and his staff privately recognise and accept Biden's victory but Trump also sought to create mischief for and possibly sabotage Biden's new administration. After his loss, Trump on November 11th, 2020, ordered the immediate withdrawal of all US troops from Somalia and Afghanistan to be finalised before Biden's inauguration day. Obviously, Trump's immediate withdrawal from Afghanistan would have been mayhem overshadowing Biden's planned somewhat chaotic withdrawal in August 2021, almost a year later. Biden's withdrawal has been a Trump and conservative media's talking point against Biden almost daily for over a year now. Possibly, they will issue an apology to right the wrong they have caused the Biden administration? Edited October 16, 2022 by LosLobo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You clearly did miss the report that Trump was threatening to lead the demonstrators/rioters. "In the new footage, Pelosi is depicted watching crowds swell near the Capitol. At around noon that day, Trump had given a speech blasting attempts to certify Biden’s victory and declaring that he would march down to the area alongside his supporters." “Tell him if he comes here, we’re going to the White House,” Pelosi says, laughing. A senior Pelosi aide later tells the speaker, at about the time protesters were beginning to mass at the Capitol, that the Secret Service had rebuffed Trump’s demand to go to the Capitol. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2022/10/14/pelosi-punch-trump-footage-jan-6/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The potency of the Trump cult Kool-Aid sadly fails to amaze me, with its trivalent efficacy to not only break the fabric of this Space/Time Continuum, and transport members to an alternate reality but suck away any semblance of awareness and critical thinking. For those with violent tendencies, it conditions them for Trump's subliminal call-to-arms against perceived opponents. With death threats to the Democrats including Pelosi and even his colleague and friend Pence, and more recently the FBI. His rhetoric has also been suggested to have inspired mass killings in NZ and El Peso.

Sad to still see this rather silly lie get promoted time and again. Not much logic in your allegation. My take is that Trump did his bidding for Putin by subverting NATO by crippling NATO from within and planned to shatter it in his second term. Putin has a ambition to roll back the Soviet Union. Taking back Ukraine was part of that ambition but rolling back all the advances by NATO will be his biggest ambition. And he got that wish in the form of Trump. How he wish that Trump will take the second term and fulfilled his mission but here comes Biden to thwart his diabolical plan and unite NATO and the world against Putin. Is there something in his tax return to show that he is beholden to Putin? Come on, reveal your tax return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it quite amazing that you believe the investigation into the January 6 events would be forced to close if the Republican party wins back control of the House and Senate. So what you are really saying is that it is okay in America, and for the Republicans, for an insurrection/takeover/storming of Capitol Hill in order to overturn a democratic election, decided by the people of America, with damage being done and people being killed, to achieve their desired outcome – – it is beyond belief that anyone could write this, let alone believe it. Do you realise what you are saying?? Absolutely unbelievable, that you could believe an insurrection which threatened the very foundations of US democracy, could be brushed aside without any ramifications whatsoever – – whatever next. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems obvious that the panel has political motivations, and that the timing of the subpoena is not a coincidence. A classic "October surprise".

Popular Post pomchop Posted October 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted October 17, 2022 so let me get this straight.. 1. the trumpers on here basically say that storming the capitol in an attempt to stop the counting of electoral votes was just a demonstration. 2. the jan 6 committee is a partisan witch hunt in spite of the vast majority of testimony presented under oath has come from republicans who voted for and worked for trump. 3. if the repubs should take control of the house the doj will drop the entire investigation into trumps potential crimes even though merrick garland will still be the AG with a duty to present evidence to a grand jury and let them decide if the evidence is sufficient to result in charging crimes. 4. it is ok for trump to go on fox news and maga friendly outlets to repeatedly claim the election was stolen from him via massive fraud without presenting a shred of proof in two years or refusing to make those same claims under oath and penalty of perjury. 5. the oh so stupid dems have somehow managed to pull off the biggest election fraud in usa history right under the noses of republican legislators without leaving any evidence whatsoever. If you drink enough kool aide you can be convinced of almost any conspiracy theory and believe that poor little donnie is a true model citizen who has not conned millions of republicans out of hundreds of millions of dollars//in fact he is a fine christian patriot and is a paragon of honesty and virtue that is not guilty of so much as jay walking, that what you say in public like only guilty plead the fifth, that yes all the docs were turned over and on and on and on ad infintum wasn't really him saying that and if he did say it then it was not a lie.....to admit you got conned is not a possibility in spite of all the facts and evidence saying otherwise. 4 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
