Truly a pathetic move. For many of the officers who were pepper-sprayed or hit with two-by-fours or beaten that day, the thought that the nation’s chief executive would forgive such actions is despicable. “Releasing those who assaulted us from blame would be a desecration of justice,” Aquilino Gonell, a former Capitol Police sergeant who suffered lasting injuries in the riot, wrote in a Times Opinion guest essay this month. “If Mr. Trump wants to heal our divided nation, he’ll let their convictions stand.”

 

A Capitol police release the day after the riots said that USCP Officer Brian Sicknick “passed away due to injuries sustained while on-duty.” The report stated that Sicknick “was injured while physically engaging with protesters. He returned to his division office and collapsed.”

 

Four other police officers committed suicide in the days and months after the riot.

 

The first was U.S. Capitol Police Officer Howard Liebengood, 51, who had been guarding the Capitol for 15 years and was on duty at the Capitol on Jan. 6. He took his own life three days after the riots.

 

The following day, Trump ordered flags at the White House be lowered to half-staff in honor of both Sicknick and Liebengood.

 

Several days later, D.C. Police Officer Jeffrey Smith, 35, who was injured in the riots on Jan. 6, also committed suicide.

 

Smith’s wife, Erin, told the Washington Post her husband related to her the fear and panic he experienced the day of the assault on the Capitol, and that he was afraid he might die.

 

In defending the Capitol, Smith was struck on the helmet by a metal pole thrown by rioters. Later that night, his wife said he went to the police medical clinic, where he was prescribed pain medication and put on sick leave.

 

Smith’s wife said he “wasn’t the same” in the days after the riot and seemed to be in constant pain. After visiting a police clinic on Jan. 14 and being ordered back to work, Smith shot himself on the way to work, the Post reported.

Pretty sickening.  But, to be expected from a morally bankrupt goon.

Didn't you know that it's only debt when it happens under Trump. When it happens under Obama or Biden, it's investing in America's future.

The bullsh!t come from those who insist that some people were charged with insurrection despite that being factually inaccurate and "insurrection" was the subject of my post.   I have never claimed that "nothing happened".

If you weren't there you have a very filtered impression of his actions and it was a sh!tshow it was. You received only what was filter on the news media you engage in. You can have any opinion of him you want but the accuracy is questionable.

 

The facts are all on the internet on any source you want to use. I say that because you love to try to point out inaccuracies and faults of others so you can do your own research and then blame yourself. 

 

He has a lifelong legacy as a POS with no moral compass. If that's acceptable to you then you fit right in with him.

Typical of the cultural marxist sympathizers! 
1. Lawfare by all dem prosecutors.

2. 3 dem state atty ( colorado, Michigan and Maine)try and fail to take him off the ballot.

3. Dems tried to take his Secret Service protection away.

4.when that failed a dem supporter (Routh)tried to assassinate him.

 

And now they deny him his constitutional rights, of due process,

the appeal process guaranteed predictions .

One of the people who served jail time for taking part in the US Capitol riot four years ago has refused a pardon from President Donald Trump, saying: "We were wrong that day."

Pamela Hemphill, who pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 60 days in prison, told the BBC that there should be no pardons for the riot on 6 January 2021.

"Accepting a pardon would only insult the Capitol police officers, rule of law and, of course, our nation," she said.

"I pleaded guilty because I was guilty, and accepting a pardon also would serve to contribute to their gaslighting and false narrative."

Nothing shows more how demented the anti Trump cultists are than their belief that so many people hated Trump that Harris should have been POTUS simply because so many would vote against him. They thought that a cackling bimbo actually had a chance,

 

Dems are probably out looking for a disabled gender fluid mixed race rainbow candidate known by a pronoun for the next presidential election. Sure to win.

Still you guys are only 12% of the forum, and acts like you are the majority here. How Come? 

 

Maybe after a few more weeks, you guys will be the majority, since the rest of us left. 

 

You guys acting like you won,.before anything is done. Still a long way to victory, and trust me, it will not change anything. 

Oh look!

What a coincidence. 😘

 

A Florida man who prosecutors alleged attacked police with an explosive device during the Jan. 6 assault on the Capitol — and whose case was dropped following President Donald Trump's sweeping pardons and commutations issued Monday, was arrested Wednesday on pending federal gun charges, according to court records.

 

Daniel Ball, 39, was taken into custody Wednesday morning, according to an arrest warrant, on a separate indictment returned by federal prosecutors in Florida last summer that charged him for unlawfully possessing a gun as a felon.

 

He had at least three previous felony convictions — one dating back to 2017 for domestic violence battery by strangulation and two in October of 2021 — nine months after the Jan. 6 riot, for resisting law enforcement and battery on a law enforcement off

That looks like the platform the dems set up for Harris' last ditch effort to be relevant.

 

Obviously you supported the numerous attempts to "Overthrow the Government" during President Trumps' entire first term and all the attempts over the next 4 yrs to politically persecute him as well.

You better join the 'weed & booze room' gang and self-medicate for the next 30+ yrs of republican rule.

I expect most voters know the "crimes" were most all nonsense. 

 

If most voters thought he was a criminal, they would have voted for him.
