Right? But I bet if you look close, you can pick out JRB from the various locations and names, so that proves Joe Biden pulled the fire alarm.
No J.R.B. Wasn’t there. However the same corruption in the Democrat party that led to Biden being president allows this kind of crap to happen.

Analmal drooled on the control panel. Give him a few minutes to sort through his semen-crusted towels to find something clean.

the actions on Jan 6 are a problem. everyone has always said they were. they just weren't a coup or an insurrection. But they were definitely a problem, stupid, uncalled for, ridiculous, and criminal in terms of damages they caused.

Follow up:

How did it come to be? Any explanation for the actions?

Do you have the balls to say it just happened to be a random gathering of a bunch of like- minded people?

Was is just a well meaning flash mob gone wrong?

I think that a lot of it came to be because everyone had just sat back and watched months and months of protests, and buildings burned, and cars burned, and huge crowds breaking shit and throwing things, and it was all looked at as though it was justified and acceptable. and as long as you were standing up for something you believed was right you could get away with anything protest related.

it came to be because of Qanon. I know you are wanting it to be Trump, but Trump fell for the social media crap all the Qanon nutters were posting. I don't think Trump ever really understood how whacked out those people were. Trump wanted peaceful demonstrations with big numbers of people. That's all he wanted.

But even that was stupid, all of it was stupid. Im not making excuses for anyone that was involved in any of it. you play stupid games and you win stupid prizes.

Fair. I am decided not to denigrate in any way, but wish to express my own thoughts.

It came to be because for months prior to the election Trump planted seeds that it "will be the most corrupt election in history".



I agree with Qanon stuff contributing but how does that explain Charlie Kirk ALSO being involved? This was more organized than people want to admit.





Final question. Do you think it would be the responsibility of the President of the United States to use whatever means necessary to prevent the actions of the mob on January 6th? Why did it take HOURS to end when Trump had the ability to summon police, National Guard, etc. to protect the US Capitol?

I am really not sure how hands on an actual president would be in terms of crowd security at any single event. And i'm not so politically skewed in the brain as to think that capital police or national guards or any other branch of security would have some kind of political agenda one way or the other. I am sure that whoever was in charge of crowd control that day thought they had the proper preparation. Hindsight is a wonderful tool when all you have to do is pick apart what didn't work.

I know that I was concerned that some nut jobs would show up and do some stupid stuff that day and my only source of information was CaptQ. But he seemed to have a direct link to the QAnon talking points and updates. I assume the capital police had better information than I did.

Rep. Waters did not call for an 'illegal immigrant' Supreme Court justice
A review of CNN transcripts found no such quote from the Democrat.

DOCTORED

A doctored image circulated on social media falsely depicts Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) calling for an "illegal immigrant" to be made a Supreme Court justice.

"The next Supreme Court Justice should be an illegal immigrant," reads a quote attributed to Waters on a widely shared Facebook post. In the photo, which appears to show Waters giving a CNN interview, a chyron under the lawmaker's image reads, "Waters: SCOTUS pick should be illegal immigrant."

But a review of CNN transcripts found no such quote from the Democrat, who is a frequent target of criticism from conservatives on social media.

The image of the California lawmaker appears to have been lifted and doctored from an appearance she made on the network in October 2017, during which she made no such remark about putting an undocumented immigrant on the Supreme Court.

On Oct. 9, the Facebook post had roughly 175,000 shares and remained active. The doctored image also appeared earlier this year on Trump Nation, a website for supporters of President Donald Trump.

A reader flagged this item to the POLITICO fake news database.

While those are amusing there is really no need to create fake stuff.
The Dims do enough mockable stuff on their own.
Here is Keith Ellison proudly wearing his "Open Borders" T-shirt...but Democrats dont REALLY believe in open borders, right? :lol:

Some people, maybe a generation or two removed from people who have entered this country seem to think it's a positive.

Why wouldn't they support opportunity? Oh right. Only certain people can have nice things.

Nope. I said that if it has benefitted previous generations, why wouldn't THOSE PEOPLE see it as an opportunity for others like themselves.

NOWHERE DID I COMMENT ON THE CURRENT SITUATION YOU MORON.

Well, I guess that special kind of asshole that thinks our borders should be protected and not overrun by unknown millions of people. You now, the same crazy way that most Americans think.
