Exactly. This situation reminds me of the saying: There are 3 kinds of people in the world. Those who make things happen, those who watch what happens, and those who say, “What just happened?” The people who say Jan. 6 was just some excited tourists won’t watch the testimony of the January 6 Committee, which was pretty well done IMO. They watch brief news clips, but only on certain stations. Hillary was right- some people I’d toss into the basket of deplorables. |

Amid an ongoing wave of conspiracy theories and bogus claims about Jan 6, I’ll note this from our reporting:
Rioters made all kinds of claims and defenses in court … and jurors convicted 100% of the defendants who went to trial 100% |
BOOM! That's pretty freaking shocking. |
Think if he got his way, would there be no more of him after '24, that is if we even got to '24 under him. Sigh. |
| y'all ignoring the busloads of "patriots" that Charles Kirk and Ginny Thomas bused in. You are ignoring that anyone paying attention knew this was going to happen that day, based on Trump tweets and other information that came out in December 2020. Stop with the conspiracy theories. It was a coup attempt against our country. |

So then-President Trump’s handpicked Republican FBI Director allowed 274 FBI agents to join the crowd?
Is that what Trump and his minions are arguing? |
| So Trump is still making excuses for Trump’s Insurrection? Patel didn’t even back him on this yesterday. |
| I think the protestors at this time were upset after McDonalds increased the prices. |
| Can someone please explain to me what this Fed agent new talking point is? Are MAGA trying to blame this on Dems although this was in Trump’s term. Someone said Pelosi didn’t call NG because they would discover the FbI in attendance. I’m not following and don’t care to deep dive. |
Apparently, Australia conservatives are joining in the blame on American liberals too. |
FBI in attendance under Trump's term is actually really bad for Republicans, so I don't know what twist in the pretzel they are following right now. |
Maybe they are saying the MAGAs in the FBI were helping the insurrection so they should be arrested too? |
And yet, Trump proved last month that a president, not the speaker of the House, can call the National Guard to Washington DC. |
