Or, now hear me out, Bannon and the Trumpists are trashing the concept of co-equal branches of government. I mean, are they all such snowflakes that they can't be man enough to do what Hillary did for 11 hours? |
Free speech has limits. So says SCOTUS
Inciting violence isn’t protected. |
Bannon did not incite violence. You need receipts to prove your statement. Just because you write that statement does not make that true. |
PP (or PPs) who is defending Bannon, can you please respond to this? |
That is the version the GQP pushes In reality, school board members/officials are being threatened with violence and yes, THAT is terrorism (Jeff-this was in the right thread. I got confused and thought I had put it in the incorrect one) |
Long Island/Nassau County local elections were all won by Republicans: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/08/nyregion/nassau-county-republicans-election.html NJ State Senate Leader (D) ousted by Republican newcomer. NJ governor race within 2 points. Republicans resurgent in local NJ elections. |
The video posted earlier should be pretty clear evidence |
If you are really interested in hearing what Bannon said leading up to January 6 -- go directly to his podcasts which are just audio versions of his livestreamed shows. BANNON NEVER called for violence. He has always advocated peaceful protests/political activism through voting and getting involved in local politics. I hate injustice and hate how the Biden Administration is weaponizing DOJ against Bannon and other political opponents. As a country, we should be afraid for the attack on our 1st Amendment and attempt to silence political opponents. |
Bannon wanted to burn it all down figuratively, starting before Trump's presidency. That is separate from January 6, which was a failed insurrection. The Jan 6 committee wants to ask him questions about the events leading up to and the day of. And he said No. So now they are holding him in contempt. None of this is something that our country should fear. This is not about silencing political opponents. |
He needs to answer questions about his involvement.
They want him to talk, not silence him |
If pro-Bannon folks think this is about shutting down free speech, then why isn't Bannon using this platform to speak? This is a perfect opportunity to go before Congress and blow everything wide open, no?
It's easy to spout nonsense and conspiracy theories on your entertainment show; not so easy to do that under oath. And that is why none of the #stopthesteal lawsuits produced any evidence that proved the election was stolen. |
Because he doesn't have to. |
Its just a political witch hunt.
J6 Committee is going nowhere. |
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL You think it would be fair? Let me guess, you believed the fraudulent Russian Collusion/Steele Dossier hoax? Mainstream media and Democratic leaders LIED to you. And you still trust the process. |
And the virus was a hoax. And hydroxychloroquine is a cure. And I can draw a line with a sharpie pen where I want to and etc. etc. etc. etc. Yeah, someone lied to us and tried to dupe us . . . a LOT. |
