    Secret Service could have been genuinely concerned for pence’s well-being. Their default is safety. The maga mob was riotous, violent and looking for pence. They chanted they wanted to hang him.
    But, it’s troublesome Pence thought there was ulterior motives to the Secret service request. Specifically he thought they were loyal to trump and part of an attempted coup.

    No surprise, fox won't be airing the hearings. I'm also wondering about what shenanigans the gop will engage in to disrupt the hearings.

    From speech today…..


    Speaking during a Faith and Freedom event in Nashville, Tenn., Trump said the defendants charged in the Capitol riot were “having their lives totally destroyed and being treated worse than terrorists and murderers,” claiming that most had been “charged with parading through the Capitol.

    And if I become president, someday if I decide to do it, I will be looking at them very, very seriously for pardons. Very, very seriously,” he added.“

    don’t view Trump’s statement in isolation. This is a continuation of the same behavior. He is courting them and their votes. They did what he wanted them to do. And would again, too. And, the large majority his party is solidly aligned with what they did. If he is elected again, he will pardon them. Every one of them.

    Courts still working thru cases of those accused of storming the capital….

    “Cody Mattice, 29, and James Mault, 30, both received 44 months of prison time on Friday, according to records from the Justice Department. In April, the two pleaded guilty to assaulting law enforcement officers during the Capitol riot,

    After breaching the Capitol, Mattice "reached out to another rioter and grabbed a small object appearing to be a canister," the release says. "He then sprayed chemical spray at police officers."

    Two men who pepper-sprayed officers at Capitol riot wept at sentencing

    Bannon gives up the game plan - just start claiming the win and tweeting complete BS.
    Warning NSFW language.

    Trump did everything Bannon said he would. More proof that this entire thing was planned.

    Bannon is an overt, self-declared fascist. And a con-man criminal to boot.

    This accused Tampa Jan. 6 insurrectionist is running for Florida House from jail

    LARGO — Jeremy Michael Brown, the lone Republican awaiting the Democratic primary winner for a Florida House seat representing parts of Pinellas and Hillsborough counties, is facing charges related to the Jan. 6 insurrection.

    And he’s running his campaign from the Pinellas County Jail, where he is being held on felony federal weapons charges stemming from his arrest for misdemeanor trespassing and disruptive conduct in connection to the attack on the U.S. Capitol.

    Brown was photographed outside the Capitol in full tactical gear as hundreds disrupted congressional certification of Joe Biden’s electoral victory. He said he believes fraud was involved in the 2020 presidential election.

    Now Brown, 47, is running for public office in the same electoral system he says is tainted. Unless convicted of one of the felonies, he will be on the November ballot against the Democratic nominee.
