    Fox is 100% propaganda. Their mission aligns and/or McCarthy was probably “ordered” to hand it over by his bosses in the freedom caucus. I was thinking it may have been part of his dealings to win the speakers vote. McCarthy is a scumbag, but even he probably knows this isn’t exactly helpful to him personally or for convincing serious people of anything. All it does is give oxygen to nutjobs.

    Fox may as well be an arm of the FSB for all the damage they are doing.

    Kind of like Pencil neck Schiff releasing selective findings from his time on the house intel committee to reinforce his narrative?

    “Adam Schiff lied to the American people, and during my time as CIA director and secretary of State, I know that he leaked classified information that had been provided to him,” Pompeo alleged during an interview with Fox News.

    Not saying the Pompeo lied but let's keep in mind that he is seeking the presidential nomination of a party still dominated by Trump and that his target (Adam Schiff) is a Democratic member of the House long demonized by Donald Trump.

    “Omg I did so much f---ing s--- rn and got away tell you later," Daniel "D.J." Rodriguez, of Fontana, California, wrote in a group chat with other rioters, ….Tazzzzed the f--- out of the blue."

    “A Jan. 6 rioter used an "electroshock weapon" to assault Metropolitan Police Officer Michael Fanone and then bragged about the attack to friends pleaded guilty to related charges Tuesday…. Rodriguez is more likely to face a sentence in the range of 7-10 years.

    Prosecutors alleged Rodriguez and another California man, Edward Badalian, were part of a Telegram group chat called the “Patriots 45 MAGA Gang.

    ……,,we need to violently remove traitors," according to the indictment. Rodriguez allegedly posted that he was in: "Congress can hang. I'll do it. Please let us get these people dear God,"

    Tourists don't injure 140 police officers by sightseeing," Pence said. "Tourists don't break down doors to get to the Speaker of the House or voice threats against public officials.

    Make no mistake about it, what happened that day was a disgrace, and it mocks decency to portray it in any other way," Pence said

    President Trump was wrong. I had no right to overturn the election and his reckless words endangered my family and everyone at the Capitol that day, and I know that history will hold Donald Trump accountable," Pence said.”

    ”A Jan. 6 defendant who was charged alongside the Donald Trump supporter who drove a stun gun into the neck of a Washington, D.C., police officer
    during the Capitol attack was convicted Tuesday on three counts.

    Badalian drove a rented van across the country along with Rodriguez and told members of the groups that he had packed a respirator, masks, snow goggles, kneepads and baseball helmets for the group

    Our duly elected leader has called his marching orders, we gotta show up,” Badalian wrote in the “Patriots 45 MAGA Gang” chat on Dec. 21. Jackson said Tuesday that the Trump tweet gave the group "the focus it needs," by giving them a time and location.

    …ordered him to wear an ankle monitor. Walking out of the courtroom on Tuesday, Badalian called that "cruel and unusual punishment."

    Jan. 6 rioter who said he was following Trump's 'marching orders' and wanted to arrest Biden and Pelosi is found guilty

    Capitol rioter who crushed officer with shield gets 7 years

    A man who used a stolen riot shield to crush a police officer in a doorframe during the U.S. Capitol insurrection was sentenced on Friday to more than seven years in prison for his role in one of the most violent episodes of the Jan. 6 attack.

    Federal prosecutors had recommended a prison sentence of 15 years and eight months for Patrick McCaughey III, which would have been the longest sentence for a Capitol riot case by more than five years.

    U.S. District Judge Trevor McFadden sentenced McCaughey to seven years and six months in prison followed by two years of supervised release. The judge described McCaughey, 25, as a “poster child of all that was dangerous and appalling about” the Jan. 6, 2021, riot.

    “Your actions are some of the most egregious crimes that were committed on that dark day,” the judge told McCaughey.

    But it can’t have been an insurrection- they weren’t armed. They were armed.

    I didn't realize for some time that Ashli Babbitt had a Paraforce tactical folding knife. Not saying that's why she was shot because I don't think the officer saw it. I'm also sad that she lost her life. But why take a tactical knife into the Capitol for a peaceful protest? If anything, I think you'd be extra careful to not have anything on you that could get you in more trouble for trespassing or disrupting the session. So it would make little sense to take a weapon unless you thought there was a decent chance that you were going to use it.

    After she sharpened and then packed her knife, who did she envision stabbing? BLM protesters? Antifa? Cops? congressmen? So much of maga has violence on their mind. It’s obvious what I think of trump and what maga stands for, but I never sit around and think about physically cutting them to shreds because a specific politician lost an election. What is wrong with maga?!?
