If any Democratic president did this the entire MSM would speak of nothing else until that prez was in prison. A republican does it and we arent even talking about him going to prison, well we are but nobody else is.

This is the greatest example of how BROKEN our system is and how cons can violate the law daily with no repercussions.

Watching Four Hours at the Capitol & the most striking thing about the scenes where police are completely overrun by fascists & white supremacists is the fact that their guns stay holstered the entire time.

Meanwhile, a Black or Brown kid reaching in his pocket for ID or moving period presents a clear threat to officer safety. And most juries would agree that that kid can be justifiably murdered according to the perverse logics of policing.

Police didn’t deploy deadly force to prevent the crowd from entering the Capitol grounds or even building because this is precisely who and what policing intends to protect even when it presents a clear danger to officers themselves.

The fascists and white supremacists paint themselves as the “back the blue” crowd and talk shit about BLM and antifa and meanwhile they physically assaulted police and berated them throughout the entirely of the siege.

This highlights the fractured nature of the relationship between police, fascists, and white supremacists. Particularly as it revolves around contests of masculinity. One of the scenes shows a person storming the Capitol tell an officer to “get a real job fag.”

Trump Ally Rudy Giuliani seeks To Block Feds From Getting 3 Items of Thousands Seized Under Search Warrant.

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/11/02/trump-l ... items.html

Rudy Giuliani, who served as personal lawyer for former President Donald Trump, so far is seeking to prevent prosecutors from seeing just three items out of the more than 2,000 contained on some of the electronic devices seized from him as part of a criminal probe, a court filing revealed Tuesday.

Giuliani is claiming that those three items are protected by attorney-client privilege, which would prevent them from being given to federal prosecutors, according to Barbara Jones, the so-called special master who is adjudicating such claims.

I am reserving decision on those three items,” Jones wrote in her filing in U.S. District Court in Manhattan. “The remaining 2,223 items have been released to the Government.”

Me Thinks Ghouli is laying large, smelly, liquid brown spots in his pants right now.

I am amazed at how much people here believe that Republicans are this evil force that wants to destroy the country.......by design and on purpose.

Not that they believe the conservative programs will destroy the country but that those programs have been designed by evil Republicans to purposely destroy our country.

I don't know if there would be more profit in selling that crowd depends or tin foil hats.

Of course you're amazed. You're not following along. It doesn't matter how low the GOP goes, there is no bottom; you push your own personal reset dial and move the goal posts, then plug your ears. You're an active or passive gaslighter. I'm not sure which. We can ALL see what's happened with Trumpism, and the GOP's undying lock in step fealty to a crazy, unfit dictator who attempted a coup. Trump committed serious crimes, was impeached twice for those crimes, and committed 10 counts of obstruction of justice as cited in the MR, and the GOP tried to bury that, too.

Your entire party lied about a deadly virus and let it run rampant over the United States. They're still pushing disinformation about it. But you don't think that's evil.

What is the conservative platform? What are their policies and programs? Lay them out, because they don't have anything aside from pushing fear based lies and distractions, which is what authoritarians do.

And what's really sad is your projection. You've made countless claims that the Democratic Party is going to destroy the United States when the party you cheer for is destroying democracy.

As opposed to the Q-Publicans who gathered together at Dealey Plaza in Dallas Texas to await with bated breath for the return of their anointed leader John F. Kennedy Jr Glenn? They actually JFK Jr is alive and well AND he will the Traitor's VP in 2024.

These people are Bat Shit Crazy, they believe a dead man will become the Traitor's VP.

As for Republicans being Evil.

Actively engaging in Voter Suppression.

Passing highly restrictive Abortion Laws.

Aligning themselves With White Nationalists/White Supremacists/Neo-Nazis.

Denying the January 6, 2021 Insurrection.

Denying President Biden is the legitimate Democratically Elected President of The United States and instead they push "The Big Lie".

Demanding "Audits" of certain States Election Results, which to date have turned up nothing except that yes, Biden did win.

Pushing Anti-LGBTQ Laws.

Oppose Family Leave.

Yes Glenn, Q-Publicans are evil. They are a threat to our National Security.

These are the people you continue to defend Glenn, if you support them, then you support their actions and you do not get to cherry pick either...These people Dictatorship Glenn remember that.

:lol:

You actually accept irrational theologies like Original Sin, which says every single human being is born evil by default. So I don’t see what you’re complaining about.

Have you wandered off the progressive reservation again? You know what that does to some folks around here. It’s impossible for them to reconcile.

One thing you'll never do is wander off the conservative reservation. You're in for whatever they do, even if it's attempted revolution. First time since the Civil War we haven't had a peaceful transfer of power, and you don't give a shit.

Apparently Joe.

Apparently pointing out that a Virginia state political pattern for electing Governors which has existed since Ronald Reagan's time has simply continued unbroken for 40 years, that being the reason for the election results on Tuesday. It not not being the fault of Joe Biden, or my fault, that is too much for them to take.

That or Pepto Bismol is the wrong color.

Hmm, careful with that.

Sam Lefthand thinks it's some kind of badge of honor to say he's never called himself a "progressive," that he's always called himself a Democrat. Which is fine and all; I'm not a "progressive," either, and stopped being one during the Bush43 years. There's nothing wrong with that.

Ironically, too many of them turned out to be blue grass blue dogs who fall for cons like Van Jones and Tulsi Gabbard on the one hand, and jobsandtheeconomy/Hillbilly Elegies Trumpers on the other. Like Sam Lefthand, Ike Bana, and others of that demographic, they've only gotten worse and more sycophantic to white conservatism, as the years lumber on.
