Trump: 'Unselect Committee' Should Investigate Pence, Pelosi
So pathetic to watch the Unselect Committee of political hacks, liars, and traitors work so feverishly to alter the Electoral College Act so that a Vice President cannot ensure the honest results of the election, when just one year ago they said that 'the Vice President has absolutely no right to ensure the true outcome or results of an election,'
Still lying tru his Teeth ,

Try and make it complicated
Barr refuses & resigns. DHS is a no. With new post-election appointees at DoD, all former living SecDefs write an Op-Ed demanding hands off & even Rudy agrees. So who keeps it moving-soliciting, attempting & conspiring to overthrow the election? The guy tearing up the records.

Are politically-motivated protests always bad? Or only when Republicans do it? Seems like a simple question.

Some records sent to Jan. 6 committee were torn up, taped back together — mirroring a Trump habit
The National Archives confirmed Trump’s unusual habit of ripping up documents, which forced aides to attempt to piece them back together in order to comply with the Presidential Records Act.
Of course no respect for the office AMERICA 1st LOL its always been Trump 1st

What a surprise
I’m starting to think the guy who wouldn’t show his taxes, medical records, biz records, school records, and tore up every White House doc he touched might be trying to hide something.

if it’s true that he considered having the military seize voting machines in disputed states with zero evidence they were tampered with, that should be enough for no rational person to support him.
i really, really, really don’t want him to run again. I believe no one else on the planet could have defeated Hilary in 2016, and in doing so he helped move scotus away from being a group of activists willing to ignore the constitution when they felt like it. that’s a good legacy.
Time for him to go. Preferably far away.

On this we agree
However the faithful regardless of the evidence
Will Take to the streets at his beckoned call not for the county or to protest legislation
But because Trump told them to do it , just like He did Jan 6th .
Trump thinks just like like Hugo Chávez And Nicolás Maduro
Dictatorships are often characterised by some of the following: suspension of elections and civil liberties; proclamation of a state of emergency; rule by decree; repression of political opponents; not abiding by the rule of law procedures, and cult of personality.
Trump checks all these Boxes

there are people
who will defend him no matter what. as a republican that saddens me.
there are others who will burn buildings to the ground and loot stores because they’re told cops are the enemy.
there’s a lot of thoughtlessness out there.
i don’t choose to be a republican because i think the average republican voter is morally superior to the average liberal voter. I’m a republican because if you compare what each side honestly, truly stands for, i like the GOPs platform
better.

"a majority of Democrats embrace restrictive policies, including punitive measures against those who haven’t gotten the COVID-19 vaccine.
55% of Democratic voters would support a proposal for federal or state governments to fine Americans who choose not to get a COVID-19 vaccine.
Fifty-nine percent (59%) of Democratic voters would favor a government policy requiring that citizens remain confined to their homes at all times, except for emergencies, if they refuse to get a COVID-19 vaccine.
Nearly half (48%) of Democratic voters think federal and state governments should be able to fine or imprison individuals who publicly question the efficacy of the existing COVID-19 vaccines.
Forty-five percent (45%) of Democrats would favor governments requiring citizens to temporarily live in designated facilities or locations if they refuse to get a COVID-19 vaccine.
47% of Democrats favor a government tracking program for those who won’t get the COVID-19 vaccine allowing governments using digital devices to track unvaccinated people to ensure that they are quarantined or socially distancing from others.
Twenty-nine percent (29%) of Democratic voters would support temporarily removing parents’ custody of their children if parents refuse to take the COVID-19 vaccine.
President Biden’s strongest supporters are most likely to endorse the harshest punishments against those who won’t get the COVID-19 vaccine."

so does Biden. You just can’t/won’t see it because you like him.
Under Biden, a declaration of
emergency resulted in churches being closed because public gatherings were dangerous, but BLM riots were allowed to continue and liquor stores could stay open. There have been mandates to get medicine injected into your body ( interesting from democrats who on the issue of abortion, claim that individuals have the right to make their own medical decisions). and democrats are absolutely all about censoring those with whom they disagree. that happens constantly. that’s what “cancel culture” is.
not abiding by rule of law? how many prominent democrats have been seen violating mask mandates, including the hysterical photo of a maskless Biden in a Nantucket store standing behind a sign that says masks required. ask the folks whose homes and businesses were burned by BLM in the summer of love, if democrats embrace the rule
of law? which side is dedicated to sanctuary cities, the sole purpose of which is to protect illegal immigrants from deportation, AFTER they’ve committed additional
crimes here. that’s supporting the rule of law?
there’s good and bad on both sides. but you can’t concede that.
repressing political
opponents? what was biden doing, when he told blacks that “republicans want to put y’all back in chains?”
your side made up rape allegations against a supreme court justice who is the second coming of Ward Cleaver. they did it, because they didn’t like his politics.

of course you would point to a survey from this source if fits perfectly into the world of the MAGA cult
National Survey of 1,000 U.S. Likely Voters
Conducted December 29-30, 2021
By Rasmussen Reports
1* Do you have a very favorable, somewhat favorable, somewhat unfavorable or very unfavorable impression of the FBI?
2* Is Christopher Wray a better or worse FBI director than most of those who held the job before him? Or is his performance about the same?
3* Is the FBI director influenced by the president in his decision-making, or is he truly independent of the administration?
4* Do you agree or disagree with this statement: There is "a group of politicized thugs at the top of the FBI who are using the FBI … as Joe Biden‘s personal Gestapo?”? wow no Bias in that question
Overall, we rate Law Enforcement Today far-Right Biased based on story selection and editorial positions that align with the conservative right. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to the use of poor sources, lack of transparency, and failed fact checks.

it wasn’t a biden rant. it was a rant about you sometimes getting it right when you criticize the gop, but never being able to see flaws in the left.
the things i pointed out, what did i “imagine”? what did i say bay wasn’t true?
i never came close to saying that biden is a bigger threat than trump. never came close to saying it.
But here’s the hard math. The january 6th rioters killed zero people. Quite a few were killed in the summer of love.
that may change. if it does, i’ll
admit it.
I said trump needs to go far away. maybe it would make you happier if i said i think we should burn him
to death once and for all? what more do you want?
Biden has trampled on liberties, the courts have said so with his
mandates.
Liberals are way more likely to want to censure political opponents than conservatives
and your side didn’t like Kavanaughs personal
politics, so they tried to ruin his life.
Make that one wrong.

The FBI closed its extended background check of Kavanaugh after four days and did not interview either Blasey Ford or Kavanaugh. The FBI also disclosed to the Senate this June – two years after questions were initially asked – that it had received 4,500 tips from the public during the background check and that it had shared all “relevant tips” with the White House counsel at that time. It is not clear whether those tips were ever investigated.
The FBI said in its letter to two senators – Sheldon Whitehouse and Christopher Coons – that the FBI did not have the authority under the 2010 MOU at the time to “unilaterally conduct further investigative activity absent instructions from the requesting entity”. In other words, the FBI has said it would have required explicit instructions from the Trump White House to conduct further investigation under the existing 2010 guidelines on how such investigations ought to be conducted.

Actually they would have found that he was as described at Yale if they interviewed some of the 4000 reports they received instead of turning them over to the White House.
Now back to how Trump was never convicted

We always can count on Pete persuading us with powerful suppositions which might possibly come close enough to actually being true.

Ohio secretary of state finds 27 potentially illegal votes
out of 6 million Cast
Investigation finds only 475 cases of potential voter fraud in battleground states won by Biden looks like there is no issue with voter integrity . unless your a republican?
But for the Cult 475 case proves voter fraud exist and their conspiracy it proven
but voter Fraud looks like this
A Wisconsin man who mistakenly thought he could vote while on parole.
A woman in Arizona suspected of sending in a ballot for her dead mother.
A Pennsylvania man who went twice to the polls, voting once on his own behalf and once for his son.
There was no widespread, coordinated deceit... but dont tell Republicans or Trump fans just more fake news
