Capitol Riot Hearing Shows Domestic Terrorism Is Alive And Well In U.S. | The 11th Hour | MSNBC

63 comments

  1. Trump’s psychiatrist told him: “You’re going crazy”. Trump told him: “I’d like a second opinion”. The doctor said, “Alright, you’re ugly too”.

    1. @BostonBruins 88 a whole month i the past after he tried to overthrow our democracy. Your obsession is denying reality bootlicker

  2. The Oaf Tweakers who stormed the Capitol thought they were going to start a revolution that day, the same way their hero TMcVeigh thought he was going to start a revolution.

    1. @BostonBruins 88 let’s just get real for a second, shall we? Protesting is a 1st Amendment Right! Regardless of the “Who, what, why, when or how”, people are gonna disagree with the reasons. But the facts are this as well; opportunists well do and act to cause harm and destruction and even death in order to discredit the causes of these protests, and will lay claim as being apart of the group’s doing the protesting. Those who caused that kind of chaos deserves to be arrested and charged and face their consequences!!

      Those that took place at the US Capitol, that breached those doors and proudly did so under the guise of being “told to do so”, take no responsibility for their actions. Proudly and loudly say they did for our president. And in the same breath, blame ANTIFA!! So the whataboutisms is old and tiring!! You can’t have it both ways!!

      Carry On!!

    2. @FRAG OUT Can you site where they were told to do so? Trump condemned violence multiple times on Twitter, told everyone to go home and to respect police officers because they’re on your side… am I missing something? He tweeted it multiple times and even put out a video. Tel me where he incited violence please. Cause I can link about 100 videos of Democrats telling supporters to invite violence on Trump supporters. Please show me how he was inciting violence. Impeachment sham failed to do so.

    3. @BostonBruins 88 When Trump told his mob to go home, the word quickly went round and they went home. But Trump didn’t tell them to go home until he knew their targets had escaped. That’s the bit you are missing.

  3. We do know why the authorities were not ready. We do know why the authorities do not take domestic terrorism seriously.

    1. The authorities do not take domestic terrorism seriously because domestic terrorists have infiltrated the authorities.

    2. Its because of the left wing racist within the DEm Party as well as MSM that endorsed violence and terrorism against the middle class during all of 2020 and part of 2019

    3. Shame you were blind 2 it all in the summer. You along with cnn and democrats are the most dangerous domestic terrorists in America

    1. @Weston W that’s the thing nobody did. He lost the popular vote in both elections. The electoral college needs to be dismantled

    2. @Republicans are terrorists so pretending 70 some million Americans don’t exist is your solution? No wonder Trump says he can shoot someone and get away with it. Americans will never admit reality.

    1. Domestic terrorism occurred during all of 2020 and well as part of 2019. Violent left wing riots occurred for over a year yet parts of the gov and MSNBC shielded the terrorists.

  4. A disgusting and evil place has been attained by the evil politics of my country.. I’m so proud to be American right now. 😞

    1. We need Sedition Laws. It should be illegal to claim an election was rigged when it wasn’t. It’s literally the equivalent of screaming fire in a packed theatre, full of agitated Nazis. And it’s,taking lives! A swift, harsh Sedition Law that applies to politicians and, “media,” outlets specifically! ✌️

    1. @Louisa Now i agree whit you!! Thinking that you know whats best for others wyle you think that your above everybody else never works !! And never has.

    2. @Louisa Now Hi Louisa Now, What you are describing is human character flaws that exist in every political side. When you say “Angry White Man Culture” that is meant to discredit an individual you despise in order to gain a political advantage. If I was a betting man, I would say that the left is intentionally creating a racial divide in order to obstruct votes for the conservatives. In other words, I question their intentions. I think it is rather unfortunate because we could potentially have a brand new conservative party that would benefit people of all races.

    3. @Pat Mahinie Which policies are you refering to when you say, “progressives are offering hate and destruction?”
      Dont you find it strange that throughout history the progressives are always on the right and winning side of history?…
      Ending slavery, votes for women, union rights, equal rights, equal pay, minimum wage, LGB rights, marriage for all…etc..and yet conservatives are always against every single advancement we make but in the end usually come round to accepting them and being for them almost grudgingly.
      What new proposals do conservatives make, what are conservative policies other than being against whatever new proposals progressives want to make?
      What new legislation did Trump enact that wasnt just removing old legislation? What did Trump do that improved the rights of people? I know he promised to remove the ACA and replace it with a cheaper better system that covered everyone, so universal healthcare, but he didnt do it. What did he do to benefit the world?

    4. @Neil Rusling Hi Neil Rusling, I admit that some of the progressive policies such as marriage for all were not the main concern for conservatives but times are changing. In order to explore progressive ideals there has to be a strong foundation built on personal responsibility. That sense of personal responsibility is lacking equally on both sides.
      Whether we like it or not, Border control is needed. We need to give a helping hand to the ones struggling in this country before we can help more people. We also need our police reformed but not removed or defunded. We have to be realistic about things. I specifically did well under Trump because I operate a small business. His tax bracket made it simple for me and many other people.

    5. @rodnie struiken That’s true, I agree. Sure takes a long time for that to become obvious to all, though, doesn’t it? I hope all humanity will strive to treat each other better. Dream goals, I know, but still….

  5. The boogymen thou looketh for without, already lies within. It’s closer than you think. Like the smell of aftershave on ones mustache. Jan 6th proved that point.

  6. The USA has never been so weak as it was at the end of the Trump’s presidency and Republicans seem determined to weaken it further.

    1. @Spider Taylor oh hahaha man have you been taking notes from Qanon?
      Qanon claiming our government is filled with pedophiles is more credible then that idiotic comment.
      You do know that Trump got overwhelmingly high voter turn out from the hispanic community right?
      Communities that usually voted democrat.

    2. @Spider Taylor do you just make stuff up or do you get our so called information from NPR,CNN or MSNBC.
      The modern day conspiracy networks

    3. @Spider Taylor I’m not on the right or the left.
      I am an American and I like to out america first because america first benefits everyone.

  7. its ok,all those terrorists look the same. red around the neck.
    u can catch them @ target practice,usually wearing hunting camo,shooting animals for fun.

  8. They had the National Guard deployed and ready when BLM protested in DC, with over 14,000 arrested. The Zombie MAGApocalypse was allowed to come and go as they pleased after overrunning the Capitol. It’s not intelligence failure, it was Wink Wink Nudge Nudge.

  9. ‘White’ wash takes on a new meaning due to the willful blindness. American terror and downfall is an inside job from here on.

  10. I pray, that, once Merrick Garland is confirmed, that he would hunt and catch all these traitors and rebels.

    1. If your cell phone location services show you crossed the first barricade, you committed a felony or six. People died. You are complicit in a capital crime. If you try to delete or modify your location data you are committing another felony that can be used as an aggravting circumstance in your sentencing.

      About 5,000 people need to knw they are looking at the rope and better be turning over all their accounts to Homeland Security so we can identify and prosecute the drivers of this henious act of treachery and treason.

  11. This riot was well planned and paid for so i don’t know why hearings when there’s no accountability or justice in this case just arests and fines for rioters this is a serious case that no one should get away with.

  12. They keep comparing this to the BLM stuff. The difference is that this was a lot worse than that as we’re getting further details about it since it happened.

  13. “Warning didn’t reach the top”? Gimme a break. Trump had his loyalists in the Dept of Defense standing down for his followers. They were only ready to deploy for BLM.
