    1. It should be today! There should be protests choking the streets of Washington. For the sake of National Security, we should be demanding the removal of this Clear And Present Danger who just added four more corpses to his body count, to heap on top of the countless dead (AND DYING!) Covid victims and our ASSASSINATED TROOPS! Get him OUT! Do it today! Or worse is yet to come!

    1. ​@duce wags If you truely belived this you would vote Socialist. Because you can rap it enyway you whont, This is SOCIALIST values. and non of this has ever been a gould for D J Trump. a Conman, TV selebrety playing millioner on TV, all the money he ever inhereded is gone, he is known for using other peoplels money, and there is a reasen why he cant get a lone from US banks. befor, during and after he coned his way in to the position as President.

    2. He goes from one act of stupidity to topping it with an even more outrageous one. Yeah, I’m pretty sure there’s more ahead.

    3. @KemPoW 321 until they appeal and show the laws they say we have the right to because that building belongs to the american people not the governments

    4. @michigan trapper We don’t have the right too overthrow a government elected by the people. This is treason… insurrection.. sedition. There is big punishment’s for these crimes.

    1. They are called lawmakers not law enforcement because part of their job description is to oppose the law (not violate) when they disagree. The law at one time would have allowed me to own a black person should the politicians who opposed that law have been held accountable?

  1. Well said I think that Ted Cruz should be held accountable as well as Josh should be all accountable as well as Mitch McConnell and every other Republican that’s encourage these lies even when there was no proof fraud.Republicans who encouraged and enticed trump supporters and now look at the outcome of your democracy that is in question.

    1. @it’s me, Georgina His Lawyers are advising him and he is listening for the first time.

    2. @it’s me, Georgina lol just because he says it doesn’t mean there will be a “peaceful transfer of power”. His track record and dangerous retoric speak for itself. Wake TF up champ.

    3. @Drew Vac
      I know, I also got the feeling his message was coded,,, but the 25th ammenment… no longer an option, not before an eventual new attack and dangerous situation occurs, And I have to tell you, I don’t rule that out 😂😂

    1. Woke up America ! All Proud boys should be hanged in the streets for their treasonous coup, Whoever, punishment for treason owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and …

  2. The first ones that were arrested are already back home! Guys that were IN the capitol!
    Ridiculous

    1. @joshydep84
      Are you daft? Or just unable to make obvious connections. If so I can hold youre hand and walk you through it.

    2. @Belleza Vudd first of all I never mentioned Trump and then you introduced him into the conversation. Typical

    3. @joshydep84
      Ok so you havent been paying attention. Typical.

      Why do you think that a single person was at the capitol. Trump told them to go there. Is your memory that bad ? Its only been a few days.
      Which is why I asked my 1st question to your comment.

    4. @Belleza Vudd and did he say to break into the Capitol Building? Did he say to harm people? Nowhere did he ask for radical action. This went beyond Trump. People were frustrated and had been disenfranchised all year long. The aim wasn’t the liberal left. It was Congress as a whole. Both sides needed a good eye opening scare. Sorry it got to that point but I’m glad it shook some people up and made politicians realize they’re not untouchable.

    1. The GOP are going to wish they had allowed Garland to be a judge, now. He’s going to hunt them all down. From the mob to the Cabinet, trump will not know what hit him. He’s scared now. He’ll be terrified in two weeks . . . or maybe less ✌️

    2. Woke up America ! All Proud boys should be hanged in the streets for their treasonous coup, Whoever, punishment for treason owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and …

  3. 50 or 100 years from now, students of his history will read about the insurrection of 2021 and will be keen to know what actions were taken to identify and charge the culprits. We have no choice but to identify and charge everyone involved.

  4. And anyone from within the Capital Police who aided and abetted these insurrectionists must be charged as well. They are traitors.

    1. Woke up America ! All Proud boys should be hanged in the streets for their treasonous coup, Whoever, punishment for treason owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and …

    2. But y’all are okay with Biden cheating? Stealing an election is against the Constitution as well. And I don’t want to hear that the thousands of witnesses were all liars, that the electronic trails and the videos aren’t what they appear, and that the multiple impossible statistical anomalies were possible. I’m not that stupid.

    1. nope. blm and antifa have rioted, assaulted, and laid siege on CITIES, and no one does anything. Its frustrating, right?

  5. Are they going to prosecute the cops who let them in or took selfies with the traitors who stormed the capitol?

    1. Well, chief of Washington Police is resigning on January 16,, a few days before he would have had responsibility of keeping the capital safe on Biden’s inauguration day — it was impossible for him to stay on with this obvious breech of effective policeforce,, based on political views

    2. Woke up America ! All Proud boys should be hanged in the streets for their treasonous coup, Whoever, punishment for treason owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and …

    1. Well civil wars aren’t quick and easy remember this is half the country. If you wanna fight really think about the costs. Maybe there is a way to come together if we try.

    1. There was nothing unlawful about the election. But things the democrats were doing at the counting locations were illegal. Those are the people who should be going to prison.

    2. Two words ….voter ID…. We have ID for everything but voter ID …. because Democrats don’t want it Proof there’s something more going on…Because they do get illegal votes in .. its very easy to check If someone’s legit or not if they have voter ID

  6. If you haven’t figured out by now, that Trump has been lying about everything, the entire time, then you need to go back to school.

    1. Woke up America ! All Proud boys should be hanged in the streets for their treasonous coup, Whoever, punishment for treason owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and …

    2. I love that name Orange Bin Laden. That’s exactly what he is. Describes him SO much better than President!
