  1. Tourists? Yeah, those Republicans were barricading the Senate doors and cowering in fear from those “Tourists.” 😅

    1. Funny how Republican senators were getting ready to expose voting fraud when these people stormed the Capitol. If they were Trump supporters they only hurt him.

  2. The GOP reminds me of a famous Forest Gump quote… Mama always says, “stupid is as stupid does “!

    1. Forest gump would have not been able to getaway with high crime and covering it up by 18 U.S. Code § 1505 – Obstruction of proceedings before departments, agencies, and committees.Whoever, with intent to avoid, evade, prevent, or obstruct compliance, in whole or in part, with any civil investigative demand duly and properly made under the Antitrust Civil Process Act, willfully withholds, misrepresents, removes from any place, conceals, covers up, destroys, mutilates, alters, or by other means falsifies any documentary material, answers to written interrogatories, or oral testimony, which is the subject of such demand; or attempts to do so or solicits another to do so; or
      Whoever corruptly, or by threats or force, or by any threatening letter or communication influences, obstructs, or impedes or endeavors to influence, obstruct, or impede the due and proper administration of the law under which any pending proceeding is being had before any department or agency of the United States, or the due and proper exercise of the power of inquiry under which any inquiry or investigation is being had by either House, or any committee of either House or any joint committee of the Congress—
      Shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 5 years or, if the offense involves international or domestic terrorism (as defined in section 2331), imprisoned not more than 8 years, or both.

      (June 25, 1948, ch. 645, 62 Stat. 770; Pub. L. 87–664, § 6(a), Sept. 19, 1962, 76 Stat. 551; Pub. L. 91–452, title IX, § 903, Oct. 15, 1970, 84 Stat. 947; Pub.

L. 108–458, title VI, § 6703(a), Dec. 17, 2004, 118 Stat. 3766.)

    2. Their stupid by letting the former President Donald J Trump lead them around by the nose & they fell for the big lie too except Liz Cheney she now regrets voting for Trump

    3. I can see McCarthy fall flat on his face with his lies and hypocritical agenda !? The truth will always win out in the end !?, no matter how hard he tries to sweep it all under the carpet!?

    4. @Mal C McCarthy is afraid of Trump’s temper and disloyalty. He is a weak coward who should never hold a leadership position because, if challenged, he will cave in and not be a real leader. That is the definition of a follower, and in McCarthy’s case, an apt description.

  3. “by in large it was a peaceful protest”…with only 5 deaths….excrement on the floor, two stolen laptops and only ONE gallows erected.

  4. Amazing how ‘you know who’ has the ability to get others to take the fall and do his dirty work. He’s very evil…

  5. Do y’all think McCarthy wiggles his tail when someone says “who’s a good boy?” 🤔 or is that just something Lindsey does?

    1. @Buds&Vines that’s right Johnson, they came in just as the Republican senators were about to expose fraud and then they chickened out. All they did was hurt Trump. Hmmmm🤔

  6. It was live on jan 6 and photos was taken and videos …so much proof in what happened 📜📜

  7. I’m an American veteran and I saw this with my own eyes. What are these repubs so afraid of the truth. You shame this nation I served.

  8. GQP are really blocking an investigation into their own accountability
    and complicity in the planning execution of the 6th January
    insurrection.

  9. Matt Gaetz must have misunderstood when he was told people use Venmo to make minor purchases

  10. The man is a disgrace and a disgusting being. How he lives with himself is a puzzling question.

  11. Obedience and loyalty are only one-way street . They know the risk but what choice. Weak knees can’t hold them stand up straight ..

  12. how many words can you use to describe the reasoning of these politicians. i haven’t got any. i’m speechless.
