  1. Think of how crazy this is? They charging these guys..but for an entire summer they had domestic terrorists seized a few city blocked in Portland an people was murdered beat up robbed ect for months..not one person charged?!? Let that sink in..

    1. @Mike Pumps yes dear, you know everything, your internet conspiracy buddies told you all about it. Haahahahaha

  2. As a Marine veteran, I find it hard to understand why a grown man would call himself a “proud boy.”

    1. I’m not down with their cause or anything. The original name was meant to troll the LGBTQ people. Then they became some sort of militia type thing. But the original name was a joke that became something more than that

  3. Proud Boys: No one is going to recognize us behind those shades.

    Federal Police: Knock, knock! FBI! Stand back and by!

    1. They’re not hiding, nor are they guilty of anything. But you are, Cheering for Kangaroo courts, that’s going to be a problem for your future.

  4. “If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.”….what was CHAZ called again and how many were arrested, charged, tried and found guilty?

  5. Seems to me if you weren’t even
    There or thousands of miles away !
    But you were glad it happened you
    Could be charged with a crime .🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤣

    1. Maybe, but it helps if there is video evidence, email and phone records of the conspiracy, and confessions…

  6. #1 thing we need to do as taxpayers is take the money out of government and that is donations from the rich and lobbyists. The rich and lobbyists bought our congresspeople. Our congresspeople do the favors of the rich and lobbyists without question and without regard to the needs of wants of taxpayers. Either we eliminate the money in congress or we eliminate congress itself.

    1. @Sally you expect me to believe that the phrase packing the courts is so common that culture has changed its definition?
      Oh, wow you are really reaching there. Oh, well, atleast you’re entertaining.

    2. @Lucy Lu Biden adding two non partisan judges would counterbalance the three partisan judges trump nominated. Like you said, no problem as long as you are working within the system.

  7. Great, now prosecute the big fish who planned this whole thing from afar. Including the wife of Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas!

    1. @DeborahfollowsCornell you’re saying that Clarence Thomas is right???

    1. @Diane Eakes Sorry! I’m out of crayons. Ask a fellow Kult sheep to Google the charges.

  8. Stewart Rhodes has been rotting in jail for a few months now. Even a person that’s an apparent danger to his own eyesight eventually realizes there will be ” No Trump to the Rescue” and starts to sing like a jailbird. Same path for Tarrio.

    1. @Gary LeBlanc i guess…but ask yourself this what is the point of televised public hearngs when every news outlet would be fighting over covering criminal proceedings….it’s odd that Congress has to push to get coverage but can have news fighting among themselfs by simply filing for criminal proceedings….

    2. @Nic Moreno I think a whole lot of people want to see what the Committee has accomplished in the last year. I’m excited to see Jamie Raskin be the moderator. He teaches Constitutional law at Georgetown. He’s sharp.

    1. Oh he’s absolutely going to take a plea deal and rat on everything and everyone. He’ll get put into protective custody with all the other squealers.

    2. @SPG Hel is in protective custody until he cuts a plea deal or until his testimony is too redundant to matter and is no longer needed for the Committee to achieve their goal. After that he will be put in the general population with all the other inmates. Then it’s open season

    3. @Electric Gigolo I know can get nasty in there been a free man for 32yrs 5mo & some change…nothing like freedom brother ✊✌❤

  9. These people do the dirty work for their (R)epugnant sponsors of terrorism when things don’t go their way. They are the strong arm.

  10. when i was breaking the plexi glass at the capital I cut my hand. I’m going to sue Liz Cheney and Biden for that cuz it still hurts. And I’m too stupid to get a job so I can’t afford a band aid. Will one of you rich republicans loan me five bucks for some bandaids. Well six bucks I need some liquor also. It hurts so bad
