    1. @uppgrayyed to further educate you on the first amendment in case you want to go that route:
      certain forms of speech are not protected by the First Amendment. This being content regulation, fighting words, obscenity, child pronography, libel and slander, crimes involve speech, threats, violation of copyright rules, conduct regulation, and Commercial speech.

      You’re welcome

    1. @TDBOMBA I got several dozen court cases and the words and investigations of multiple agencies that prove otherwise. You don’t actually have anything.

    2. @TDBOMBA “I can’t be a fool for questioning problems”, agreed.
      “and can’t be refuted because people deny and refuse to look at evidence”, ah! like the 64 court cases where claims of fraud were thrown out for lack of evidence – again I agree with you. It is not our fault you don’t look at the evidence of your own countries court system. Maybe you should have provided your “evidence” to the courts or were you not that convinced by it yourself?

    3. @From Scotland 64 cases majority dismissed off standing and didn’t allow evidence to be brought forth not to mention there was evidence being presented in the objections of the presidential certification that was stopped because of antifa insurgents and angry republicans 😂🤣🤡 clown shot stop falling for propaganda and sell outs

    4. @TDBOMBA WOW!!! Is there any part of your country’ you actually believe in? You are saying you do not believe in the Justice system or the political system, so what is it you are trying to save from the “antifa insurgents and angry republicans 😂🤣🤡 clown”? From what you have said, you have already lost and should find another country more to your beliefs.

    1. Don’t forget that there are millions of Americans who are disappointed that the coup didn’t work. They will support another attempt to overthrow the elected government. Any Republican who supports the Big Lie is guilty of treason

  1. THEY ALL KNEW AND DID NOTHING, NO WORSE then Nothing, THEY SUPPORTED AND ENABLED THIS CHAOS AND TERRORISM..FULL STOP TOTAL CO-Conspirators in this Chaos and Terrorism

    1. He thinks he’s still even going to have money. That’s cute. His problems haven’t begun yet. The GOP used him and the IRS will break him.

    2. or even banks, nobody will cllect but Ruskys, squeeze o’le spurs boi dey will, and you can take that to the bank. your right, he won’t even pay his own bills due @service date.

    3. @Richard Partin I doubt the IRS would do anything if you consider the ramifications of it, and trumps business are doing way better then they used too due to the presidency. He’s probably going to be set for the rest of his life.

  2. If they really want peace and unity…. they need to tell the truth to their followers….. Trump lost …..there was no steal

  3. The same Republicans screaming, “Stop the Steal” were perfectly OK with *Louis De Joy* stealing mail sorting machines to attempt voter fraud in their favour!

  4. It will be a perfect day when we no longer have to hear about Trump in his crimes against America and American people.

    1. @Will VM Here are a couple of real news flashes! True Trump supporters are peaceful and moral ! Another thing is that we do not condone behavior that would suggest violence! It’s not acceptable!

    2. @Troy Macgill Well? I’m waiting! Do you know anything about these people or did you just catch a couple names from the phony news channel and decide to prove to somebody that your smart?

    3. @Jerry Garcia Your probably right! If blm and antifa did that the media would call that a ” democratic” demonstration! That sounds less evil doesn’t it?

    4. @Tim Smith if you claim Trump won the election you are condoning violence. This is serious. If Biden really stole the election a popular uprising would be justified. The president in Uganda is stealing their election, placing his opponent under house arrest, completely controlling all news outlets and murdering voters. All that happened in America was that the votes were counted and certified. That’s not a steal, it’s an election in a normal democracy. Trump thinks he can’t lose because a lot of people come to his rallies and send him their money. That’s it. That’s all he’s got. And because of his stupid lying people get killed. If you are decent you should be running away from him as fast as you can.

  5. Where is the outrage to form a commission to INVESIGATE from the republicans.Oh, its not BENGHAZI AND HILARY. OR OBAMA.JUST A BUNCH OF HYPOCRITES.

  6. This is called politics.When you are a politician,you have to behave like your voters expect you to behave,it’s not hard to understand.Republicans are worst because their voters are the worst.

    1. I understand the motivation, I just don’t understand how they could commit treason when they knew they were telling a dangerous lie.

    1. @Fester Adams you have been lied to, your friends have been lied to and your state representatives need to be held accountable… If you’re too dumb to see this or choose to go along with the lie because it’s convenient for you, then you don’t deserve to be called a response American OR a real patriot for this country. You would rather ignore facts and help spread lies to continue your political party’s rule, that’s not what America is about and the sooner you learn that the more you’ll be able to accept what’s really happening.

  7. The second impeachment proves the validity of the first, which also proves that every Republican Senator involved (except Mit), failed their oaths.
    Remove them all.

  8. Republicans once claimed to be the “Law and Order” party. Now they have shown their true selves. They are spinless and as corrupt as Trump.

  9. I agree. They are clearly all guilty of this terror attack on the capital. They should be held accountable for the crime.

  10. Pro tip: It will be easier to remove those guilty of aiding the seditionists once they have been arrested and criminally charged. They have no DOJ memo protecting THEM!

  11. I love how they’re all trying to play dumb and wiggle their way out of trouble now that they’re being investigated. Don’t fall for it America.
