  1. Fox “News”, Cruz, Hawley, McCarthy all as responsible as Trump, QAnon and the White Supremacists for this terrorist attack on our country.

    1. All_ of those men you mention are insane’! And evil men trying to make trouble that should all go to jail !!!! Now!!!!!

    2. Your fun-sized gleam of sarcastic sunshine has arrived to wake you up.

    3. FOX News and all affiliates is owned by Trumps partner, Rupert Murdock…….and thats very old news……..the discrediting of all other media outlets was 2-fold. More money, and dis-information

  2. 11 months ago, pre covid, pre capitol attack, “You may be asking, how much damage can he really do in the next several months until the election? A lot. A lot of damage,” Schiff said. “This is why, if you find him guilty, you must find that he should be removed. Because right matters. Because right matters and truth matters. Otherwise we are lost.” – Adam Schiff

    1. Adam Schiff was so spot. Senate Republicans and the president voted on no witnesses for the Impeachment trial. Why? Answer: Because they knew and Trump that his staff would have to comply with congressional court ordered subpoenas Trump insisted they ignore. See how complacent we’ve become with justice for the truth !

    2. @Frances Horwitz you are a fool. Three of the deaths where health related and the other,a woman was shot by a guard. Research much

  3. It shouldn’t matter when he committed a crime, only that he committed a crime (Insurrection and attempted coup). No one should be above the law, especially those tasked to protect and execute the laws.

    1. Sometimes they have to ask the “obvious to anyone with sense and a brain” questions, so that the dumbasses stand some chance of understanding

  4. During the campaign they were pretending that they love our country and that they respect the flag! The way they used that flag at the riots🙄

    1. @The Insane Shecklador well if you remember during the past year when there were peaceful protests during which cities some how were looting themselves and burning down city blocks by themselves…Trump tried to take action and the media and leaders of the states that were participating in the peaceful riots disallowed him from calling on the guard, telling him that they were exercising their constitutional rights and should not be censored. Meanwhile businesses were burned,looted and people and police were attacked, some even died and when it was all said and done he was made to be the villain…power hungry overstepping his boundaries to demonize people who had every right to demonstrate, so in the atmosphere that they created he is damned if he does and damned if he doesn’t . so my point is no one can stand up and fight for anything when the media and the talking heads are constantly changing the narrative when it suits them and you all are so blind to let yourselves be manipulated and tossed about without thinking anymore about what the truth really is. We have let a bunch of rich people with agendas against the American people and our country and Constitution who rob us and enslave us to their power grabbing, backstabbing politics and we sit and fight each other rather than uniting ourselves against the corruption in the offices of elected officials who are supposed to be “by the people and for the people “and they should be serving us. So unless Americans WAKE up and realize that the Constitution is for OUR protection – “the common people ” against governmental tyranny and start demanding they do our bidding and stop using the Constitution to protect themselves while systematically destroying our country and wake up to the fact that the is news and media is run and supported by the very individuals who wish to take this country to it’s knees and are behind the corruption that Washington is so unabashedly involved in. Lining their pockets with wealth that is comparable to the 30 pieces of silver for the betrayal of this country. And by country….let me make this perfectly clear….YOU AND ME AND EVERY OTHER AMERICAN AND ALL THAT WE STAND FOR AND TO OUR FOREFATHERS WHO LIVED AND DIED FOR OUR FREEDOM. So all you need to take the blinders off and start seeing things clearly before it is too late

    2. @STARZSHINE614 Learn to use the enter key, edit your post with paragraphs and then I’ll read your rant.

    3. @OEF Patriot what select few people you are talking about? It does not mean that those carrying US flag are patriots.

    4. @BostonBruins 88 I think you’re forgetting a few facts… that he reinforced the inflammatory claims that the elections were stolen which has spurred much of the chaos. Also telling them that “we love you” and “you’re very special”. Trump never condemned their actions. Did you chose to ignore all this?

    1. Totally agreed this GOP’s only cares themselves and politics once they got peoples votes, they forget to serve the voters that put them in office, sadly. 😂

    1. @Sheryl St. Germain If only some like minded Republicans had BALLS to walk up to the WH and say “sir its time to go because we will vote to impeach you and convict in the senate.” This could be their Watergate moment in history 2021 !

    2. @Sheryl St. Germain Afraid? More like holding him accountable and showing the world this will go unpunished.

  5. It’s like watching a big reality show….. Just glad it’s not featuring my Country. By the way those Republicans are bad actors.

    1. @Just Another Nobody That is written in history. All “empires” fall, and often they first fall into decadence and inner division. Everything is a matter of time. That is why you are right.

    2. And you should feel more pride than choosing the name “just another nobody”. You are what you choose to be. Maybe concider changing it…. 😉

  6. Gotta get this done now, while it’s fresh. Those Republican’s that sit back and down play it are the same ones with blood on their hands already from what’s happened. Do they really think Trumps going to change?

  7. Mccabe was cut-off a day before his retirement! He had to fight for his pension. Do unto you, As you have done unto others.

    1. That nonsense. If you listen to his rally speech, you would hear he specifically asked supporters to march and protest peacefully. Those are not words of a insurrectionist. He already said multiple times he condemns those criminals who stormed the Capitol (including the Antifa members posing as Trump supporter). Of course, those with fingers in their ears are not going to hear anything.

  8. EVEN AFTER ALL THIS, ALL THESE SCARED SENATORS REFUSE TO USE THE CAPITOL FOR THE PURPOSE IN WHICH IT HAS BEEN BUILT…..TO DO THIER JOB!!

    1. @Fathom Darkness tell us what illusions are you talking about.. all we have seen for 4 years is how the losers cry about what the winner can do and how they try to obstruct our prez.. as they make up scams and fake crimes

    2. @S R we need to investigate quid pro quo joe and impeach him for all the things the dems corrupt party has done.. fare game..

    3. @S R obstruction becomes a set up crime when we find out that the FBI lied to the courts and the FBI lawyer forged DOC..means they was trying to set folks up on lie charges.. a lie to their lies.. what a scam

    4. @jeff mcgowan You do know there doesnt have to be a crime to Impeach right? That may be your problem with understanding the charges.
      From two Conservative Groups. Do you believe them? No crime is necessary to Impeach.
      ▪︎American Enterprise Institute – Conservative think tank
      “The key to unlocking that understanding in the case of the presidency is that the office is one of powers whose ends and limits are fixed by a specific set of duties. High crimes and misdemeanors are not limited to actual crimes but extend to an abuse or violation of the public trust in carrying out those duties.”

      ▪︎No crime is needed to Impeach. This is Senior Fellow of the Heritage Foundation. Do you believe him?

      Definition from 1828 Websters Dictionary and Blackstones Law about 1765.
      MISDEME’ANOR, noun Ill behavior; evil conduct; fault; mismanagement.
      1. In law, an offense of a less atrocious nature than a crime. Crimes and misdemeanors are mere synonymous terms; but in common usage, the word crime is made to denote offenses of a deeper and more atrocious dye, while small faults and omissions of less consequence are comprised under the gentler name of misdemeanors.

      About ‘High Crimes and Misdemeanors’
      The constitutional standard for impeachment is different from what’s at play in a regular criminal trial.

    5. @S R so your saying they can impeach a PREZ for not combing his hair..lol..see the scams get dumber and dumber

  9. Whether it’s nine days or one day you need to get rid of him as soon as you can and uphold the law in which no one is above, come on government grow some balls and do what you have to do that’s right,

  10. I have yet to hear Giuliani suggest “trial by electric chair”.
    Is he afraid that he and Trump might fail the test?

    1. Truly. L’chaim my Hebrew name is Jacova. It’s the female form of Jacob. I was born March 11…in Bethlehem. 5 decades ago.

    2. Dear RED ALERT.
      I LIKE YOUR IDEA …. HOW MANY TRAITORS CAN WE GET TO TRY IT FIRST. THEY WERE DUMB ENOUGH TO FOLLOW TRUMP AND GIULIANI …..

  11. Words such as “courage” “integrity” “service to country” “compassion” “good” are all words fitting of democrats serving! Shame it can’t be said of any of the current “serving” republicans!

    1. What about the purposeful incendiary words used by Andrea Mitchell and Adam Schiff. “The president lit the fuse which exploded on Wednesday at the Capital.” That is saying he designated a bomb and this is what the Left does in hypnotic suggestion. The Far Left always controls your speech.
