U.S. Attorney Investigating Capitol 'Reconnaissance Tours' Ahead Of Pro-Trump Riot | Rachel Maddow
Time to arrest Trump and put him on an island so he can’t stir his cult anymore!
Epstein’s island?
You’re a fool.
Gitmo.
That’s the thing w ol Rumpy, no one deserves his presence.
@M t – Even Lucifer’s displeased at the thought of #45✳’s eventual arrival… 🤣
It would be nice for the truth to come out and all involved prosecuted and removed from office. Publicly recognized as traitor’s to our country.
@Michael Hernandez because mean tweets only upset your filthy kind
@Bork Bork Bork right, and if you are wrong? And it’s the demacrats arrested/executed….still orange man bad?
@B woodward wtf….ummm this is a lefty site, plz try to keep logic out of our safe space it’s unacceptable, stick to the narrative. jow is doing a great…job 🤤
And if found guilty in a court of law, they should receive the Maximum sentence under the law. Here is what our law says…”
Whoever, 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 shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States”. In the 1950’s the Rosenberg’s were executed for passing secrets to Russia. In my opinion, an attempted overthrow of the government by domestic terrorists of the United States is far worse.
Being a traitor to the country used to be punishable by death. Interesting President Lincoln predicted something like this happening.
So it’s not even Iran….where you easily take out key figures even if they don’t do you any harm. Isn’t it time that you start holding people severely to account domestically?
@blupheonix44 Yup, insurrection is no big deal in the US and good ol white boys and girls get to go home on bail.
@blupheonix44 what privilege? To attack the legislative branch of the federal government and walk away? Yeah it’s about time for cops to be stripped of their unions and qualified immunity.
I find it very interesting that folk think “taking out key figures” is a thing that doesn’t happen on US soil. Many who operate in the US are familiar of not only the giving end of being “taken out” but also the receiving end.
@Carmen T being west European, I am indeed not familiar with that
@blupheonix44 Imagine if those rights were treated the same way RepubliCONs treated immigrant’s basic human rights, or the way they lawlessly attacked the capitol. Their only hope of salvation comes from Dems not being monsters like them.
Shameful how those people are behaving and attaching the American Capital
Antifa blm or the maga folks? Gotta be specific
@sleepyjoe cheated ; trump maga folks . because trump asked them to
@Johann Rüstmann ok so dems fund antifa blm then call for violence against Trump and his supporters….also plz show me where Trump told them to storm the building
@Johann Rüstmann *sorry asked them to storm the building
@sleepyjoe cheated01/06/21
lets walk down to the capitol and fight :DJT
Trial by combat: Rudy Giuliani
Ted Cruz is already organizing another charter to Cancun. This one will be packed.
Fled Cruz haha
@jlo Wow, that’s unsettling, and yet somehow par for the course. A shifty investment house that caters to shifty clients run by a shifty banshee married to a shifty dolt.
Yeah, that checks out.
I think they have extradition from Mexico. Maybe they should go to Russia.
@Ric Ladouceur If the heat turns up, that’s where the lot of them will try to go since they’ve been on Bad Vlaad’s payroll for years now.
@Peter Lorimer I loved that too. I wonder what they played. Adios Amores seems appropriate.
The Republicans continue to lower their values to the point of jail time.
These are NOT Americans. These are the treasonous racist Confederate Evangelical MAGA/QAnon terrorists trying to attack America a 3rd time. They failed back in 1865, 6/Jan 2021 so now they will try again until we wise up and start arresting them as the traitors they are. If these Confederate Evangelicals want a Confederacy 2.0, let them have it so they can gather in 1 or 2 of their backward states. America will build a very tall wall around them (they like tall walls) to safeguard the country.
@Latroy Hawkins I can’t help what my mama named me. It was the 60s she was trying something different. Can you not see my picture. Clearly I am a woman of color
@Grihm Fayte not true in this instance
@Latroy Hawkins up yours
@gsmith1308 – *That* was the moniker “Latroy” was using last night…it’s changed its title since then. 🤔
Also everytime trump is not held accountable for his bad deeds he does something worse,,,,
@Truthfinder I still refer myself as a poor person, because I’m one of the few who actually fight for them. Equal opportunity regardless of whether they have criminal records or not, and also regardless of whether they grew up in the hood or the burbs. That’s literally how we fix the country.
@Justus Forrester It’s not exactly luck. You may not be a victim or whiner, but your point of view fits the bill. Unless someone is profoundly handicapped they can learn the information and skills required to make a good living and improve their lives. If it’s too easy, many people find no value in it. When we make up our minds, focused on a goal, and take whatever actions are required they will make progress. The harder it is earned the more we value it. Much of it comes down to attitude and determination. This is one reason why mentors are essential for underprivileged people.
@Justus Forrester which of these definitions describe you?
[po͝or, pôr]ADJECTIVE
I suggest you find a better word. How you define yourself is how you will experience your life. Choose ABUNDANCE, PROSPERITY, CONFIDENCE instead. Poor should never be someones identity. Good luck with that.
@Truthfinder yeah because they plow the sidewalk for people to walk 3 miles to the nearest library. If I was rich, I would put libraries in the hood all over, and free Wifi for all. And that’s why I’m not rich, because I help people too much.
We had a war on terror. If they want to take this seriously, declaring war on domestic terrorism would be a start.
It worked really well when we went in other countries and violated innocent people. It worked so well we should do it to ourselves. I never signed up for this, you don’t throw out 200+ years of constitutional protection because a small group did a bad thing over in DC.
That’s why the woman with the pink wool cap and bullhorn knew the layout of the building.
I still want to know who removed the congress people’s Panic buttons from their private Chambers.
The investigation has found a muddle that makes no sense to me. Something about moving offices. I want to see work orders and why no one was notified. Dig people dig!
The Capitol police, who else?
@Walter Machnicz Indeed Walter! Indeed! ‘Let Justice be done, or the heavens fall”!!
Your watching it- NBC!
That was part of the INTERACTIVE Tours given prior to the terrorist attack.
The best way to figure out if an attack is planned is to surveil Ron Johnson, Marjorie Qreene, Lauren Boebert, Mo Brooks, Josh Hawley, Ted Cruz, Paul Gosar, Madison Cawthorn, and Andy Briggs. These are the people that seem to know the attack would occur, gave tours the day before, tweeted information, or seemed overly sympathetic to the domestic terrorists.
They should already have been REMOVED
@Binova Gurung To be fair, there are so many likely suspects in Congress, it’s hard to remember them all at once!
@Serendipity Shop I agree. I think we will eventually find high ranking officials throughout our government played a role. What is telling is the S.A.R. Irving saying he was concerned with the “optics” and we know the “disgraced” ex-president was obsessed with optics.
Lin wood
@Emsley Wyatt But , he spewed the “they stole the election” BS which helped to incite the riot in the first place!!!
Joker Trump: the world is a mess. Dump’s life is now a mess.
Dump’s life has always been a mess.
Now he can be part of the mess. Life in prison sounds very appropriate!
Treat those murderous mob like domestic terrorists which is exactly what they are.
You’re one of #TravelinTed’s 🧦 accounts, aren’t ya, Bill…? 🤣
Street gangs are domestic terrorists I think they should be treated for exactly who they are, I would just round them up and dispose of.
@Bill Cruze no, attacking the capitol to overthrow the government is not the same as 95% of peaceful protests for changes to systemic racism in our country. Stop spreading your bigoted BS.
@Not Sure street gangs don’t try to overthrow the government as a political message, what do you think terrorism means exactly bigot?
Cfis that
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
oh good
They’re NOT Americans, Tim. Call them what they are.
Traitors.
Sorry to get all technical with you, Jay, but in order to be traitors they have to be Americans. You can only commit treason against that to which you owe an obligation of allegiance.
And the guy who RADICALIZED them, and INCITED them to INSURRECTION is being given aid and comfort from several American TRAITORS in the Republican party.
And he’s being given a platform to influence them further by the same.
Can we get some indictments please?
Too bad the stupid, unlawful repubs didn’t indite the their in chief…
@Kristine van Grow up
You don’t know what you’re talking about. Take a laxative.
I think those investigating all this are doing thorough research so they lock-tight cases. It will take time. Patience, I think.
I would not be surprize if Ted Cancun Cruz, QAnon Marjorie, Miss Lindsey, Josh Hawley, Ron Johnson and the rest of Trump’s enablers are involved.
Yup. Trump’s capital damagers are continuing what Al Qaeda wanted to do with the 4th plane/bomb that crashed in PA. E-book: ‘Right Wingers Duped’ sheds light.
They are
@Loyi Kyong Of course.
@Ken Albertsen Well said.
The trump supporters declared war against the United States of America when they attacked the Capital of the United States
– while proudly displaying Confederate flags, yet boasting of being “patriots.” Dangerous boneheads, i.e., Trump worshippers.
So blm and antifa declared war as well, interesting…you realize your people have rioted in dc since the maga march right?
sleepyjoe cheated BLM and Antifi didn’t attack tour government
@sleepyjoe cheated still haven’t tried to storm the Capitol. BLM never tried to storm the Capitol. Rioting is one thing, trying to overthrow the government is another. Also most riots happen because police instigate and escalate peaceful protests into riots so they have an excuse to use violence against them.
@Robert Nguyen I know…they attack granny’s and gang up on innocent people, they don’t have the sack to do wat we did
Anyone who plots to overthrow our Constitution is NOT a “citizen”. They LOSE their Right to be a citizen by their mere intent to overthrow our government. They should be EXILED.
More like throwing these terrorists away in a super max prison
Please.keep these people in your country or then them to a special report in Kuba that you just can’t get rid of due to emotional reasons.
That sounds fair, but it’s not how our laws work. A naturalized citizen can commit acts that can result in the loss of citizenship, but there are only four ways that a natural-born citizen can involuntarily lose citizenship:
1. serves in the armed forces of a foreign state engaged in hostilities with the United States
2. takes a policy level position in a foreign state
3. is convicted of treason
The first two don’t apply, and the third one wouldn’t apply until after the person was convicted.
@Real M I’m guessing if there is a next time. the only ones left of them will be the ones that made the correct decision to stay home. The republicans can be seen self-destructing at record pace.
Gfis that

oh good
Better yet….WHO RIPPED OUT THE PANIC BUTTONS….curious minds want to know!
Isn’t there surveilance everywhere there? And if there isn’t, why not? Oh, sure blame the janitor!
*Treason is a death-penalty offense. Like Trump says, we shouldn’t be “too nice” to these people.*
@Google User unfortunately they are too stupid to realize they are fighting FOR the ones doing the kicking.
LOCK THEM UP!
LOCK THEM UP!
LOCK THEM UP!
@Heather Melissa oh really, apparently you’ve never been treated like the help for working hard. I’m not with overthrowing the government, just better treatment of those who actually work and not sit at a desk.
@Google User I love my country, and the system of government we have that allows us to make changes without having to clash with bureaucrats. The fact that most Republicans don’t understand why Texas power grid went out is mind blowing to me.
@Larry Cleveland, RDN, LD, LMT unfortunately, it seems to have already begun
