  1. Wow. You might want to take a break from giving yourself those disinfectant injections for awhile.....

  2. You posted that on a video investigation showing Republicans losing their minds and rioting on the US Capitol because their guy lost the election? You're funny.

  3. Eleven Trump supporter insurrectionists have been charged with seditious conspiracy. You happy now?: 18 U.S.C. § 2384: Seditious Conspiracy: "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,...., they shall each be fined or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both."

  5. Several people died at the Capitol riot, and many others were seriously injured.

  6. Trump himself told his supporters to go and march to the Capitol. Didn't you know?

  7. How could someone as stupid and immature and incompetent as Trump get 74 million votes? Maybe I should throw a riot because I can't believe it?
    5
  8. Isn't your party the one which is saying that a riot is "legitimate political discourse"?
    5
  9. Trump lies as naturally as he breathes. He just wasn't man enough or mature enough to admit that he lost to Biden.

  10. Ashli Babbitt was a rioter.

  11. Democracy is a wonderful thing. We should respect it and not whine and promote fake "election fraud" conspiracy theories and throw a riot on the US Capitol simply because our preferred candidate doesn't win.
    5
  12. You seem to be desperate to try to blame everyone except the one guy who incited the riot on the Capitol.

  13. It's not like most of these Trump supporter rioters were trying to keep their support for Trump a secret. Lots of them posted their support for Trump on social media such as Facebook or Twitter, boasted to friends and acquaintances about their support for Trump, or are even recognized active members of pro-Trump groups such as the Proud Boys.

  14. Barbara, did you know that mental health treatment is covered by ObamaCare?

  15. Looking forward to seeing your FBI mugshot. Remember to smile.

  16. - "Fact check: Trump repeats false claim that Pelosi rejected request for National Guard ahead of Jan. 6", USA Today. - "AP FACT CHECK: Trump distorts record on National Guard in DC", AP News. - "Fact Check: Did Trump Call in the National Guard After Rioters Stormed the Capitol?", Newsweek. - "No proof Trump requested 10,000 Guard troops for Jan. 6 or that Pelosi denied it", PolitiFact.

  17. It's a riot on the US Capitol.

  18.  @bobuxman69  "what about the riots that burned down citys in 2020" Republicans before Trump: "We are the party of Law and Order!" Republicans after Trump: "But, but, but,.....what about Antifa?"

  19. Go outside and scream at the sky. You'll feel better! 😄

  20. Oh, that's right. These people were all just "tourists" who were engaging in "legitimate political discourse" and are now unfairly being held as "political prisoners". 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

  21. You Trump supporters are even bigger whiners about losing an election than you all claimed that Democrats would be if Biden lost.
    5
  22. There will be a cold cell in a Federal penitentiary waiting for you.
    5
  23.  @timstingel9067  Well, the problem with your defense is that there is no factual evidence for your claims. On the other hand, we have hundreds of confirmed Trump supporters who have been identified and arrested with video evidence of them committing violent acts at the Capitol Riot.
    5
  24. Trump rioter giving his legal defense in front of a Federal judge in Federal court: "But, but, but,......what about BLM?".
    5
  25. You got the wrong lesson. Over 700 Trump supporter rioters have now been arrested for the Capitol Riot and Insurrection, with many of them losing their jobs, wrecking their careers, destroying their family relationships, and being shunned by their friends because they decided to listen to and act on the "stolen election" lies of an ex-president who wasn't man enough or mature enough to admit that he lost a certified US presidential election.
    5
  26. The Trump insurrection was an attempt to overturn and steal a certified US Presidential election. It was an attempt to destroy over 200 years of American Democracy. If you don't understand how serious of a crime that is, then there is no hope for you.
    5
  27. Babbitt was killed in the act of committing crimes. If she had survived, she would be facing multiple criminal charges right now.
    5
  28. Yeah, Trump supporters smashing windows and bashing doors and beating police officers with flagpoles with American flags on them looks a lot less chaotic if the footage isn't rolled around. Good point.
    5
  29. Oh, you mean that there is also the "alternative facts" way of Trump and his supporters.
    4
  30. Yeah, as the world's economies come out of COVID lockdowns and deal with supply-chain issues and getting people back to work, there are inflation spikes. We would still have these inflation spikes if Trump were president now. The only difference would be that he would be saying over and over and over again that it wasn't his fault.

  31. Trump and his rioting supporters tried to steal an election.
    4
  32. Trump tried to steal a certified US presidential election on January 6, 2021. Unforgivable.
    4
  33.  @sambo9584  It was an insurrection. Look up the word in the dictionary. Give it up. Even Fox News calls the Capitol Riot an "insurrection".

  34. Sometimes the truth hurts.

  35. Uh, huh.

  36. You can visit them in Federal prison - or maybe join them in Federal prison next time!
    4
  37. That's your response to a riot on the US Capitol by Trump and his supporters in their attempt to steal a certified US Presidential election?
    4
  38. Looks like they all went under the spell of the Donald Trump reality distortion field.
    4
  39. Trump - Federal Penitentiary 2024 !!!
    4
  40. Republican Party before Trump: "We are the Party of Law and Order!" Republican Party after Trump: "Hey, at least our riot wasn't as bad as Antifa's."
    4
  41. Pelosi never "blocked" the National Guard from deploying, and Trump never offered to deploy the National Guard for Pelosi. That's just yet another lie from Trump.
    4
  42. Trump's riot.
    4
  43.  @johnmiller7612  Better than the guy who tried to steal a certified US Presidential election by inciting an insurrection riot on the US Capitol. Try finding someone better to run for the Republican nomination next time than the most stupid, most immature, most corrupt billionaire in the country.

  44. Go complain to Fox News and ask them to make one about Portland. Doing a 6-month long investigation of a riot isn't cheap and the NYT just finished doing one.

  45. Ashli Babbitt's epitaph: "She Gave Her Life Not To Defend American Democracy, But To Try To Destroy It."
    4
  46. On 1/6/21, Trump and Trump supporters tried to steal a certified US Presidential election, and they failed.
    4
  47. You think that doing this investigation was inexpensive? You think that the NYT has the manpower and financial resources to do multiple in-depth investigation? Why don't you either write the NYT a million-dollar check to do additional video investigations, or go ask Fox News why they haven't done a quality investigative report on other riots like the NYT did with the Capitol Riot?
    4
  48. What's really funny is that these are the same people who were saying that Democrats were going to have a melt-down if their guy lost the election.
    4
  49. Trump: "Uhhh, Nasty Nancy? Hi, Donald Trump here. I just wanted to give you a quick call to tell you that I just enraged a large mob of my supporters and sent them down the street your way. They should be getting to the Capitol in a few minutes, OK, gotta run to my office to watch what happens on TV! Bye!".

  50. Number of times Trump used the word "peace" or "peacefully" or "peaceful" in his speech at the Capitol on 1/6/21: Once. Number of times Trump used the word "fight" or "fighting" in his speech at the Capitol on 1/6/21: Twenty (20). "
