A few reminders of what Trump said in the lead up to Jan 6th
December 19th: “Big protest in D.C. on January 6th. Be there, will be wild!”
December 26th: “We will never give up. We will never concede.”
December 27th: “Just say the election was corrupt and leave the rest to me and the Republican congressmen.”
December 30th: “We’re going to fight like hell. If you don’t fight, you’re not going to have a country anymore.”
December 31st: “We’ve won this election. They just don’t want to admit it. We’ll see what happens on January 6th….The people are angry.”
Jan 3rd: “They’re not taking this White House. We’re going to fight like hell.”
Jan 4th: “If the Democrats take control, we’re not going to have a country anymore… You have to get your people to fight.”
Jan 5th: “Washington is being inundated with people who don’t want to see an election victory stolen. Our country has had enough, they won’t take it anymore!”
On Jan 6th itself Trump over roughly 70 minutes used the words “fight”, “fighting” or “fighters” more than 20 times.
TERRORISM EXPERT HERE: I’ve studied, analyzed, worked, write books and/or fought against all of the worst real terrorist groups in the world for over 4 decades.
This statement by Kristi Noem is delusional and dangerous. She should not be in a position of power.
Classifying all Americans who are against the fascist Trump regime as “terrorists” is ridiculous and literally textbook Fascism.
The same guy who told you COVID was a hoax just got his updated booster. You can’t make this up.
I'm glad Donald is still taking Dr. Fauci’s advice. Right, MAGAs?
Whether this girl was a citizen, a legal resident, or undocumented is irrelevant.
Whether she was perfectly law-abiding or accused of a crime is irrelevant.
A grown man kneeling on the neck of a 15-year-old girl (one who also wasn't resisting) is beyond the pale—an act indefensible under any circumstance.
Anyone who hasn’t lost their humanity knows this.
It’s so odd how the president and vice president aren’t obsessively tweeting and speaking about this right wing Charlie Kirk supporter, who murdered two teenage girls because they didn’t like Charlie Kirk. It’s almost as if they only want to politicize death.
Vincent Battiloro, 17, is charged with murdering two girls—Maria Niotis and Isabella Salas.
Note how I’m not blaming all conservatives for this or saying that all conservatives are violent because of this one individual’s horrific acts.
When you demonize and mistreat the immigrant, the poor, and the marginalized, I'm not interested in hearing about your religious beliefs.
You've already shown me what they are by how you're demonizing and mistreating the immigrant, the poor, and the marginalized.
Shout-out to all the Christians who spent the week defending letting people die in the ER because they don't have proper documentation then woke up this morning and go to church.
You're the real hypocrites!
I’m not a Muslim, nor a Jew but I am a human being. My thoughts are with those impacted by horrific events in Manchester today & my thoughts are with those in Gaza. I see nothing controversial in this. I don’t have to pick a side, I choose right over wrong, wherever I see it.
People forget that Trump first began lying about the 2020 election months BEFORE the election. Well before the election, he began saying “either I’ll win, or it’ll be stolen from me.” And he said that repeatedly before the election bcuz he was prepping his voters to accept the “stolen election” lie in case he lost. It worked. He lost, but his voters believed the lie and tried to overthrow the election.
He’s doing the same thing now with his use of the military. He’s prepping his voters to accept his “radical left violence” lie so that when he orders troops on our streets to fire at American citizens, they’ll understand & accept the need for it.
Yes, Donald Trump is a traitor to this country. He should be behind bars.
* Charlie Kirk gets killed. *
MAGA: THIS IS CIVIL WAR!!! 🤬
* Iraq veteran with American flags on his truck shoots up a church. *
MAGA: Come on guys, let's not be quick to judge.
When I didn't hear Vance and Kash Patel and the rest of the administration and their MAGA friends call the Michigan shooter Mexican/Muslim/trans/immigrant I realized straight away the alleged shooter would be a white Christian man.
And, hey presto:
Have you ever seen a MSNBC host speak like this? With this viciousness, this open desire for vengeance and ‘payback’?
There’s just no equivalent to the propaganda and open partisanship of Fox, to its authoritarian and power craziness.
There are no ‘both sides’ here.
While Stephen Miller claims that Democrats calling him a fascist constitutes incitement, there are hundreds of examples of Miller publicly calling Democrats fascists.
How do we know it’s fascism? Because when the President says he hates his enemies on the left, it’s a “joke.” But when a comedian says the President hates his enemies on the left, it’s a punishable offense.
