    the whole world saw what trump and his supporters did on january 6th. trump incited them based on a lie and they proceeded to attack our nations capitol and beat the s*** out of hundreds of cops.

    and all you trumpers are saying they are innocent, treated unfairly, hostages being held in gulags. and at the same tiime yall claim to be the party of law and order and pro-police. WTF is wrong with yall?

    From a practical standpoint - a Judge is going to keep as many potential jurors in the pool as possible. Judge's usually will be satisfied if a potential juror states that they can be fair. I have seen some exceptions. At the state level I have seen Judge's for example take a juror alone into chambers and then come out and excuse the juror. I also once had a juror state that he hated black women and women in general - he was excused as well.

    However - in the majority of cases, if a juror tells the Judge that they can put aside their biases - they are allowed to remain on the jury UNLESS the Defendant or Plaintiff decide to use one of their own strikes. The number of strikes can vary depending on where the suit is held.

    A good attorney always tries to get the Court on their own to strike someone that they do not like - but it doesn't usually work.

    Usually there would be a side bar outside the jury where we would make our positions known to the judge, who then would decide.

    So @StupidMoniker is right from a practical standpoint - the court seldom strikes someone on their own if they claim they can put their biases aside and be fair - BUT sometimes there are exceptions and the attorneys can strike them as well if they want to use their strikes on a particular juror.

    Dude, they would back trump if he was caught shooting a person on main street, they could have video and pics and even audio and they would twist their logic to fit their narrative. trump has the sheep wrapped around his tiny fat little orange finger

    He is a crook, which why he picked Gaetz as his AG so he can break the law (Gaetz has since dropped out), his top military dude has sexual issues along with white supremacy and hell even the wrasslin lady in charge of Education is being investigated for kids being in danger of sex abuse.................he is surrounding himself with people just like him.............................CROOKS and PERVS. I cant wait to see who will replace Gaetz as trump couldnt find anyone to bend the knee on the first go round........................Tec Cruz, come on down, you can be the next cuckhold.......errrrrrrr, AG

    I would guess he intends to put Cruz on the Supreme Court.

    Yeah, a butt kissing hypocrite and liar like Cruz, who helped incite his coup would fit the type Trump would choose. He like guys with no balls to stand up and speak the truth when he lies and commits criminal acts.

    So are they right in saying the J6 trail was a sham as the jury was biased and thus they should all be pardoned?

    Good thing that despite those problems he was able to still act to protect congressional members and staff when insurrectionists stormed the building on Jan. 6th.

    It's a bit scary/sad to think you feel that way.

    The most armed civilian population in the world and how many shots were fired from these "insurrectionists"?

    They were let in for starters, and were un-armed. I would also bet a lot of them were instigators with no real political motive.

    People that whine about January 6th sound like the same people that whine about the Astros in 2017. Every congressional member could have sat there and nothing would have happened, it's sad that this is all the left has.

    No... in real life you are wrong. January 6th was bad. If you need to see video evidence again to see it with your own eyes I can send it to you. It was not peaceful, and Congress was definitely in danger.

    What also was in danger was the electoral vote tally which was in the house danger that some organizers are on video going after. Had that staffer not grabbed and secured those documents you literally would have stolen the election in terms of the physical representation of the Democratic process.

    So Democracy and the peaceful transfer of power.. all of that obviously isn't important to you and that's fine. That's on you. But don't sit here and gaslight us to think we are stupid enough to adopt your fantasy land worldview on Earth 2.

    At least treat us with a little tiny bit of respect.

    It's scary/sad that you haven't received all of the information. Some were let in to avoid violent conflict. Others forced their way in severely injuring law enforcement. Insurrectionists were armed. Some have been convicted of firearm possession, others carried clubs, batons, flagpoles, and other weapons.

    It is known from sworn testimony and communications between law enforcement as well as communication between the insurrectionists that they scouted at least 24 hours in advance where to break in, and the weakest spots for breaking into the building. They were chanting they were going to hang the Vice President of the United States. Law enforcement didn't open fire until after the mob had already bashed in the window and refused orders to stand down. The congressional staff was feet away from her as she broke through despite orders to stand back.

    I still cannot believe this happened in this country. in 2021. And everyone is like ok, anyways.

    Every single person there should be tried for treason.

    Treason has a very narrow legal definition in the United States. Legally it is not treason. However, they should be tried for every single law they broke.
