    Try peaceful protest next time without breaking and entering, and destroying things.

    So... by your definition all of the Floyd and/or BLM protests were peaceful protests because not all of them participated in looting and destroying things.

    There were also tons of Trump sympathizers among the police and national guards surrounding that.

    So hurling verbal abuse is not peaceful either.

    So let me get this straight... it is ok when some of the left crosses the line all summer and fall but not the right on one instance. One very isolated instance. Got it.

    I know you all hate Trump but this is what the media set precedent for. It was by their standards... the left's standards... a peaceful protest.

    That’s right, the millions of protesters this summer murdered many a cop in their attempts to capture and kill Congressmen to stop aConstitutionally mandated meeting to facilitate the transfer of power to a new President, Bingo!

    boy you are a dumb one. Name the last time any group of people broke into the Capitol, Nevermind for the specific purpose of disrupting the transfer of power. You are extra obtuse. Sorry, but if you attempt a coup or idiotic insurrection, you better succeed. Otherwise you’re screwed and going to jail.

    No it is by YOUR standards you little fascist dog.
    Because the guy you smh admire failed in his evil plan to overthrow the government and you can't accept it, it was nothing?
    Accept your failure.
    Your side lost like the pathetic traitors they are.

    Go now back in your cave and get lost.

    I’m not sure to whom this directed (due to ignore function) but comparing them to man’s best friend is an insult to dogs everywhere. May I suggest “roach” as a replacement?

    January 5 Meeting at Trump International Hotel Could Hold the Key to the January 6 Insurrection
    The night before the insurrection, Trump and nine advisers held an urgent meeting.
    [​IMG]
    Seth Abramson

    22 min ago [​IMG]
    Well after dark on January 5, 2021—just 15 hours before an insurrection against the United States government incited by the President of the United States—Nebraska Republican Charles W. Herbster, at the time the National Chairman of the Agriculture and Rural Advisory Committee for the Trump administration, attended a private meeting with the president himself at Trump International Hotel in Washington.

    In attendance at the intimate and only recently uncovered meeting, conducted “in the private residence of the President” at his D.C. hotel, were the following individuals:

    • Donald J. Trump, President of the United States

    • Donald Trump Jr., eldest son of the president

    • Eric Trump, second-eldest son of the president

    • Michael Flynn, former National Security Advisor to the president

    • Peter Navarro, Assistant to the President, Director of Trade and Manufacturing Policy, and National Defense Production Act Policy Coordinator

    • Corey Lewandowski, 2016 Trump campaign manager

    • David Bossie, 2016 Trump deputy campaign manager

    • Adam Piper, executive director of the Republican Attorneys General Association

    • Tommy Tuberville, United States senator from the State of Alabama
    In a Facebook post detailing the meeting—a post that looks forward with anger and trepidation to the upcoming January 6 certification of Joe Biden’s electoral victory—Herbster writes of the “battles and blood” that in the past have been required to “protect our way of life”, as well as his own decision “[not to] choose the easy path” but instead “fight” the “widespread voter fraud that happened on November 3.”

    Here’s the full Facebook post:

    [​IMG]

    Herbster’s Facebook feed confirms his high-level access to Trump and his family, as it features many pictures taken at Mar-a-Lago in the 30 days prior to the January 6 insurrection. These pictures feature Herbster alongside Vice President Mike Pence and his wife Karen Pence, Eric Trump and his wife Lara Trump, Donald Trump Jr. and his girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle, and longtime Trump friend and adviser Jeanine Pirro, whose ex-husband Albert Pirro Trump pardoned as the last official act of his presidency.

    {Photo key: (1) New Year’s Eve, taken when Herbster was “a special guest of Fox News celebrity Judge Jeanine Pirro and Eric and Lara Trump” at Mar-a-Lago; (2) January 2, taken during “a wonderful weekend in Palm Beach, Florida at the Mar-a-lago club with the entire Donald J. Trump family”; (3) December 20, taken “at the White House Christmas Party”; and (4) and (5), December 9, taken at an as-yet undetermined location and event.}

    This coup needs to stay at the top of the public conscience. Don't let the GOP sweep it under the rug. It's treason and should be treated as such.
