Hugo starts a new thread every five minutes so it’s hard to keep up: where did they announce their intent to execute Congress? Facebook?

 

Ummmmm.....fucking EVERYWHERE?   Seriously, there are statements by these folks on Parler, Twitter, and umpteen other sites....then there are the recorded statements they were making that day.  And then, you know, the fucking guns and zip ties they brought along with them for the party.  This is literally the easiest police investigation in history.

1 -- here is the suspect saying he wants to try and execute Pelosi/Biden for treason.

2 -- here is the suspect breaching a police line and entering the capitol by force.

3 -- here is the zip ties and weapons the suspect brought with him.

That's about as easy as an investigation and prosecution get.

Holy shit.  Can't believe that was real.  This country is toast.  May as well just get the civil war started already.

Dude....it started a long time ago.  The only question is when the good guys finally decide to fight back.  The full weight of the state needs to come down on seditionists.  And the rest of we the people need to punish every person and enterprise that funds GOP wingnuts.  If a business contributes to Josh Hawley, out them, and do all you can to destroy their reputation and business.  Make association with and support of this terrorist organization as horrific as it would be if they supported Al Qaeda.  It's not any different any more.  In fact, it's worse.

I agree 100%, but politically, there are tons of "moderate" people who vote democrat (hence Joe Biden), who would be turned off by an aggressive response like that, and it is a political reality that must be considered. I want the democrats to be more progressive, but I'll take the most moderate democrats in office over anyone associated with today's gop. I want to see justice served severely here, but I understand if the response remains tepid.

Fuck that. The choices are the Dems, progressive or not, or actual sedition. If a voter still chooses sedition then fuck em. We can win without them.

He tried to have them killed. Is that not getting through some part of your head?

“Or for his cabinet to invoke the 25th amendment to remove him.” Your selective bolding of a cherry-picked segment of my argument doesn’t capture the full argument so isn’t really relevant, especially when you’re defending your predisposition to bitch about everything that Nancy Pelosi does. When I’m reading posts without paying attention to who’s posting, I can identify yours because I recognize the constant bitch-mode about Nancy Pelosi. The armchair quarterbacking gets to be a little tedious.

I don’t envy Pelosi her job, and I know that she knows a lot more about everything the job entails than you and I do. But I know the Republicans don’t hate her because they think she’s ineffective at it. And again, if they file article(s) of impeachment on Monday then that is ridiculously fast. This isn’t a tv show. This is real life. Patience, grasshopper. (And yes, I know I’m quoting a tv show but just grant me that poetic license.)

Did you not pay attention to the general election? Biden's performance was way short of what the polls predicted, and we were damn near close to another trump presidency from swing states. That tells me a lot of people told pollsters they'd vote for Biden then changed their minds. The only thing that happened late in the election cycle was "HUNTER BIDEN ARGGG" and "KAMALA IS A SOCIALIST LIKE VENEZUELA!!!" I think you give the electorate too much credit if you think trials for insurrection and sedition will move the needle towards democrats from this group of wishy washy low iq voters.

Those same voters have the attention spans of mosquitos.  2 years from now, there will be some other bullshit outrage of the day about Democrats, and they won't care at all about what happens in January/February 2021.  Nuremberg was wrapped up in less than a year.  No matter what Dems do now, by election day 2022, they'll be complaining about Kamala's outfits, Joe tousling some kid's hair, and Hunter getting a free latte at Starbucks.

Fuck them all. Fuck their views. Fuck their opinions. Fuck what they want. If the Democratic party had any balls, they would go for the throat. There is currently a gaping schism in the GOP. They are eating their own. Dems cannot afford to let them coalesce around a message and regain their strength. It needs to be destroyed as a viable party. Now. There needs to be DC statehood and Puerto Rico statehood bills on the desk on Day 1. There need to be multiple SCOTUS nominees in the first 100 days. They started the war, and Dems are under no obligation to consider appeals to mercy or tradition.

I think there's a general consensus among pollsters that Trump voters are hard to reach, don't answer polling, and are hard to model.  A lot of democrats are home, answering their phones, and fired up to talk to a pollster.  It's not so much shy Trump voters, as Trump voters are impossible to poll in any way that really captures them given how reliant the industry is on modelling.

I actually have a theory about this. I think Trump likes the disco music because hitting the New York clubs in the '70s was the happiest time of his life.

Twitter and Facebook are infuriating. There are tons of claims of, "The violence was ANTIFA" with videos showing one person pulling another person from a window.  Were there some bad actors in there?  Most likely, but the vast majority of that mob was Trump supporters.  These people are so stupid, I am not sure how they function.

And we don’t need those people to win anything. Especially with a new VRA. You don’t make policy decisions because stupid people can’t understand what’s happening. You make policy decisions that will help Americans. This scared to govern shit is so fucking tired and transparent. It’s all bullshit to prevent progressive policies from helping actual people.

OK.  I will grudgingly accept this point and apologize to you for the call-out. 

I will also pour myself a cocktail and consider the idea that you might be correct that we live in the kind of country where we have to be nice to the traitors who tried to overthrow the government so we don't upset 50 million idiots.

[Beantown Express 2.0 6,586]

I hate to point this out but has anyone watched Fox/OAN type of news the last 24 hours?  There are a 100 million American citizens getting their "news" from these and it is not based in reality.  I switched on Hannity last night for about the first 60 seconds of his show.  If anyone can find it and post it, it's actually enlightening about the kind of falsehoods and lies they are still telling their viewers.  Half the country is being told that this was ANTIFA, or some bad guys.  They are saying Trump had nothing to do with it (yes there is video showing he incited it but they don't show their viewers that).  Hannity went on about the media got a weak man like Biden elected and good luck to the country when all the powerful dictators around the world take advantage of a weak and frail man like Biden.  Its disgusting and frightening but until you figure out a way to stop the propaganda you can not win this cold civil war.

Lyrics

The moon is high up on a mountain
The lunatics have taken over the asylum
Waiting on the rapture

Singing, "We're here to keep your prices down
We'll feed you to the hounds
To the daily mail, to get up, together"

You made a pig's ear, you made a mistake
Paid off security and got through the gate
You got away with it but we lie in wait, eh
Eh, eh

Where's the truth what's the use
I'm hanging around lost and found
And when you're here innocent
Fat chance, no plan
No regard for human life

You'll keep time, you've no right
You're fast to lose, you will lose
You jumped the queue, you're back again

President for life, love of all
The flies in the sky, the beasts of the earth
The fish in the sea have lost command

Bill Cohen just put it differently.  With Trump still seated, a foreign adversary could pull some shit on an ally and get away.  They also could give Trump safe harbor (financially and otherwise) in exchange for not ordering a response.
