A govenment of the people, by the people, for the people is not a two-party plutocracy where corporations and the uber-wealthy control the government and control the very narrative we hear every day. It's a war between personal freedom and liberty versus authoritarianism and tyranny.
asked specifically if
the speakers at the event --
including president Trump --
might face some sort
of investigation
for the things they said
leading up to the violence.
The U.S.
attorney said "All"..."
issues are being looked at.
We're examining all of this.
We're taking nothing
off the table."
He was pressed on it twice,
and both times,
he gave the same answer,
which certainly suggests
that they were considering
whether any of the speakers
had a legal jeopardy,
in terms of incitement to riot,
which is a charge.
-If you don't fight like hell, you're not gonna have
a country anymore. -DJT
-Officials sent a very
strong signal on Friday
that they do not intend
to pursue a case
against President Trump
or any of the speakers on stage, for comments made, for incendiary remarks
made before the violence began.
-We're going to the Capitol,
and we're going to try
and give our Republicans --
the weak ones,
because the strong ones
don't need any of our help --
we're going to try and give them
the kind of pride and boldness
that they need
to take back our country.
-One of the challenges
with charging anyone
with incitement to riot is that the First Amendment
case law on it is fairly protective
of the speaker,
because there's
a general understanding that people use rhetoric and
hyperbole in political speech,
and you shouldn't necessarily
view that as strictly literal.
So, there are some legal cases
and standards that would apply that would suggest it is hard
to bring such a charge.
And I think --
So, I think what you're seeing
is a kind of delicate
walk-back of the notion
that they are pursuing
the president in some fashion.
-We're in.
We're going in.
-One of the things
they described as,
they "need to go after, first, the alligators
closest to the boat,"
Is how one prosecutor put it.
And by that, they mean
the people
who did the most violence
inside the Capitol.
I think what's going
on right now is, the Justice Department
is doing two things at once.
They are scrambling to gather
as much evidence as possible as quickly as they can, to identify them,
build a case, and charge them.
And they announced a handful
of arrests again today, as they're doing that.
The other part, though --
and I think it's more sort of
the politics of chaos,
in a way --
is that they are trying to show that they are really on
top of the ball, now, because there are serious
questions about, how is it that, in one of the most well-guarded
and secure cities in the world,
such chaos reigned in such an important part
of the government?
It's interesting that,
the last days
of the Trump administration,
the Justice Department is doing
everything it can to show how seriously it is taking this,
and how aggressively
it's pursuing these.
But the reality is,
the bulk of this work,
in terms of prosecuting people,
is going to be handled
by the Biden administration.
GLORIA: Trump listening to Laura Branigan watching DC Capitol Protest Save America Rally?
Not all have sunk to the Bottom however...
Governor Schwarzenegger's Message Following this Week's Attack on the Capitol
On Friday, December 4th, 2020 there were two shootings by authorities.
In Ohio, Casey Goodson Jr. was shot three times in the back for wielding a Subway sandwich. He was only 23 years old.
In the West Bank, Ali Abu Aalya, a mere 15 year old child, was shot in the stomach by an Israeli soldier for protesting against Israeli injustices in the West Bank. He later died.
Mr. President you have not condemned these actions or this language, senators you have not condemned this language or these actions this has to stop we need you to step up and if you're going to take a position of leadership show some! This is elections this is the backbone of democracy and all of you who have not said a Damned word are complicit in this, it's too much yes that was Gabriel
Sterling an angry Gabriel Sterling the voting systems implementation manager for the state of Georgia.
He noted the death threats that had been launched at him as boss the secretary of state the secretary of state's wife even a 20-year-old tech worker well president Trump has now responded on Twitter of course president wrote rigged election show signatures and envelopes expose the massive voter fraud in Georgia what is the secretary of state and governor Brian Kemp afraid of they know what we'll find well it gets even worse a trump ally is now advocating that the president
impose martial law get rid of the Constitution and have a new election Hello everybody I'm David Shuster thanks for watching soon after president Trump won the 2016 election he named a former general Michael Flynn as his national security adviser Flynn as you may remember did not last very long he was caught lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russian operatives.
He pleaded guilty to criminal charges and he was recently pardoned by President Trump.
Ohio called, the we the people convention. They have taken out ads that Flynn has retweeted that urged president Trump to declare martial law and hold a new election the advertisements cite president Lincoln's suspension of habeas corpus
during the civil war the group says then as now a president with courage and determination is needed
to preserve the union that's right the union is threatened because of election fraud but even President Trump's attorney general William Barr
says there was no massive election fraud he has told the associated press that the FBI and the department of justice looked into claims of election
Well, Barr is now getting attacked by some Trump friends. Lou Dobbs the host on fox business news says that Barr is mentally ill roger stone who was
also convicted in the rush investigation says that Barr is blocking for the deep state and Jenna Ellis who is helping President Trump with communications says that Barr's statement is bizarre what's bizarre is that the United States actually elected Donald Trump, a man who spent several years surrounded by these clowns.
Well..... President Trump has made it clear, that this is all a political ploy that perhaps he's going to run for election in 2024 he has indicated to associates that he's not going to attend Joe Biden's
inauguration in January.
President Trump would not be the first president to take this step, three other presidents have also decided not to attend the inauguration of their successor, but here's what's so amazing!
The last president to take this action. Andrew Johnson, that's right, he was an authoritarian a racist who was impeached...
Yes, history repeats itself.
Face it Donnie, You Lost!!! As for Habeas Corpus, GW did away with it after 911, In case you folks have forgotten!
