    That simple audit of paper ballot was done. The vote counted THREE times in Georgia. It seems what those who are questioning the validity of the election for some strange reason are ALL MAGA. All those people who actually believed the big lie. Not a shred of evidence of massive fraud, not single accusation has borne ANY fruit, but for some reason the facts aren't good enough for Trumpists

    Hell they don't even know how all that election technology and infrastructure processes and check and balances work. And what the hell happened to the army of election watchers? Nothing but bullshit is what.

    I doubt a president so butt hurt that he lost bigly will decide to lie his far butt off and attempt to overturn a valid election, so I suggest that the Maga Mob take that cold rage at being gullible idiots, save it up until the hot months and put it to good use cooling down their beer. ]

    If he's convicted, Trump can be barred from running for federal office. That's why he should be impeached and convicted.
    IOW, you don't know how our government works.

    Cowboys for Trump leader Griffin ordered detained in riot case (usatoday.com)
    Cowboys for Trump founder Couy Griffin who is also a New Mexico county commissioner for Otero County, New Mexico is awaiting trial and held without bail and not even a chance for it and I for one doesn't think Griffin should be out on bail at all. If he's found Guilty, He could spend 10 years in prison. Griffin is one of Trump's loyalists that should be locked up.

    If Trump is guilty, He should be locked with his cowbohy friend from New Mexico as well.

    removal from office and potentially being barred from holding federal office are the only two remedies under Article I, Section 3, Clause 7 and trump holds no office.

    Yes, that is exactly what he said. If you have the facts on your side argue the facts, if you have the law on your side argue the law, if you don't have either shout and pound the table and if that fails break out the emojis.

    The Orange Oaf said a lot of things, most of it a version of his Big Lie that the election was "stolen." That he said briefly the protests should be peaceful is largely irrelevant.

    It was a good thing the majority of the voters voted Binden in and Trump out.

    Yes, for bad think!

    While the Fake News media incessantly focus on Marjorie Taylor Greene, a freshman backbencher with no real role in the Republican Party at all, far more insidious figures continue to prance around at the upper levels of influence without an eye being batted.

    Your link claims that the person trying to gain entrance to the room in which she was hiding (with others) was actually a member of the Capitol Police and that she feared the Police as much as she did the insurrectionists. Quite possible. While the majority of the Capitol Police did their job and fought those trying to break-in, there are videos of a few helping the insurrectionists. She was probably first evacuated from the Capitol to the Cannon Office Building. But, the evacuees had no knowledge of who was a friend and who was a foe.

    As for Cruz remark...let's wait for the investigation results. I suspect she was exaggerating. But, on the other hand...well...the break-in occurred right after his motion failed, right?

    Greene is trying to be another Donald Trump or picking up where he left off.

    Fake News. Do something about one of your nuts then talk to us about one of ours.

    HARSHING THE NARRARIVE: AOC Wasn’t Even in the Capitol Building During Her ‘Near Death’ Experience. She claimed "she nearly died" in the Capitol breach.

    [​IMG]

    Her video story, that she narrated claiming she was about to be assassinated by rioters in her office, has been viewed over 6 million times.

    Fake Newsweek:
    She elaborated on her lies with the following claims: AOC said in her Fake News Instagram drama earlier that the person who came to her office was a Capitol Police officer. She denigrated the officer who came to help, claiming he “didn’t feel right” and that he was looking at her “in all of this anger and hostility.” She embellished by claiming her staffer wondered if he would have to fight the officer and suggested that he might put them in a “vulnerable situation.”

    A major problem: AOC wasn’t even in the Capitol building where all the action was going down. If she was in her office, she was in the Cannon Building which is nearby, but a different building.

    According to Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), who has an office in the same hall as AOC, two doors away, there were never any rioters in their hall so there was never any physical danger from rioters coming in at any point. AOC is a deranged liar, who tells fibs, slandered the mythical officer she created in her lies, and then she claimed that Ted Cruz tried to kill her.

    So take care of one of your nutburgers who is a "thought" leader on the Left, and then get back to us on this just elected backbencher, Greene.

    Nonsense. She was in the Capitol when the House adjourned and the building was evacuated. She went back to her office at the Cannon House building, which had already been evacuated by Capitol Police. Some members chose NOT to evacuate and barricaded themselves in their offices. Entirely possible a Capitol policeman was checking offices leading her to fleeing to Porter's office. While the majority of Capitol police did their duty, apparently some did not and may have actually helped the insurrectionists. How was she able to know who was who?

    BREAKING NEWS:

    Liz Cheney survives attempt by some Republican House members to remove her from her leadership role, for her voting in favor of Trump's impeachment. The result of the anonymous, caucus vote was 61 in favor of removing Cheney, 145 against.

    While this post is not strictly about Trump's impeachment proceeding, I thought it was significantly tangential, since I don't want to start a new thread, just to pass along this news.

    Sure...and it may even relate to both the thread and your post. Are we approaching the Republican Party's "Night of the Long Knives?" That was early in Nazi Germany rule. The Brown Shirts had helped build the Party, but it was largely a group of misfits. Hitler was becoming increasingly "main-stream" and accomplished a coalition with the German Conservative Party. The combination gave Hitler the majority and the Chacellorship, but caused unrest with the misfits who had supported him during the earlier Party years. He had to make a choice...remain in power or give in to the "people who had brought him to the dance." He chose power and during the "Night of the Long Knifes" murdered the Brown Shirt leadership and destroyed his former base.

    He believes the election was stolen, I think he's wrong but he's entitled to his beliefs, believing that is not a lie, look at all those who thought Gore beat Bush or refused to accept that Trump beat Hilary? "Not my president", remember? Even suggesting those casting the electoral college votes refuse to do so for Trump?

    That he said the protests should be peaceful is largely irrelevant? The whole point is that he is being accused of violent insurrection?

    I doubt it. His lies are too carefully constructed.
    He is, but he isn't necessarily entitled to act on them.
    I think he's lying.
    Whataboutism Alert!
    He said the election was stolen scores of times for every suggestion protests should be peaceful.

    I refuse to watch ANYTHING from the MSM ... CNN, NBC, MSNBC, ABC, FOX ... ANY of them. Nothing on them but communist style propaganda, if they claim something is true, it is false.
