    So the trump administration is fully admitting that the insurrection attempting to block the certification of the Presidential election 2021 on Jan 6 was open rebellion?

      Holly shit. I hadn’t seen that last image you posted before. I didn’t realize the Jan 6 insurrectionist brought flexcuffs. That is quite disturbing. Who the fuck were they planing to kidnap or take hostage with those flexcuffs?

      I know this is sarcasm but, sadly, they don’t. I have talked to a few of them. Some either say it is patriot8c and others said it didn’t happen.

        others said it didn’t happen.

        Who is it they acknowledge trump pardoned when he got into office? If it didn’t happen, then there as no one to pardon. Yet trump came out and gleefully pardoned the lot of them. If it was “antifa” that did it, why did trump pardon antifa?

        Keep in mind I’m not questioning you on this but them, and I know the mind of a MAGAt is finely tuned to support cognitive dissonance.

      They admit no such thing.

      “Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.” - Frank Wilhoit (not the political scientist who passed away in 2010, a younger one who is alive still).
