Fox News' fake Christmas tree was set on fire, allegedly by mentally disturbed homeless man. They are calling it attack on America, attack on Christmas, claiming the tree is also a Hanukkah symbol (it's not), blaming Democrats, saying it's almost as bad as murder because what is difference between killing a fake tree and killing a person? Also, attack in fake tree much worse than January 6 insurrection so why isn't it being investigated?
 
Trump’s White House Passed Around a PowerPoint on How to End American Democracy
Former Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows handed over a trove of pre-Jan. 6 documentation. It’s damning stuff

The House Select Committee to Investigate the Jan. 6 Attack on the Capitol on Thursday released slides from a PowerPoint calling for former President Trump to declare a national security emergency in order to delay the certification of the results of the 2020 election. The presentation was referred to in an email provided to the committee by Mark Meadows, the former White House chief of staff who’s had a rough couple of weeks, to say the least.

The revelation is the latest piece of evidence that Trump and his inner circle, including his allies in Congress, were very actively and very aggressively trying to overturn the results of the election, which Trump lost handily.

The PowerPoint presentation, which spanned 38 pages and was titled “Election fraud, Foreign Interference & Options for 6 JAN,” was part of an email sent on Jan. 5, the day before the attack on the Capitol. The email pertained to a briefing that was to be provided “on the hill.” Hugo Lowell of The Guardiantweeted slides from the presentation on Thursday detailing a conspiracy theory-laden plan for Vice President Pence to install Republican electors in states “where fraud occurred,” and for Trump to declare a national emergency and for all electronic voting to be rendered invalid, citing foreign “control” of electronic voting systems.

Lock these fuckers up YESTERDAY. Not sure why everything is in bold lol



 
Accountability now for every fucking traitor involved in the Jan 6th attack on democracy. If I had joined a similar movement in the military I wouldn't be free and talking to the media right now...I'd be in jail...the DOJ can jail all these fuckers and let them wait there for their lawyers and trials.....no privilege in the world of crimes against the Capitol..the fact that Trump, Giuliani , Powell, Meadows, Clark, Flynn, Bannon and Stone and the rest of the traitors are free to make the talk show circuit is a crime in and of itself...

Hopefully Stacey Abrams doesn’t get the governor seat stolen from her again. If she could win Georgia maybe the new AG would prosecute him for that call

It's going to be one hell of an uphill battle for her to win. The Republicans are removing every black card they can from the deck.
 
It is beyond infuriating that this all is happening in front of our eyes and I have zero doubt nothing will happen. They flat out planned this, worked with people to help execute it, lied about it and blamed antifa, people DIED, and all these mutherfuckers are gonna get away with it. Makes me so mad. I know I’m not supposed to get angry anymore because I don’t have control over it but sorry, this is shameful. Voting for any of these people is absolutely shameful.

That's why the "but both sides....." type of arguments enrage me. One side is kind of weak, ineffective, and take too much money from corporations. The other side does that too, but also tried to overthrow American democracy in front of our eyes, and then act like it never happened. The sides are not the same. Not even close. Do you want a fascist dictatorship, or a kind of lame generic democracy? Those are your choices.

They also read texts from Brian Kilmeade and Sean Hannity. Everybody knew.

But of course the brainwashed viewers of Fox, Newsmax and One America News didn't hear any of this because those stations didn't bother to air the meeting of the House committee investigating the attack. Fox didn't even address the texts later in the day.

Total silence from Fox
It's crucial to note that Fox didn't air the 7pm ET hearing live or address the revelations about the texts later in the day. "Fox viewers are being shielded from the Fox hosts' urgent texts to Meadows," MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell commented.

Hannity actually gabbed with Meadows during the 9pm hour but "did not mention the texts at all," as The Daily Beast's Justin Baragona noted here. (Hannity hit back at Cheney, however, by saying "I love how Liz is now partnered with the people that called her father a war criminal, a murderer, and a crook. Pretty amazing!")

During the chat, Meadows acknowledged that he is about to be held in criminal contempt. But here's how Hannity opened the hour: "The hyperpartisan predetermined-outcome anti-Trump January 6 committee just voted 9 to 0 to hold Mark Meadows in contempt for refusing to comply with their orders." With that framing, why would any Fox viewer take any committee action seriously? Further, Hannity focused on Capitol security failures; blamed Democrats for those failures; and brought up the rioting in the wake of George Floyd's death. This is Fox's tried-and-true approach whenever faced with the awfulness of 1/6: Dodge or distort or deflect.

This shit is absolutely infuriating. And half of America completely fails to see it.
 
. This is Fox's tried-and-true approach whenever faced with the awfulness of 1/6: Dodge or distort or deflect.

Let me fix that.

. This is 98% of conservatives tried-and-true approach whenever faced with the awfulness of 1/6: Dodge or distort or deflect.
 
Mark Meadows Held in Contempt of Congress as Jan. 6 Probe Expands. How Long Can Trump Hold Out?

Question is, can he hold out until mid-terms. I think his only hope is for the GOP to win a majority and ease up the investigation. Sadly, it's looking like that is gonna happen.
 
Wasn’t it all over social media that people were going to the capitol on Jan. 6? It wasn’t exactly inside information, we were literally talking about it on here on the 5th. To suddenly suggest that every Republican who mentioned it before hand (most condemning it) is some kind of insider who was part of a plot to overthrow the government is just conspiracy nonsense. The people who got out of hand at the capitol that day are the ones liable, nobody else forced them to go. No person in power told them to go force their way into the capitol (no, Trump didn’t). This liberal elite hard-on for Trump has to stop sometime. He’s gone, you got your potato in office, time move on and quit LITERALLY giving Trump the same publicity that got him elected n the first place. How bad do you guys really want him in your day to day lives?

Considering that I started this thread on Dec 27th by posting a Trump tweet announcing the rally then yes, it was all over social media.

For someone who seems to love conspiracy theories I am surprised that you don't see how someone of power could decide to use an angry mob for their own means, then not admit it and try to cover it up. Maybe it's all bullshit but that's what investigations are for, so let them investigate and give them all the information to do so. Only guilty people want to seal white house records.

Oh don’t get me wrong it’s great, love a good conspiracy theory, lots of fun. Investigate away. The way people talk on here though you’d think the investigation was already over and all their crazy suspicions were proven correct. People are already high-fiving and slapping ass not realizing the game isn’t over and they aren’t winning.

People on here actually already said it's obvious what happened to everyone, there is evidence of it happening, and they are disappointed that they know it will not result in serious punishment.

They know they aren't winning, they are just amazed that such a fucked up event could happen in the US and go unpunished.
