The real reason Republicans want to sabotage the investigation into Jan. 6

[Into the Night]

Fuck off. Don't do this shit. Last time.

Argument of the Stick fallacy.

It is very likely that some Trumpy legislators were involved with the insurrectionists. The investigation will probably air phone calls and emails between some reds and the rioters. They will also show the speeches that rightys made during the Trump rally. Those will be very damning. The communications between insurrectionist leaders and Trump's people setting up the riots will also be aired.
That is why Mccarthy has been fighting it.
There will be videos of the insurrectionists beating on cops and busting up the capital. You cannot make that look good.

Antifa and BLM were beating up on cops. Antifa and BLM were attacking people. Antifa and BLM were smashing windows.

Hitler was truly disgusting.

Today's GOP is on a lower level than that.

Keep in mind that the GOP is doing MUCH more damage to America than Hitler ever managed.

Ah, the usual comparison of conservatives with Hitler. How tiresome.

Nice rhetoric. Fact is, the GOP REFUSED to form a bipartisan group to investigate. So, cut the goddam bullshit.

Why should the GOP participate in political persecution?

 

[Into the Night]

GOP could have had a bipartisan investigation. They refused. Quit lying.

There is nothing to investigate.

Many of the Jan. 6 rioters have stated in their court pleadings that they stormed the Capitol believing they were acting on behalf of, or even at the behest of, then-President Donald Trump. The protection of our democracy demands that we comprehensively investigate what drove Americans to riot and violently assault Capitol Police, Metropolitan Police and other law enforcement officers to access the inner sanctum of Congress and private offices of top congressional leaders, including the speaker of the House.

There is no democracy. Democracies have no constitution. You want an oligarchy. It also does not have a constitution.

New report tries to answer what went wrong during Seattle Police’s response to 2020 Black Lives Matter protests — and what to do about it

Future Seattle protests could meet a larger, more technologically prepared police force with new directives including encouraging certain officers to speak their minds — if what the cops have to say doesn’t further inflame tensions.

The first report has been released from the city’s official review of public safety implications from last summer’s Black Lives Matter protests and the Seattle Police Department’s flawed response to the unrest.

The recommendations from the panel of SPD officials and community representatives convened for the effort recommends a major seachange for SPD’s strategy for policing protests to “focus more explicitly and comprehensively on the facilitation of peaceful assembly and ensuring the safety of protestors.”

“The focus and mindset of SPD officers deployed to assist in crowd events should move away from ‘crowd management,’ ‘crowd control,’ and ‘law enforcement’ to ‘facilitation of speech’ and ‘crowd protection and safety,'” the Office of Inspector General for Public Safety’s “Sentinel Event Review of Police Response to 2020 Protests in Seattle” report reads..

.
Without clear guidance from SPD leadership on why these protests were different, and knowing they were likely being recorded by hundreds of cell phones at all times during the protests, officers overwhelmingly chose to follow the existing policy of content neutrality rather than share their feelings of support for the protesters’ activities,” the report reads. “The Panel’s judgment was that in these early days of the protests, many in the crowd seemed to interpret the officers’ silence as an alignment with, or at least a refusal to refute, the police brutality that was the source of the protest. As a result, the silence of officers likely escalated tensions overall.”

Meanwhile 250 cops are gone since Jan 2020, and word is that a good 1/3 intend to leave.



Bye Bye Seattle, you were pretty cool once.

Are you always drunk or just freaking retarded?!

He's right.

You can smell the panic in their words. The RepubliQans are scared shitless of the Capitol investigation going forward. And the more they protest, the guiltier they look.

They must've done some REALLY bad shit. Methinks Pelosi and the Dems are chomping at the bit because they know she holds the winning hand.

This is gonna be fun. The RepubliQans have never looked weaker.

Persecution is not an investigation.

 

[Into the Night]

The problem you liars have is you think everyone is equally deluded.

Just Pelosi...and you....and other Democrats.

Republicans are supporting beating on cops:

"Fanone voluntarily rushed to the Capitol with his partner when he heard about the attacks. As a result of his bravery that day, he suffered a traumatic brain injury and a heart attack. In a video that has now been shared widely, Hodges can be seen being crushed by the mob as he and his fellow officers sought to defend a narrow hallway leading to a Capitol entrance. "--Thompson

Antifa, dude.

"I had hoped that such an investigation would be carried out by an independent commission composed of national security experts, like the panel created by Congress after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. However, once the House Republican leadership rejected — and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell filibustered — bipartisan legislation to establish such a commission, we in the House believed we had no choice but to establish a select committee. In a recent poll, 72 percent of Americans agree there is more we must learn about that day."

You won't respond to these facts, you pathetic coward.

The 9/11 panel was completely useless. This panel is political persecution.

Fake News.
Antifa and BLM were attacking police.

 

[Into the Night]

Damn right. You are a traitor to the United States. Not an insult. You disgust me.

Supporting the Constitution of the United States isn't treason, dumbass.

 

[Into the Night]

Never in my life would I imagine conservatives supporting the violent overthrow of our government.

Never imagined conservatives would support murdering cops and beating on them.

Democrats.

 

[Into the Night]

Treason. Damn right it is.

Discarding the Constitution of the United States like the Democrats do is treason.

 

[Into the Night]

Serious question: Did you graduate from high school?

...and back to the insults.

 

[Into the Night]

I find your stupidity offensive.

...and back to the insults.

 

[Into the Night]

Then why are you floundering in the use of English grammar?

He isn't.

 

[Into the Night]

Remind me just exactly who burned and looted cities and tried to burn an occupied Federal Court Ouse while blocking th e Exits in an attempt to murder those inside. Who was that???? On yeah the Left. You have no business pointing fingers until you clean up your own mess.

Antifa and BLM were attacking cops and people on Jan 6th as well. It was Antifa and BLM that were smashing windows.
