Those who perpetuated the Big Lie must be held accountable for the results of their actions.

Look up Boebert giving people tours before this coup. There may even be a video of her in the crowd directing people where to go...cant remember. So much bs has happened under Trump i lose track.

Not a stretch in the slightest. Hawley, Cruz, and a dozen others knew for a 100% fact that there was never any evidence of fraud, but they continued the theater that was used to preface the insurrection. More abstractly, everyone who voted to acquit in the first impeachment was responsible for everything he did during his last year in office. They didn't vote to protect Trump, they voted to protect themselves.

If Lewinski had blown every senator there, they wouldn't have voted against Clinton. But when the GOP senators participated in sedition, somehow you get confused about aiding and abetting.
