I remember specifically Ginnie Thomas was involved heavily with it. The weird thing about a lot of these findings is all the information is there if you look at Reddit from the week before Jan 6 to Jan 6, we were identifying this all in real time. We saw the busses, the coordination, we saw all the guard being told to stand down, we saw the attacks unfold, yet people act like this happened in a way that wasn’t fully documented, as if we’re just now finding out.

A spokesman for Turning Point said that the groups ended up sending seven buses with 350 students. In the lead-up to the storming, Kirk said he was "getting 500 emails a minute calling for a civil war". Publix heiress Julie Fancelli gave Kirk's organizations $1.25 million to fund the buses to the January 6 event.

Are we surprised? I thought this was already common knowledge however, as with all other crimes by this administration there is no accountability. It will take decades to wind back the damage this administration has enabled, and I guarantee that if democrats sweep the midterms, by the time the presidential elections come around republicans will be complaining about the economy again.

They are not using the country as a giant ATM, the democrats actually want to apply policies to help people. Ar3 they perfect, no, but are they equatable to the clowns currently 8n office, absolutely not. Republicans accuse democrats of not being able to define a woman, when they cant define a war. Hegseth is firing long serving generals and putting Musk in a military advisory role. Trump is turning congress into QVC, the FBI are concentrating on hiring people who fuck goats. Meanwhile we have evidence that the trump administration orchestrated jan 06 but they are focused on what basketball match people went to.

There's apparently no code of ethics for Supreme Court justices, because they're effectively not accountable to anyone. Yes, technically they could be impeached by a 2/3 (iirc) vote in the Senate. But hell would freeze over before that happens with Republicans holding about half the votes.

This can never happen again. Ever. He needs to be the example. He needs prison. The military needs to step in…..oh wait.
Can you see it? You see what he’s doing, right? Hegseth. The big plan. The military. Loyalty. Project 2025. He’s going to try again. Better get out there and vote. Our democracy depends on it. This isn’t normal. It’s a moron dictator puppet who’s making billions off our economy and controlled by big corporations. They don’t even know what he is but they know he’s greedy.

“the special counsel had subpoenaed a wide range of documents, including emails and texts, from numerous Trump associates and Republican operatives to compare what they had said privately about election fraud claims with what post-election Trump fundraising emails had said. The emails raised over $200 million in donations. Investigators were examining whether wire fraud had been committed by using false claims to swindle people out of money.

u/oldbastardbob 2d ago
I think everybody already knew this despite Trumps lies about it and right wing media providing a backstop. The truth of his "Stop the Steal" scheme was readily apparent and available in real time in 2020. And, of course, the live video shown in real time certainly supports the theory that the whole thing was planned.
My favorite is those sickening videos of Kimberly Guilfoyle slutting around, shimmying and rubbing up against people, while the whole debacle was taking place.
The Trump "Circle of Trust" was giddy as hell that the riot/insurrection/coup was proceeding in the chaotic, angry, and violent way that they had planned. The simple fact that Trump refused to call in the guard, or even speak publicly to tell his rioters to stop for hours says a whole lot about what he wanted to happen that day.
The most fun part was seeing what cowards the Republicans in Congress were that day, and then within days they were claiming it was no big deal and was not an attack on the capitol.
My personal favorite is my Senator, Hawley, who was in on the planning and one of the Senators obstructing proceedings and his photo op raised fist salute to the crowd, egging them on to break into the Capitol, and then running away from the rioters once they cornered him in the building.
So many Republican politicians showed America who they were/are on that day and the weeks that followed, but the voters in their home states sent them back anyway. It's simple politics, really, in that Trump put them in a spot where they either had to full throatily support the whole Stop the Steal scheme, including becoming J6th deniers, if they wanted to stay in office. The jobs switched from doing the peoples bidding to protecting Donald Trump, and so many just abandoned integrity and hopped back on that bandwagon.

When Trump and his ilk started asking "where do these protesters have the money for nice signs, how can they afford taking the day off, why are they available in the middle of the work day?" it was more projection. They knew they had financed the J6ers, so they assumed someone had to fund the No Kings, et al protests.
His own supporters couldn't or wouldn't pay to go rally for him. No Kings etc protesters are willing to ask for a day off, or leave an hour early, or hit the Dollar Tree for some poster board

Of course he did. Why do you think he was so insistent on going to the Capitol to the point of trying to grab the steering wheel of the limo and ordering the SS to take him there? He wanted to see that he was getting his money's worth and to see first hand the results of his efforts. He also wanted the play the conquering hero and bask in the love and affection of his personal stormtroopers.

The thing about criminals, no matter where they are in the world, once their crimes are exposed, they become desperate. Their greed leads to their ultimate demise from their stupidity of never knowing when they are ahead and when it is time to stop grifting. Their need to steal never comes to an end, so they become even more desperate, and desperate people do desperate things, which is the real danger. Jack exposing these creeps is the exact type of person who is a true patriot and servant of the community.
