Jan 6th, the day that will live forever in infamy. Horns retard man steals a desk. Several flags are waved, and there were reports of loud shouting, for upwards of 3 or 4 hours!

Our nation surely almost fell that dark day.

Is that what they are saying on OAN and Fox these days? We all know and saw the video. We all watched the hearings (well maybe you didnt). Try as you want, you cannot erase the clear unbridled facist truth about the Republican party that showed itself that day.

Words have meanings, it was not even remotely close to an "insurrection". What the taliban did in afghanistan when biden moronically pulled out suddenly was precisely the definition of an insurrection.

A bunch of larping dorks, often being *let in* to the capitol by the police, where congress resumed later that same day, is not even remotely close to satisfying that definition.

Were they stupid rubes on a mission doomed for failure? Yes. See how it's easy for me to condemn them, yet also understand what actually happened and not blow it up into something it wasn't for political maneuvering? You should be able to do the same thing for BLM rioters, which were far far more deadly to innocent people and property, but I absolutely guarantee you won't. The far left has a hard time winning hearts and minds because you are bereft of integrity or consistency.

Funny how you always try to point somewhere else instead of confronting the inconvenient facts which undermine your arguments. But but Afghanistan, but but Hillarys emails, but but Clinton Foundation... There is absolutely nothing which compares to Jan 6th and what it represents and what it shows about one party in this country and its facist and authoritarian tendencies.

Either own it, or condemn it. Make a choice

That 2T will go RIGHT back into the economy, because lower and middle class spend the majority of their income (unlike the rich). Money well spent.

The rich spend far more money than lower and middle class people, it's just a smaller percentage of their net worth. Just like they contribute far more in taxes, but because it's a smaller percentage people accuse the rich of not paying their "fair share". Apparently contributing the majority of tax revenue annually doesn't count as a fair share.

Woke dorks want fewer police while poor black communities who they pretend to care about want more. What a pickle!

Anyone claiming to defund the police is an idiot and needs to STFU. And Im a liberal telling you this.

We need police. The woke dont define our party.

Clearly too lazy to double check whether one's opinion is actually true (and didnt cite a source):

"4.1. Middle-income households contribute the most to consumption
Middle-income households contribute the most to the aggregate consumption in the economy. With almost two-thirds of total consumption, middle-income households are the income group that accounts for by far the highest share of consumption, ranging from 50% or below in the United States, Southern European and Latin American countries to 70% or above in Nordic countries and Slovakia. Besides its sheer size, the middle-income class has, in comparison to other income classes, both the resources and the propensity to consume. Middle incomes are the only income class whose share of spending is greater than both its share of income and its share of the population

And thats just the middle class not even combined with the lower class.

Conservatives stopped caring about facts a long time ago, they just parrot what they saw on yesterday's episode of Tucker.

That’s funny because while literally every Republican politician has denounced the Jan 6 riot (find one that voiced support for them I’ll wait), thst can’t be said for democrat politicians denouncing the BLM riots that did more $$ damage and killed more people

To name a few? Some of them went to visit the insurrectionists in jail. Id call that support not denunciation.

Matt Gaetz
Majorie Taylor Green
Josh Hawley
Louie Gomert
Ron Johnson
and anyone else who didnt support a bipartisan commission


and of course

Donald Trump

thst can’t be said for democrat politicians denouncing the BLM riots that did more $$ damage and killed more people

Yes it can be said, and it was said back in August 2020 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzVc-f5g6EY

Tucker is almost too perfect of a name for a Fox News host. I wonder if he changed it like actors do.
