What's Going On?

Upon 'reassessing' maybe nothing really happened. It was just a picnic gone bad ...

... or an execution?
Paul Gosar (R-FL) “Who executed Ashli Babbitt? The truth is being censored and covered up. As a result, the DOJ is harassing peaceful patriots across the country. The FBI is fishing through the homes of veterans and citizens with no criminal record and restricting the liberties of individuals that have never been accused of a crime. The government even enlisted Americans to turn in their own neighbors.”

• Getting informants to turn on criminals sounds like a reasonable law enforcement tactic. Republicans are against it now? They are also against search warrants for citizens with no criminal record. I can't wait to see how that works. You can't be searched until you have a criminal record.

... or Biden supporters run amok?
Ralph Norman (R-SC) “I don’t know who did the poll to say they were Trump supporters,”

• I see how he could be confused. With all of the MAGA flags flying, you really overlook Biden's supporters embedded there.

Nah. It's too early according to Sen Blunt (R-MO): https://www.newsmax.com/headline/commission-capitol-riots-blunt/2021/05/23/id/1022433/

The only cure for a lack of intrest in Trumpistas for the Jan 6th commission:

Jan 6 reinvented as Woodstock: “Too much spirit and faith and love, there was such love at that rally, you had over a million people,”

https://www.politico.com/news/2021/07/11/trump-jan-6-insurrection-these-were-great-people-499165Trump: "Who is the person that shot an innocent, wonderful, incredible woman, a military woman, right in the head? There is no repercussion — that were on the other side, it would be the biggest story in this country. Who shot Ashli Babbitt? People want to know and why.”

Bartiromo: Babbitt was “a wonderful woman fatally shot on January 6 as she tried to climb out of a broken window.”

Donald Trump, the Failed Leader of the Free World, and Fox News is still telling the Big Lie!

Anybody who was there as an extreme Trump supporter deserves what they got. Most were criminal and civil charges, hopefully leading to incarceration for many years to come. In Ashli Babbitt's case it was death. You don't trespass where you don't belong.

Rudy Guiliani? Sanctioned by the New York State Bar Association and the New York State Appellate Court. He cannot practice law in New York State. And without a valid license, forget practicing law anywhere else.

You want a protest song from Woodstock?

The Rolling Stones and Neil Young, Stephen Stills, Graham Nash, David Crosby won't allow Donald Trump or any other politician to use their songs in political ads.

Here's two more protest songs from 1969 and 1970:

Lastly, the title of this thread, "What's Going On?" -- Another protest song from that era.

I can't wait until # 45 goes to jail not just for 2016 to 2020, but for all of his lies and misrepresentations that he made while being the head of the Trump Organization.

When that happens, his political life will be over. There is no way that a soon to be convicted felon will be re-elected President of our Great Republic.

The day of reckoning will soon be here.

What can wrong at this rally? They failed on Jan 6 and are regrouping for another chance.

It is so far fetched, even Greene is skipping it.

Those being held are now ‘political prisoners’. Good thing Joe is a strong-armed dictator and can keep them locked up. Lock them up!

A member of the House Freedom Caucus (Ken Buck) calls out the Colorado GOP for promoting the false claims of mistreated Jan. 6 defendants. He even drew the ire of Marjorie Taylor Geene. Well done Mr. Buck.

Enrique Tarrio got 22 years for seditious conspiracy which is the lengthiest sentence handed out to date. The Proud Boys are doing time for their real leader. The one who keeps denying anything wrong happened. Wonder how that makes them feel?
