This is typical of the radical left thought process and their need to have the only righteous voice during any debate.

Jason has absolutely lost it with the downplaying the smer and completely over-playing the capital riots as the next Boston Tea Party level of insurrection.
"Overplaying" organized attempts to assassinate leaders, as another person was arrested yesterday trying to sneak in with fake inauguration credentials, a Glock with a 17 round clip, and 500 rounds of ammunition. Sure thing, buddy. I'm out.

What happened Wednesday was not a threat to our constitution or our republic. Do you really think a couple hundred people, and I'm sure not all were violent in the capital building, could cause the country to fail. What they did was absolutely wrong, everyone here has not refuted that, and they should be prosecuted. I just with the left had the same fevor to prosecute their own instead of bailing them out.
There are court documents showing that many of the folks in this mob were planning to kidnap and assassinate elected leaders.

You couldn't even admit that point, and you made excuses for the mob. You answered my question. There's no discussion to be had if you cannot even admit that we saw an attempted coup from member of that crowd.
What excuses, please quote them

you've said you're out about 5 times now, and each time you come back, do the exact same thing George is doing, and get real quiet about responding to your biased and factually incorrect statements.

Still knuckle dragger stuff when it's going the opposite way or is there a more cheerful and progressive term?

Paying more for other's negligence/decisions was inevitable... I just didn't think it would happen internationally before domestically. We're back in the Paris Accord.

I'm telling you, hardcore liberals are every bit as racist as the Vanilla ISIS - literally everything in life they look at through the lens of race

Yep, my favorite part of Twitter is all of the Q folks realizing they were duped, and all the MAGA folks starting to admit that they defended what they knew were lies from Trump for FOUR YEARS, simply because they wanted him to "own the libs".

Such fun entertainment! :roll:

Yesterday Biden signed the 100 days to mask order... Anyone on federal lands must mask up. Then he proceeded throughout the day, on federal land, without a mask. When his press secretary was asked about it today, she said it was ok because they were celebrating an historic event.

Oops.

I haven't read the order top to bottom, but wouldn't that also include the secretary since that's held on federal land as well?

I'm less surprised that this all happened than I am that the question was asked. I guess 100% ass kissing only lasted a day. That's a real shocker.

Seeing Tweets from Texas politicians that the order yesterday to stop oil/gas leasing on federal lands is going to cost ~120k jobs? Yikes!

Pretty sure his real name is John Smith and he was just checking to see if his car needed a warranty.

The report today by the Washington Post makes the events of January 6th even more terrifying. And it makes Trump's inactions even more damning. Impeach him so this type of thing is never allowed to happen again, find out who was involved in giving these insider instructions (looking at you Boebert), and lock them up and throw away the damn key.

This details what the FBI found when they arrested the leader of the Oath Keepers.

Learned something today. I'd say the January 6th overrunning of the capital building probably wasn't the worst thing to happen in modern time.

I actually never heard of this:
