The Real Story of January 6

Guess who? I think you forgot to mention that a riot lasting 7 months compared to a day is going to result in more tragedies and destruction. I love your obsession with going as far right as you can go.

"A bake sale, also known as a cake sale or cake stall, is a fundraising activity where baked goods such as doughnuts, cupcakes and cookies, sometimes along with other foods, are sold. Bake sales are usually held by small, non-profit organizations, such as clubs, school groups and charitable organizations."

Great Imdb review, 1/10!

Surprised considering it was Epoch Times.

There was no bombshells in this documentary. They criticized that some video evidence that could possibly be exculpatory to some of the defendants was not provided to them. There was 144,000 hours. If their lawyers worked round the clock for 1,833 days, maybe they might have found it. There was acknowledgement of the violence & it started by the protesters. A lot that happened was never mentioned. The police beaten with flagpoles & fire extinguishers. They talked about the chemical repellents, but only by the cops. Failed to mention the many protesters that came with bear spray, body armor & some with zip ties.. No telling about the rioters who defalcated & smeared it everywhere. Was surprised considering the right leaning of Epoch Times they didn't push the conspiracies that it was Antifa of an FBI inside job. The cops used less than lethal measures, but even then there is always the possibility of someone being injured. Wasn't like it was Kent State. Ashlee Babbit was one of the first ones breaking into the chambers while the members were still being evacuated. She is not a martyr.

LMFAO!

Conservatives are now reduced to spending all their times consoling themselves with narratives about how "the left" are just as bad or worse and how the real story is not the attack on the Capitol, but the theory that everybody should pretend it never happened they way they claim that everyone pretends that the "left" never does anything bad and how that hurts conservatives feelings.

You will excuse anyone on the right doing anything bad if you can claim that parity of esteem is not being ensured by "them" in the media.

It is fucking pathetic. The right in the US is basically a reality TV "star" continually battling to see how they can manage good/bad publicity to their net advantage.

Thats as far as a needed to read to know that this is one of those MAGA delusional fantasy films.

"BLM RIOTS VS. JAN 6"
Whats the point in picking two completely unrelated things and comparing them ?

JAN6 Vs sandy hook shootings
JAN6 Vs Vietnam war
JAN6 Vs Christmas
JAN6 Vs Superbowl
would make as much sense

Folks seem to be, repeatedly, conflating incidences of civil unrest with a particular cause in mind (BLM, anti-fascism, enviromental extremism) with the insurrection of January 6th to install a dictator. Whatever the degree of violence and unrest there was in either case, while tragic, it is not really the issue at hand. Whether the new Right does this due to ignorance, parroting of talking points, or to further their illegal, unconstitutional MAGA narrative is unclear. It probably varies on a case-by-case basis—one would hope!

The issue is not simply the riot at the Capitol, and whether punishment for violators was too extreme, or the media played it up, or whatever. The problem is that the despicable 45th President of the United States held a rally earlier that day to direct his supporters to head there during the official proceeding to cause mayhem and press the issue. He led them to believe that votes were conclusively manufactured out of thin air to steal the election from him (which he stated he definitely won) and that the Vice President of the United States, Pence, was a turncoat who had the power to fix the situation and deny lawful electors the right to certify the election. Both Trump campaign and lawyers and staff representing Mike Pence testified to this under oath, as well as White House officials *hired* by Trump who acted as witnesses against his character, lack of empathy, and lawless disposition.

In addition to all this, the proceeding was simply ceremonial! There is no precedent in the history of this country to indicate the Vice President at the podium has final say to determine the outcome of an democratic election in which he, himself, would be a benefactor to the determination. It's absurd. The January 6th session is simply a part of legal record to certify a peaceful transition of power. Any real challenges were already settled in the State-courts, where the Trump legal team unsuccessfully argued malfeasance. In many cases, they were literally laughed out of court due to baseless accusations with no evidence, or contrary evidence (such as the Georgia Secretary of State phone call - recorded) indicating that it was DJT, personally, who was trying to engage in theft and subterfuge.

We must not forget that one individual, DJT, was the prime insurrectionist. The QAnon Shaman with the fur horned hat and the spear who entered the Capitol chamber wearing face-paint is not who most Americans are worried about. DJT was impeached for his criminal enterprise. Republicans even left the party due to his un-American actions.

THE BLM RIOTS ARE NOT A LEFT WING ACTION
To use that of some sort of excuse ,or measure , for your Jan 6th insurrection is absurd

They have nothing to do with "The left"
Are you saying that after months of rioting you still have no fucking idea why they were rioting ?
That almost justifies the rioting!

As you seem to be unaware:
The BLM riots were a violent protest against police brutality and other forms of racism towards black people.
There is zero relation to right or left wing politics
They were not "protesting" against left or right policies or parties

Contrast that with the Jan 6th Insurrection , which was entirely a right wing maga political action the sole aim of which wasnt anything as lofty or idealistic as to prevent racism - it was to shit on the constitution , overturn an election and install an unelected dictator in the Whitehouse .
Orchestrated by the Trump himself purely for his own benefit.
Cant wait for the trial.
