"[Trump] still has a great deal of support in this country and many of those supporters have already proven — like they did on January 6 — that they're willing to commit violence on his behalf," Fanone told CNN's Anderson Cooper on Monday.
"There's just no bottom to what it is he's willing to say," he continued. "He's like America's crazy ex and he's just decided that if he can't have us, no one can and he's going to tear apart our democracy and our country if he can't get reelected."
"We all were here. We saw what happened. It was a violent insurrection for the purpose of trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power after a legitimately certified election from one administration to the next. That's what it was." -Mitch McConnell, 02/08/2022
The shit-weasel Mitch is not wrong.

That and try to piece together what he can of the GOP before it's too late.
Did you see where they labelled the insurrection "nonviolent and legal political discourse", then tried to by substituting "nonviolent and legal" with "legitimate"?
Judge rules Trump must face civil suits over Jan. 6
Former President Trump must face the multiple civil lawsuits seeking to hold him liable for the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, a federal judge ruled on Friday, rejecting Trump's efforts to dismiss the cases.
U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta issued a 112-page opinion rejecting the former president's assertion that he has absolute immunity from the lawsuits because they concern his conduct while in office. But Mehta, an Obama appointee, said he was trying to strike a careful balance in respecting the legal shield afforded to sitting presidents' official acts. -snip
Oh goody. Let the hurricane of lawsuits commence.

Originally posted by RobtardIn republican Rome, elected magistrates and governors were effectively immune from the law as long they held office, but the moment their imperium ended they could be sued or tried for any crime they committed while they held office. It's one of the key factors that led to the republic's fall.

Maybe imperium isn't something we should emulate in the modern day? Maybe president's need to be held legally accountable even while in office?

The Roger Stone Tapes

FBI clears Roger Stone, Alex Jones of any involvement in Capitol "riot".https:///www.infowars.com/posts/breaking-fbi-clears-roger-stone-alex-jones-of-capitol-storming-involvement/
I know this will trigger many snowflakes here. 😛
Roger Stone has refused to give testimony and evidence to the House committee investigating the January 6th attack, citing his rights under the Fifth Amendment. Last week, he sued members of the panel to try to block them from using a subpoena to obtain his telephone records.
But now, he may not have to. Previously unseen documentary footage shows the longtime Trump advisor working to overturn the 2020 election and, after the January 6th riot, secure pardons for Trump's supporters.

Excellent. Hopefully he faces jail time down the road and turns over states evidence to save himself as much as he can, he's just the type of shit-weasel to do so.
Virginia Court Disbars Oath Keepers' Defense Lawyer
Originally posted by Adam_PoE
Two Florida-based members of the Oath Keepers facing conspiracy charges for breaching the Capitol are suing the January 6th committee to block a subpoena for their personal phone records.Kelly and Connie Meggs, two of 19 defendants in the most sprawling case to emerge from the mob attack on the Capitol, say they were notified of the subpoena by Verizon last month. The subpoena seeks phone records of their family plan from November 2020 through January 2021.
It’s the first indication that the committee is seeking records of defendants facing criminal charges for storming the Capitol. The Meggses were among the dozen Oath Keepers who famously entered the Capitol in a so-called stack formation.
A Virginia state court has disbarred Jonathon Moseley, an attorney who has represented a slew of high-profile January 6th defendants, including a member of the Oath Keepers charged with seditious conspiracy, as well as several targets of the House select committee investigating the attack on the Capitol.
Most prominent among Moseley's criminal clients is Kelly Meggs, an Oath Keeper from Florida who took on a leadership role for the group that breached the Capitol.
On Friday, after a two-day hearing in Prince William County Circuit Court, a three-judge panel ordered Moseley's law license revoked, court records show. Details of the bar discipline case against Moseley were not immediately available.
