Speaking of: "More than 10,000 people have been arrested in protests decrying racism and police brutality in the wake of George Floyd’s death" -APNews 6/2020
It's a shame the authorities do not put as much effort into arresting people who wanted to overturn a fair election, staged an insurrection and attempted coup just because they can't handle losing, than they do arresting people protesting police violence/murder of citizens.

I did, an error. But was implied
U.S. Capitol police officer's family sues Trump over death
Jan 5 (Reuters) - The estate of a U.S. Capitol Police officer who died a day after the Jan. 6, 2021, riots sued former President Donald Trump for wrongful death on Thursday, claiming that he incited his supporters to commit violence that day.
The lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court in Washington against Trump on behalf of the estate of Officer Brian Sicknick, who died at age 42 from a series of strokes on Jan. 7. -snip
I hope they win and get millions from the insurrectionist/coup leader of the cult.
Good stuff...
The Right welcomed in the deplorable clowns with open arms and now they're moaning over their own fail-circus.
One of the concessions McCarthy had to agree with was that his Speaker position could be challenged by a single vote. Meaning if anyone of the 435 seats brings up a vote of no confidence, they go to a vote again. Smells like that "cuck" stuff they like to accuse others of.

This seems familiar
My ignorant arse had to look him up;
He was elected in 2018 as a member of the Social Liberal Party, which he turned into a conservative party, before cutting ties with it. In 2021, he joined the conservative Liberal Party. From 1991 to 2018, Bolsonaro served in Brazil's Chamber of Deputies, representing the state of Rio de Janeiro.
So not being any more familiar with Brazil's social politics, does a Conservative Liberal fit into the "alt right" box they like to use?

Instead of fretting about nomenclature and doing the equivalent of "the nazis were national SOCIALISTS" how about reading up on his policies and come and post about who they resemble.

Ok. I usually do badly with political spectrums and vetting policies but lets give it a go
....Oh.
..ohh.

Lula, a former union organizer who was also president from 2003 to 2010, said the local militarized police force that reports to Brasilia Governor Ibaneis Rocha, a former Bolsonaro ally, did nothing to stop the protesters advancing.Lula decreed federal intervention of public security in the capital and promised exemplary punishment for the leaders of the “fascist” assault that was aimed at provoking a military coup that could restore Bolsonaro to power.
“All the people who did this will be found and punished,” Lula told reporters from Sao Paulo State.
So police just waved them through?
The thing that really confuses me is what they hope to accomplish here. First off they didn't bring guns, meaning they deliberately did not want a body count. And yet they must know they will all he arrested and probably put away for a very long time for breaching the Capitol and messing up the place, and possibly beating people up.
What's the agenda here? Because Jan. 6 in the US failed on every level for the Right.
