How much money did China spend on their campaign for Biden?
At least one demonstrator was murdered, why don't you mention that? Because it doesn't fit your agenda?

Posts: 2344"As I swiped through more harrowing accounts of those who were inside the capital,. , scanned new pictures and video clips that emerged overnight.
Yesterday's trauma suddenly became fresh again. I shudder to think just how close to the edge our democracy teetered, in a sustained violent spasm of pure and simple revolt and terror.
The fact that it happened at a time our country is already at it's most vulnerable, suffering under this soul-crushing pandemic, is not only unamerican, it's cruel.
And to think that it was all fanned by a campaign of lies, and phony conspiracies from guardians of democracy, simply rips your heart out.
Democracy however prevailed. In the wee hours of the morning, the electoral votes confirmed. And in thirteen days we will have a new President, just as the framers intended.
That's nightly news for this Thursday, I'm Lester Holt."
Lester Holt closing out the real news tonight.

Vietnam policies left some to be desired, but even still, less than 50 K US combat dead for the whole war when Trump's constant lies and Covid-19 denialism cost untold numbers of lives, perhaps in the 100's of 1000's.
LBJ publicly told the KKK to have a seat or else, and was man enough to know when it was time to retire.
Then we have Trump's kooky "stop the steal" Alex Jonesesque conspiracy theories and constant lies, pardoned convicted murderers and the corrupt cronies that lied for him, then inspires acts of sedition that lead to the sacking of the Capital and Congressional chamber, first time since the British in 1814, WOW. Let it sink in, because he lives in infamy forever, along with the dumbfucks that followed him.
And sadly it took every last bit of that to get that half assed concession speech out him, and to get him to sit the fuck down for two more weeks. 25th Amendment was breathing down his neck.

Is going to find how things wind up when you stick your neck (or dick) out for our current backstabber-in-chief.
In February Nancy Pelosi will be in Washington, District of Columbia, in power.
Richard (Trump Goon) Barnett will be in Washington, District of Columbia, in dc jail.
Donald Trump will be far away from Washington, on the lam or fighting extradition.

Posts: 2344"Because yesterday the President of the United States incited an armed insurrection against America.
The gleeful desecration of the USA Capital, which is the temple of our American democracy, and a violence targeting Congress are horrors that will forever stain our nation's history.
Instigated by the President of the United States! That's why it's such a sting!
In calling for this seditious act, the President has committed a unspeakable assault on our nation and our people.
I join the Senate Democratic leader in calling on the Vice President to remove this President by immediately invoking the 25th Amendment.
If the Vice President and cabinet do not act, the Congress may be prepared to move forward with impeachment.
That is the overwhelming sentiment of my caucas.
And the American people by the way. " -- Spoken today, January 7, 2012 by Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi. A genuine, true patriot.
Trump Goons = False patriots.

But yea we are talking apples and oranges. BLM has a legit cause, IE. Police brutality and systemic racism going back to the roots of the country. Those MAGA seditionists had none when they violently crashed the capital and congressional chamber to try and prevent the certification of a legitimately elected incoming government. They are traitors. As we all know they had their day in court dozens of time and were continually laughed out the doors.
The people have spoken. Conservatives are welcome to a seat at the table to discuss and vote on policy, but can take a hike with the kooky conspiracy theories and coup attempts. In fact for the latter they are going to jail.

Now, watch what the Democratic leadership does with the opportunity gifted to them by the 'crisis' of 6 January.
