Did you know that Congress has already determined, as a matter of law, that the Jan 6 Capitol attack was an insurrection?

[MagicMike]

Hahaa “we all know” we just never had any evidence to charge him let alone convict him…


Y’all should just get the rope and lynch him…like the good old days when your party’s power was threatened

Good idea!
Fucking Trump!
At least Adolph Hitler knew when to kill himself.

 

[Independent thinker]

That is wholly irrelevant to anything.
Trump wasn’t federally charged with this either but we all know it happened and that there is sufficient evidence to show that Trump engaged in incitement.

LOL. Yeah, it was an insurrection where no one was even charged with insurrection.

 

[MagicMike]

Funny how no one was charged with insurrection.

A small, semantic technicality.
Doesn't matter.
That is what they did.

No stupid, legal fact!

Congress called it an insurrection

You missed that?

Nope. Vandalism, looting, and attacking cops does not constitute insurrection.

LOL. This is law and courts. Trump faced a biased judge instead of a jury in the NYC case because of a "technicality". Now, all of a sudden, technicalities don't count after all. More proof of a two tiered justice system.

Bring it up to Congress. They called it an insurrection by an overwhelming vote

 

[SeaMajor7]

A very large percentage of Congress disagrees.

Bear Huggy, you get everything backwards.
There was no insurrection, and SCOTUS is going to slap down the rogue CO lunatics.

 

[MagicMike]

Trump faced a biased judge instead of a jury in the NYC case because of a "technicality".

Fake news.
Trump's judge doesn't seem biased. He has given Trump & company plenty of equal time on the stand to present his defense against the charges.
The problem is simply that Trump really doesn't have any viable, credible defense.
His guilt is all over the fraudulent documents.
It doesn't help that his only"witnesses" turned out to be family members who are co conspirators in the crimes and paid actors who were only sitting in the witness box to say what they were being paid to say.

And there wasn't a jury because none was required in this type of case.
Are you saying Trump should have special rules just for himself that no other person gets to enjoy?
Trump will have juries of his peers in his upcoming other criminal trials so he and his MAGAt cultists should be happy with that at least.
Even if he is found guilty right?
At least he had a jury trial.

More proof of a two tiered justice system

The only evidence of a two tiered justice system so far is that Trump is getting special treatment that most "common" people would not get.
Endless bullshit appeals wasting the court's time and bleeding his MAGAt sheeple's bank accounts dry donating $$ to pay his legal fees.
Stalling.
Violating the conditions of his bail release and still remaining out of jail.

Most other people would be sitting behind bars awaiting trial by now....but not Trump.

He's getting SPECIAL treatment.

Lynching political rivals is a good idea? Sad that demafasict didn’t die with Hitler

Wow. Trump's judge is very biased. It's plane to see. Except to those who are biased.

No, they didn’t.

[WTH_Progs?]

And the vote was overwhelming: unanimous in the Senate and 406-21 in the House.

The legal finding was part of a bill passed on August 5, 2021 authorizing Congressional Gold Medals for Capitol Police officers who had protected the Capitol during the insurrection.

Public Law 117-32
117th Congress

An Act

To award four congressional gold medals to the United States Capitol
Police and those who protected the U.S. Capitol on January 6,
2021.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. FINDINGS.

The Congress finds the following:
(1) Every day, the United States Capitol Police (``Capitol
Police'') protects the U.S. Capitol, Members of Congress,
congressional staff and institutional staff, journalists, and
the visiting public.
(2) On January 6, 2021, a mob of insurrectionists forced its
way into the U.S. Capitol building and congressional office
buildings and engaged in acts of vandalism, looting, and
violently attacked Capitol Police officers.
(3) The sacrifice of heroes including
Capitol Police Officers Brian Sicknick and Howard Liebengood,
Metropolitan Police Department Officer Jeffrey Smith, and those
who sustained injuries, and the courage of Capitol Police
Officer Eugene Goodman, exemplify the patriotism and the
commitment of Capitol Police officers, and those of other law
enforcement agencies, to risk their lives in service of our
country.
(4) Up to seven Americans died following this violent
attack, and more than 140 law enforcement officers suffered
physical injuries, including 15 officers who were hospitalized.
(5) The desecration of the U.S. Capitol, which is the temple
of our American Democracy, and the violence targeting Congress
are horrors that will forever stain our Nation's history.
(6) On April 2, 2021
Officer William ``Billy'' Evans was killed while protecting the
North Barricade of the Capitol. Officer Evans was a
distinguished member of the First Responders Unit and an
eighteen-year veteran of the United States Capitol
Police. Also injured in that assault
was Officer Kenneth Shaver. Officer Shaver is a fifteen-year
veteran of the United States Capitol Police.

So yes guys, it has been officially declared an insurrection.

Glad I could help.

Here's the definition for insurrectionist. As you can see, left-leaning loons meet the definition often. Perhaps you forgot what occurred in 2020 already, yeah that must be it. Insurrectionist is a person who takes part in an armed rebellion against the constituted authority (especially in the hope of improving conditions

The definition excuses Trump, BTW. But it doesn't excuse left-leaning thugs, as they meet the definition often. Perhaps you forgot what occurred in 2020, for example.

In proper perspective, the term is used for entertaining metals of honor and yourself only. Has anyone been formally charged for an insurrection? Nope.

Putting down fascists threats to our democracy IS a good idea.
400,000 brave Americans gave their lives in WW II to rid the world of tyrants luje Trump.
They must be rolling in their graves watching 60 million Americans defending this piece of shit!

Doesn't matter.
We all saw it happen.
It is still going on with Trump attempting to regain office.
He is not a legitimate (or even competent) candidate.

You didn’t post any facts, just a self-serving definition.
