The electors are part of contesting an election. They were not fake or illegal.​

President Trump focused his attention on the man who had loyally served by his side for four years.​

​

On January 4, 2021, President Trump summoned Vice President Pence to a meeting in the Oval Office with John Eastman, a law professor representing President Trump in litigation challenging the election result. Eastman argued, on President Trump’s behalf, that the Vice President could take matters into his own hands during the joint session on January 6th. Eastman offered Vice President Pence two options. First, the Vice President could unilaterally reject the certified electors from several States won by former Vice President Biden, thereby handing the presidency to President Trump. Or, according to Eastman, Vice President Pence could delay the joint session to give State legislatures the opportunity to certify new electors loyal to the President. Eastman admitted, in front of the president, that both options violated the Electoral Count Act of 1887, the statute that sets forth the process for counting and disputing electoral votes during the joint session.4 Eastman admitted as much in a subsequent conversation with the Vice President’s staff as well.5​

​

Therefore, President Trump knew, or should have known, that this scheme was illegal—in fact, it violated the Electoral Count Act and the U.S. Constitution. President Trump repeatedly demanded that Vice President Pence go through with it anyway.​

Still waiting for your apologies on your January 6th lies. You asked for it, and I called you out. Either apologize or quit W.

None of that is more than an opinion.

Mrs Don Trump: “It is imperative to guarantee that women have autonomy in deciding their preference of having children, based on their own convictions, free from any intervention or pressure from the government,”

It is a lie to say the US is a baby killing machine because of Democrats because Melania has told us what the First Couple believes as Republicans that it is “ A woman’s fundamental right of individual liberty, to her own life, grants her the authority to terminate her pregnancy if she wishes.".

Melania is absolutely correct.

We all saw what the media told us was the Insurrection of the Capitol Building. Calling it the attack.
Did the media explain the Capitol was outfitted prior with bomb proof windows? Did it explain that 4 windows not made bomb proof were busted into the Capitol? Did the media tell you that when Ashli Babbitt was murdered there were cops several feet from her busy walking away?

When has cops walked off from an insurrection? The only armed people in that hall was the cops. Did the Media explain that to you all?

Part of an article is presented now for discussion.

The January 6 “Insurrection” that Wasn't | Mises Institute

After the Capitol riots of January 6, 2021, it seemed that everyone learned a word they had never used before—“insurrection.” Yet, if that event was an

Typically, coup attempts do not wrap up in time for dinner.
But over the next few days, with the anniversary of the 2021 January 6 Capitol riot having become a progressive political holiday worthy of obsessive memorialization, the nation will be deluged with tales of attempted government overthrow, Trumpian lunacy, and the FBI desperately trying to explain why it has yet to catch a person who—on video—placed two pipe bombs in DC that day but has somehow gloriously managed to track down and prosecute 1,000 trespassers.
Despite what the endless and tedious and inaccurate anniversary media coverage—all delivered with a joyously smirking “kid in a candy store/evil Republicans” tenor—will be claiming, the January 6 riot had all (maybe really only some) of the hallmarks of, well, a riot, and none of the indicators of an actual “insurrection,” let alone an attempted coup d’état.
For an actual and successful coup, one need look no further than the inglorious defenestration of Joe Biden last summer.
A coup is an extremely tricky proposition, as Burt Lancaster’s character in the 1964 film “Seven Days in May,” discovered much to his chagrin. The film (and the book) note the level of detailed planning necessary, the prior co-option of various levers of power that needs to occur, the cruciality for speed of implementation, and—just as importantly—the requirement of a post-coup strategy.
January 6 had none of that—the intentional political censorship and elite scheming of the past few years and, of course, the bye-bye to Biden had all of that (except for his vicious vengeful installation of Kamala Harris, not at all being the choice of Pelosi-Obama plotters, as the heir.)
In a proper insurrection or coup, one of the key elements is control of the media. If January 6 were a legitimate attempt to overthrow the government, the planners, in theory, would have made sure that only evil Fox News was left on the air, that it had changed its logo to incorporate buffalo horns, and that all other media—including social—was broadcasting or re-tweeting or posting reruns of “Welcome Back, Kotter.”
This did not happen on January 6, unlike the instantaneous media rallying around, supporting, and explaining why it was perfectly okay for Biden to be put on an ice floe and that Harris was not at all the squishy, angry, incoherent portrait of pointlessness that it had been portraying her as for the previous four years. In fact, turns out, the media said, she was great and smart and definitely going to be met with universal acclaim by the public.
That did not exactly turn out very well.
The January 6 riot was a very odd combination of chaos and politeness, an attempt at a serious—if utterly misguided—political statement, a tragedy in the killing of Ashli Babbit, featured absurd humans doing absurd and scary things, and was politically almost unimaginably stupid.

Trump's goons attacking outnumbered police at the Capitol as a consequence of the loser lying to them about the election is far too well documented for the hardcore cultists to deny.
