Trump cancels 1/6 press conference

And by "Scott (sic) free," you mean convicted...

And by that, it sounds like you don't speak American English as your first language (clue: it's a common term used for hundreds of years, auto-spell check corrections disregarded)

Records rebut claims of unequal treatment of Jan. 6 rioters

Some people charged in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol and their Republican allies claim the Justice Department is treating them harshly because of their political views.

​

The AP found that more than 120 defendants across the United States have pleaded guilty or were convicted at trial of federal crimes including rioting, arson and conspiracy.​

Seriously? Only 120 across the USA convicted? At one point in 2020, just in my tiny, unheard-of, town, there were over a thousand rioting, many of them bussed in from inner cities: broken windows, graffiti, barricaded major streets, property damage, gun fire, and a general take-over of a major public space for several months. The first snowstorm finally drove them away, although there was talk of citizens taking action for ourselves, but cooler heads talked us into deferring to the law. Who, by the way, were defunded and now the city is crying for more help to curb the skyrocketing crime rates.

If your comparison said "12,000 convicted" I'd say that would be closer to proportional. But no, out of a few thousand people who got out of hand and went too far and caused some damage and hardship for one day, 727 people were charged (so far). Dis-proportionate treatment. Period.

It's "scot-free" to English speaking people and only you are responsible for what you post.

And yes, "only" 120, as opposed to the 700+ Trump thugs who've been arrested for storming the Capitol and/or assaulting cops. Seems recording yourself breaking the law may not be the smartest thing in the world to do.

Glad he did. Why should he waste his time??

Anyone know why the Dems want to keep harping on 1/6?? There was no insurrection or a coup attempt.

It sure wasn't D-Day or Pearl Harbor. Guess it makes them feel good to keep bringing it up. Poor fools.

The liberal media wasn't going to cover it.

donald trump has canceled a press conference scheduled for 6 January at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the attack on the Capitol mounted by his supporters.

“I don't think that's a good idea,” said Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.), when asked about the press conference earlier Tuesday. “I guess it depends on what he's going to say. But early assumptions are that it's going to be an aggressive statement. I just don't think it's a good idea.”

Similarly, Sen. Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) said she wanted to “stay focused on congressional activities." And Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.), who voted to convict Trump over his role in the Jan. 6 attack, said the event wasn’t a “terribly good idea,” but added, "What am I going to do about it?”

And those were the members who decided to even talk about it.

I thought it was a press conference. I dont think it was ever a "rally".

Of course there was a coup attempt. After losing the election, Trump tried to get his VP to hand him the presidency anyway.

Trumps cancelled his press conference celebrating the 1/6 riot.

Trump cancels Jan. 6 press conference

Former President Trump is scrapping a planned news conference on the one-year anniversary of the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.

Trump apparently came to his senses that celebrating the anniversary of an insurrection meant to halt the peaceful transfer of power was not a good idea.

Trump prefers a home crowd. The Press conference would not have had as much cheering and such that the rally will--and the Ex-President would have had to share the limelight with a Biden speech...and we all know how Donnie Two-scoops hates to share~

Trump cancels January 6 press conference

Former President Trump has canceled a January 6 press conference he was scheduled to hold at his Mar-a-Lago home, he announced in a statement Tuesday.

Trump had planned to reiterate his unfounded claims of mass voter fraud in the 2020 election on the one year anniversary of the assault on the U.S. Capitol. The assault followed a rally he held in Washington, D.C., and weeks of him falsely asserting the election was rigged. The former president said he'll address the issues he would have discussed on January 6 at a rally in Arizona on January 15.
"In light of the total bias and dishonesty of the January 6th Unselect Committee of Democrats, two failed Republicans, and the Fake News Media, I am canceling the January 6th Press Conference at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday, and instead will discuss many of those important topics at my rally on Saturday, January 15th, in Arizona—It will be a big crowd!" Trump said in an email message.

The former president's press conference would have come the same day President Biden will deliver remarks to mark the anniversary of the attack, during which he is expected to condemn the violence of January 6 as an attempt to overturn democracy. White House press secretary Jen Psaki on Tuesday said the president will address "the truth of what happened, not the lies that some have spread since, and the peril it has posed to the rule of law and our system of democratic governance." Psaki said the president will also commemorate the members of law enforcement who protected the Capitol that day.

Three more law enforcement officers on Tuesday sued the former president over the events of January 6. that Trump often touted his support for law enforcement during his presidency.

You're deranged. Trump even admitted he tried to get his VP to unilaterally reject states' electors.

Obama spied on Trump. Where was the peaceful transfer of power then?

No, just reporting the news. Trump ran away from the press conference with his tail between his legs.

Guess what? You have no idea of what Trump is up to. You have had almost six years to figure him out and you are not even close.

Your post is so illogical and so stupendously inane, as to be comic gold. Thank you for the good belly laugh.

 

[Lastamender]

Obama spying is a fact. It was proven by his administrations own documents. I know you can't help lying. Another lie is the only way to keep the lies going. It is not working anymore. In fact, it never worked but here you are as dumb and dishonest and hateful as ever.

Now There's No Denying It: Obama's FBI Spied On Trump... Period

If you are conducting surveillance that is not authorized and, in fact, you lied to get the authorization, you are no longer conducting

Liz will be dumped by Wyoming and it'll be fun to watch which team she pops up on afterward. She's the living, breathing definition of a RINO. It's also going to be fun to watch the Left scrambling to tell us all why it's horribly bad news that Republicans are insisting that the 1/6 investigation either reopens or is continued under a Republican House.

LOL Liz Cheney is a far right wing radical.
