What? The republicans aren't collecting money to bail out the folks that the left pretends are their "heroes"? I don't get it. If those in the R party supported this, wouldn't they, at the very least, donate to a bail fund for their "heroes"? Maybe they don't support it...
Hmmm. Wait. It can't be that. I was told they support it!
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

The Republicans Trump's terrorists threatened to kill are upset. The rest are upset too about getting caught in a crossfire by a mob.
Notice how this is all pointed at making a legal definition of domestic terrorism and then applying it. Half the stuff I did as a teenager would have me arrested as a terrorist if I did them today.

What was this fucker going to do- STUN NANCY PELOSI with a cattle prod?
I heard the FBI discovered something in his possession that he could end up doing 20 years- AND THAT WOULD HAVE TO BE SOMETHING PRETTY SERIOUS like evidence of a murder or Bank Robbery or something.
There is no telling, as the FBI hasn't formally had a press conference about those charges yet.
Anyway, he can't meet his Bond minimum cash payment! SO HE SITS IN JAIL- WHERE HE BELONGS ANYWAY!

M-80. Homemade explosives from chemicals at the drugstore. Some were simple like wrapping a CO2 cartridge in newspaper ball and throwing it in a burning barrel. Tried a few attempts to make napalm with both Tide and with styrofoam. It worked but igniting it upon impact was always a problem.

As a deterrence to others.
Now we find out that one of trump's appointees with security clearance led the attack.
No surprise.
The FBI on Thursday arrested Federico Klein, a former State Department aide, on charges related to the storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6, marking the first known instance of an appointee of President Donald Trump facing criminal prosecution in connection with the attempt to block Congress from certifying President Joe Biden’s victory.
Klein, 42, was taken into custody in Virginia, said Samantha Shero, a spokesperson for the FBI’s Washington Field Office.

I think those who were in the planning phases of the attack were fairly few. It doesn't take much to plot a riot. Especially with this bunch. I have to believe that if he had something to offer, he would have been singing like a canary already.
Especially since he's been sitting in jail for two months.
Once they identify these idiots one by one, they get access to email/phone/social media records.
Fish in a barrel, as it were.
