    Many Republicans - including Trump and Republican Representative Louie Gohmert - have said the rioters were not armed, but Hutchinson's testimony contradicted this claim. She testified that both Meadows and Trump knew many in the crowd were armed with AR-15s, handguns, brass knuckles and batons and equipped with body armor.

    Trump was irate that many rally attendees were having to go through metal detectors, a standard security procedure for people near the president, because it gave the appearance of fewer people attending the rally.

    "They're not here to hurt me," Hutchinson recalled Trump as saying. "Let them in, let my people in. They can march to the Capitol after the rally's over."

    Four takeaways:

    Nobody watched

    Nobody cared

    Nothing was revealed

    Nothing was gained

    the only person who used a weapon on 1/6 was a security guard who murdered an unarmed protester......

    look at this comical list of takeaways

    1 Rally attendess had guns (none were used to gain entry of course)

    2 Lawyers had legal concerns with Trump going (which did not actually happen)

    3 Trump grabbed the wheel (which appears to not of actually happened)

    4 Trump threw his lunch at the wall (what is the charge here - vandalism?)

    No I don't. I've repeatedly said Trump is a bloviating, narcissistic, braggard, and blowhard. He regularly exaggerates. In a word, he's an asshole. But that doesn't make everything he does evil, wrong, or bad as TDS sufferers like you claim.

    The January 6th attack was an insurrection, plain and simple, and it seems to have succeeded.
    Red State America, populated mostly by perverted, devolved mutants, and with far fewer citizens than
    Blue State America, is running the fucking country.

    As long as Blue State progressive liberals want to co-exist with them, we're promoting dystopia for our successors.
    We partition, now, or all of America becomes the new 4th world.

    It's what we deserve, I guess, for being cowards unwilling to confront the deplorables.
    We could have put in Bernie or Liz. We chose the coward Biden. We're paying the price.
    Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775
    Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848
    Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose. Kris Kristofferson, 1969

    I'm venting, not crying, on the internet because I can't confront rightwing assholes directly over the internet, just as they can't confront me.
    I have zymurgy on ignore but accidentally saw his post while I was logging off.
    My bad luck, I guess.

    His/hers/its good luck that we're on the internet.
