YOUR PARTY DID THIS. YOUR PARTY DESTROYED THE CAPITOL. IT IS YOUR PARTY THAT RESORTS TO VIOLENCE.


NO KEVIN IT IS NOT OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO COME TOGETHER. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO QUELL YOUR BASE. WE'RE TIRED OF TRYING.

YOU CREATED THE MONSTER, NOW YOU MUST SLAY THAT MONSTER.

AND F'OFF

13. The only time when Greed Over People want to "heal the nation" is when they lack power

Greed Over People has had 12 years of Presidency in the last 20. No healing.

They had Presidency, Senate, and House at times. No healing.

Just polarizing for political gain (and thenceforth monetary gain). Which is why we are here.

to screw the Democratic Process and ram through their agendas while not giving a rat's ass for the concept of compromise over the past 4; make that 12 years.

Their whining is indicative of the fact that they know they are in deep shit, and would like us to be nice, forgiving Democrats and let all the shit that they, and the President were involved in just lay where it is.

I don't see how we can do that. Besides, Trump can cause a lot more harm in the next 11 days than I am willing to risk.

Blah, blah, blah... Tried doing that starting 12 years ago, Congressman. Didn’t work. Got the back of your hand in return.

The frikkin' gall of these assholes!

You feed your flying monkeys ton after ton of toxic bullshit, constantly demonize and slander Democrats with vile lies, treat us with contempt, act as if only you are "real Americans", obstruct and belittle everything that matters to us.

Here's something you can do, stop calling us "Socialist" and "Radical Left" - and maybe we can talk.

No way these people get to rewrite history or erase their own culpability. McCarthy and his band of vandals are also responsible parties for what happened yesterday. They had a lot of help with the nonstop lies on Fox News and right-wing punditry, the spread of Trump's despicable rantings, which they knew to be false but spread anyway. Because political expediency.

You don't get to walk away now with clean hands, Mr. Minority Leader. Look down, Kevin. Your hands are dripping with American blood.

32. The leader of the House Republicans
Sat Jan 9, 2021, 03:04 PM

The leader of the House Republicans

Did NOT keep his house Republicans from objecting the state ballots on January 6th

BEFORE the count!

He could have released a public statement threatening to denounce any House Republicans if they were to challenge the count with their objections.

He did not.

This public statement he is making now should not overshadow his refusal to not allow the tinderbox to be lit!

He is as responsible as any of the others.
