If This Insurrection Was Planned At The Very Highest Levels In Our Government Would You.....

give immunity to any one insider of this plan in order to implicate Trump and all those associated with this plan?

There has got to be someone in one of the associated agencies that was in on the planning that is browning his/her shorts tonight in fear that he/she might be found out.

With all the suspicions surrounding this storming of the Capitol Bldg - that it looked like it could be an inside job - it seems to me that there is someone that would spill the beans if he/she knew they wouldn't be tried and jailed.

Would you give that someone immunity?

anyway, without making anyone any deal. The number of people potentially involved is finite, and small compared to those who would be doing the digging and piecing together. It can be done. Nobody gets away without comeuppance.

On MSNBC they reported hearing the crowd shouting something like, "Where is Pence? Hang Mike Pence!"

when the Governor of Maryland was trying to get authorization to send his National Guard while congressmen were pleading with him to send them in.

This asshat needs to be court-martialed immediately, if that's possible!!
