Jesus. This is way worse than any of us ever thought.

[demtenjeep]

Stun Gun

tactical gear


shitting in the offices



good gawd

[mucifer]

1. I think we knew most of it before. BUT, it's on so many tv stations now not just MSNBC

[demtenjeep]

6. I would have been so very scared

I would have been so trembling

[olegramps]

25. No one should be too surprised by what these scum are willing to do.

They would throw their grandmother down the stairs and laugh themselves sick at the funeral if Trump told to do it. Just watch how they will be willing not vote for his impeachment regardless of the shocking video evidence presented the Senate trial.

[Arkansas Granny]

2. It can all be traced back to Trump, but Republicans don't care.

They are just as guilty as he is.

[Traildogbob]

33. Every one

Of those scum should be wearing a Melania Jacket as they enter and exit the chamber. They “Do Not Give a Fuck.”

[intrepidity]

3. A stunning indictment of the media if true

This level of exposition should have been and still be playing daily for everyone to see.

[Mr.Bill]

17. I don't think the media had access to all of this video.

It looks like some of it is coming from the middle of the mob. My guess it's from phones confiscated from people who have been arrested.

[intrepidity]

20. I think I've seen most, except of course the CCTV nt

[Blue Owl]

4. K&R for visibility

[PirateRo]

5. I don't see the gop walking away from this at all

It’s a stunning look at the GOP’s abdication of their responsibility, of their utter lack of governance and complicity with co-conspirators and it’s not just the Russians.

I’m surprised they didn’t bring in complicity with the Russians and the fundamentalists camps in the US. They had about everything else.

[RKP5637]

7. And the republicans sit on their asses basically condoning it and really complicit. They are

co-conspirators. Today's GOP vetting ... be a Domestic Terrorist, a Racist and a White Supremacist. A lack of understanding of how the government functions is a big plus combined with delusional thoughts and conspiracies.

[Irish_Dem]

8. They helped put it together.

[RKP5637]

9. Yes!!! n/t

[Hermit-The-Prog]

14. The FBI should tug on and follow every thread, no matter where it leads.

[Irish_Dem]

16. I hope any members of congress who directly helped the mob are identified.

[dchill]

35. +1,000,000!

It HAS to happen!

[crickets]

34. +1000000

[Hekate]

10. It is the months & months of planning that got to me. We knew some of it because we are online...

We could see some of it & knew they were planning a riot.

But we did not know the breadth & depth of the conspiracy. We did not know that Trump’s people were monitoring 4chan and 8kun and other denizens of the dark slime.

I’m running out of air.

[demtenjeep]

11. and you can hear that idiot yelling

the one in fur and face paint

[lillypaddle]

36. you mean the "organic guy?"

Give him a diet of GMO foods and nothing else!

[demtenjeep]

38. yes

and just now J. Castro showed him saying they won the day

[BigmanPigman]

27. Also..."Trump's political operation paid more than $3.5 million to Jan. 6 organizers"

"Newly identified payments in recent Federal Election Commission filings show people involved in organizing the protests on Jan. 6 received even larger sums from Trump’s 2020 campaign than previously known."

"OpenSecrets unearthed more than $3.5 million in direct payments from Trump’s 2020 campaign, along with its joint fundraising committees, to people and firms involved in the Washington, D.C. demonstration before a violent mob stormed the U.S. Capitol."

[Irish_Dem]

37. He played them for the fools they are.

[LazySusanNot]

12. Incredible. Just unbelievable

And here I was, looking forward to someday getting back to my “simmering anger” setting after being at “seething rage” for so long. Deep breaths in and out…
TY demtenjeep.

[spanone]

13. deplorable in every possible way

[DSandra]

15. Savage medieval barbarians who would love to turn America into a new dark ages

These thugs deserve no mercy.

[Mr.Bill]

21. You are correct about the republicans in the Senate.

But what about the mob?

[Tommymac]

28. See what you did here.

[XanaDUer2]

18. its way worse

I was sickened by what I'm seeing

[orangecrush]

19. Prison riot.

Same mindset.

[Mr.Bill]

23. That describes it exactly.

Makeshift weapons and the inmates outnumbering the guards. Like a prison riot movie.

[Cosmocat]

43. That's what I compared it to that day

nm

[lpbk2713]

22. Demand max sentences for all these traitors.

Pay no attention to them when they say how sorry they are.
Their word is of no value.

And lock up any members of Congress who assisted them.

[torius]

24. They want the mob's votes

The mob is their base and they hope the mob will go to bat (literally, with bats) for them when they fake-cry "vote fraud."

[Leith]

26. They're monsters

The whole lot of them.

Did anyone else get a "how do you like it now, senate rethugs?" vibe from Representative Swalwell at the end of his presentation? I saw people rubbing their eyes after that.

I also got the feeling from the Delegate from the Virgin Islands (sorry, I couldn't remember her last name) that she could not continue any further and gave it over to Rep Swalwell to continue.

[demtenjeep]

29. yes

how close we came-how close YOU came

[MustLoveBeagles]

[BobTheSubgenius]

30. Quite honestly, and not a facetious word in the bunch:

I'm surprised it wasn't worse. Would an arson fire or exchange of gunfire have surprised anyone?

[lame54]

31. Romney was running toward them

[ALBliberal]

32. Can you explain? I'm out of the loop today. Thank you.

[MustLoveBeagles]

39. Mitt was running towards rioters until Officer Goodman redirected him

Last I heard Sen. Romney was trying to find Officer Goodman to thank him for saving his life. Chuck Schumer also had a close call.

Here's the short video

Here's the longer version with additional footage and other related links

Here's Chuck Schumer's close call

Eta for CSPAN of today's hearing

I hope this helps

[ALBliberal]

45. Thank you! It sure does help

[bottomofthehill]

41. What a statement, the President left us all for dead.

Wow, just wow. Including his Vice President and his family.

[Roc2020]

44. the anger at Donald Trump

for this evil monstrous act on the Capital will haunt him and many around him to the grave.
