The Grand Old Cover-Up

[kentuck]

Listening to the latest tapes of Kevin McCarthy and his fellow Republicans, one cannot escape a disheartening conclusion. They chose to cover-up the January 6th insurrection and the actions of some of their own members, in the hope and belief that it would all go away with time.

The tapes expose McCarthy and other leading Republicans as fully aware of the danger and the seriousness of the situation on January 6th and afterward. In some instances, they called out fellow members by name. They were fearful that they would incite further violence, after the mob on January 6th brought "ropes and everything else".

They understood that it was not a simple tour thru the Capitol. They knew that some of their own members were involved with the violence.

But, they decided to do nothing about it. They chose, as a Party, to cover it all up. They would minimize it all and try to stay in the good graces of Donald Trump, who they hoped would keep them in power. They chose Party over country - Party over democracy.

The tapes show the extent they went to cover up the crimes of January 6th. The hit dogs are now barking. The Grand Old Party Cover-Up is now being exposed.

1. Yes

They knew without doubt at the time the tapes were made TFG had to go and they covered it up.

2. They know it wasn't a "tour" of Capitol. But we'll need hard evidence to convict

any of the top dogs.

4. They didn't merely try to cover it up

They accused the winners of the election of trying to overthrow the election they won.
They should all go to prison

6. Their cover-up is an indictment of them all

Sure, we Democrats have had our shitheads, but we don't protect them. Blagojovitch (or whatever his name is) is now a rethug and good riddance. But rethugs circle the wagons, protect rapists, pedophiles, thieves, liars, murderers, and shout into the wind to defend them and accuse our side of their own crimes.

As much as I enjoy watching the commercials that The Lincoln Project create, I can't trust a single one of them. They were rethugs during the 1990s, supported Gingrich and Starr, worked to get the Bushes, Palin, etc. into office. I got news for them: Palin and Trump weren't the first to go too far. They were all shits since Hoover.
