LOL. Pretty sure the election proved that decisively. Egg prices > sedition/conspiracy/treason
Just wait until it becomes a national holiday and the history books tell a completely different story from what actually happened.
Then bring up the 14th Amendment disqualification on January 6th. Put up or shut up.
Forgone conclusion at this point. We’re stuck with this circus now.
Yes, it has, because of Biden’s cowardice and democrats’ ineptitude. Remember it took democrats almost a year before they even began investigating January 6th. Biden should have had Trump and his Republican accomplices arrested on day one. Biden is basically the anti-lincoln. He let the Confederacy get away with it.
Papered Over? Dude it has been buried in encased in lead and covered in concrete…..like Michael Jackson.
Papered over it was not. Almost every single adult person in the United States knows about it.
It’s just obvious that many, many of them either don’t care or they thought it was cool.
Supreme court didn’t care either.
It has. I’m sorry. I also tried, Andy Kim. I cared. I voted. But the thing is what it is. Jan. 6 is papered and flushed.
The issue was everyone saw it. It is in papers forever. But nobody cares anymore. Even I am mostly emotionally disconnected from traitors nearly murdering our elected leaders and enacting a coup.
Lmao? Yeah, papered over is an understatement. Once Trump pardons his mob it’s barely going to be a footnote. 3 months after the pardons mainstream media and GOP politicians are going to start going “What’s Jan 6th?”
That practically already do at this point because nobody paid a price for inciting it. Just the useful idiots that did the B&E in the first place, and they’re about to get off scot free and probably use it as launching points for their own ill-gotten gains.
The wheels of justice grind slow, but grind fine… Unless you are rich. Then they don’t grind at all. They succ.
This is as blatant an oligarchy as any other. So flagrant they don’t need to hide it at all.
It absolutely has. No one at all on the right wants to talk about it anymore. Dems dropped the ball on holding anyone of substance accountable. Oh well 🤷♀️ let’s just usher in fascism now. Seems like the next step.
When sedition and treason are left unpunished, it only invites more.
The inability or refusal of Democrats to hold Republicans accountable for January 6th has doomed this country, as it has shown that there is no downside to attempting to overthrow the government, and we will see another January 6th in the future, likely if Democrats do genuinely win the election, so that Republicans can remain in power indefinitely.
And all because Democrats continue to stick their heads in the sand and refuse to accept reality. Pitiful.
Maybe democrats should have done something about it before 2024 then
Let’s not let people forget
Well due to the existence of conservative media and their “alternative facts”, it really depends on who you ask but for far too many he’s right. They think it was nothing at all, instead of the most significant terrorist attack against the U.S. since 9/11, which – along with their plot to wrestle slates of fake electors into the shuffle – is exactly what it was.
The riot was a distraction to cover up their plot to steal the election (taking a page from fellow criminal Roger Stone and his “brooks brothers riot”). They thought we’d all be too distracted. Well they were partially right, about a third the country bought the lies wholesale, while another third watched in horror, and the other third was too busy/lazy/self-absorbed/whatever, to even notice or care.
the people that caused Jan 6 just won all 3 branchyof course it was papered over
Senator Kim would know. He was one of a few who was caught cleaning up the Capitol after the insurrection.
Yeah um there is been a 4 year propaganda campaign to whitewash the disaster that was the Trump administration.
do you think maybe it’s because the person who caused it never saw any consequences??
Good morning Captain Obvious here…
If anything Jan 6th is now a positive rallying cry for the dumbasses that re-elected that swindler.
Anyone still thinking Trump will face any kind of real consequences for his crimes is living in a fantasy world.
Just hold tight and try to get through the next four years of hell, and hope we get a little reprieve in the midterms, and have a strong candidate in 2028.
For any voting age adult alive today, you will be dealing with the shit Trump will leave us with for the rest of your lives.
It has.
Americans have been rewriting their history since they were formed. Propaganda is all they know and pontificate. Bullshit is all they spread. Bullying the world is all they do. Every allie they now have are slowly starting to turn their backs. The USA will be a much smaller threat with less power than they think without their allies. Allies who feel threatened should ask for the immediate withdrawal of all USA military bases Forthwith. World isolation from the USA may be the solution. Russia and China will be the beneficiaries at the end of the next four years If the USA don’t get their loose rhetoric under control. Bullies who make threats should be stepped on regardless of size.
FAFO.
It has. The people responsible for upholding the law against him did nothing. The people that could have removed him from the gop let it slide because party over country. And the american people, full well knowing who he was and how shitty his presidency was, voted for him a second time anyways. Some of these groups, against their own self interests (and in some cases, played as sheep voting in the wolves).
Jan 6 means nothing
Agree
Lol, “papered over”, the man who incited Jan. 6 just got re-elected president, it has not been “papered over” it has been buried 100ft deep
Because it has.
He won AGAIN.
Jan 6 is just a “bad day,” in history now when it should have been a decisive moment of justice.
Our slow march towards authoritarianism wasn’t inevitable. It could have been stopped. But Americans took what they had for granted because we felt too safe. Too complacent. It could have been stopped. But Americans didn’t care enough to stop it.
Yeah, because our institutions are too corroded and fragile and Trump is too dangerous; not to mention there were far too many co-conspirators to nab, some of which still remain in Congress.
America is an outdated plane without a pilot. I guess we’ll just let Trump crash it definitively and then we’ll pick up the pieces down the line. Or we just limp onward in our characteristic procrastination and delusion and see where it takes us. Nothing to see here, folks, enjoy the oligarchy!
I think it is fair to say most of America truly doesn’t care. People online in /r/politics and certain segments of the Democrats care, but by large the voters don’t really care.
>Democracy was voted a top issue!
Including by Republican’s voting Trump, turns out when you make a vague policy statement like “do you support protecting democracy” people will say yes.
Me too, my good man, me too.
Uhhh…
It has.
what? is there something remarkable that is associated with this day? the official record shows that nothing remarkable has ever happened on any such date in all of american history.
/j
There’s nothing to worry about: It abso-fucking-lutely has been.
At that point the worry should turn to fury.
Mhmm, and pardons for all the convicted insurgents are likely to come as soon as Trump takes office.
Merrick Garland may be one of the biggest disappointments in the history of our country.
I mean the people that papered it over were in chronological order: Kevin McCarthy, Mitch McConnell, Merrick Garland, the GOP appointed SCOTUS justices.
There were no consequences for Trump and many of his co-conspirators. So why exactly is anyone surprised that people are moving on?
What would Andy Kim like us to do? We voted in people that could have handled this after the GOP decided not to. Those people chose not to handle it. So here we are…
Isn’t this the guy who helped clean the trash and poop walls after the coup failed?
No crap. It was never going to happen. The oligarchy class rules over this country.
Garland……is on the payroll.
