Just because something isn’t the most important thing to every voter doesn’t mean it’s not important at all. And just because many voters may not care about something doesn’t mean that they shouldn’t care about it. Donald Trump and a small handful of cronies tried to overturn an election they knew he had lost. Now, we have candidates across the country running on that baseless lie that Trump’s campaign, lawyers, and DoJ leadership have all rejected. If these people are elected, then they will try to throw the 2024 election to their candidate regardless of whether or not that’s who the people voted for. So yeah, I think it matters.

In Ohio, the people trusted the process and now rapists get to choose the mother of their children. So we should all be happy that things have worked out well, right?

“If women live in deep red states, screw them! Make children carry pregnancies to term no matter the risk! That’s what the people want! Trust the process! America!” I have to admit, it’s not a very convincing argument. What other rights should we let legislatures decide? Interracial marriage? Access to contraceptives? Which religion people practice? I mean, I’m sure all of that would be fine so long as we “trust the process” right?

Sums it up better than I could:

I was directly responding to the post of throwing a brick, lighting a match, and taking down a statue. All of those (I think it’s implied in the first two) are destruction of property and would amount to crimes if it wasn’t your property. I never mentioned, referred to, or responded to anything about burning down black neighborhoods or looting. I don’t appreciate words being put in my mouth, but I get that things can get heated in political discussions and we bring our own biases in, coloring the words we read. I wanted to know if there was a line between types of property destruction or if it was simply the viewpoint or content of the speech of the person doing the destruction.

I’m just trying to find the line between what damage to property is acceptable in a protest and what isn’t.

Nope! Where did I say that?

What about when they threw the first boxes of tea?

We know everybody involved in the fake electors scheme? We know everyone in on the Eastman plan and their roles? There was more to this than the riot. There was a plan in motion and the rioters were not the only aspect of it.

To investigate the attempt to overturn the 2020 election. What happened? Who was involved? What changes can we make to prevent a future attempt?

Wrong. DoJ didn’t indict Eric Holder because he had executive privilege. DoJ did indict Steve Bannon because he didn’t. Why did the DoJ decline to indict on the Jan 6 committee’s referrals for Dan Scavino and Mark Meadows?

Got it. It doesn’t say what you said it does so now you need to dodge and hope nobody notices. Well done!

Where in the NYT article you posted does it say the purpose of the committee is to affect the midterms?

LOL. You truly cannot read, can you? I said the committee was not created for the purpose of helping the Dems in the midterms. I also said that people may try to analyze what impact it may or may not have on the midterms, but that was not why it was created. Then you bring analysis about what impact it may or may not have and then hold that up as evidence of the purpose of the committee. At this point, I’m not even sure if you could pass the Turing Test. Your posts are no different than if someone created a bot to scrape Breitbart comments and try to reproduce them.

Did not realize that the New York Times was a member of the committee. I know you’re dumb as rocks and have reading comprehension issues, but people analyzing what impact the committee may or may not have on the midterms is not the same as the committee being established with the purpose of helping the Dems in the midterms. Nuance is hard, but maybe take some time to clean the drool off your keyboard and think things through.

Are you claiming that the entire judicial system, prosecutors, judges, etc. is owned by the Democratic Party? That across the country, Dems are given better treatment regardless of the facts of the case because of a grand conspiracy between every prosecutor and judge in the country? Because that’s dumb as hell.

Like most GOP pundits, Tucker Carlson thinks the people who like him are idiots and treats them as such. He puts on a dumb quizzical face while saying complete BS because he knows his viewers will eat it up. He’ll record his shows in metropolitan NYC and then take the millions he’s earned from that and his inheritance for frozen dinners and head back to his island estate to hobnob with the rich and famous while making fun of the people who are gullible enough to believe him.

If you think the purpose of the committee is for ratings or to move the needles on the midterms, then you have no idea what you’re talking about. Then again, I’m not sure what I would expect from such illustrious outlets as… Donsurbur.blogspot and tvline…?

If anyone is telling you that the Bannon trial was political, that’s a good sign that either: they have no idea what they are talking about, or they are knowingly lying to you because they think you’re a rube. There’s a reason Bannon was prosecuted for contempt of congress while Mike Flynn, John Eastman, Mark Meadows, and Dan Scavino were not.

Don’t worry, Trump’s hatchet man, Bill Barr, investigated the fraud claims and prosecuted those responsible.

Normally, I would probably oppose this, but Russia was using negotiated green corridors to funnel civilians in and then bomb them. So… what goes around comes around, Ruskies. Too bad, so sad.

Found some of that good old voter fraud. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/07/22/us/politics/suzanne-morphew-ballot-trump.html?smid=tw-nytimes&smtyp=cur

Agreed. I did not make that claim. I was just pointing out a false claim that there is no interest and that nobody outside of DC and NYC were following it. I am making no predictions as to its impact on the elections because I find that irrelevant.

Man, @BillStime must have a huge family. 83 million people is a lot of mouths to feed...

Nearly 6 in 10 Americans are following the hearings. Did not realize that 60% of Americans live in the NYC-DC beltway. Guess you learn something every day.
