So Trump was either too stupid or too cowardly to do the right thing.

Trump’s consideration of preemptive pardons quickly hit a wall. It was unclear how he could pardon an entire class of people that hadn’t been charged. “You didn’t know who the FBI was going to arrest down the road,” the first adviser said.

At the same time, the White House counsel’s office was forcefully telling Trump what he could not do as president, this person said.

Trump had the legal authority to proactively pardon before indictments. Other Presidents have done it.

Interesting if true.

I don't think Trump realized, at the time, how evil his opponents were.

Also, in a sane world interested in truth and justice, the Republican-majority Congress would have months ago convened new hearings about the Jan 6/21 Capitol riot to undo the manifold perfidious frauds instigated by the previous Democrat-majority committee under Chairman Bennie Thompson. By now, testimony should have been compelled from Nancy Pelosi, the then Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund, and former Defense Secretary Chris Miller about Ms. Pelosi’s refusal to call in national guard troops to reinforce security around the building, and to answer for the odd behavior of the Capitol Police, such as opening doors for the mob and then serving as ushers to show off the place. It seems obvious that many elected Republicans also have an interest in supporting the Jan 6/21 “insurrection” fairy tale. Do you still wonder why the evil entity infesting Washington is called “the blob”?

The Substack blogger who styles himself as El Gato Malo offers the alluring theory that a SCOTUS ruling on whether the 14th Amendment clauses that were applied to the presidency in the Colorado case, could enable Special Counsel Jack Smith to slip-in a superseding indictment (replacing the original indictment) in his DC Jan 6 case against Mr. Trump with new insurrection / rebellion charges, thus setting-up a fortified argument for states to chuck Mr. Trump off any ballot. More “lawfare,” you see. Whatever it takes. . .!

More curiously even, we learn today, that an amicus brief has been filed in the SCOTUS by former Attorney General Ed Meese (under Ronald Reagan), and two constitutional law professors, Steven Calabresi and Gary S. Lawson, challenging the legality altogether of Jack Smith’s appointment as special counsel for prosecuting Mr. Trump. The amicus is filed in the matter of Jack Smith’s certiorari petition to the court to schedule Mr. Trump’s DC trial the same day as the Super Tuesday primary —against the defendant’s objections. The amicus presents compelling arguments that Attorney General Merrick Garland acted illegally in appointing Mr. Smith, and if SCOTUS chucks him out of the special counsel job, the whole mendaciously constructed scaffold of the Jan 6 prosecution goes out the window, along with the Mar-a-Lago documents case.

WTF is "Ukrainian .... military .... film... crew"

NEW VIDEO – Hidden from Public: Q Shaman Stands Outside Doors of US Capitol and Tells Everyone to Go Home – Reads Trump Tweet to Stay Peaceful and Go Home

Q Shaman Jacob Chansley: “We’re going to throw up the tweet. Donald Trump has asked everybody to go home. Okay? – This is America. You guys want to stay, that’s fine. Donald Trump has asked everybody to go home.”

Fellow Protester: “Wait, read this.”

Jacob Chansley: “Hold on… Donald Trump, quote, I am asking for everyone in the US Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence. Remember, we are the party of law and Order. Respect our law enforcement. … There’s a video.”

This video, among others was omitted from Chansley’s trial. The Arizona man was later sentenced to 41 months in prison for walking inside the US Capitol, asking police if he was allowed to be there, was then escorted through the building by police, led a prayer in the US Senate chamber, and then read Trump’s tweet to be peaceful before leaving the premises.

The DC Courts sentenced Chansley to 41 months in federal prison for this.

Six months prior to January 6, Democrats, leftists, and communists torched Washington DC – nearly 2 billion dollars in damages was caused by leftist BLM rioters in the summer of 2020. Many of these protesters were later paid by their communities.

It pays to be a Democrat!

... this new documentary just came out about January 6, and I thought OK, let’s invest an hour and see what actually happened…it’s worth your time especially if you think the mainstream narrative on January 6 is true or mostly true.

(click link at top of this comment to see the video)

It’s very hard for most to conceive and believe that the government is willing and able to create False Flags.

But Empire requires narratives.

False Flags are necessary ingredients of narratives.

January 6 was a surprisingly easy, and “cheap”, narrative created to usher in more central control and marginalization of the growing dissident population.

Empire weaponized the public’s grieving over the theft of their vote.

Anyway, you can reach your own conclusions on what you think happened on January 6 by watching the documentary and reading the couple of summarized chapters from Julie Kelly’s book.

“The View” has been forced to issue a correction after one of the ABC show’s co-hosts pushed false claims about the events at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.

Co-host Ana Navarro falsely claimed that footage shows Republican Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX) pointing a gun at protesters during Jan. 6.

She was commenting on footage released by NBC News showing Nehls confronting Jan. 6 protesters.

In the video, a law enforcement officer is seen pointing a gun directly at a protester.

However, Navarro falsely told viewers that Nehls was holding the gun.

She continued by falsely claiming that President Donald Trump “was the cause for that insurrection.”
