No, President Trump didn't "called for the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol and wanted his minions to hang the Vice President as well as endanger the totality of the Congress, the Capitol police and anyone else who happened to be in the Capitol that day." That is the standard Democrat-media lie that has been perpetrated on America since that day. Trump called for a PEACEFUL protest, which is in fact the right of every American. While BLM/Antifa rioters have gotten off virtually scot-free, J6 protestors were hounded and prosecuted for what amounts to criminal trespass (funny, none of those "criminal trespassers" during the Kavanaugh hearings were ever held to account!). I grow tired of people who are incapable of simple research and merely parrot lies.
I would have to disagree about Trump - he absolutely incited the riot that day. I heard what he said and what he did at the Elipse and then what the people gathered did. It was all live on many networks. Plus earlier during the campaign when it was said he was courting racist extremists (during a debate I believe) he said what do you want me to denounce them…Okay please stand back and standby. And then there’s the - there are very fine people on both sides. I didn’t have to look up my any of this because I heard it and saw it. Although you may have heard and watched all the same things I did and have a different view - my view on what happened has nothing to do with “fake news” - it’s in the memory banks!
No, you didn’t. You’re a boldfaced liar! Trump clearly advocated peaceful protesting. If you can’t acknowledge that basic fact, then you’re a liar. “Racist extremists.” More complete B.S. The “very fine people” hoax has been debunked multiple times, but you’re obviously willfully blind. Even the communist website Snopes debunked it: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/trump-very-fine-people/ And then there are Jesse Jackson’s own words about Trump. Have you ever see this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5lcART6TTE You clowns are lazy liars unwilling to do your own research and repeating hoaxes from the legacy Democrat media. So much for you “in the memory banks.”
Sir, I fear your "brain" must be fried! I tremble to know where you get your "truth". You are so out of line that you deserve to be called one of trump's traitors! I watched that entire scene at the capitol that January day, including the speeches of trump and others. I SAW AND HEARD THE WHOLE UPRISING! Trump urged his audience to go to the capitol and "fight like hell!" I KNOW what I saw and heard! As far as I am concerned, that pathetic example for a commander in chief should have faced quick military justice, by firing squad! I would be careful who I defend! Hundreds of those innocent "tourists" are in prison and many more will be convicted because they believed their treason was justified! It was NOT! Trump is a multiple charged felon! More convictions await him. He reminds me of a fourth grade playground bully. He has only one super power...his BIG MOUTH! He gets followers because he spews threats and poisonous lies about almost anything! He is a hate monger! And when called to the principal's office, he TRIES to look innocent and mumbles "I did nothing wrong." You trumpers whine about every defense you can come up with. With you in mind, I quote a yard sign...I wish the trumpers would stop giving me the finger. I don't care about your IQ!
Thanks for your personal insults (low IQ, etc.). Typical leftwing tripe. “Trump’s traitors.” Please elucidate how Trump (and his supporters like me) are “traitors.” You are clueless about what transpired on 6 January and have swallowed whole the Democrat-media narrative. I say again, how many people who are guilty of similar transgressions during the Kavanaugh protests (they are equally guilty of criminal trespass) have ever been brought to justice? You did NOT listen to Trump’s speech. He clearly advocated “peaceful protest.” Are you going to continue to lie and claim he didn’t say that? GFY if that is the case because you are a liar. The “convictions” are nothing but Democrat lawfare for political “crimes” – unprecedented in American history. Recommend you watch the video linked here and wake up: https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2024/08/30/rfks_running_mate_nicole_shanahan_are_you_suffering_from_trump_derangement_syndrome.html
I'll spend little time with a response. You have swallowed so much propaganda that you actually believe what you say. You are approaching being out of your mind! I pity you. This country will NEVER allow trump near the white house again!
Trump expressed support for hanging Pence during Capitol riot, Jan. 6 panel told
The select panel has heard that, after “hang Mike Pence” chants broke out, the then-president expressed support for the prospect of hanging his No. 2, three people told POLITICO.
Vice President Mike Pence, right, looks on as President Donald Trump speaks in the White House briefing room.

The Jan. 6 select committee has heard testimony indicating that then-President Donald Trump — after rioters who swarmed the Capitol began chanting “hang Mike Pence” — expressed support for hanging his vice president, according to three people familiar with the matter.
The White House chief of staff at the time, Mark Meadows, was in the dining room off the Oval Office with Trump at one point during last year’s Capitol attack, the committee has been told. Meadows then left the dining room and informed other people nearby that Trump had signaled a positive view of the prospect of hanging the vice president, the panel heard.
Meadows’ account as it was described to the committee came after some members of the mob converging on the Capitol had broken into chants of “Hang Mike Pence!” Those chants were a reaction to Pence’s decision to accept electoral votes that indicated Joe Biden had won the presidency.
POLITICO could not independently verify the veracity of the claim regarding Meadows’ comments.
Two of the people who spoke for this story said the committee has heard testimony on this topic from more than one person. All three people spoke on condition of anonymity
Why, yes, you're repeating the legacy media lies. Politico and their "anonymous sources"? Give me a break. Their whole purpose in life is to provide the Democrats shade, from the Russia hoax through the present. Note that even Newsweek on 21 January 2017 had this quote: "I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard," Trump said in his speech. "Today we will see whether Republicans stand strong for [the] integrity of our elections, but whether or not they stand strong for our country, our country. Our country has been under siege for a long time, far longer than this four-year period." Go find the audio; do a little real research for a change. Try as you and Politico might, you can't whitewash the fact that President Trump called for peaceful protests, not armed insurrection. You have proven that you are parroting lies.
One of the sources quoted by Politico is Mark Meadows, President Trump’s Chief of Staff. What surprises me, Mr Cverk, is how a 30 year veteran like you, who swore the same oath that President Trump and I did, to defend and protect the Constitution of the United States, can defend a traitor who did the opposite and in fact called volunteers like you and me “suckers and losers.”
Uh, no, one of the sources is an “unnamed source” who claims Meadows made those statements. Regardless, let us pose a simple scenario. Imagine that the communist Biden had a “private conversation” with the DoJ Office of Legal Counsel regarding the four lawfare actions in various jurisdictions against Trump (NY, GA, FL, DC). What if Biden, in a fit of dementia, remarked that Trump and his supported needed to be garroted (or something less severe)? Are you claiming that non-public statements by Trump – which were again reported by anonymous sources attributed to Meadows – are somehow actionable? Imagine all of the private conversations that the communist Biden-Harris regime have engaged in as the weaponize federal agencies to go after their political enemies.
Lastly, I have been loyal to my oath for 50 plus years at this point, unlike you. Having fought against communists and their sympathizers for decades (which I ascribe to you since by your attacks against Trump you identify yourself as a Harris-Walz supporter, and thus a fellow-traveler and enemy of the Constitution), I recognize domestic enemies when I see them, and clowns like you who repeat hoaxes and lies as you have done in this “letter to the editor” and your replies are my enemies. The November election is binary, and anyone who doesn’t understand that Harris and Walz are communists who would advance the destruction of our constitutional Republic is either a fool or a fellow-traveler. Which are you???
To my knowledge, not one democrat, not one BLM member, not one Antifa have pled guilty to committing crimes on January 6th. It could be that there is a massive conspiracy to only persecute the peaceful minions who Trump urged to fight, fight, fight (or was that what he said when he was grievously injured in the one part of his body he never uses?) anyway, it could be the media or the democrats or the communists or the bogey man behind this dark conspiracy or it could just be that the only folks present and committing crimes were MAGA terrorists. Those are the only folks pleading guilty, and not just to criminal trespass (the fact that others who might be guilty of criminal trespass haven't been prosecuted doesn't mean these folks guilty of criminal trespass and assault on police shouldn't be prosecuted does it?). Many of these folks have said they were lied to and mislead and egged on by Trump. Now they all could be lying too I suppose--so they are either liars or terrorists intent on over throwing the government. I know I'm either a fellow traveler or a fool, but help me understand this--if Russia is a communist country and Trump has said numerous times that he admires Putin and thinks he should do "whatever the hell he wants" in Ukraine, how is it that Harris and Walz are the communists? I don't see them bragging that they get all the money they need from Russia (Don Jr.) or that they don't believe the US intelligence community's report confirming Russian interference in the 2016 election. The fact is Project 2025, the blueprint for the next conservative president, calls for replacing our democracy with a Christian Nationalist theocracy. This was repeated and proclaimed at the last CPAC conference--and we need only look at calls to force prayer into schools and to require the ten commandments be posted and similar Christian Nationalist efforts to know that this is very much the plan. That said, I don't want to miss the irony in this comment section, that while Dusty's piece calls for civility in our political discourse and Lanny wants to his voice heard by his representatives, what we see here is a lot of name calling and insults, a nearly total lack of civility--that is problematic. As one respondent said, why all the vitriol?
