Insurrection

[scook]

Here’s a test of your intellect - my patriotism is quite solid:

Yes, violent people broke into the capitol claiming to support Trump - no one here to my recollection has ever denied or made excuses for that. You don’t seem able to separate the vast majority of people at the demonstration, and even a good number who entered the capitol, who were not violent.

I’m not at all convinced that “threats” to hang Mike Pence were more than the “I’m going to kill you” that people often say in anger with no intention of actually doing it, but neither you nor I know that. Evidence of that might come to light in an honest investigation, on the very long chance that one is conducted.
