Evidence of that might come to light in an honest investigation, on the very long chance that one is conducted.

HERES SCOOK trying to minimize the historic , violent attack on our Capitol, insurrection attempt injuring over 140 of our police ,and threats to kill our Vice President .

Threatening the president of the United States and the Vice President is a federal felony under United States Code Title 18, Section 871.The law also includes former presidents .
Breaking and entering our Capitol is also illegal .
Attacking and injuring our police is also illegal .

You cant threaten the Vice President and escape the law by saying you didnt really mean it that way.

Over 700 thats SEVEN HUNDRED people have been charged - sounds like you want to be one of them so go on call our Capitol Police and tell them what you think.

There you go again, making a fool of yourself again. I’m not minimizing anything, but unlike you, I’m not cataphrophizing and convicting people without due process. If they’re found guilty, they’ll get sentenced.

I would expect a LOT of people to be charged with this highly politicized, dishonest, politically desperate administration. Of course, that’s all lost on you.
