It seems to be the people who psychiatry calls Authoritarian Followers, who believe anything their "trusted sources" of information tell them. These are the Trump cult. What can be done with these people? They're like the folks in bombed-out Berlin in 1945, with no food, who still adore Hitler.

Say what you will about Harris and Hillary, but when they lost, they conceded with dignity and kept democracy intact. Trump? He lost, cried foul, and inspired an insurrection. There’s a fine line between losing gracefully and losing disgracefully—and he’s way off the map.

So I recently had a dream about a politician that I was unfamiliar with, but Adam was driving the car and because he said that politician was good, I agreed. I can’t keep up with everything and it’s wonderful to know I can trust my BlueSky folks. Thank you all.

Can you explain why Trump's hand selected AG,Whitehouse Counsel, Campaign Manager and Director of CISA all testified under oath that Trump lost the election, they told him but he continued to lie to you? The majority of the witnesses were Republicans. You are afraid to watch it aren't you?

@dkirk412.bsky.social

You mean the same AG who said he would investigate any incidents of fraud and then told Bill Mcswain US Attorney in E. PA to stand down when he wanted to investigate numerous reports of election fraud. These people are the good old boy club. RINOs protecting the DC swamp’s power and money.

Especially, ask out VP Harris if she will uphold the Constitution. It is going to be really difficult for her to accept EC votes for a felon, traitor, and completely unqualified President elect.

Because it was a sham proceeding. Democrats CHOSE which Republicans would sit on the committee after turning down the Republican’s choices. The REAL J6 committee will be meeting soon. If you want to learn the truth of who was there and what happened….pay attention.

You live in an alternate reality it didn't pay attention to the drama when they were trying to select committee members. Please go back to Twitter and stay off Blue Sky. You harassed us to leave Twitter and we did, and now you follow us here. Kind of stalkerish, eh?

@bitchmeanswell.bsky.social

So you didn't watch it, but you know it was a sham? Because Fox Noise told you so? You're just a simple, gullible, ignorant MAGA who can't possibly think for himself. #TrumpsPoorlyEducated BTW, they asked McCarthy to offer up some Rs to participate, but they refused.

@clrock.bsky.social

Sounds like you are a victim of fake news. The proceedings were legal and ethical, and the truth came out, but Trump wants us to disbelieve our own eyes and ears. If they had "real" evidence to the contrary, you can bet we would have seen it by now on Fox News on a Neverending loop

MOOMIN59
@moomin59.bsky.social

Just tell me that when it was proposed a 9/11 type commission look into January 6th, the Republicans voted against it. They knew what the finding would likely be & didn't want any outside body looking into it. The R's knew this way they could say it was partisan. It was all R's who gave evidence!

@truebluemajority.bsky.social

That's not surprising. Many of them have difficulty reading. And watching the hearings would have meant missing "their shows" which is the only entertainment some of them get in the average day. To be fair, lots of folks on the Blue Team didn't watch the hearings in their entirety, either...!

quantard
@quantard.bsky.social

and you think that's only something MAGA suffers? it seems our politicians writ large don't want people thinking for themselves nor thinking critically. when you do that.. you start to see through all their promises, their talking points, etc. there's a reason our education system continues to rot.

@calidemocrat.bsky.social

If we don't have an AG/DOJ or SCOTUS to protect us what are we supposed to do? It should have started with Biden putting pressure on Manchin and Sinema to end the filibuster and expand SCOTUS, and Merrick Garland to prosecute Shitler and the insurrectionists in Congress or step down or be replaced.

The people who did this to the Capitol should not be pardoned. MTG tells us that the people in jail are being mistreated & it’s dirty. Hello it’s not the Trump hotel it’s jail! Look what they did to the Capitol with urine & crap put on the walls. They should serve out their sentence.

It’s a shame that our DOJ couldn’t bring itself to investigate and arrest the leader of the January 6th insurrection. They did a good job at arresting the minions who followed the leader but that was it. Pathetic!

@mitch.social

So true. For four years, the narrative has been twisted, reshaped, and sold—a tragic day at the Capitol reframed as a “day of love.” Let's make sure the truth doesn't slip away. Great article Adam.

If Trump pardons the convicted Jan 6 insurrectionists as he promised, he will weaponize pitchforks as a viable option to the ballot box in future. Would the GOP pass a law of insurrection to match the crime?

Same! I'm just glad he stood his ground and did the right thing by not trying to overturn the election. No one else in US history has even thought about doing such a thing. I don't see how Trump supporters don't see this. Maybe they do and just don't care.

@chazhampton.bsky.social

Police let the protestors in. Find out who ordered that (probably the same person who called Ray Epps) 5 seconds before it all started) and you will find out the truth of Jan 6th. It was no insurrection. At least not by the Republicans.

Moldy Teeth
@moldyteeth.bsky.social

The media blew it on this one. They should have stated unequivocally that Trump was responsible and that he lied about winning the election in 2020. Instead they fudged it. Trump will not stop trying to whitewash 1/6 as a “day of love” and I’ll bet he tries to declare it a holiday before long.

The same Republicans who hid from Trump’s mob four years ago are cheering and applauding him today. It may or may not be that Trump voters, as individuals, are generally more foolish or malicious than Harris voters, but the collective decision to re-elect Trump is malicious and idiotic.
