Now that the Democrats temper tantrum has made Donald Trump the first President in history to be TWICE acquitted by Congress.

Now that the Democrats temper tantrum has made Donald Trump the first President in history to be TWICE acquitted by Congress. What lessons are there to be learned and will the people responsible for this goat rodeo be able to learn them?

The actual incitement to riot at the Capitol had been brewing since well before the election, and even before the 2016 election for that matter. But the biggies for me were the SCOTUS refusal of the Texas election suit that was joined by 18 other States, the continuum of vitriolic, abusive, slanderous lies against Trump, and thus against half the population, by Pelosi, Schumer and a host of other Congress Weasels, including some handful of Rhinos. The obvious exposure of the Deep State and their clear bias at the IRS, FBI, DOJ and others, and then of course Big Tech and MSM first amendment violation that were all completely one sided. It all builds from there!
We need to get recall petitions going against all the Governors, Sec. of States, and other key operatives in the Frauding (intentional sp) of the Vote, many Congress Weasels and Deep State Bureaucrats, as well as lawsuits against MSM & BT key actors.
There is no question the election was in fact stolen, as laid out well by the recent Times article, via the “election fraud” of the MSM & BT failure to report anything good about Trump, of which there was plenty, or bad against Biden, or which there was also plenty. This, not to even mention all the obvious avenues of “voter fraud” that were clearly in play wherever it mattered most!
Finally we need to get a Petition started, to officially “Petition the Government for a Redress of Grievances”, and enumerate all of those factors that actually let to the Capitol riot and theft of the election.

“She wanted to put an asterisk next to his name.”
And the result is that she got her asterisk handed to her.
I seriously wish that we could get out of this without a civil war… but I don’t believe it.
Why don’t I believe it? Because I don’t believe that the powers behind Big Tech and the Democrats are stupid, that’s why not. All of the cautions you mentioned, Bill… I think those are things they already knew, and they were okay with that.
This leads me to the inescapable conclusion that our only choices are to keep going down this road, or to end up in a civil war. Simply put, I think the people who put themselves in charge will accept nothing less as an alternative to their own rule.

I just had a thought. After we straighten out the vote debacle, Trump should run for The Senate! Can you see him as Senate Majority Leader? Then a run for President.

I have been learning a great deal about the Russian revolution of 1917 and read an article recently on some issues affecting South Korea’s government system. The parallels with what is going on in this country are scary but deserve some attention. True believers on either side generally follow the same process of gaining, then retaining, control. Two key elements are demonizing opposing voices, rather than arguing with them with “better” data, and gaining control of the information stream. Whether or not one adds “fear” of the other side is secondary. That aspect follows naturally enough for the true believers and is engendered in those in the middle ground by the invective of the narratives. As you, Bill, outlined, our particular concern also is loss of faith in the ballot box, but that concern is shaped by the narrative of the true believer. On the side of the Democrats, looking at much of the text of HR 1 from 2019, the true belief is that there should no impediment to those permitted to vote to have their ballots counted. For those who insist on stricter controls which would strengthen the veracity of votes, the opposite is “true”. The best way to have one’s vote truly count is to have voter ID, scrubbed roles, and same day voting. What will play out in Congress, what will be laid at the feet of SCOTUS, will do much to determine the reactions of everyone in this country. Combined with the thrust to make all white people racist and to change the dynamics in our educational systems and businesses, the country will be divided further. As you once said in your Commencement Address (from Afterburner, you in a graduation dress on stage-which I have shared with many people), compromise will mean what? The resulting perversion will know no bounds, as was exemplified in Russia after the Civil War-all for the sake of power to “execute” the ideology in its most perfect, and therefore most uncompromising manner despite the appearance of compromise. When Schumer stabs McConnell in the back over the filibuster, it will be possible for the Democrats to subvert the GOP and render it impotent.
In China the nominees for office are selected by the Central Committee, based on the Progressive idea that a government only functions well if managed by experts. The Party alone has the ability to judge who the experts are, and while several choices may be offered for municipal positions, for example, no one is permitted to run unless selected by the Party. This process insures the viability and power of the Party. Just as we have fallen prey to the mantra of “trust the science” without understanding its shortfalls, we will fall prey to the shift in political funding and reporting of the news, all of which will convince or intimidate us enough to forgo resistance to these political changes and align ourselves with the Truth given us by our political elites. An outlier, like Trump, will be shut down quickly and efficiently.
As I said once to a retired professor who was speaking of the virtues of the Soviet economy, it was like a man who jumped out of a twenty story window. Everything was fine on the way down until he hit the pavement. Too many of us are still on the way down.

You are correct in the statement that, if law biding Americans do not feel that their only lever on government, the ballot box, is not free and fair, we will resort to violence to take our country back. In your video you seem to think that this is unlawful. How then do you square that with what the constitution grants us in the second amendment? To overthrow a tyrannical government was the purpose of the second amendment. So, the actual taking back of our government is perfectly legal and should bear a supreme court ruling. As bad as everyone wants to portray the peoples entry to our capitol, please tell me how it is even a tenth as bad as Ferguson, Portland, Seattle, Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta, LA, and the list goes on. The difference is that the people who walked into their own home (capitol is the people’s house) and were demonized for it. The slaughter of business owners trying to defend their property was criminal and the left promotes it. These double standards and and slander of the right has got to stop!

I recall reading it during the Iranian Hostage Crisis, when I was in middle school. I used to read the morning announcements, and the news. I got to pick the stories every morning. The number of days the hostages were being held, and the price of gold, were mentioned every day. Not sure if anyone ever cared.

I sincerely hope that we get the opportunity to have Trump in office with Republican majorities in the house and senate. I think we should impeach Trump a third time for being a doodie head. Obviously, we’ll acquit in the senate, but if they want to make this a joke, we should laugh with them.

Didn’t we have that the 1st 2 years of his presidency? Or at least the Senate? What was done?
I think we need to stop pinning our hopes on another Trump run and clean out the Rep party or make another party.
I also like the idea (from another member here) of having each “representative” stay in their own state and only come to D.C. or elsewhere on certain occasions (like votes).
Don’t allow them to congregate in D.C. or anywhere else. Make them stay in their home state & not pay for their housing in D.C. unless it’s a hotel for voting on a measure.
Don’t allow lobbyists to write the laws they vote on. Don’t allow ANY “speaking fees” and limit how much they can “fund raise” from each voter. They shouldn’t be allowed to get rich from public service.

Not sure how you can legitimately restrict if from a 1st amendment perspective, but we should also consider limiting campaign contributions for Congress to only those obtained from within the state, and also not outside of the respective representational district for the House candidates. On the other hand, our history with Jeb Bush’s and Michael Bloomberg’s large $ funding cycles shows we are often very resistant to flawed “commercials” that don’t ring true. A lot of money squandered in those two cases, and many others.

The pandemic also shows a lot of what they should be doing can be done “from home” and via Zoom or equivalent. Plus if they do “meet and greet” lobbyists, etc. via electronic means, we can claim a right to transparent ownership of those video interactions of “our” public servants [allowing for some separate situations for discussing classified and personnel related issues]. Then we can search what congress critter Smith agreed to when meeting with Lobbyist Jones, etc. Even taking votes (or especially taking votes) via secure connections could also be done remotely.

How can you legitimately restrict it from a 1st Amendment perspective? Why, by Executive Order ™, of course….. <heavy sarcasm>

After all, the various amendments say that Congress shall pass no law abridging any of he enumerated protected pre-existing freedoms. So its silence on Executive Orders ™ must be tacit acknowledgment of the validity of the tactic….

<it should go without saying, but heavy sarcasm alert>

Partly in response to Tim, and thinking on paper here, if we cannot restrict out of district funding (except international funding?) and we cannot compel identifying the donors (e.g., Publius, et al.), maybe we can still regulate the reporting to show how many dollars each donor provided. If you have 300 donors contributing $25 and one contributing $17,000, you might well ask what does that person really want, and why such a largish contribution. Some of that may be available already? Any legal beagles here to clarify this pro or con?

It is a conundrum. I believe such spending is a legitimate exercise of two of the First Amendment’s protected freedoms, speech and association. From my perspective, trying to regulate any of that is like throwing the baby out with the bath water. I’ve never come up with a solution to this problem. I’ve always said the problem is a stupid electorate, and the solution I’ve had for that is basically some sort of limited citizenship. But that doesn’t work either. Transparency is the best solution, but I hesitate to compel it.

The electorate needs to educate themselves. When they fail to do so, it results in what we have. The government we (collectively) deserve.

I think that they have once again overplayed their hand one more time. The whole thing was nothing but political theater orchestrated by the propaganda machine. Witnesses I have heard that were actually there say that the instigators on bull horns were encouraged to pack in as close as possible. They had no idea what was happening until it was too late. When they found out, they could not get out because the movement was in the wrong direction. The theater became obvious when AOC, after blubbering about how scared she was, was found no where near the capital building at the time, but attending via capital zoom from an office building that was never breached. The whole reason why the acquittal happened so quickly was to keep the President’s attorneys from calling them to testify about their involvement under oath.
The counter optic that they now cannot escape is that there enough supporters attending the rally that if they really intended to storm the capital, and was actually armed for that purpose, it is quite obvious that they would have succeeded. And if the President was truly behind it, they would have been much better organized and probably would still hold it to this day.
The thing that the Leftovers have to deal with is buyers remorse within their own party. In the absence of T.D.S., I can only hope that traditional Democratic voters will begin to realize the fraud has disenfranchised them as well. If they were willing to rig the general election, you can bet that the primary elections will have doubled down on it; where it would not have any opposition. I do not think that they have quite so power yet to survive a mass defections. They still need enough legitimate votes for the fraud to work.

I don’t believe there is any going back – the insiders will not relinquish one iota of their control and power. They are impervious to any call to the better angels of their natures, because, yes, I’m going to say it, they have no better angels. They sold their souls and have nothing left to live for accept the all glorious (in their minds) rule over the underclass. They and their duped followers will pay the price.

We will have to take back our country by whatever means necessary.

Ready the guillotines!

They have rights who dare maintain them” James Russell Lowell, The Present Crisis, 1845. Our unbridgeable American divide: we who want to maintain our rights against those who strive to completely destroy them. They may have been scared by experiencing first-hand a consequence of their assault on our freedom, but they have no intention of restoring our rights because they don’t believe we deserve them. But just because someone tries to take what belongs to you doesn’t mean you have to meekly surrender it: “By a vote of 51-43, the North Dakota House passed HB 1282, which would create a joint committee on nullification to review all federal laws or executive orders that are suspected of violating the Constitution. The committee, which is to be composed of the House and Senate leadership and six members from each body who would serve for two years, would recommend to the legislative body whether to nullify the federal policies based on constitutional violations. Upon the committee’s recommendation, the legislative assembly, by concurrent resolution, shall consider whether to nullify the federal action…The consequence of this bill is that if the legislative assembly approves the concurrent resolution by a simple majority, all state agencies or political subdivisions of the state and all individuals employed by a state agency or political subdivision of the state are prohibited from enforcing the said federal law, regulation, or executive order. Under the proposed legislation, the committee may review all existing federal statutes, regulations, and executive orders enacted before the effective date of this proposed law for the purpose of determining constitutionality and shall recommend whether to nullify in its entirety a specific federal statute, regulation, or executive order.”

I like the idea and spirit of federalism behind this legal maneuver, and can see at least three (now 4) issues related to it:
1) at a minimum it would provide a big waving flag to the federal legislative and executive branches that something does not “smell” right constitutionally. Thus some form of revision might be made if the federal government is responsive to such signals.
2) may provide sufficient impetuous for the state or some suitably impacted individuals within it (i.e., those with “standing”) to bring suit in federal court against the perceived unconstitutional action/rule/ activity.
3) but are the nullifiers also prepared to forego any or all of the federal funding and other federal largess that does get returned to that state?
4) and if #3 were to occur, and in turn some/all state citizens took an action to not pay any federal taxes nominally and (previously) legally owed, would the state also fund and back any/ all state citizens when they are brought to federal court for failure to pay their taxes?

How many other states will have to follow the lead of ND to truly impact any resulting federal action and corrective response? The colonialists said “Don’t tread on me”, and meant it. We have a much greater degree of interdependence (between states and individuals and the federal government) than they did back then, so we have to be careful that we don’t end up treading on ourselves, too.

Upon your third comment hangs the future of our independence. The cost of independence is our assuming the risk, in fact the likelihood, of being trod upon. About your second point, the states believing they must seek relief from the courts is a dangerous fallacy: “During the sixth debate with Stephen Douglas during the 1858 race for Senate in Illinois, Lincoln asserted: ‘Judge Douglas understands the Constitution according to the Dred Scott decision, and he is bound to support it as he understands it. I understand it another way, and therefore I am bound to support it in the way in which I understand it.'” https://www.theblaze.com/conservative-review/lincolns-legacy-nothing-can-stop-president-trump-asking-citizenship-question-2020-census Daniel Horowitz has written a lot about the constitutionally fatal error of deference to the courts, both in his book, Stolen Sovereignty, as well as in many articles. If you wish to pursue the subject further, I suggest you type “Daniel Horowitz Lincoln Douglas debate” into your preferred search engine and multiple articles discussing the topic will pop up.

It seems that you still buy the lie that it was the Trump ralliers who attacked the Capitol. Every time you mentioned that it was the ones who got shafted in the election who responded angrily by perpetrating this attack. That’s been disproven! Stop accusing the Trump supporters! It was pre-planned and it was planned by Leftists. I firmly believe that some of those in Congress were at least part of the planning and they weren’t surprised at all because they expected it.

Agreed. It’s a “false flag operation”–a tried and true method used by Marxists/Communists/Socialists/Color Revolution players again and again and again. I don’t doubt that a few Trump supporters could have gotten caught up in the heat of the moment with people yelling, “Come on, Patriots! Let’s go.” (Sounded/Looked totally made up to me).
Too much news is coming out about prior efforts made, caches of weapons, bragging on various media, selfies and videos made at the time, etc. Obviously, the Left was in on it since they turned down Trump’s offer of National Guard ahead of time, had too few Capitol police available, can’t keep their stories straight, etc.

The blatancy of their perfidy is galling, to put it mildly. They (the Left) have no shame or compunction as far as the means by which they choose to wrest control over, at a minimum, half the country. I do believe moderate democrats exist who are appalled by these insurrectionists and would side with those of us who rise up and say “no more”.

We need a Conservative Walk Away from a stolen government that has chosen a platform of Anti-Americanism. North Dakota seems worthy of being our capitol.

We must shed our natural inclination to judge others actions by our own. Honesty and fairness is our happy place, but we don’t have that luxury any more. The capitol riot was a set-up and no one is being held accountable…except of course, those who aren’t. Instead we are insulted and as Bill said, humiliated by the second Trump impeachment, blamed for a deadly stunt that cost lives, our voices and our votes stolen and treated like less than second class citizens.Their hubris will cost them. If they try to “tea-bag” us, we will resort to the southern Scotts Highlander’s practice of grabbing our opponents testicles and castrating them by hand. They are right to be afraid. Very afraid.

So says a woman scorned.

The first move out of the gate for the Biden administration is an embarrassing loss for team D. Not the play I would have called; now let’s see if it has more repercussions.

Just as during the days of our founding, when the bootheel of Englands empire was on the necks of the colonies, people had to decide if they were willing to fight for independence. We are nearing that point, and though most patriots do not want, or wish for a revolution, it may well come to such. When all recourse and choice in how our country is run and removed, we become nothing but slaves. I do not believe most of the population is willing to be herded into a pen of dependence and subjugation to a all powerful central government. Am I pushing a violent uprising, not at all. But the fact remains that when all other options to correct what amounts to a take over of our freedoms are removed, it sets the stage for other measures that are with out a doubt scary to say the least. I pray we do not get to that point.

When violent revolution finally breaks out, it’s going to be something the left hasn’t even imagined. There’s that much pent-up anger out there. Won’t take much to set it off.

The problem is anger must be controlled in a constructive way because if it isn’t it becomes a riot and more people die than is necessary. Think of the Boston Massacre when angry civilians faced soldiers with rifles.

Yeah, good luck with that.

I’m not saying I approve, just that it’s going to be unbelievable.

In HS (early 80s) a friend’s dad got tickets to a Jets-Dolphins game at old Shea stadium. What he didn’t tell my parents was that while the dad had great seats, he had scored the three of us HS’ers upper deck seats.
We were sitting between a large group of Dolphin’s fans and the rest of the upper deck at Shea.
It was . . . undignified. Lots of punches and beer thrown. Everything 3 15 year olds could want.
Heck, you would have thought the Eagles were in town.

Were they throwing batteries?

I live about 60 miles from Philly and grew up a little closer, so the news in my youth was all about the Eagles. The primary characteristic of Eagles fans is that they love and hate the team in equal measure, so nothing the team does is ever good enough. Yeah, they won the Super Bowl a few years back, but they didn’t go undefeated. If they ever do go undefeated, they won’t have gone un-scored-upon. If they ever go undefeated and un-scored-upon, they won’t have scored a touchdown on the first play every time they got the ball. And so on.

But I’ve been a Packers fan since about 1965, so I only watch them and chuckle.

And of course, when this inevitably backfires on them don’t expect any members of The Radical Left to accept any responsibility for the consequences of their actions
