    If that is what the Trump media claims then that is what it will be.

    The definition of insurrection does not fit the events of the 6th of January. I am very proud of these people who have stood strong against the persecution that followed.

    If the government uses a private company to act on its behalf to censor dissenting ideas, it’s as of it did the act itself.

    No, he is pushing the lie of a stolen election without a shred of evidence. He supports those that tried to stop the legal democratic process of certifying a Presidential election that had been certified by all 50 State Governors.

    That is a traitor to the USA and the democratic process.

    Yes. He is an American. He has a right to his opinions and to share them, though you seem pretty butthurt about both.
    He wanted the results of some of the States looked into further. Democrats have objected to results in some states in the last 3 elections where a Republican carried the presidential electorate.
    The Constitution puts control of federal elections under the State Legislature, not the governor.
    Hyperbole.

    How are all you guys going to deal with it when the Communist Party uses these laws to make you carry articles about "Abortion as Wart Removal" and "Venezuela; South Am's New Economic Powerhouse" on your personal web pages?

    Yes, that is the right wing narrative. It was more of a hug and kiss festival followed by a tour of the capital while a mob of undercover antifa people in full Trump regalia were responsible for the death threats, police attacks and attempt to stop the constitutional process of certying the election.

    By definition, it was an insurrection. Which part of the definition are you contesting?

    Opinions should be based on facts. Else they're just lies.

    If one actually believes a stolen election happened, present the evidence. Lies are not evidence.

    The Gov's sign off after the State's legislature approves the results.
    And it happened in all 50 States.

    The truth is never hyperbole.

    I'm contesting your twisting the definition of insurrection to suit your purposes which are persecution of conservatives

    No. Opinions are simply opinions and we are all free to share them. For example, in my opinion your failure to extend this courtesy to your fellow Americans makes your ass look fat.
    Your pretense that I made that claim isn't very honest. I labeled your hyperbole, hyperbole.

    Nearly everyone one arrested has been charged with nothing more than trespassing. This "armed insurrection" crap was a mass of lies, which is pretty much par for the course with these folks. They will hear from America in the upcoming elections.

    The Courts and the Legislatures are undoing all the illegal changes they made to voting security. They should have most of it done the next election. It will be interesting to see how much stronger the GOP share of the turnout is once it's more difficult for some folks on the Left to cheat without getting caught.

    Your post above is a wishlist of all your dreams and delusions Zorro. My prediction is that in the upcoming elections any Trump cultist running in swing district and depends on moderate and Independent voters will get crushed in 2022 and the Democrats will gain seats in the House and The Senate. Biden is pretty popular now and if COVID is under control and the huge bills passed (with 000 Republican support) help get the economy rolling, assist working class people and unemployment continues to drop, I believe the Dems will do very well in the midterms. All the GOP is doing is running fraudulent audits on an election they lost 6 months ago and passing chicken sh*t voter suppression laws in several states. I do not believe that their idiotic and racist plans will work out.

    I fear they may create an emergency to suspend the constitution before the next election. The changes were signed into effect by Jimmy Carter. You were taken over in the eighties already.
