    So prosecutors are making phony claims to push a political narrative? I am shocked...NOT!

    Really folks? Do we still have to keep doing this baloney with the fake news and phony narratives? This kind of thing is becoming a joke. Hey lefties, you will never get the utopia you think you will get so could we just drop the nonsense.

    As I have said these so called evil seditious "rioters" were nothing but trespassers taking selfies.

    That's all they do in Washington DC. Make up stories and point fingers at eachother.

    Just like with anti gun legislation apparently only five dead during the insurrection is an insufficient number of deaths to trigger right wing action ????

    Oh puh-leeze, using the deaths of others to push a political narrative is not only getting old but it is quite undesirable to say the least.

    And most of those "evil seditious "rioters"" were careful to stay within the tourist rope lines put in place by the Capitol Police.

    Prosecutors go after the crimes they are sure to win. It has nothing to do with what the person may actually be guilty of doing. That is why a "not guilty" verdict doesn't mean "innocent".

    In this country you are innocent until proven guilty. If they can’t make a case against you then you are innocent. It’s a fairly simple concept.

    Presumed innocent until proven guilty is the official line. Anyone that's ever worked in law enforcement or been arrested can tell you that in REALITY you are presumed guilty from the start. Regardless, being found "not guilty" is not the same as being "innocent".

    Isn't the first time a line of political BS being peddled went up in smoke when confronted with reality.

    If the action is going to go in the wrong direction, then the best action is no action at all. A classic case of the cure being worse than the disease.

    Don't forget folks. The capital riot was the ONLY riot that ever happened in the past few years. That whole CHAZ thing was a made up story and all of the buildings that were burned were actually just CGI.

    I have read and heard that LOTS of those arrested are going to claim that the doors were open and the capital police were just letting them in so they thought it was OK and have their own videos to show it.

    Not even one.

    Proving once again that MSM = Fake News.
    The coverage of the "insurrection" was nothing but another Fake News hustle.

    There was no attempted insurrection. It was a minor riot that was ultimately small and meaningless. The truth is out haha.

    Were the three rioters killed armed? I can't seem to get an answer other then "Yes the rioters were armed with pepper spray, bats, tasers and flag poles. Nothing specifically as to the weapons the three killed were brandishing?
