    Find it yourself. It's been 10 months since the 1/6 Incident, and the government has yet to charge insurrection or anything therein. We know the truth of the matter, and the truth of this matter is that the committee is a total waste of our time.

    No, I could if I wanted to. I just don't want to. Well, this will end by November of next year anyway when the mid terms return the House to Republican hands.

    Fine, here. https://news.yahoo.com/fbi-finds-no-evidence-trump-153636457.html

    No scheme existed, none was ever concocted and in a sane world with good policymakers this sham of a commission would've been dissolved. But we don't live in a sane world, we live in one where Nancy Pelosi is trying to increase her odds of retaining her house seat, let alone the Democratic Majority

    That's all this is.

    LOL. Yeah. Just like the Mueller report. It's right around the corner. Be patient. Any day now. You can't call it an insurrection if no one gets charged with insurrection. Why don't you wait until after the investigation is over to call it an insurrection IF someone is actually charged with insurrection? Why call it that now when there is no proof of an insurrection? If there was proof then someone would be charged with insurrection.

    I provided an opinion. Opinions aren't right or wrong. They are just opinions. I stand by mine.

    A bad law in my view. Probably politically motivated. The president that signed it didn't do himself any favors.

    An insurrection can be an insurrection even if nobody is charged with insurrection.

    You won’t provide a link because the FBI didn’t say what you claim they said.

    I did in fact provide a link, it's actually public knowledge and anyone can research it. 1/6 is a distant memory to 95% of Americans. A meager riot which didn't affect the political or social-economic factor of the country beyond an initial scare period is nothing to be concerned with.

    Every protest where they resist and clash with the police is by dictionary definition an insurrection. Not really relevant since we are talking about criminal statutes on inciting insurrection.

    You provided a link to a story that relied on two anonymous sources. That is not what you claimed. You claimed
    The DOJ has not “come out and said” anything.

    And by the way, the sources did not claim there was no evidence of pre-planning. They said “scant” evidence. Which means some. Not a lot, but some

    You know? Keep clinging to the pearls. It's a free country. You can cling to pearls, I can believe that this saga will eventually end but not a moment too soon and much money wasted.

    Link me to the FBI public statement of record, there is none but some news articles with unknown sources. But you already knew that and the post was disingenuous opining.

    I'm not clinging to anything. All I did was point out that your post was factually wrong.

    It was sort of, almost close to right. But it was also completely wrong. I believe in precision of language and your post was just lazy. Maybe you believed it to be true, but if so, that is the power of confirmation bias in action. You took a story and extended it to match your beliefs.

    *Yawn*. Wake up me when you come to grips that there's no insurrection, no plot and when this stupidity finally collapses on itself.

    Yawn.
    Next time you write a post, try to make it accurate. Not made up BS.

    Oh you mean the 2 Republican led Senate committees that found your and Trump's statements to be completely false.

    No Committee declared no such thing. In reality on planet earth, no one's been charged("yet") with insurrection and it's a fairly firm prediction that no one will be.

    This may come as a total shock to you after the dark years, but presidents shouldn't be in the job to do themselves favors...

    That is 100% true.. mostly since insurrection is not actually written in the law anyway.

    The actual law is seditious conspiracy, when they eventually identify the "two or more people" who conspired

    SNIP
    If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.
    ENDSNIP

    There's a lot of "or's" in there, but in the case of 1/6, I think you can go with "and's"

    Yes, we know that is the left's viewpoint. Label it anything for political purposes. Somebody steals a beer from Pelosi's fridge and you label it an insurrection.
