To the people complaining about social media censorship....
Guns
Incendiary devices
Pipe bombs
Zip ties
KnivesWere brought to the Capitol. The fact that all these weapons did not get inside the Capitol building or used is beside the point.
Social media was used to get the message out and assemble all these people.
We had Trump calling his VP a coward which instantly put a target on his back, Cruz sending out messages he was "leading the charge", and Giuliani wanting "trial by combat". The cherry on top of this shit sundae is the fundraising taking place simultaneously.
Five people died.
I don't believe there's a single person in the world not smart enough to know why these people are being shut down and censored.
Bad faith arguments and faux outrage are being pushed everywhere to deflect, distract, and change the narrative into just another round of standard, run of the mill red/blue trench warfare.
This is serious shit that could've plunged this country into a nightmare but thanks to clown world, an issue that should've easily united everyone must be used to divide.
Only thing that shows there's even a shred of hope for this country is that the polls show that a majority were sickened by this and want him gone.
Staying on point.
This all day long.

Cohen is cooperating with officials.
Something is going down....
Edit
Fuck it...I'm calling it now....
Trump resigns by Monday.
Pence isn't going to take part in the 25th. That's pretty clear.
That means they'll have impeachment drawn up and ready to go next week. I'm no lawyer, but I'd guess that by resigning he may have more of a legal hedge (if he then gets pardoned after resigning for example.) Although not sure how any of that would work. I do not see Trump resigning at all, unless it saves his ass. Or at the very least lowers the severity of the shit storm he has waiting for him post presidency.
Edit: I'm not aware of any new cooperation from Cohen, but he's been working with SDNY for a long time now in their case against trump. It would be worth it to go back and watch his testimony before he went to jail. I'd be curious to see how much of it came to fruition.

Well James I guess he tased himself in his nuts and then had a heart attack. Hard to believe a guy like this would do something so stupid. I mean just look at him, seems totally normal.

Some of the stuff that has come out today is truly scary and frightening. We were real close to a massacre. Some of these traitors had zipties and, molotov cocktails and rifles.
Indeed. I hope they keep arresting these mofos. It could have been much worse.

The 'doubling rate' is also scary. Right now I think it's about 6 weeks, and its at 3,000 a day. So by the end of February it could be 6,000 a day. Where it gets scary is in early April, the tail end of winter, could then be 12,000 a day?
I think over 4,000 people died yesterday. That's truly frightening and exponential growth is something to contend with.
I know and ICU nurse who is younger (24) who had the Pfizer vaccine with no side effects. A physician I know who is in her 50s, just got her Moderna shot with zero issues as well.
We need a WW2 effort to expedite this vaccine out into our country. This was something trump was unwilling or simply unable to do. I trust that Biden (or frankly any person with his experience regardless of political affiliation) will be able to get this ramped up within the first quarter of the year and hopefully fully running by the summer/fall. We have the infrastructure and money to do this on a mass scale, we simply need leadership. There is no way in hell trump's chaotic administration could address this. In the meantime it's going to be dire and only get worse until we're there.

Now McEnany is doing it as well.
They've all been told....quite harshly I would imagine....that this dystopic reality show we've endured for five years has been cancelled.
Sure seems like somebody talked to him. On the other hand, I can't help but think he's trying to cover his ass.
The Wall Street Journal Editorial board is also calling on Trump to resign now. I think everybody is ready for the reality presidency to end.
The Editorial Board: If Trump wants to avoid a second impeachment, his best path would be to take personal responsibility and resign. https://t.co/Pu7USKBnCr

Check this out....it's NBC Nightly News with Brokaw in the lead up to the Clinton-Dole election. Don't have to watch it all but notice the difference between that and the news of today.
24/7 news outlets also need to be reformed. No more sports entertainment outrage machines.
Cover the news.
Here's a CNN program in the 90s. To stick with the same theme, it's their coverage of the 96 election.
It's time to go back to that.
After we fix this, social media has to be tackled.
I don't think we'll ever be able to put the toothpaste back in the tube.

She died for nothing. Fell Into a conspiracy rabbit hole of idiocy and paid for it with her life.
That video of her falling to her death, wrapped in a trump flag was the craziest visual I've seen. Getting shot for her cult leader and then bleeding to death on top of his branding merchandise.
Think trump thought about her for more than one second?
One tased himself to death
How does somebody taze themselves to death I wonder?

They need to invoke the 25h. It's time.
There is absolutely no reason to believe trump is going to behave after his "concession" last night. Who would take the word of this man? He's shown over and over again he is not fit for office and is a pathological liar.
The 25th must be invoked and he has to be removed to ensure a peaceful transition.
