It still feels personal to me even though I wasn’t there. I listened to Trump’s speech live and marveled at how little bitterness he expressed. It felt like a whirlwind of truths & lies from there. Up until that day no one who ever went to a Trump rally could deny the cheerfulness of the average crowd member. I’d never seen anything like it—the rallies were almost like a party. You made friends with almost everyone around you & the sullen, the quiet, the undecided couldn’t help but be drawn to visit with others like you would with a new neighbor. Once in we ended up in the front but there was a quiet, awkward & sullen 20-something kid beside me who looked alone and nervous so me so the ladies I’d barely just met started trying to include him in the conversation. He clearly didn’t know what to do with that but 90 minutes later he quietly admitted to me he was told he was supposed to be protesting & implied that he was hired to do it. I asked him what he objected to & he couldn’t really say. I have no problem with protest—I’d made protest signs before when the Clinton’s came to our hometown and refused to let us come inside our own hometown courthouse square because I couldn’t prove I was a democrat. I said “this is Missouri, in our primaries we don’t vote for a party, we vote for a person” but I might as well have been speaking a foreign language. None of the Clinton handlers would let me or my quiet children in. It was shocking. That was my first taste of partisan hate. So all those years later to be cheerfully circulating with people of all stripes seemed normal & right & healthy but to later watch J6 unfold live on TV felt completely unnatural. All I can say for sure is that nothing about J6 matched any previous experience.

Could you even imagine what that “sullen” young man (who says he was hired, but not exactly what for 😳), would have come away with, if the protest had remained “cheerfully circulating people of all stripes”? His scales covering his eyes would’ve fallen off, he’d be able to hear again, from the years of DEI & Critical Race Theory he’d picked up in our indoctrinated federal department of education!!

When the "Legacy" media became just a Pravda-like propaganda arm of the Democratic Party, our country was put on the road towards a second civil war. Progressives (an oxymoron if there ever was one) function on the theory of "I believe, therefore I KNOW!" That. allowed the fallacies of "lawfare," open borders, trasgenderism, and other insanities. Americans, once known for the virtue of common sense, have fallen into an Alice in Wonderland rabbit hole of fantasy triumphing over truth. That is a very dangerous place to be in an increasingly dangerous world.

👏👏👏👏👏👏Thank you, Jack! Also, God Bless all our veterans this blessed Veteran’s Day, thank you one and all for your service! 🇺🇸🫡 Now, onto the article, it is refreshing to see the the BBC take accountability for lying to the western public. President Trump never ordered his supporters to go storm the Capitol and topple the U.S. government. He told his supporters to peacefully and patriotically protest. But the BBC aren’t the only ones to have distorted what the President actually said that day. Jack Smith and the January 6th Committee did too and they butchered his speech far worse.

They made it sound like Trump had ordered a bloody coup to be carried out by his fanatical supporters who would do anything he said. They made it seem like he was Hitler leading the Beer Hall Putsch in Bavaria in 1924. This is of course, all nonsense. He did no such thing. Bennie Thompson and Jack Smith made absolute fools of themselves! Sorry to break it to you guys, but Trump is not some modern-day incarnation of Benito Mussolini or Mao Zedong. He’s the democratically elected leader of this country. Bennie Thompson also invoked slavery and Jim Crow to some how try and compare January 6th to those two horrific chapters in American history and make a false equivalency between the two.

I have a feeling Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman, Ida B. Wells, W.E.B. Dubois, Booker T. Washington, Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X, Medgar Evers, and Ralph Abernathy would’ve been none too pleased with that! The January 6th Committee disgraced our nation and embarrassed us on the international stage. George Washington and Abraham Lincoln were weeping in Heaven at what the January 6th Committee did. Chesty Puller and Pat Tillman were left to wonder whether their sacrifice had been worth it. Thomas Jefferson was fuming with anger. Uncle Sam was getting ready to throttle each and every member of the committee personally. On a happier note, here are some excellent reads for everyone in honor of Veteran’s Day:

Excellent as usual. What the BBC tried to hide was a deliberate siding with the left. Truth is a hard quality to come by with the foreign media, especially with the Brits. many of whom have never accepted America, still referring to us as “The Colonies." We’ve seen it in politics, in the olympics and even during wars where America was defending European interests. During World War II, there was hostility from Monty when Eisenhower was named Supreme Allied Commander, begrudgery accepting it as there was no choice. We had the men and the equipment .

It’s never going to change.

The European media has ignorance of the US as an excuse. Out media can't even claim that.

It’s not the left. It’s just lazy to call these people leftists. Yes they might use the left or temporarily align with them, but make no mistake: the people who ran the operation to get Trump had a lot of power. That’s where their loyalty lies, not with its ideological window dressing.

Frank Santora's avatar

I didn’t say they were leftist only that they sided with them. They do it at every opportunity and would do it no matter who had said it. In this instance, they are in agreement with the left. As I stated they’ve never accepted our escaping from under their thumb and still refer to us as “The Colonies." Stubborn bastards that they are.

Some of these damn liberals make me wished we still had firing squads. I would be all for lining some people up

What puzzles me about J6 is that Trump and those loyal to him should have known what the deep state would do. It’s been their MO for decades in entrapping their adversaries: good and bad.

For his entire first term, the Federal bureaucracy (90% Democrats) and their media propagandists ran operations to drive Trump from office.

As soon as the rally for J6 was announced I strongly suspected that the intelligence community which had driven the impeachment attempts, would plant their operatives to entrap the protesters. It’s what they do.

They continued their operations through the Biden autopen Presidency.

So, unless these deep state traitors are brought to Justice, the war on Constitutional government envisioned by the U.S. Founders, communist/globalists will not stop.

The Federal government “is the problem.”

It will take a generation, but only with God’s help, to fix “the problem,” which is the entrenched rot of career politicians and their Frankenstein monster—the bureaucratic State.

Thank you, the verse was perfect🙏

Don, The only part I disagree with you about is that we should’ve known something like this would happen. No one I know saw it coming—but then midwesterners tend to be idealistic and see those we disagree with as equals. Neither the gallows supplies nor the explosives would have made it past a rookie security guard at a small town mayoral speech. But what I do agree is if we’re ever to pull out of this it will only be with God’s help.

Don Estes's avatar

Jeanette, I’m glad we could agree on the one thing: the most important part to win the battle.

Matthew 18:20.

God Bless! 🙏

Ok I’ll say it. It’s blatantly obvious that the PTB in the British Isles were part of the operation to get Trump out. An obstacle to globalist plans? Knew too much about their shenanigans around the world? Dunno, but I do know that the producer brought in to manage the J6 show trial was a former BBC Brit. Obviously someone who could be trusted to put the correct spin on the proceedings.

These assholes need to be sued into bankruptcy.

Make the BBC register as a foreign agent. If we’re lucky they’ll pull out of America.

Now that Dick is dead, Liz can donate 3.5 Billion

Pelosi’s family has 2.2 billion between them all with one son who had an SEC indictment dismissed

Between the rest of the J6 committee and co-conspirators owe an additional 10 billion

Now, the legacy media and their corrupt masters as well as puppet pieces should all be liable for 30 billion in total

After NY is turned upside down, Trump will remove the UN and go after every single lawyer and judge who wronged him on purpose. These lunatic leftists have proven they do not belong in America or a part of civil society

I've never listened to a word from Naomi Wolf. If she was dumb enough to be an outspoken sheep for all those years, she's too dumb to take seriously now.

Jack Cashill's avatar

Aww, give her a chance. She knows how the enemy thinks.

I watched the speech on C-SPAN as it was happening. Trump sent mixed messages, and the crowd seemed unruly, and ungovernable. The worst part is that there seemed to be no end game. I had a feeling nothing good, and possibly, something bad, would come of it. Playing into the hand of corrupt Deep Staters is unwise

Naomi was NOT miss led, she simply CHOSE not to see it any more other way.
