Greenwald: The lies about January 6.
-
An impartial commission like the Warren Report will be important to set the timeline and all the facts straight. No doubt we will find so many asserted facts wrong and not just due to the fog of war but deliberate for rhetorical purposes.
That said, in my head, if I narrow the lens to Trump’s comments about “wait for Jan 6” and the actions he didn’t take when the wheels started coming off the bus on Jan 6 I say the Captain of the ship grounded the vessel.
Is he criminally responsible, I don’t know without more facts. Should he have been censured, yes. Did he ruin and step on his own narrative, absolutely. Did he leave exposed people who supported him earlier as opposed to provide cover for them, you bet.
If at the meta level we expect the President to be Commander in Chief who’s job 1 is to protect and defend the Constition and security of the country, nothing else can trump that. Are many people maliciously overplaying their hand and about to expose themselves through an impartial investigation, I think that is guaranteed.

I'm looking forward to reading about every case of the nyt and post asserting wrong facts.

@jon-nyc what I want to know is how many armed protesters were found inside the Capitol. Plus, the fact that so many protesters were armed and didn’t fire speaks highly to the fact that this wasn’t an attempt at a violent overthrow of the government.

I don't know if any armed protesters were in the Capitol.
Do we have any facts on that?

There were some rumours flying about the Internet of reported Knights Templar and Dominican Inquisitors among the rioters. Haven't been able to confirm it although I am told, some crucifixes were found among the debris and litter in the aftermath.

Just because somebody has bad hair and has never known a woman, this does not necessarily mean he is a Dominican Inquisitor.
I was only joking

If they were arresting so many people with firearms and Molina, then it just makes the actions (or lack of them) taken by Capitol Officials, the Police, and Muriel Bowser all the more shocking and reprehensible.

Yeah, let’s leave out in their car as a variable. So, where are the reports arrested with a weapon on their person inside the barricade?

Nope, that doesn’t quite cut it either. They need to have been arrested with the weapons in them while in the building.

But we're still going to make fun of "mostly peaceful," aren't we? Of course we are.

Still, he looked suspicious and gave other people the evil eye.

I've noticed people rejecting the "coup" and "insurrection" rhetoric, and that rejection getting turned, rhetorically, into a slavish devotion to a conservative tribe.

If they were we would have seen Ms. Pelosi and Ms. AOC posing with them.

If they were arresting so many people with firearms and Molina, then it just makes the actions (or lack of them) taken by Capitol Officials, the Police, and Muriel Bowser all the more shocking and reprehensible.

You may have inadvertently stumbled across a common talking point for the BLM crowd and the Trump crowd. Disdain for law enforcement.
Elbows up!

The Trump crowd has disdain for law enforcement?
I watched white liberals on WTF talk about defunding police as if it were a serious concept. I also watched some who discussed their own children joining the riots. Proudly. These are obviously broken people and I feel sorry for them, and their children.
What is your claim, that the right and left have an equal disdain for law enforcement? You don't believe that. So why imply it?

The equalization of all ideas becomes lame. It's a common theme here. There are psychological differences between people.
