cannot escape the feeling that things might be quite a bit different if they’da actually got mike pence on #jan6

“ Emil Bove declined to rule out possibility of Trump running for 3rd term & did not denounce #Jan6 attack in a questionnaire submitted to a Senate panel considering his nomination for a lifetime appointment as a federal judge”

it’s odd that not enough ppl in #PDX seem to recognize or know who this creep ass David Medina loser is - he’s always showing up at shit and pretending to interview people and then getting them inundated with threats from his alt right fascist followers.

He was photographed next to the “camp Auschwitz” Nazi on #jan6, folks, don’t talk to him, do something else.

17-year Federal employee fired for doing her job—writing press releases about DoJ #Jan6 actions.
She writes:
“We appear to be driving straight into an abyss that holds no memory of what democracy is, was, or should be.
"The people in charge who are supposed to protect us — our fellow Americans who we elected, along with those who were appointed, and swore an oath to protect this nation and our Constitution — now use the Constitution as a weapon to suit their own ends.”

"President Lulas ärkefiende Bolsonaro står anklagad för kuppförsök efter att han vägrat acceptera valnederlaget 2022 och hans anhängare stormat huvudstaden Brasilia."

Man förstår ju att knasbollen inser att det här är orättvist att man inte med våld ska få förändra demokratiska val. #jan6

Who are the masked agents?

He made a list of nearly 40 people who had been involved in his arrest or who had helped to search his home as part of the Jan. 6 investigation, targeting them for assassination, prosecutors said.

Even in a Justice Department that has often been pressed into serving Mr. Trump’s political agenda, the appointment of Mr. Wise to the weaponization task force was a remarkable development. His selection meant that a man who had urged violence against police officers was now responsible for the department’s official effort to exact revenge against those who had tried to hold the rioters accountable.

Zachary Jordan Alam, 33, of Centreville, was arrested May 9 after allegedly breaking into a home in Henrico County and stealing personal items, police said.
