Frankly, I don't care who's in any government building if it's after hours, they don't have permits, etc. It's about time we take the rules seriously for anyone. No one gets a break. Ignorance of the law is no excuse. Knowledge of the law and do it anyway calls for more punishment. The biggest mistake was made when Ford pardoned Nixon.
My takeaway from that video was how they were treating it lol...basically having a Triumph The Insult Comic Dog puppet in the Capitol after hours as the equivalent to the Jan 6 riots.

Is he talking about those who are already in jail and those awaiting trial?...Because if so, how does this differ from the first time he supposedly promised pardons to those who took part in the "protests"? Cuz a lot of them were furious that Trump seemed to abandon them when all was said and done, and left them on their own. "But this time it's gonna be different...just get me back in office and you'll see!"

I don't think he felt threatened physically. The explanation was that he didn't trust that they wouldn't drive him away once he got in the car, which he did NOT want to do. That was the explanation from his chief counsel yesterday, who said Pence was determined to finish the certification on that day and did not want to have the world see the Vice President evacuating the Capitol in the face of a riot.
Say again? lol...I had to re-read those negatives several times...I think I get what you're saying? Are you saying The SS wanted Pence to get in the car but not to go anywhere, and Pece said to the guy who asked him to get in the car that if he were driving the car he'd get in--because he trusts the guy to not drive Pence away any way--but since he's not driving the car he thinks whoever IS driving the car will NOT stay there and will oh hell I give up lol...

My understanding is that the didn't get the car because he was worried about what Secret Service was going to do him, but because he wanted to stay on location to finish up the certification.
4 hours ago, Renegade7 said:Same, jus wanted additional clarification from Pence himself on that (and don't blame him if he was also concerned about that as well).
He should set the record straight himself in that one.
The last hearing had a witness also say that, when someone said to Pence that he would be safe if he got in the car, responded with something like “No offense, but you’re not the one driving the car.” It came across as if he didn’t know who to trust.

Considering the realities of what was happening that day and that Pence's assassination was indeed planned to occur--and the realities of what would have happened if he went along with what Trump wanted--painting Pence in anything other than a positive light would have diluted the seriousness of the events of January 6th. You can't both say the ramifications of Pence following Trump's orders would have been catastrophic while also saying Pence not following Trump's orders is no big deal, he was just doing his job. I get why they were emphasizing that Pence put "the Constitution above party" in that moment...or more specifically, put the Constitution above Donald Trump.Because portraying Pence as some sort of last line of defense isn't to prop up Pence as a hero, but to really underscore and illustrate how close the events of Jan 6th came to undoing our democracy...because the GOP machine has spent a year and a half downplaying those events as "legitimate political discourse" and a "Tourist visit", and are still doing so now.

Yeah, Pence hasn't been pounding his chest on doing the right thing. The video was more about someone doing the right thing and people patting him on the back for doing it. It's the people saying "He should be proud of what he did." No, he did WTF he was supposed to do.
Ah, ok...agree with you there.

That was a typo, I'm fixing it now : )
Yeah, I figured it out, but couldn't pass up the joke lol...
To your point, it would be phenomenal if Pence testified and was honest while doing so...then again, it was admitted by Proud Boy or an Oath Keeper that they were indeed going to kill Pence if they got to him, so...
The GOP needs their version of a Martin Luther King of sorts, someone to start a movement aimed at righting a wrong and being dedicated to it no matter what, and who can convince millions of conservatives to join the cauahahaHAHAHAHAHAHAAA 🤣...yeah, like that would ever happen lol.

No one understood your post and agree, jus stating why I believe that's happening and not to expect that to stay that way, especially if he runs for president.

He isn't even co-operating with the Jan 6 investigation to say anything though. He probably would play this up if threatened with jail time or running for president. Fine he isn't going from screen to screen biting Trump and risking losing his base even more...oh, yea...
He doesn't have to be in front of Congress to proclaim himself a hero. He already publicly stated Trump was dead wrong in saying he could have legally derailed the certification, and didn't need to be in a hearing to do so.
And you seem so hellbent on making sure Pence gets absolutely no credit for anything that you didn't even really understand the point of my post...which was to say that the Chris Rock clip actually doesn't apply to Pence, just the opposite in fact.

This Chris Rock video (NSFW) sums up my thoughts on Pence doing what he was supposed to do. He should have been more vocal about WTF was going on behind closed doors before January 6th. **** him.
Here's the thing about Pence and this Chris Rock clip: Pence is not out there calling himself a hero or anything. Other people might be, but he himself isn't on TV every other week extolling his actions as praiseworthy. In Rock's bit, Pence would be the man who stays out of jail and takes care of his kids without bragging about it.
My view on it all is kind of like the religious saying "Hate the sin, but love the sinner" except in reverse lol..."Hate the man, but loved his actions." Those actions deserve praise in my eyes. The man/politician himself...not so much.

I legit hate agreeing with you but this is correct unfortunately. It’s let them change their mind or watch them keep playing this ****ing game until we all lose something else.
It’s kinda the point. We win if they change their mind. It can’t a zero sum game for us.
That said **** Mike Pence. He showed more character than I thought he was capable of on the 6th and for that we should all thank him. But **** Mike Pence.
Whether we believe it or not, Jan 6th changed some Republican leaders' minds. Wouldn't surprise me if Pence was one of them.

Holy ****, this former judge does realize 2024 is only a year and a half away, right? Kind of pointless to still be in the middle of the warning when the election happens.
Spit it out, man!~Dang!

Ann Coulter just going off on Trump and the "2000 Mules" movie lol...she's still a gigantic douche, make no mistake. But I do enjoy it when someone other than liberals say this ****.

Dinesh's Stupid Movie
Every time you think you have your arms fully around Trump's con, you realize it's unfathomably more cynical and far-reaching than you could have imagined.
Is there anyone in Trump World who isn't trying fleece to the Deplorables? Haven't they suffered enough?
Which brings me to Dinesh D'Souza's movie "2,000 Mules." The movie tells Trump diehards (a dwindling crowd) that their man probably DID win the 2020 election!
Using cellphone tracking data obtained by "True the Vote" (which sounds like a group named by Melania Trump -- "BE BEST!") D'Souza claims to have proof that 2,000 people delivered multiple ballots to election drop boxes in the five crucial battleground states that Trump lost.
There are two problems with this.
First, the movie doesn't show what it says it shows.
-- Cellphone tracking isn't precise enough to distinguish between liberal activists stuffing drop boxes, and store owners, police officers, delivery men and others who have perfectly legitimate reasons to be within a few yards of the same drop box every day.
-- In all five battleground states D'Souza considers, it is perfectly legal for third parties to drop off ballots for others, with varying degrees of lenience. Pennsylvania, for example, allows a grandparent, grandchild, uncle, aunt, niece, nephew, in-law, household member, caregiver or jailer to drop off someone else's ballot.
-- Even if every cellphone dot represented a left-wing organizer illegally dropping off another person's ballot, that still wouldn't make the ballot invalid. A legal ballot can be illegally delivered, although the guy who delivered it might be in trouble.
These flaws have already been well aired elsewhere.
The second problem -- my problem with the movie -- is the idea that Trump's 2020 loss cries out for an explanation. We know for a fact that Trump was wildly popular, sailing to a landslide election on the love of a grateful nation. Only something nefarious could explain his defeat!
Hello? Trump lost only one demographic in 2020 compared to 2016. What was that demographic? ...
Answer: WHITE MEN!
How did liberal activists pull off that?
In the five states where D'Souza deploys his hocus-pocus cellphone data -- Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin -- Trump lost 8% of white voters compared to 2016. He lost 12% of white men.

The one on the left certainly is. The one on the right has a very different profile. Plus the hair looks the same, it's streaked and she isn't streaking her hair now so it's all dark. Does Boebert being on a website trolling for sugar daddies so different than her husband showing his penis to underage females?

The difference is the religious “kill all gays and jail all parents of trans kids, let me control who you have sex with” zealots are actually running for office (and have allies already in place).
