After the January 6th attack on our nation’s capitol, the United States House Select Committee headed by a conservative Republican, was formed to investigate the insurrection. They found the following:
“After refusing to concede the 2020 U.S. presidential election and perpetuating false and disproven claims of widespread voter fraud, then-President Donald Trump summoned a mob of protesters to the Capitol as the electoral votes were being counted on January 6, 2021. During the House Committee’s subsequent investigation, people gave sworn testimony that Trump knew he lost the election.”
The Committee subpoenaed his testimony, identifying him as “the center of the first and only effort by any U.S. President to overturn an election and obstruct the peaceful transition of power.” He sued the committee and never testified.
The Committee interviewed over a thousand people and reviewed over a million documents.Some members of Trump’s inner circle cooperated, while others defied the committee.
The overwhelming preponderance of evidence and testimony, given by his followers, leaves absolutely no doubt that he is responsible for the attack on the capitol, the loss of lives and was the leader and instigator of the insurrection. However, the partisan courts and Republican congress members irresponsibly refused to bring him to trial prior to the upcoming election. They failed to uphold their oath to protect the Constitution and the rule of law.
Since both the House and Senate are controlled by the Republican Party, he cannot be impeached even if he shoots someone. Our judicial system is corrupt and has failed to uphold Trump’s day in court for his many crimes. To say Trump committed gross “high crimes and misdemeanors” is an obvious understatement.
Jeffrey Epstein said Trump was his closest friend for over ten years. Trump praised Epstein and said he was a “terrific guy.” Epstein told reporters Trump was a “horrible human being.” Imagine that, a child sex offender and child sex trafficker telling us that Trump was a “horrible human being.” Takes one to know one. And now our government is making him president. Welcome to American justice!

“ Silly January 06 nonsense “. I don’t think that I have heard it referred to quite that way before !!
WMA says
Bill,
Does it seem like a reasonable response to denigrate our legal system because you disagree with the unanimous verdict of a jury.
Linda says
I always thought that Jeffrey Epstein and Trump made a great pair.
Alan says
Trumps alleged “crimes” including the silly Jan 06 nonsense have been adjudicated by the American public.
WMA says
Don’t forget 34 felony counts adjudicated by a Constitutionally mandated judge and jury.
Alan says
See above
WMA says
Right back at ya!
Bill Cavanaugh says
Nobody gives a crap about your show trials Wayne. Maybe you missed the election results?
Essentially what your saying is you caught a Touchdown but lost 63-7.
WMA says
Show trials? Why do you have such contempt for the founding document of our nation?
Bill Cavanaugh says
No, I have contempt for people who abuse the founding document of our nation. The Self Serving, corrupt party you vehemently support is the one that has zero respect for our founding documents
Mark Snider says
Bill, you have not addressed the contents of the newspaper article, “Fact Check This”. In fact you didn’t fact check anything did you? For example did Trump know he lost the election after the votes were counted? Did you fact check the quotes given by Trump and Epstein?
Your comments indicate you are a MAGA cult member who doesn’t know how to tell the truth from lies or right from wrong and does not want to find out either.
