They had shirts made.
Don’t let anyone gaslight you into thinking this was anything but a coup.
They literally built a gallows. Yet somehow say it was peaceful.
It’s still funny to me that Mike Pence thought he had any chance in hell of getting elected. His party’s base was chanting “hang Mike Pence” after building a gallows outside the building he was in, and his response was “I bet these people would vote for me.”
Those are words of endearment! Hang Mike Pence means you want to hang out with him and absolutely nothing else.
Boo-urns!
Can you believe these guys used to call themselves the party of law and order?
“Law and Order” has always been code for “use the police against minorities and labor movements”.
Yes, because the words of a conservative don’t mean anything. They don’t believe that what they say or do or fight for is good. They believe that they themselves are good, and therefore whatever they say or do is good. That’s conservativism, and it always has been.

That is not a surprise to anyone.
So pro-life they’re willing to kill for it
DOJ: Judge, we are requesting a sentence of 12 years for this defendant.
Judge: How does 17 months, with time served, sound?
I didn’t see this in the story. Do you have a source? I read that they agreed to not more than 120 months (10 years).
It’s not in the story, it’s a joke about how most of these J6 defendants have been getting really light sentences.
Early cooperators do…they have a lot to work through, and getting low hanging and low value fruit to roll on the orchestrators is important
I’m not sure making up headlines is helping fight the type of misinformation that emboldens J6 and Q Anon supporters
Who’s making up headlines? Are you too stupid to understand jokes? Fuck off.
A. I misread the headline of your post and thought it said that they did kill FBI agents, which made me believe that your comment saying “it’s a joke” was about you modifying the headline for satirical reasons, not a commentary on the US justice/legal system. Thank you for pointing out my error.
B. Holy shit. When people walk away from you irl because you called them stupid and told them to fuck off, do you tell yourself it’s because you won the argument because your tantrum was so compelling? I got a secret for you: people walk away because they find your reactions intolerable. Calm down there, bucko, not every interaction requires such an explosive response.
Have a good evening, I hope you get a moment to relax and think about at least 5 things in your life that bring you comfort and happiness. I appreciate your contributions even though I didn’t love your reply.
You are one of the people that make me glad I came to Lemmy. Please unfuck off and have a good evening.
Might be nice to actually make a joke. Where can one find it?
