[With daddy’s help Hunter Biden has figured out how to collect on all of his international graft accounts – the sumbich has suddenly become a world renown artiste, ‘selling’ his paintings for up to $500K apiece. Daddy and his DoJ are making sure that the art connoisseurs don’t get fingered as their money gets laundered. It will be interesting to see if/how these ‘Paid in Full’ receipts are displayed. So, no matter how they are run, elections do have consequences. Or as Josif Vissarionovich observed, ‘It matters not for whom the votes are cast, only who counts them.’ gjr]

It’s a threatening gesture by an angry mob intend on stopping the election from fulfilling. Call it what you want. It was an insurrection by the definition I provided. Chants of Hang Pense were happening inside the Capital after the doors were smashed in. Are you in any way contending Pence was safe?

Okay George and others here’s a legal definition of insurrection. Show me how that does not apply to the attempted takeover of the House on Jan 6.
‘ 18 U.S. Code § 2383 – Rebellion or insurrection
Whoever incites, sets on foot, assists, or engages in any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof, or gives aid or comfort thereto, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

Paul, by the definition of most of the civilized world (and mine), it was not an insurrection. And your US Code quote is laughable. It in no way defines insurrection, but uses it as if its definition is known and given elsewhere. If you think that paragraph defines the term, then you are given to what is known as ‘circular definitions’. See if you can find out what these are, before you put your foot in it again.
And yes, VP Pence was more secure than any baseball umpire whose ‘demise’ the fans are shouting from the stands. Get a grip. It’s hard to believe that only the rabid faction of Dems truly believe that there occurred a government replacing insurrection that placed our congress critters in physical danger. It was political theater.

Interesting point Paul brings up about Mike Pense. While not proven (pure speculation, ok), the officer who shot the unarmed gal in the neck and dropped her dead may have been Pence’s bodyguard. Not in uniform, wearing a suit. That points to the Occam’s razor principle of being Secret Service, thus the name withheld (for National Security reasons alone). If it was a Capitol Police Officer who shot Ashley Babbitt, one would think the name would be released by now.
Yes, the Park Service, Capitol Police, and DC Metro all have plainclothes officers, but only the SS and Capitol Police would be guarding dignitaries inside the Capitol. Mike Pense was there inside that day, so it makes it clear that the SS was there guarding the VP. As mentioned before, it’s only speculation that the Secret Service detail assigned protect to Mike Pense was not only there, but fired the sole shot fired that day. Ashley Babbit did try to come through the broken glass just outside a Senate hearing room. Could be. Maybe, maybe not. If so, Imwould venture that Mike Pense was safe. 🙂
The US Capitol Police said at the time that the officer involved had been put on administrative leave.
DC Metro (who is in charge of investigating all homicides in DC, including Officer Brian Sicknick’s death) found there was insufficient evidence to charge the Capitol Police officer with wrongdoing.
So that is two references to a Capitol Police Officer as the shooter that day. Probably just pure speculation. Besides, Nancy is in charge of the Capitol Police and the Capitol. She refused requests to bring in the National Guard, FYI.
The US justice department said an investigation revealed “no evidence to establish beyond a reasonable doubt that the officer wilfully committed a violation”. But they did not say it was a Capitol Police Officer who was cleared of wrongdoing. 🙂
Either way, Mike Pense was well protected. Nobody was going to get close to him alive.

Georgia Speaker of the House David Ralston has released a letter he sent to Fulton Elections Director Richard Barron requesting the GBI to investigate the possibility of fraud in the 2020 election.
Speaker Ralston cited the mounting evidence in Fulton County as the reason for the investigation.
“Recently, media reports have surfaced which call into question the way in which Fulton County conducted, counted and audited the November 2020 Presidential Election. These reports have been accompanied by video and other evidence which is part of on-going litigation and requires thorough examination and explanation. Given the seriousness of this situation and the possible repercussions for our state and nation, it is time we have an independent investigation – once and for all – of the way in which Fulton County conducted, counted and audited the November 2020 Presidential Election,” he wrote.”
Seems the peaceful capital visit was justified?

Don’t knowI could have missed this one yesterday. Holy Smokes.
“We have already circled the ‘insurrection’ definition barn twice. Your definition is both lame and dysfunctional. It would define every act of crime from bank robbery to jay walking as an insurrection because they are “instances of revolting against civil authority or an established government.” Any act that can credibly called an insurrection has to minimally have had a plan to bring down an existing government and substitute a new government in waiting. None of this happened, and no one is even being charged with insurrection. Milling around or even rioting in a government building with no unified leadership or purpose is not an insurrection. This is lap three.”
Bonus: Two questions go down the rabbit…er…memory hole.
“So here are two other questions you won’t touch. Why has no one been charged and hundreds still being held in solitary six months after the event? Why won’t the feds release the killer capitol cop’s name along with 14,000 hours of security video that would show what really happened in the Capitol on 6 Jan?” —-Dr. Rebane
