[I suppose the one-sided discussion of Trump’s purported lies and lying will continue (Biden’s lies are off limits). Have any of the discussants considered what possible rewarding endpoints there are to such an ongoing debate that is now easily several years old?
In a 2024 Trump/Newsom contest, who would ever want to vote for a lying politician who has no other accomplishment besides always raising taxes and increasing regulations? gjr]

Either way George you can’t deny that Trump did nothing on Jan 6 to insure the safety or our elected Representatives but watch TV and tell the rioters that he loved them. Pence is the one who called in the National Guard not Trump.
““Not only did President Trump refuse to tell the mob to leave the Capitol, he placed no call to any element of the United States government to instruct that the Capitol be defended,” said Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., during the panel’s wide-ranging Thursday night hearing on the event.“He did not call his secretary of defense on Jan. 6. He did not talk to his Attorney General. He did not talk to the Department of Homeland Security,” Cheney added. “President Trump gave no order to deploy the National Guard that day. And he made no effort to work with the Department of Justice to coordinate and deploy law enforcement assets.”
The statements were backed up with testimony from Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Mark Milley, who said that Pence told Pentagon leaders to “get the Guard down here, put down this situation.”
The Guard waited more than three hours for approval to respond to Capitol riots, official says
The commanding general of the District of Columbia National Guard said he was frustrated by Pentagon leaders’ response to the Capitol attack.
In contrast, Milley said, Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows told Milley that military officials needed to “kill the narrative that the Vice President is making all the decisions” and worked against sending personnel to help with the escalating situation.

It will impossible to prove Trump himself did anything criminal on Jan. 6, as Punch-E Emery unwittingly continues to point out day in, day out. Trump telling folks to peacefully protest on Jan 6 was why Impeachment #2 utterly failed.
When you go to bed thinking about Trump and wake up thinking about Trump, and spend the hours in between thinking about Trump….you are not a free man. Punchy is imprisoned by that which he wishes to imprison. Caught in the very snare he set for Trump.
Someday science may find a cure for TDS, a debilitating mental, emotional, and spiritual serious affliction. Watching my fellow little pilgrim’s progressive progress is heart breaking. The ties that bind Trump to Punchy’s melon are stronger that any steel chain or law of gravity. And the saddest part is Trump as never spent one nanosecond thinking about Punch Emery.

Trumps debt increase 6.7 Trillion was over 4 years fish. Obama’s was 8.6 Trillion but that was over 8 years. Trump is far worse. I guess you don’t know how to read numbers. Remember Trump promised to eliminate national debt when he said :
Direct quotes from Trump:
On July 27, 2018, he told Sean Hannity of Fox News: “We have $21 trillion in debt. When this [the 2017 tax cut] really kicks in, we’ll start paying off that debt like it’s water.”
Nine days later, he tweeted, “Because of Tariffs we will be able to start paying down large amounts of the $21 trillion in debt that has been accumulated, much by the Obama Administration.”
Instead of paying down debt he increased it by nearly 7 trillion. One of hundreds of Trumps lies.

‘Man charged in connection with Jan. 6 assault on Officer Sicknick takes plea deal’
“The duo were set to go to trial in October, and a motions hearing had been scheduled before U.S. District Judge Thomas F. Hogan on Wednesday afternoon. Instead, Tanios pleaded guilty to a two-count superseding information that charged him with two misdemeanor counts: entering and remaining on restricted grounds and disorderly and disruptive conduct on restricted grounds.”
“The charges carry a maximum of one year in prison, but Tanios’ guideline range is zero to six months in prison, meaning he might not do additional time, given the five months he has served already.”
“Tanios, who was held in pretrial custody for five months, was released last August after an appeals court ruled his release would not present a danger to the public, citing the fact that he had “no past felony convictions, no ties to any extremist organizations, and no post-January 6 criminal behavior that would otherwise show him to pose a danger to the community.”
The Washington medical examiner ruled that Sicknick died of natural causes the day after the Jan. 6 riot after having suffered two strokes……..

This just in. Direct quotes from Russian State TV which no doubt reflects the views of Putin. they are IDENTICAL to the opinions expressed by the RR regulars including our host. They even refer to Trump as “Our Trump”
AS reported by Russian state TV host Evgeny Popov “The Department of Justice opened a criminal case against our own Donald Trump! They’re investigating Trump’s actions before the storming of the Capitol last January and his attempts to nullify the outcome of a fake, unfair, falsified U.S. presidential election.
They’re trying to pull it off by the midterms in order to put Trump behind bars by November,” he charged. “Otherwise, the Democrats have no chance of winning. So the Democrats have decided to eliminate their biggest competitor — our Trump.”
Popov then mocked President Joe Biden for suffering politically from the higher gas prices that surged in no small part thanks to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine earlier this year, and he said that Democrats don’t care about solving real problems, but only “about perverts, the sexual education of children and protections of the transgenders.”
