Tuberville and RAGA Now Directly Implicated in Trump's Coup

On January 5, 2021, the night before the deadly insurrection at the US Capitol Building, an elite meeting supposedly took place at the private residence of the president at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, DC, just blocks away from the White House.

It was all relayed on the social media account of Charles W. Herbster, a wealthy ranch owner from Falls City, Nebraska, who once ran a failed campaign for governor of the state in 2013, and has just filed paperwork to run again in 2022. Herbster, a long-time fixture in midwestern conservative politics, also served as Trump’s National Chairman of the Agriculture and Rural Advisory Committee at the time of the post.

Herbster documented the clandestine affair that night in a Facebook post, which was first reported by Seth Abramson, and provided an exact list of attendees, as if he were detailing a twisted version of another American Revolution. Charles Herbster listed a group of insiders that could easily be considered the crème de la crème of Trump collaborators — now possibly accomplices:

“Right now, I stand in the private residence of the President at Trump International with the following patriots who are joining me in a battle for justice and truth:

U. S. Senator Tommy Tuberville, Alabama; Mr. Donald Trump, Jr.; Mr. Peter Navarro, Assistant to President Donald J. Trump, Director of Trade and Manufacturing Policy, and the National Defense Production Act Policy Coordinator; Mr. Eric Trump; Mr. Adam Piper, Executive Director Republican Attorney General Association; Mr. David Bossie, President and Chairman of Citizens United and Deputy Campaign Manager of the 2016 Donald J. Trump Presidential Campaign; Mr. Corey Lewandowski, Manager of the 2016 Donald J. Trump Presidential Campaign; and General Michael Flynn, 25th United States National Security Advisor.”

1. Start there

in forming an Impeachment witness list.

[PatSeg]

8. Yes, witnesses handed to them on a silver platter

How convenient!

[Sanity Claws]

2. RAGA Republican Attorney General Association

Any AG who supported the insurrection should be removed from office and lose his/her law license. They obviously don't believe in the rule of law and should not be a part of the legal system.

[suegeo]

17. Doug Peterson, Atty Gen. of Nebraska also plotted

Other Nebraskans involved in the coup include:

On Jan. 5, Doug Peterson, the GOP Atty General of Nebraska, put out robocalls that urged Trump supporters to march to the capitol. So, yeah, RAGA.

and

Brandon Straka, the jackass who started the walkaway campaign. Straka was arrested for fucking around & finding out, Jan. 6, 2021

[Moostache]

45. Probably alone here...but I saw "Straka" and immediately thought of "Stracci"...

And THAT led me to picturing these GOP weasels as conspirators in "The Godfather" against Michael Corelone...

Too bad these guilty as fuck turds won't face the same kind of ending...have to hope that the wheels of justice grind them to the dust they should be.

[Maeve]

31. Thank you--I keep thinking "Rage Against Government Again"?

Altho that sorta fits, too...

[BobTheSubgenius]

48. An argument could be made on behalf of any one or more of those AG's.

It is possible that any of them could claim they attended the meeting without knowing what the specific agenda was. Of course, it will take an awful lot of evidence to support that claim, and a record of said AG(s) leaving early must be available. ie: as soon as the agenda was revealed.

I know, it's an outside chance at best, but maybe not everyone there knew what they had gotten themselves into.

[gohuskies]

3. Conspiracists who all need to be indicted for insurrection

Talk about the Gang Who Couldn't Shoot Straight... This is huge if true and this has to be investigated to the bitter end.

[magicarpet]

4. The Fascist Pied Pipers of governmental overthrow and insurrection.

[Blue Owl]

5. Hopefully soon they'll be the Tied Tubers of overthrow and insurrection

LOCK 'EM UP!

[malaise]

6. All should be heading for prison

Rec - more evidence is great news

[BSdetect]

52. Prison somewhere special in lieu of death penalty for treason

This was a conspiracy of epic proportions.

All we need now is an audio/video of their conspiracy

[PatSeg]

7. Holy crap!!!

I can't believe how stupid these people are. Did Herbster actually think that posts on Facebook were private or that no one would notice? These people who post incriminating things on social media blow my mind. You expect it from a 15 year old kid, but you'd think adults would know better. He even listed the names and titles of the "patriots" who attended the meeting! Nice attention to detail which I'm sure the FBI and congress appreciates.

I suppose what is even more disturbing is that so many of these people advertise their illegal activities, because they honestly think there is nothing wrong with what they did and that there will be no consequences. Their arrogance is surpassed only by their stupidity.

It is terrifying to imagine what would have happened if these people were actually competent.

[bucolic_frolic]

12. Perhaps he posted it because

he was certain of its success and that all would be pardoned. That how advanced, and how much, planning had been put into the effort. There must, by this logic, be far more to come.

[PatSeg]

15. Yes, I think you're right

We saw so much of that attitude in DC on the 6th. People not only didn't try to disguise their identity, they advertised who they were and what they were doing on social media. "Hey, my president gave me permission, so I'm okay." If this was a movie, it would be a farce or over-the-top satire.

[ToxMarz]

19. If they had succeeded in overthrowing the government and seizing power

they wouldn't need pardons

[bucolic_frolic]

34. You're right.

They'd only do it to own the libs!

[Lonestarblue]

22. There may also be an element of wealthy white privilege.

Many of these people, especially the Trumps, have gotten away with white collar crimes their whole lives. Why should they expect to be held accountable for anything now?

[PatSeg]

26. That is especially true for Trump

and he undoubtedly conveyed that sense of invulnerability to his sea of followers. "If the president is unafraid of consequences, why should we be?" In their twisted little brains, they want to be able to do and say whatever they want just like their leader, who has pretty told them they can.

[Cozmo]

37. Yes, yes, yes! Is this scary or what?

[BobTheSubgenius]

50. I think exactly that. I would posit, though, that he probably didn't think there was anything wrong.

While it may seem unfathomable that an AG could not know the law, maybe he believed in the Magic Article Two mojo. He wouldn't be the only one.

[housecat]

20. "Their arrogance is surpassed only by their stupidity"

That's it in a nutshell. Good one.

[Roc2020]

35. Indeed!

[Blue_playwright]

29. My 13-year-old is smarter than they are online.

[PatSeg]

40. Thank goodness

I am blown away by highly educated people who send compromising photos on their smartphones, sometimes even to total strangers. Careers and marriages have been destroyed by such stupid carelessness. For some, I think it is addictive. Look at all Anthony Weiner threw away because of his compulsive behavior. He got a 2nd and 3rd chance and he still couldn't (wouldn't?) stop.

[BobTheSubgenius]

51. Faint praise for your 13-year-old!

Without even the 30 more years of life experience she will accrue and with just the common sense they lack...

[2naSalit]

9. The next few weeks will be very interesting to watch.

[bucolic_frolic]

10. Pinch me!

It's a Royal Flush.

[ffr]

11. Nothing organic about planning out an siditious insurrection from within.

Traitors!

[lonely bird]

13. Herbster wouldn't recognize Justice and Truth...

If they walked up and kicked him in the balls.

[HuskyOffset]

23. That, sir or ma'am, is . . .

. . . an unproven hypothesis. We need to test it. Who has their Justice & Truth boots on?

[lonely bird]

32. No argument!

I will get my size 13 boots with steel toes. That should be reasonably effective.

[lastlib]

43. next challenge is to find the aforesaid balls.......

might require high-power magnifying implements.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

14. The insurrectionists assumed they would be successful in overthrowing the government.

[PufPuf23]

16. If the attempted coup was most nations in the course of history,

the conspirators would be killed by firing squad or hanging, only in the more civilized nations with a trial.

IMO they all have earned life sentences. Hope they end up prosecuted with extreme prejudice.

Really disgusting how the GOP and much of media is minimizing the actions in the aftermath.

These folks should be shitting in their boots but most seem to think they are going to skate.

[Midnight Writer]

18. Can Flynn be stripped of his military rank? It irks me to see him called General Flynn.

He trades on his title to make money and exploits the respect it denotes.

At the same time he is a traitor plotting against our Country.

Doesn't seem right.

[RussellCattle]

24. The idea that he can be referred to as "The 25th U.S. National Security Advisor" like some.....

......real cabinet member just has to that arrogant prick's own idea.

[Ford_Prefect]

39. The Pentagon can recall him to service and court-marshal him. That would change his rank and status

legally and remove his privileges including his pension.

This has been done before and the legal precedents support it.

[Nitram]

21. So kind of the treasonous plotters to leave a paper trail for us to follow. This will go down in

history as A Conspiracy of Dunces.

[EndlessWire]

25. The problem is

that there is nothing reported that indicates seditious talk. What did they actually do? What did they say? Obviously, they gathered for a reason. Maybe Trump wanted to rehearse his speech. But, what was reported beyond that they met the day before?

I followed the link, but there is nothing there.

[LudwigPastorius]

28. Exactly.

This is evidence of a meeting, but it is not evidence of them discussing an attack on the Capitol building.

I'm not saying it didn't happen, only that you need more to indict and prosecute them.

[EndlessWire]

30. I agree. n/t

[theneworiginal]

33. Until they start arresting Underbosses and getting them to roll on the rest,

it'll just be speculation. They need to drop some heat on the real organizers, not just the Bozo's who think they are.

[EndlessWire]

42. I think it was a failed coup

American style. I think a smaller group had plans, and that the call for individuals to show up was just cover for the main group. Most of those thousands of people who rolled out probably thought they were just going to property destruct, raise some hell, and motor on home, laughing all the way. And, then look what happened.

But, you have to have something to hang your hat on. Like Trump's speech to rile them up. Like the "see you in Washington" remark. Like, the memo that held off the Guard. Like, the Trumps watching on TV and enjoying it, doing nothing. Like, Trump threatening the GA SoS with retribution if he didn't cheat.

You have to have evidence that has foundation. This isn't enough. It probably was a war council -- but, prove it. Let's get one of the attendees to roll over, with something leveraged that we can't see.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

36. Not sure how just that they met is what we need. They can

Make up anything! This was the last ditch effort to not certify.

[lastlib]

44. I'm sure it was about adoption........

Wasn't that the subject with Natalya (2016)?

[EndlessWire]

49. Oh, yes! I remember that! n/t

[ancianita]

54. So "joining me in a battle for justice and truth" wasn't probable cause for the FBI's investigation?

Just sayin' maybe there's more coming. We might be seeing the drip drip of media in days ahead.

[EndlessWire]

55. No, it's not.

We all engaged in battles for truth and justice. We need an actual plan that they met to discuss. And, even if we think we know what it was, we need more proof.

[ancianita]

56. Got it. Maybe the FBI, with probable cause, found that evidence. We'll see.

[EndlessWire]

57. It's possible.

Or maybe Seth will get it. Stay tuned!

[NCjack]

27. Tubie came to DC and immediately got his member caught in the wringer.

Looks like he is replacing Johnson as the dumbest Senator.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

38. Lol. You can almost hear trump's words when Tubie ran... I'll

back you, but you'll have to help me later. And new to DC, probably impressed the hell out of him to be included.

[patphil]

41. It's interesting that Rudi's message to Tuberville didn't express concern about the deaths.

Or even the "Hang Pence" chants. He talks as if what went on was just part of the plan, and how Tuberville needed to continue with the plan to disrupt and delay the vote. I wonder what else was planned that didn't happen when the vote went through in the early morning hours of Thursday, the 7th.
There was obvious evidence of a conspiracy to defraud the election present in Rudi's call. So, the meeting on the 5th becomes the focal point for the FBI to investigate the true size and scope of the conspiracy.
The riot and attack on the Capitol definitely appears to have been planned. It just didn't get the job done. I guess when the Congressmen and Vice-President Pence realized what danger they were in, they got a little bit angry and decided to end all this shit.
Democracy worked despite Trump and his co-conspirators attempts to tear the Republic down.
We can only thank Rudi's bumbling ineptitude for providing the smoking gun.

[world wide wally]

46. Hopefully, they will get their day in court soon

[VA_Jill]

47. Tuberville is a pawn

I submit that he is too fcuking stupid to know he was being used or have any idea what he was doing. Not that either thing makes him less guilty.

[NHvet]

53. No, No.... you have it all wrong

They were just meeting to discuss adoptions.

[druidity33]

58. This was shot down as a nothing-burger here on DU...

because it was Seth Abramsom who first reported it. Just sayin'...
