1. I started reading that and closed the link after reading just a bit of the first profile.

I don’t need to read how these are just normal people just caught up in a moment. I stopped reading when the guy in the first profile defended being a white supremacist because he was proud of being white and black people are racists too when they support Black Lives Matter.

CNN needs to stop whitewashing these people and giving a platform to Republicans treating a violent insurrection as a tourist visit to the Capitol.

15. It seems like a repeat...

of the way the media went out searching for the lunatic chump voter and tried to jam that down our throats. I'm sick and tired of hearing the excuses and lies these wingnuts have to tell themselves to support their quackery.

7. On Fox they are just lying about what happened. CNN's show last night contradicts those

lies by what they showed on video, even though few Fox watchers are likely to watch CNN's feature.

The CNN production showed actual footage of the act being committed by the right wing asshole that committed it, followed by the same right wing asshole then lying about it when confronted with it. I don't think what CNN showed is particularly helpful to the right wing assholes.

3. we have seen a lot of press on the Members that were terrorized, the staff was too, even more so.

Not only Member office and leadership staff, but Cafeteria Workers, Janitorial Staff, support staff all in harms was as these terrorists/insurrectionists who were running around the building looking for people to harm.

6. That's the book

That I want to read. I really don't give a damn about any Republican big shots who were scared.

4. One unfortunate by-product of justice being a slow-grinding wheel

Is that it affords the criminals more than enough time to muddy the waters about their offenses before a jury can be struck.

5. Did CNN at least that some of the insurrectionists were "no angels"?

I'm going to guess that's a hard "No."

9. Why?

Why can't people put something in the title of their post that gives you some idea what the post is about?

10. This!

[dajoki]

13. What would you suggest?

[MissMillie]

16. How about ...

"CNN studies the insurrectionist without debunking their claims"

[dajoki]

17. That's fair n/t

11. The autocratic alliance of religion, media, big bucks and the GOP....

...depends on misinformation, vilification of the Democratic Party, and an assist from super-autocrat Vladimir Putin. Sadly Schumer and Manchin won't fight it for most likely monetary reasons.

That's what I glean from all the BS in our politics.

12. This is why we can't have nice things. When will it end? nt

14. As usual, the media struggles to humanize white criminals, while buying into the

dehumanizatioin and criminalization of Black victims.
