Liz Cheney, "Trump appears to have been 'personally involved in planning and execution of Jan 6 ....

[Botany]

insurrection."

No shit. Trump:

Helped to pay for it.

Gave out over a dozen invitations to the violence in which he gave the day, the date, the time, and the place.

Had his chief of staff Nick Mulvaney's niece fill out the paper work for the permit for his pre-riot pep talk.

Told the crowd to go and storm the Capitol so as to protect America's freedoms.

Fired Sec. of Defense Mark Esper and installed Christopher Miller who gave stand down orders to the D.C.
National Guard on 1/4/21.

Refused to call of his supporters when asked to do so from Rep. McCarthy and V.P. Pence.

Watched the violence and chaos on T.V. and did nothing.

Knew of planning sessions for the violence in 2 different D.C. Hotels.

And at the end of the day let the violent thugs walk away and told them that he loved them and was
proud of them. President Trump’s Chilling Message to Violent Mob Overtaking Capitol: "Go Home. We Love You, You’re
Very Special."

*********

What Trump was looking for on 1/6/21 was to have so much violence up to and including the muder
of Speaker Pelosi & Vice President Pence so he could declare martial law and stop the Constitutionally
mandated transfer of power.

[FalloutShelter]

1. Exactly!

Lock him up!

[Walleye]

2. I really hate to see what his plan looked like in his fevered imagination

I think he would’ve been delighted to see a couple of assassinations. We need to subpoena Trump to testify

[Botany]

4. Trump is on tape telling Georgia's Sec. of State's lawyer something like; "Big things will be ....

.... happening on Jan. 6th.

[Walleye]

7. Mob bosses speak in that kind of code, too, and we managed to convict them all the time

Any Muslim terror attack is called Isis inspired or something. This is the best example of politically inspired violence I’ve seen in decades. We haven’t all gotten as stupid as he is all of a sudden.Lock him the fuck up

[Nikki28]

3. unpopular Opinion

but I wish Liz was a democrat because she would be a fire cracker.

[Walleye]

8. Seems to me like she's pretty smart, savvy, sets her apart from other GOP

She has that sort of genetic republicanism that is for life unfortunately

[empedocles]

13. Liz gets more anti-trump in the news because she is a republican

[70sEraVet]

14. In a couple of years, every Republican politician will be anxiously telling reporters

that they were secretly on her side all along, that they never did trust Trump.

[Walleye]

16. I would say that is an accurate prophecy

[lagomorph777]

25. In a couple of years, there will be no Republican politicians.

Or there will be ONLY Republican politicians.

[lastlib]

18. On every other issue of importance, she is as right-wing as they come.....

Votes w/ tRump & right-wing over 90% of the time. No. We don't want her.

She's only better-looking than her dad--but just as mean and rotten at the core.

[stopdiggin]

33. correct. this person's 'policy' positions

are quite far right (as others have pointed out). The idea that she would ever find a home within the Democratic ranks - is frankly laughable.
----- --- --- -----

[ShazamIam]

29. Being Darth Vader's daughter helps a lot with that power thing, I mean politically of course.

[SKKY]

5. Man, one thing I will say about Liz Cheney...

...She sure does have a firm grasp on the obvious.

[BlueSky3]

21. 😊

Yes indeed.

[spanone]

6. K&R...

[mvd]

9. Huge K&R

I have always thought this to be the case. Glad it is being said! He can’t escape prison for this.

[kentuck]

10. I think she was trying to send a message to her constituency in Wyoming...

...and her Republican colleagues in the House.

They don't like what she is telling them.

[Botany]

11. She is gonna rub the truth about TFG in their faces and they are will have to take it.

Lots of the MAGA people are too far gone but I expect when exposed to the truth about 1/6/21 and
TFG & Russia he will see a real drop in his support. But then again I am holding out to see the mother
fucker in jail for his multiple crimes.

[ancianita]

15. Right. She ought to be credited by smart Republicans for this 'tough love' approach.

Cheney's is the only way her party is going to get control of their 6th grade cultosis symptoms, regain their moral compass, commit to truth and reality, and become the viable, credible participant in democratic governance they once were back in pre-Bush days. When 2022 brings in their retiree replacements, we'll see if they're more of the performative ilk or more like Cheney.

[Mopar151]

31. The purge of the worst Trump cadre is inevitable.

Liz knows what a vile lot they are, and sees 0 downside in throwing them away.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

12. Of course Trump was in on the planning.

Someone that determined to stay in power would go through any lengths to achieve such a feat. Of course he KNEW EVERYTHING that was going on on his behalf.

[Justice matters.]

17. But... but... but... Justice is slow...

The Bank was robbed live on TV but the robber is white (with orange make up) and still at large.

[monkeyman1]

19. every one of insurrection people acted on a promise that they would get a pardon !

how's that working out for ya's ?

[stopdiggin]

34. that statement requires some explanation

or (alternatively) some backup.

[LisaM]

20. He had a freaking tailgate party going.

Of all the unseemly things about that day - and there were many - that GameDay-style tailgate party they had going on was near the top. I know people who tailgate. It takes lots of planning. Invitations go out. Lists of who can get in are created. They set up TVs in the tents. ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ ✔️

[Lonestarblue]

22. I suspect that Dick Cheney is far wealthier than TFG and still has some power with Republicans.

The Cheney family versus the Trump family. I hope the Cheneys are spending some of their wealth to put Trump out of business.

[SayItLoud]

23. 5 Words out of TFG's mob mouth to Georgia officials:

LEAVE

THE

REST

TO

ME !

[lagomorph777]

24. Well, it's a good thing DOJ is keeping its powder dry.

With such slim evidence, it would be crazy to risk investigating or prosecuting this guy.

[Mr. Ected]

26. Gee, when you put it THAT way....

You gotta wonder why the MEDIA doesn't put it that way.

Does anyone doubt that if this had been Barack Obama or Joe Biden whether the media would report it THAT way?

[Rhiannon12866]

32. That's the thing, no other former POTUS has ever contested an election

They go on to build libraries and start foundations to help people - or work to ensure fair elections in developing countries and build houses to help poor families, that kind of thing...

[Cha]

27. Of course trump's big bloated

mouth was the head Terrorist.. like his dumbass wife was going to ask them to stop.

Ashli Bobbit's family can thank trump for her death.. he's responsible for all of it.

Send him to Prison.

[triron]

28. She needs to have a nice talk with AG Garland

[lindysalsagal]

30. If the gop were gonna dump together, this is what it would look like.

And it's high time.

[bucolic_frolic]

35. The insurrection was made to appear to be a popular uprising

but was orchestrated by a leader and a cadre, as insurrections always are. As violent as it was, and the chaos it created, even with the stand down orders, these could not finish the job. The shock troops were incompetent or insufficient. He thought politics and loyalty to him would carry the day. System and tradition and loyalty to the Constitution had other ideas.
