That's classic.
He spoke the simple truth about the domestic extremists being investigated by the thousands across the nation. They are NOT all trumpists or Republicans. A large majority are RW, but not all. Some are LW extremists. Did Hartmann mention that? Straight to the trash. |

while pretending the choice wasn't between Democrats and Republicans during a critical national election. The different reasons they had don't even particularly matter, from the highest ideals to the wickedest plotting, when discussing them as a group, only that they did it and who they knowingly did it with.
Including RT agent Hartmann, who claimed to be progressive while knowing that Russia was using the progressive movement to destroy America by destroying liberal progressive government. Everyone knew it. Not cool at all.  |

The passage starts at 13:50:
LISTEN THIS TIME: He refers to this case in particular: https://www.reuters.com/legal/litigation/new-jersey-man-arrested-threatening-kill-federal-judge-2021-11-04/ 
Nov 4 (Reuters) - A New Jersey man has been arrested and charged with threatening to assault and murder a federal judge who was overseeing a lawsuit he had filed, including by telling one of his clerks that he would "put a bullet in the judge's brain." Federal prosecutors announced the charges against Jonathan Williams, 46, late Wednesday at a time of heightened concern for judges' safety after a disgruntled attorney last year shot and killed the son of U.S. District Judge Esther Salas in New Jersey and wounded her husband. That had nothing to do with political orientation. |

I believe it's referred to as confirmation bias.
I did not hear anything remotely similar to 'bothsiderism.' What I did hear was a man committed to following the facts and the law, someone who (along with his large legal team) will relentlessly pursue responsible parties at all levels involved in the January 6th insurrection/sedition, present or not. He was never going to tip his hand in an ongoing investigation. I was happy he expanded his comments to include serious voter suppression efforts. It was a good presentation. |
