Means it has been so declared by Congress
It was an awards ceremony and, oh, BTW, the medals awarded will be inscribed with, “For Your Participation in the Insurrection™”

Means it has been so declared by Congress
An act of Congress has declared Jan 6 to be an insurrection
Eat that
It was an awards ceremony. Award ceremonies aren’t law.
Public Law 117 - 32 - An act to award four congressional gold medals to the United States Capitol Police and those who protected the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.
Here’s a clue, laws are not drafted to award medals.
You seem triggered
I bet anybody with any integrity would like to have their vote back.And the vote was overwhelming: unanimous in the Senate and 406-21 in the House.
The legal finding was part of a bill passed on August 5, 2021 authorizing Congressional Gold Medals for Capitol Police officers who had protected the Capitol during the insurrection.
Public Law 117-32
117th Congress
An Act
To award four congressional gold medals to the United States Capitol
Police and those who protected the U.S. Capitol on January 6,
2021.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. FINDINGS.
The Congress finds the following:
(1) Every day, the United States Capitol Police (``Capitol
Police'') protects the U.S. Capitol, Members of Congress,
congressional staff and institutional staff, journalists, and
the visiting public.
(2) On January 6, 2021, a mob of insurrectionists forced its
way into the U.S. Capitol building and congressional office
buildings and engaged in acts of vandalism, looting, and
violently attacked Capitol Police officers.
(3) The sacrifice of heroes including
Capitol Police Officers Brian Sicknick and Howard Liebengood,
Metropolitan Police Department Officer Jeffrey Smith, and those
who sustained injuries, and the courage of Capitol Police
Officer Eugene Goodman, exemplify the patriotism and the
commitment of Capitol Police officers, and those of other law
enforcement agencies, to risk their lives in service of our
country.
(4) Up to seven Americans died following this violent
attack, and more than 140 law enforcement officers suffered
physical injuries, including 15 officers who were hospitalized.
(5) The desecration of the U.S. Capitol, which is the temple
of our American Democracy, and the violence targeting Congress
are horrors that will forever stain our Nation's history.
(6) On April 2, 2021
Officer William ``Billy'' Evans was killed while protecting the
North Barricade of the Capitol. Officer Evans was a
distinguished member of the First Responders Unit and an
eighteen-year veteran of the United States Capitol
Police. Also injured in that assault
was Officer Kenneth Shaver. Officer Shaver is a fifteen-year
veteran of the United States Capitol Police.
So yes guys, it has been officially declared an insurrection.
Glad I could help.
You sound hopeful.And you seem like a faggot.
Seditious conspiracy.I bet anybody with any integrity would like to have their vote back.
1. It was not an insurrection. It was a riot.
2. Nobody died in the riot except for an unarmed Ashley Babbitt who was shot dead by a Capital police officer. Those who died after the fact were deemed to have died of natural causes.
. . ."There is reasoned debate about the number who died as a result of the Capitol riot. Ocasio-Cortez is including law enforcement officials who responded to the Capitol that day and committed suicide in the days and months afterward. None of them have been officially designated as “line of duty” deaths, though there is some congressional support for it.". . .
How Many Died as a Result of Capitol Riot? - FactCheck.org
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol resulted in "almost 10 dead." Four people died that day, and five others -- all law enforcement officers -- died days, weeks and even months later. Here we lay out what is publicly known about the circumstances surrounding those...www.factcheck.org
3. Not a single individual arrested in relation to that event has been charged with 'insurrection' including charges by those trying to destroy President Trump.
BwahahahahaDid you know that Congress has already determined, as a matter of law, that the Jan 6 Capitol attack was an insurrection?
If so then Congress is mistaken
I have. Now go play with your other little friends.Seditious conspiracy.
Look it up
Learn to read you disgusting POS. Insurrection is a felony. So where are the charges and convictions and why didn’t any of you lefturds pull this out when everything started? Because it’s bullshit and you know it. Another epic fail.LMAO!!
How did you arrive at this silly conclusion?
You did?I have. Now go play with your other little friends.
Which is NOT what you sheep have been bleating for 3 years now. Keep moving those goalposts as we continue to laugh at you. Wile E. Coyote has a better success record than you goofs have.Seditious conspiracy.
Look it up
So you made up your post, Huh, faggot?No thanks.
Which is NOT what you sheep have been bleating for 3 years now. Keep moving those goalposts as we continue to laugh at you. Wile E. Coyote has a better success record than you goofs have.
I don’t see “insurrection” in all that.And the vote was overwhelming: unanimous in the Senate and 406-21 in the House.
