None of these events, J6 or the transgender demonstration or the pro Palestinian protest or any other such events come anywhere close to an insurrection. They are made up of people with zero intent to overthrow the government. Legally or illegally, right or wrong, all were intended to influence the decisions the lawmakers make.‘Insurrection’ Sensationalism Suddenly Stops With Pro-Hamas Capitol Protesters
Newsweek perpetuates the media’s blatant double standard.16 Oct 2023 ~~ By Hudson Crozier‘Insurrection’ Sensationalism Suddenly Stops With Pro-Hamas Capitol Protesters - The American Spectator | USA News and PoliticsThe American Spectator | USA News and Politics

The establishment media have swooped in to defend pro-Palestinian protesters with an embarrassing double standard: Only Republicans are capable of an “insurrection.”
Over 300 anti-Israel demonstrators were arrested last week after swarming a congressional building to demand a cease-fire between Israel and Gaza. They chanted, blew a horn, fought police officers, and generally made fools of themselves, all in response to the now-debunked claim that Israel bombed a Gaza hospital.
This activity will be quickly excused and forgotten about, just like every other leftist tantrum at the U.S. Capitol since Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings. Yet we have been told for over two and a half years that the right-wing protest at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, was one of the darkest events in American history.
Why is that?
Newsweek is here to explain, though not in the way it means to.
“No, the pro-Palestinian Protest on Capitol Hill Was Not an ‘Insurrection,’” the outlet’s headline argued. Its article responded to “some Republicans” who used the Left’s favorite term for the Jan. 6 protest.
“The Merriam-Webster dictionary states that the legal definition of an insurrection is ‘the act or an instance of revolting especially violently against civil or political authority or against an established government,’” Newsweek lectured.
Among the hundreds of Donald Trump supporters who protested at the Capitol, only a handful violently broke in and caused the House and Senate to evacuate. Most arrived well after the disruption, and police are seen on video escorting and inviting them inside on the condition that they demonstrate peacefully. But every last selfie-taker or harmless grandma in the crowd was as evil as the rest of the “hundreds” who “broke into Congress,” according to Newsweek’s past coverage. Everything, down to alleged misdemeanors, constituted an “insurrection.”
Conservatives then labeled pro-Palestinian protesters “insurrectionists” based on the media’s loose definition. Newsweek says this is wrong because “the demonstrators did not break into the building, did not claim to want to interfere in a government proceeding, and did not destroy government property or threaten politicians.” Ironically, the outlet just explained why a great deal, if not most, of the Jan. 6 protesters were also not insurrectionists.
The Associated Press showed us the same goalpost-switching when transgender activists disrupted official proceedings at state capitols in April. When Trump supporters protested in Washington, the AP’s idea of an insurrection was as broad as possible: “an act or instance of revolting against civil authorities or an established government.” In response to the transgender mob, the AP conveniently raised the bar: The protesters were off the hook because there wasn’t “a coordinated attempt to overthrow government.”
Journalists know that words matter. That’s why they use a loaded term that makes it easier for society to demonize right-wingers as treasonous terrorists. It’s a weapon of psychological warfare. And as using it on last week’s Capitol invaders would be friendly fire, it remains noticeably absent from all mainstream coverage.
Commentary:
Kudos to Mr. Crozier the article deserves reading and will undoubtedly receive a ;ot of negative attention from our Progressive Democrat Socialists of America (ala CPUSA).
The fact is that it just wasn't the "AP", but regular Leftist news rags and Quisling Media that denied the facts and keep changing the goal posts.
You can plainly see that in how they are now protecting the universities using anti-semetic protests and justifying the Hamas savage attack on Israel in massacres that killed at least 1000 women and children and abducting the 200.
Because there wasn't any.So why was a single January 6th defendant not charged with insurrection?
Not much of an insurrection when their "leader" voluntarily leaves office.They were trying to keep Trump in office, which is treason.
His fascist dreams were dashed when our military told him to "Go Fish"! Probably why he absolutely hates General Milley.Not much of an insurrection when their "leader" voluntarily leaves office.
This is how stupid you are. You believe a few hundred unarmed civilians attempted to overthrow the most powerful military in the history of the planet,His fascist dreams were dashed when our military told him to "Go Fish"! Probably why he absolutely hates General Milley.

Thats a special kind of stupid, Stupid.
Milley would have pistol whipped Trump out the front door if he had not..Not much of an insurrection when their "leader" voluntarily leaves office.
Bless your heart.You think the Jan 6th riot was the only plot the Dirty Don was involved in? You are special.

Computing machines are much more reliable than humans in counting practically everything including ballots. Hacking a secure stand alone computer in a closed network is harder than you think including accessing so called backdoor access.I am far left, but I hate computers being used as voting machines, since they not only are easily hacked, but could also easily have built in backdoors.

Hamas was not justified in breaking the truce on Oct 7th. Israel exists because they whipped all those surrounding Arab Nations in 1948 and will continue to exist as long as they have a strong enough military.
