January 6 Was Not A Coup

[Harpy Eagle]

That wasn't what I said, stop trying to be slick.

Look at those timeline graphs of when Biden's vote count went up just when he needed it.

Yep, it is called counting mail in ballots, you know those ballots your beloved party and god told everyone not to use.

 

[Lesh]

It was a general point on a general position.

Do you agree women can't have penises, yes or no?

I "agree" you seem to have lost the thread topic

The same mail in ballots mailed to everyone due to COVID, and probably harvested by Dem operatives?

Bottom line, there was no insurrection, no coup, or attempted coup….Just a relatively small group of idiots that broke the law, like Colberts group…Difference is, Colberts group got to go home the next morning…

Your post is now the top contender for the 2022 Gaslight of the Year Award.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

False!

So, you are saying that Trump was not in charge of his Admin, that he was just a figurehead? is that correct?

 

[jc456]

Who you trying to convince. We all will hear the evidence from the hearings.

I'm going to wait till all the facts are in.

The fact that you are trying to defend something that all the facts haven't been presented yet tells me you are trying to set expectations.

Liz Cheney seems to disagree with you in her opening statement and she isn't dumb.

The funny thing in this post is that you actually believe this and that something from this will happen. hahahahahahahahahaahaha

Here are the states that mailed ballots to everyone due to COVID....in which of these did you see a big jump in Biden votes?

California (permanent)

Colorado (permanent)

Hawaii (permanent)

Nevada (permanent)

New Jersey (temporary)

Oregon (permanent)

Utah (permanent)

Vermont (permanent)

Washington state (permanent)

Fine, "requested due to COVID" which still could be far easier abused than requiring in person voting.

It was a FAILED coup.

It was a FAILED coup.

For something to fail it has to have a means of success, and this whatever it was didn't.

Moving goal post is never a good look...especially when you will have to move them again.

Tell me how this is easy to abuse...

I requested a mail-in ballot using personal information that only me or a ID thief would have. That ballot was mailed to my address on file with my voter registration. Once it came I filled it out and signed the envelope and sent it back. The ballot had an ID number known only to me and I could track it from post office to election office to processing to being counted. If the signature did not match they contacted you via Email you supplied when you requested your ballot and you had till election day to prove it was you.

You are simply arguing failure. "The coup failed therefore no coup." And that is just....

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

*cough* Excuse me. As I was saying, that is not how it works.

 

[Woodznutz]

Just because it was stupid and unsuccessful does not mean it was not intended to somehow keep Trump as president.

A valiant effort by true patriots.

The first thing your quoted text did was to apply a condition to the term, that isn't necessarily there. There is no concrete definition or international governing body to stamp something as a coup or a not-a-coup, so opinions will vary, but most of the places I've ever seen the term 'coup' used, it refers to a sudden, violent, and illegal attempt to overthrow the government (which January 6 was, all three). Establishing that it needed a path to success strikes me as someone deliberately adding a requirement to a term that isn't there, so that his people don't fit it.

On the other hand, all that shows is that the guy is a biased writer using an obvious trick; it doesn't make it automatically a coup. Most of the coups in the world today occur in developing nations and involve the military, but they can and do also happen at the hands of bands of rebels or other non-military mobs, which describes the January 6 crowd. It is often applied also in a legal sense, in which case it doesn't need to involve violence at all; forging the President's name on a document removing him from power, for example, could be considered an attempted coup.

I think the last requirement (besides sudden, violent, and illegal) is that of intent. If the goal was to smash the art or burn the place down, I would call that a violent demonstration. If their goal was to disrupt or hinder democratic processes, I would call that sedition or insurrection (and we are know finding out that apparently prosecuting attorneys agree with me). If their goal was to replace or overthrow, though, I would call that a coup attempt.

From the many, many pieces of evidence I've seen or read of January 6, a lot of people were there to demonstrate and party on the National Mall, others were there to shout at the leadership, still others were there to basically thrill-ride through the Capitol building. The leadership and most aggressive forces, though, were there to replace or overthrow the results of a legal election, and that, to me, makes it an unsuccessful but armed coup attempt.

 

[Stryder50]

Nope. Chaz was six blocks of a dumb protest.

January 6 was an attack on our democracy because one man-child couldn't accept he lost an election.

CHAZ/CHOP was the Seattle version of events happening in several cities during the Summer of 2020. Included riots, looting, arsons, assaults (and deaths/murders), attacks on Federal and local government buildings with damage to same along with occupation of same. Illegal p[ossesion of public and private property.

CHAZ = Capital Hill Autonomous Zone, i.e. internal domestic insurrection declaring itself as a separate state within the USA.

Either you are grossly ignorant or are complicit with the Leftist~Socialist~Communist agenda to overturn our Constitution and Legal Governments.

Your "man-child" and many others in this nation, not all at just D.C., question the legality, ethics, and results of that election.

 

[Stryder50]

Wait. Wait. Aren't you Mr. Libertarian who thinks government is bad? CHAZ/CHOP was the LIBERTARIAN DREAM!!! You should be proud of it.

CHAZ/CHOP and it's variations in several other cities during that Summer of 2020 was an anarchist, AntiFa, socialist/communist "DREAM!!!" and attempt to stir insurrection and overthrow a residing POTUS.

yeah, people are going to be harvesting tens of thousands of votes this way!

Defending America

EXCLUSIVE: Jan. 6 Prisoner Issues Warning to Americans Over Televised Committee Hearing​

'Tonight, they're going to scream their lie loudly and often, with much Hollywood drama. They hope you will buy it as truth. Do not be deceived.'
...

Ahead of the first of six televised House committee hearings related to the protests that took place at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., on Jan. 6, 2021, a Jan. 6 prisoner has issued a warning to the American people regarding the “farce” they’re about to witness.

On the evening of June 8, The Epoch Times received an audio recording from Jeremy Brown in which he addresses the American people. The transcript of the recording can be found here.

“I am coming to you today on the 253rd day of my illegal, unconstitutional imprisonment to advise and warn the American people that what you are about to see is part of this compromised government’s well-orchestrated, highly produced lie, meant to target the minds and perception of the uninformed and misinformed masses with the intent to demonize and dehumanize their opposition,” Brown begins.

“Their opponents are anyone who disagrees or even asks questions about their false authority and their anti-American and anti-liberty agenda.

“Their goal is to take down America and ‘Build Back Better’ in a form suitable to their authoritarian utopia dreamland, also known as the Great Reset.”

Brown is a 20-year United States Special Services Master Sergeant and combat veteran. Brown is also a candidate for the Florida House of Representatives, District 62, running for the seat from his jail cell. As a self-described “January 6 political prisoner of war,” Brown is currently being held in the Pinellas County Jail in Clearwater, Florida, where he is awaiting trial for two misdemeanor charges related to the Jan. 6 protest: entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds and disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds.
...
However, Brown says he’s being held not because of what the government claims he did, but because the FBI and Department of Justice are aware that he knows the truth about what they did. In an alleged effort to keep him from exposing that truth, they have denied him access to any evidence in his case for over eight months. He also reminds Americans that the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force already attempted to recruit him “to be part of their fraud.”

“But I turned them down,” he said, noting that he even recorded the encounter in order to expose them, and it was after that recording got out that they had him arrested “and planted evidence” in order to keep him incarcerated.

In an open letter titled “Don’t Do Nothing,” exposed in an exclusive story by The Epoch Times on April 13, Brown outlined how the government is trying to take control over the American people through intimidation and fear and to silence those who dare to take a stand. The entire letter is available here. The actual recording of the agents attempting to recruit Brown is available at the Gateway Pundit and at JeremyBrownDefense.com.

“They’ve had me locked away for 253 days in hopes of shutting me up,” Brown insisted, saying that would never happen “because they are sloppy.”

Would seem some in the Federal Government, elected and appointed officials, DOJ, and assorted "Deep State" are not willing to abide by the Constitution and Laws of our Nation.
This would seem to be the real coup.

When there are reports of more ballots being returned than sent out, one has to wonder about the integrity of the process.
