On Jan 6, did Congress/ Mike Pence have the authority to overrule the States Electoral Votes?

What? Who threatened the safety of others? It was the police who killed an unarmed woman who was no threat to them.

Exactly. Pissing off progs doesn't not constitute threatening the safety of others

 

[RetiredGySgt]

Yes, you have the right to believe whatever you want. But when you threaten the safety of others, police have the right to stop you.

Unless democrats order the police to stand down right?

Trump instigated the assault on the Capitol by claiming the election was stolen despite having no proof; and by lying to his supporters that Pence could rectify that by rejecting some states' electors for Biden. Then telling them Pence let them down by not doing it.

What did Bernie say that led that piece of shit to shoot at Republicans?

Sorry, but in no legal sense did Trump instigate anything.

 

[rightwinger]

Bernie repeatedly called for a revolution. Do people have a first amendment right to believe and say that an election was stolen or not? It is not against the law to claim an election was stolen. People have that right. Why do you want to take people's first amendment rights away? Why is it you claim Republicans want to take our democracy away when it is you yourself who want to take it away?

What kind of revolution?

Be honest

Not really

You are looking at a tiny percent of the vaccinated who die vs hundreds of thousands of the unvaccinated

What does that have to do with Joe Biden lying about vaccines making people immune?

How many people did you infect and subsequently kill because you thought you couldn't spread Covid? 100? 1,000? 10,000?

OK
Lets compare Biden’s “Lie” to your lie that vaccines don’t work

I WIN!

Be honest

The Soviet style of revolution, obviously.

I never said lying about the election being stolen was against the law. It's harmful to the nation, to be sure, but it's not illegal.

You're fucked in the head to ask such an absurd question. That mob was violent and threatened lawmakers...

No, not right.

 

[Oddball]

Stop the Steal

That was the objective of the mob storming the Capitol.
Do you believe Congress or the Vice President has the authority to overturn the states Electoral Votes?

No....Nobody asked him to do that, so the thread premise is deliberately dishonest.

 

[rightwinger]

No....Nobody asked him to do that, so the thread premise is deliberately false.

Trump told them to stand up and stop Congress from stealing the election

The TRUMPmob listened

Liar.

 

[Independent thinker]

What kind of revolution?

Be honest

Oh, so now you are going to demand exactly what Bernie meant but you have already decided what Trump meant. This is actually exactly my point. Both Bernie and Trump said things which could lead dweebs to mistake what they meant but you don't investigate Bernie but you investigate Trump.

 

[Independent thinker]

I never said lying about the election being stolen was against the law. It's harmful to the nation, to be sure, but it's not illegal.

Then why are Democrats investigating Trump for exercising his first amendment rights, especially when you are admitting that Trump did nothing illegal?

 

[Independent thinker]

You're fucked in the head to ask such an absurd question. That mob was violent and threatened lawmakers...

And we had months of BLM protests committing numerous acts of violence and threatening law enforcement and attacking our democracy, even taking over swaths of US territory and turning them into lawless zones and trying to overrun a federal court, you know, the pillar of democracy. And, we had a Bernie supporter, after Bernie called for a revolution numerous times, not only threatening but actually shooting lawmakers.

 

[RetiredGySgt]

No, not right.

And yet for all of 2020 that's EXACTLY what democratic Mayors and Governors did.

 

[bripat9643]

I never said lying about the election being stolen was against the law. It's harmful to the nation, to be sure, but it's not illegal.

Swindling the election is what's harmful.

Not remotely similar

Trump filled an angry mob with lies and then sent them on the Capitol
