/----/ Got any fake outrage over this, Sparky?‘Donald Trump says the rioters who assaulted police officers in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot are “warriors.” That’s not just wrong; it’s dangerous.
[…]
For months, Trump has called defendants like them “hostages” and “political prisoners,” as if they were being held unfairly by a repressive regime — a grotesque lie meant to attack the judicial system Trump wants to destroy.
But recently he gave the Jan. 6 attackers a more heroic title.
“Those J6 warriors — they were warriors,” the former president said at a rally in Las Vegas. “But they were really, more than anything else, they’re victims of what happened. All they were doing is protesting a rigged election.”
That’s quite a promotion. “Warriors” is a word Americans generally apply to members of the armed forces, not militants who attack police officers with bear spray.’

The judicial system Trump wants to destroy, indeed.

Kamala Harris’ public support for a controversial bail fund continues to haunt her as more examples of crimes committed by those whose release was secured in the name of “social justice” emerge.
The Minnesota Freedom Fund (MFF) paid bail for an assailant who turned killer a week later, a habitual DUI driver who crashed and killed a passenger after the fund freed him and a serial arsonist who attempted to burn down a mosque.
The Vice President had thrown her weight behind the fund in June 2020 during the height of riots over the death of George Floyd, asking followers to “chip in” if they could.
The MFF, which was also endorsed by other celebrities, raised more than $41 million that year, but questions have been raised about how it make decisions about who to bail out.
The Post revealed yesterday a two-time convicted rapist was bailed and went on to rape another woman landing him back in prison on rape and assault with a dangerous weapon charges.
