  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Why did McCarthy Give Tucker Carlson Exclusive Access to J6 Footage?

How much time did he get for that?
Read the report where Mueller goes out of his way to assert DOJ policy regarding presidents and charged crimes.
Now compare that to now where Trump no longer has that protection.
That loss of protection IMHO is why he was knee deep in trying to steal the election so he could maintain that presidential power.

Well he lost the election and he has too much baggage to win again so we’ll see. He is the most investigated President of all time.

He is the most investigated president for good reason. When it comes to anything that he may see as beneficial to him; if he had the choice to do the right thing, the wrong thing, or nothing, he will choose the wrong thing every time.

IMO... nothing he did merited 41 months in prison... He was made an example of because the fury of the left wanted him shot.
He tried to stop the electoral vote from going to Biden.

Your contention that "the left wanted him shot" is counter-factual - perhaps a projection of your own fury towards "the left".

Yep... he's a snake... just not a good one... I don't trust him one bit.
But you trust Donald John?

You could say the same thing about Biden. No one seems to care though

Not a single one of them has used "Ray Epps made me do it" as a defense.

They have in the last couple days tried to introduce the "Ray Epps" conspiracy in the Proud Boys case, but it isn't taking.

...if you really believe that, I question your ability to evaluate leaders. It Trump had Richard Nixon's Republican Party, he would be an impeached and convicted by the Senate. There simply is no comparison in recent presidential history.

They should have been honest about the entire incident and not manipulated the public by only showing what they wanted to show to prop up the narrative that this was an insurrection. When you see all the footage it's pretty obvious it wasn't. It was a bunch of people doing stupid things. And a awful lot of them just walking around.
There was 44,000 hours of footage. Of course, they are going to choose the part that is relevant to their case. Yes, an awful lot of them were walking around, trespassing and parading without a permit - and most of those are not being charged with anything.

Lol it appears you guys are the ones who can't handle the truth when it's shown, which destroys your whole insurrection narrative.
No, it really does not. There was an insurrection attempt. The Congressional proceedings were delayed and the members were forced to flee.

Yes some people did some bad things. They behaved badly and those that did should be held accountable. But an insurrection? Nah.
Yes, seditious insurrection put in place by Donald John Trump because he did not want to relinquish the office.

So, he cursed in the capitol? That's a big deal? I bet Senators curse in the capital all the time along with their staff. And the note? Really? That's a big deal? So some dude wearing a buffalo hat and carrying a shamans staff is a danger to overthrow the government? All he did was trespass in the capital and walk around. Charge him with that and obstructing if he was ordered to leave and didn't.
Shaman's staff? It was a flag pole with a sharpened metal spear tip. He incited the others with his bullhorn. He was, in fact, charged and convicted of obstruction of an official proceeding - which carries up to 20 years penalty plus restitution.

I’m not going to defend Trump I lost support for him because of his actions after the election but Biden has enriched himself and his family with the power of his office.

I don't know about you guys, but when I go site seeing at the nation's capital I always sharpen my flag pole to point, carry bear spray, dawn hockey player like padding, site see in a military stack formation, plant diversionary bombs to divert law enforcement, and keep a cache of weapons near by.

No one is carrying weapons.
That is counter-factual.

Well there you are. How so? Are they also renting out rooms for ten grand a night and overcharging the secret service tax payers at their resorts?

Ray Epps told me to do it is not a valid defense but then neither is Trump told me to do it.

You can tell that from the video?

(What I can tell is that it is a place non-badged personel are rarely allowed without escorts. The wall on the far side is the back of the Senate Chamber.)
Well, Chansley had an escort of 2 officers. If he was the big problem people made him out to be, then he could have been easily taken into custody by the 7 other officers he passed by.

Yet after all that investigating (much of which was simply made-for-TV slandering), he still isn't in jail--for good reason.
