Should the government continue to use government resources to go after those who supported President Trump, such as Gorka per the following article?

It's a bit clumsy using the link as a headline for your op. Maybe be a little specific..?

But yeah, they're investigating a criminal act and should be able to question anyone they like. They can have my phone records if they think it'll do any good.

 

[wing2000]

A congressional committee investigating an unprecedented attack on our nation's legislative body should review the phone records of everyone involved.

...btw, Gorka was speaking at a "Turning Point USA" event...
“Think about this for your phone and your family,” he added. “This committee is illegal,” the right-wing Salem radio host continued. “No crime is mentioned. What am I accused of doing? Because I was meant to be speaking on the same day at the Supreme Court but didn’t because the president’s speech went too long. That’s my crime in America? Speaking?” “You choose the wrong enemy,”

LOL

What other resources would the government use if not government resources?

 

[The IbanezerScrooge]

Yes. That's how criminal investigations work.

No. In my opinion, they should confiscate Trump's assets and use that money to go after his supporters.

I'm just surprised that an insignificant nothingburger like Gorka was welcome in their little plot. It seems they fell for his "alpha male"* routine.

LOL, indeed.

* an "alpha male" with a 4-cylinder "sports car" with an automatic gear box and "art of war" plates. If your going to drive a 4-cylinder, at least be "alpha" enough to shift your own gears.

 

[rambot]

Should they investigate possible crimes....man...that's a tough one.

Uhhh.... yes. Anybody that may be connected with the event is a potential witness or may have relevant information.

 

[essentialsaltes]

Whether any crimes and prosecutions come out of it is almost beside the point. Like Watergate and 9/11, what happened on Jan 6 deserves a public investigation and accounting from our representatives in Congress.

lolol

Some comments made me chuckle. But they make automatic Mustangs? I hired a jet black soft top for a day in Honolulu some time back. Then found out the speed limit was 50mph around the whole island...

An alleged criminal act, and I didn't know that was what Congress was for. What is the legitimate legislative purpose of this fishing expedition? Gorka should tell them to go pound sand.

Still waiting for them to investigate the thousands who protested the Trump inauguration, was that an insurrection?

Come 1/23 when the new Congress takes office, this garbage will stop, perhaps then Congress can investigate why there are political prisoners from 1/06 still being held without charges. This from the same lefty bunch that ignored, if not encouraged, the 2020 BLM/Antifa mobs that did billions in damages, killed or injured 2,000 law enforcement personnel, and set up autonomous zones. They were the military wing of the Democratic Party, much like the KKK used to be.

He should definitely do that. Please ignore any and all subpoenas. And be very public. Offer to take a legal bullet for the EX President. In fact, take a legal artillery round.

When EX President Trump regains office in 2025, pardons all around.

But it's OK when Democrats ignore subpoenas?

 

[cow451]

I was simply supporting your position that Gorka should be loyal to the EX President. Look how many have simply rolled over at the slightest investigation.

 

[Tanj]

But it's OK when Democrats ignore subpoenas?

For example?

All criminal acts are alleged until those involved are found innocent or guilty. And why would anyone investigate someone protesting Trump (or Biden) becoming president? I guess maybe you're talking about the tens of thousands who didn't turn up for Trump's inaugeration. I didn't know it was compulsory to attend.

And feel free to post any details of people being held without charge for anything at all (in excess of the usually accepted 72 hours) let alone rioting at the capitol. Copying and pasting from some obscure websire won't cut it either. Maybe what you meant to say was 'held without bail'. That's your (ahem) get-out-of-jail card if you'd like to play it.

 

[East of Eden]

For example?

The former AG Eric Holder, the one who described himself as Obama's wingman:

Six police officers injured, $100K in damages and 217 arrested in the DC insurrection when Trump was inaugurated, CNN described the mayhem as 'coordinated'.

Charges against all 200+ were dropped by the following July, in our two-tiered justice system, yet dozens from 1/06 are still in jail a year later:
