Sorry. Jan 6 was not an insurrection no matter how many times it’s repeated


Jan 6 as related by democrats

If you want to see hyperbole in action, spend some time on Twitter (X). It is populated by quite a diverse assortment of liberal yokels. Someone seizes upon a theme and when the dog whistle is blown they come a runnin’ for a day or two and then the air comes out of the balloon. But one theme persists-that Jan 6 was an insurrection.

It wasn’t.

But that doesn’t dissuade the left from continuing the nonsense.

And my favorite

The left loves the word “insurrection.” It is a mainstay for CNN. But who has been charged with insurrection? To my knowledge, no one.

NPR grudgingly calls it what it was – a riot. A protest that turned into a riot. Newsweek also calls it a riot.

Was it armed? Not seriously. A few carried weapons with them, but the only weapon discharged that day was the one used by Michael Byrd to murder Ashli Babbitt.

It is not disputable that some Capitol officers escorted protesters into the building. Six were suspended and 29 more were under investigation.

The fear of Donald Trump is the fuel for this ongoing misrepresentation. Here’s the thing-anyone who seriously believes that any action by the rioters, should it actually have gone anywhere, was going to be recognized as a legitimate action is a complete moron.

The Republic was not going to change. The results, as dubious as they were, were not going to change. This hysteria about the loss of democracy is just that-vapid hysteria. More stupid is the suggestion that Trump would use the military to install himself as a dictator. No one should be buying into it no matter how many times it’s uttered.

Besides, we already have a dictator.
