The narrative that the Capitol protest was a “deadly insurrection” is falling apart (Page 94/110)

"ABC News correspondent Jonathan Karl believes January 6 rioters were searching for ballots"

quote
Karl believes Jan. 6 rioters who ransacked the Senate parliamentarian’s office were searching for [the] state ballots [from electors that had been delivered] to Washington, D.C. that day to be certified, [in order] to destroy them in an attempt to further disrupt the election.

“One of the striking things about the riot was that the room that got ransacked the most was the parliamentarian’s office. And I believe those rioters were searching for the ballots with the intent of destroying them.”




And I thought I'd already been tipped to everything worth remembering about the Capitol Building incursion on January 6.

Its hard to decide if the most twisted lies are the initial story they make up, or the creative later ones.

Also to note, the media must be using a new word for it now, to be puppeted?

incursion
n.
1. An aggressive entrance into foreign territory; a raid or invasion.
2. The act of entering another's territory or domain.
3. The act of entering or running into.

I don't think there is anything surprising or "hard to swallow" about the idea that some of the January 6 people were thinking that they could get their hands on the Electoral College ballots by rummaging through the Senate parliamentarian's office.

I seriously doubt that this was an idea that came from Trump or any of his closest advisors and confidantes.

YUP.

There is nothing new about this so-called story, other than it's just another bullshit twist on the bullshit narrative.

The Leftist media was hooting about the Senate Parliamentarian's office being ransacked THE DAY AFTER IT HAPPENED




The Pennocks Purveyor Of Perjury's latest propagandist "hero", ABC Johnny the dead horse beater, is almost A YEAR LATE to the party with his unfounded speculation.

"1832"

It's not a new brand of "olde time" beer or root beer. It's the last time a former member of the U.S. House of Representatives had been voted "In Contempt" by the House--until yesterday. Among the House Republicans, only Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger joined the Democrats to vote to hold former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadowns in contempt, for refusing to testify before the "Jan. 6" committee.

Everyone already knows that, including the voters in their respective home districts.

All the rest of it is just your usual obsessive propaganda bullshit.

Your preoccupation with meaningless crap and trivial nonsense continues wildly unabated.

Cheney's 2022 reelection chances range between none and none. She's underwater by 20 points.

Kinzinger announced he isn't running again in 2022 and his (former) R constituents are gleeful.


As for Mr. Meadows, he and Mr. Bannon will spend as much time in jail, (none), and pay similar fines, (nothing), as did other people contemptuous of Congress, like Eric Holder (255–67) and Lois Lerner (231-187)


OH, and as far as that moronic "1832" reference, Sam Houston, (yes that Sam Houston), was reprimanded but not censured and never spent a moment in jail or paid any fines....the same as Mr. Meadows fate will be.

Get their hands on the Electoral College ballots ? ? ? ?

Do you really think that there are paper Electoral College ballots ? No doubt that it was not an idea that came from Trump or any of his closest advisors and confidantes.

What do you think are inside those mahogany wood boxes that feature in the reporting? They're just empty mahogany wood boxes?

If you know more about this than I do, by all means set me straight.
