But we are still allowing the idea that it would be okay to hunt down one of the rioters and mount the head on the wall.

| Good thing twitter doesn't censor for violence, just partisanship |
The problem for Twitter is that it could become a full time job deleting posts from liberals that advocate violence and destruction against pretty much anyone and everything that doesn't agree with their concept of liberalism and wokeness.
But of course, they will never get around to doing any of that. Not when they have a few more million conservatives who might have a tweet about election fraud or something "really" dangerous. You know anything that is less than three times removed from someone who might hypothetically do something that hasn't yet been done by anyone.

Trump Will Leave Office Severely Weakened
11:09 am EST
“Whether President Trump is forced from office or serves out the remaining days of his term, he is now destined to slink out of the White House considerably diminished from the strapping, fearsome force he and his advisers imagined he would be in his post-presidency,” the Washington Post reports.
“Trump had planned to retreat from Washington to plot a comeback that could return him to the White House in four years, but now he will have to contend with a possible second impeachment or perhaps even criminal charges.”
Said GOP strategist Scott Reed:
“The way he handled himself in the last 60 days has tarnished his reputation and his ability to be a future leader — and by botching the Georgia Senate races, his entire economic agenda is about to get overturned by the Senate. He’s really gone backwards like no one ever would have imagined.”
Democrats Could Delay Impeachment Trial
11:03 am
House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-SC) said House Democrats might wait until after President-elect Joe Biden’s first 100 days in office to send any articles of impeachment against President Trump to the Senate, a move that would give the incoming President time to tackle his agenda in Congress before the start of a time-consuming trial, CNN reports.
Said Clyburn: “We’ll take the vote that we should take in the House, and Speaker Nancy Pelosi will make the determination as to when is the best time to get that vote and get the managers appointed and move that legislation over to the Senate.”
James: Yes! Just let him slink off and stew in the purgatory he shaped for himself. Don't give him the publicity of an impeachment proceeding any time soon. Other forces will be working against him. Give Biden time to build momentum without attention on Trump.
Hogan Blames Trump and GOP Lawmakers for Riot
11:00 am
Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) on Sunday blamed him for inciting the riot at the U.S. Capitol and slammed GOP members of Congress for lending credence to Trump’s false allegations of election fraud, the Washington Post reports.
Toomey Says Trump Has Descended Into ‘Madness’
10:59 am
Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA) said President Trump has “descended into a level of madness” since the November election — drawing a distinction between his previous support of the president and his anger over the deadly riots of Trump supporters who descended on Capitol Hill last week, Politico reports.
Said Toomey: “I don’t think there’s any doubt at all, there’s none in my mind, that the president’s behavior after the election was wildly different than his behavior before. He descended into a level of madness and engaged in activity that was absolutely unthinkable and unforgivable.”
Toomey also called on Trump to resign.
___________
No, he doesn't need to resign. He has been ignominiously FIRED by a disgusted American majority.
‘Real Evil’
12:38 pm
Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) on Twitter:
“I haven’t yet said this publically, but I want to now. On Wednesday I felt literally and real evil as the insurrection went down. It is not something that happens much, but I’ve never felt it stronger than that day. Mass deception.”
Schwarzenegger Compares GOP Lawmakers to Nazis
12:35 pm
Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) said in a video that Wednesday was America’s Kristallnacht, and those who urged it on are complicit like the former Nazi soldiers he knew in Austria growing up.
Christie Says Trump’s Actions Are Impeachable
12:29 pm
Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) told ABC News that he believed President Trump’s actions before supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol last week amounted to an “impeachable offense.”
Said Christie: “What we had was an incitement to riot at the United States Capitol. We have people killed, and to me there’s not a whole lot of question here.”
Christie added that if he were in Congress, he would vote in favor of impeachment: “If inciting to insurrection isn’t, then I don’t really know what is.”
Lawmakers Exposed to Coronavirus During Lockdown
12:24 pm
“Lawmakers who hunkered down together for safety while a pro-Trump mob attacked the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday may have been exposed to someone in the same room who was infected with the coronavirus, according to the Office of the Attending Physician,” the Washington Post reports.
Again I emphasize my own opinion:
This failed President has now damaged himself so badly even his cronies cannot help him. He is indeed now "destined to slink out of the White House considerably diminished from the strapping, fearsome force he and his advisers imagined he would be in his post-presidency”
--and thanks be to God for that.
His chances of ever being re-elected are zilch, for he has now strengthened even a cowardly GOP resistance enough to prevent it.
He even managed to destroy the one chance the Republicans had of maintaining control of the Senate.
Thank God for that too.
The Democrats would be wise to "delay impeachment" proceedings and wait until President-elect Joe Biden has had sufficient time to gain momentum with the Congress for his programs.
Take the vote, but then freeze the de-twittered Trumpster out of the public eye by ignoring him a public stance and forcing him to slink off and stew in the purgatory he shaped for himself. Don't give him the publicity of an impeachment proceeding any time soon. Other forces will be working against him, including legal proceedings for what will probably prove to be extensive illegal financial activities.
In short, give Biden time to build momentum without excessive attention on Trump.
Nor should Trump be called on to resign. He has been ignominiously FIRED by an enormously large majority of disgusted American voters who are now even more disgusted with him, along with many newly converted Republicans.
No way he would have run again in 2024 even before this week. But he has a long list of successes history can point to. His presidency is many things. But failed is not one of them.
if there's a bigger asshole on this planet than my governor, i'd love to know who it is -
Over the last several weeks, states across the country have been working to administer the newly released COVID-19 vaccine to healthcare workers and elderly, at-risk individuals.
However, one hospital in New York City is getting punished for doing so.
Democratic New York City Mayor Bill De Blasio said Friday that the state fined a New Rochelle hospital for vaccinating first responders without Governor Andrew Cuomo’s consent.
During a radio interview, De Blasio told radio host Brian Lehrer that a hospital in the city of New Rochelle, once the epicenter of the pandemic in New York, was fined after officials began inoculating first responders.
The remaining vaccines were also confiscated, the Daily Caller reports.

JAMES:
[ ] Did he fail to get re-elected?
[ ] Did he fail to overthrow the legitimate election that democratically defeated him?
[ ] Will most or all of the Obama administration policies he reversed now be reinstated?
[ ] Is he a LOSER?
[x] All the above?
Brokered multiple middle east peace accords
Relocated us embassy to Jerusalem
Renegotiated multiple trade agreements, including nafta
Record low black unemployment
Record low hispanic unemployment
Record high stock market
Hourly wage growth
Manufacturing job growth
Three supreme court justices
A presidency is not narrowly measured by reelection. Although, Trump did receive 5he 2nd most votes on American history.
Biden received the 1st most votes in American history.
[ ] Will most or all of the Obama administration policies he reversed now be reinstated?
[x] Yes.

@hale_razor
Certainly we can agree that because Congressman Steve Scalise's attempted assassin was radicalized by the teachings of Rachel Maddow and Bernie Sanders, they and their followers should be banned.
Remember all the outrage over that domestic terrorism & insurrection? Me neither.
Biden still planning to be sworn in on the steps of U.S. Capitol two weeks after mob attack.
And that makes the 2nd most in history a failure?? You're smarter than this.
[ ] Did the three supreme court justices Trump nominated and got approved do his bidding in overthrowing the a legitimate United States presidential election?
[x] No.
Biden received the most votes in an election where new voting machines could physically actually fill in the ballots...
I guess Kanye West could have won with the most votes ever.
James is flailing now. I posted an actual, legitimate list of Trump successes. By any measure of history.
Especially with stacks of pristine blank ballots and without observers

GREATEST PRESIDENT EVER !!!
If Trump had been less self- centered in his despotic desires, his successes could be more convincingly touted.
Even Biden praised the speed with which Trump encouraged a vaccination to become available.
Trump is his own worst enemy, and always has been.
He has unnecessarily sabotaged the good elements in his own record.
Trump early made up his mind to pursue a claim that the election would be rigged to be stolen from him.
He based that no doubt on the fact that he is the only president ever to have remained below 50% on the RCP job approval aggregates.
So, rather than accept the legitimate result, he early went crusading on a doomed attempt to stage an American electoral coup.
He was so enamored of himself that he did not even realize that Americans were horrified when the insurrectionists began invading our Capitol Building. He thought others would be as pleased by it as he was, and could not understand the dismay of his advisers.
He never was worthy of the office. Never.

I guess Trump should have had someone do research on how Americans would react to his encouraging white supremacists in the seditious storming of our Capitol.
Hitler's attempted putsch failed.
Trump's attempted putsch also failed.

Trump must not be permitted to.
all, for about 140 years, the U.S. Supreme Court has explained that the Constitution and the protections it provides— aside from the Thirteenth Amendment’s ban on slavery and involuntary servitude— only limit governmental actors. Thus, traditional legal doctrine provides that private actors are not constrained by the Constitution generally. This is called the “state action” doctrine. It purportedly creates a zone of privacy and protects us from excessive governmental interference.
The Court developed the state action doctrine in the Civil Rights Cases of 1883. This case actually consisted of five consolidated cases in which private businesses egregiously excluded African-American plaintiffs from their privately owned facilities opened to the public (such as movie theaters, inns, amusement parks, and trains) on the basis of race. The plaintiffs contended that such exclusions violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. However, the U.S. Supreme Court responded somewhat cavalierly “[i]t is state action of a particular character that is prohibited. Individual invasion of individual rights is not the subject-matter of the amendment.” (Civil Rights Cases, 109 U.S. 3, 11 (1883).) The Court said that there were no constitutional remedies available to these plaintiffs and that they would need to rely on the common law state protections. Sadly, there were no such state common law protections either.
Only Justice John Marshall Harlan I, the so-called “Great Dissenter” for his solitary dissent in this case, Plessy v. Ferguson (1896), and other decisions, recognized that his colleagues were allowing the government a free pass to discriminate against persons of a particular race with regard to the use of public facilities. He wrote that the “discrimination practised by corporations and individuals in the exercise of their public or quasi-public functions is a badge of servitude” that Congress could rectify under its powers under the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Amendments. (Civil Rights Cases, 109 U.S. at 43 (1883) (J. Harlan, dissenting).)
But, in 2018, speech takes place online much more so than it does in traditional public forums, such as public parks and streets. People communicate on social networking sites, such as Facebook and Twitter, more than in any offline venues. The U.S. Supreme Court recognized this reality last year in Packingham v. North Carolina (2017): “While in the past there may have been difficulty in identifying the most important places (in a spatial sense) for the exchange of views, today the answer is clear. It is cyberspace—the ‘vast democratic forums of the Internet’ in general, and social media in particular.” (Packingham v. North Carolina, 137 S.Ct. 1730, 1735 (2017).)
In his opinion for the Court, Justice Anthony Kennedy elaborated that the expansion of social media has contributed to a “revolution of historic proportions.” Id. at 1736. In other words, social media networking sites have become the modern- day equivalent of traditional public forums like public parks and public streets.
This societal development and change in communications capacities require that the antiquated state action doctrine be modified lest the law become ossified. The time has come to recognize that the reach of the First Amendment be expanded.
It might take an amendment of a Supreme Court decision.

FBI Warned Capitol Police Before Trump Rally
4:52 pm
“The FBI and the New York Police Department passed information to the Capitol Police about the possibility of violence during the Jan. 6 protests against certification of the presidential election, and the FBI even visited more than a dozen extremists already under investigation to urge them not to travel to Washington,” NBC News reports.
_________
We need to get to the bottom of this. How complicit was Trump in this? How determined was he to give cart blanche to fascistic paramilitary groups? How much does he order police to crack down hard on blacks and go easy on whites?
This definitely needs to be examined.

A Trump supporter who became known as the ‘QAnon shaman’ after being pictured during riots at the US Capitol is reportedly a “failed actor” and conspiracy theorist described by his mother’s neighbours as “bizarre."
Jacob Angeli Chansley, 33, was charged with entering a restricted building or grounds without lawful authority, and with violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds after he participated in the mob that laid siege to the Capitol on Wednesday.
He was photographed wearing horns and carrying a spear while rioting in the Senate debating chamber and had painted his face with red, white and blue face paint.
According to the Daily Mail, Chansley has been living with his 56-year-old mother, Martha, since January 2019 after he was evicted from his apartment in Phoenix, Arizona, owing US$1,247 in rent arrears.
