Trump Would Win Rematch With Biden
While most voters aren’t looking forward to a Biden-Trump rematch in 2024, it’s clear that the Republican would be favored. Forty-five percent (45%) of voters would choose Trump if the election were held today, while only 32% would vote to reelect Biden. Seventeen percent (17%) say they’d vote for some other candidate.
Only 69% of those who say they voted for Biden last year would vote for him again if the election were held today. Eight percent (8%) of Biden’s 2020 voters would switch to Trump, who would get 83% support from those who voted for him last year. Seventeen percent (17%) of those who voted for Biden and 11% who voted for Trump last year would support some other candidate if the next election were held today.
I get it. Some are going to scoff at this poll because it is Rasmussen. But Rasmussen was not too terribly far off the mark in recent elections. Given how poorly most of our pollsters did over the past two elections in overestimating Trump's opponents, I find it disingenuous for anyone to criticize a pollster for appearing pro-Trump.
All that being said, the poll speaks for itself. If it is a couple points off, then Trump is still winning by double digits, and it is not likely to get any better for Dementia Joe. Just this past week, his spokesperson says he is looking to run for reelection. The reality is that for the first time in modern history, a sitting President might not get to make that choice. From Reagan primarying Ford, to Kennedy primarying Carter, even sure losers seem to have gotten the benefit of the doubt? But will that happen if Slow Joe runs again?

Who wouldn’t have Trump “cooperated” with to get elected? He was an all-round huckster, with no ethics, no sense of propriety, and essentially a thug, who got a boner watching human beings being crushed by tanks in Tiananmen Square. And do we have any evidence ever of Trump having the brains, the discretion, the attention to minute detail, or the competent staffing that would have been needed to pull off such a scheme?

Really, well he has movedvmore Americans into record debt , record number in poverty and high inflation.

About the author: David Frum is a staff writer at The Atlantic and the author of Trumpocalypse: Restoring American Democracy (2020). In 2001 and 2002, he was a speechwriter for President George W. Bush.
If Donald Trump had been supported only by people who affirmatively liked him, his attack on American democracy would never have gotten as far as it did.
Instead, at almost every turn, Trump was helped by people who had little liking for him as a human being or politician, but assessed that he could be useful for purposes of their own. The latest example: the suddenly red-hot media campaign to endorse Trump’s fantasy that he was the victim of a “Russia hoax.”
Franklin Foer: Russiagate was not a hoax
The usual suspects in the pro-Trump media ecosystem will of course endorse and repeat everything Trump says, no matter how outlandish. But it’s not pro-Trumpers who are leading the latest round of Trump-Russia denialism. This newest round of excuse-making is being sounded from more respectable quarters, in many cases by people distinguished as Trump critics. With Trump out of office—at least for the time being—they now feel free to subordinate their past concerns about him to other private quarrels with the FBI or mainstream media institutions. On high-subscription Substacks, on popular podcasts, even from within prestige media institutions, people with scant illusions about Trump the man and president are nonetheless volunteering to help him execute one of his Big Lies.
The factual record on Trump-Russia has been set forth most authoritatively by the report of the Senate Intelligence Committee, then chaired by Richard Burr, a Republican from North Carolina. I’ll reduce the complex details to a very few agreed upon by virtually everybody outside the core Trump-propaganda group.
Dating back to at least 2006, Trump and his companies did tens of millions of dollars of business with Russian individuals and other buyers whose profiles raised the possibility of money laundering. More than one-fifth of all the condominiums sold by Trump over his career were purchased in all-cash transactions by shell companies, a 2018 BuzzFeed News investigation found.
In 2013, Trump’s pursuit of Russian business intensified. That year, he staged the Miss Universe pageant in Moscow. Around that time, Trump opened discussions on the construction of a Trump Tower in Moscow, from which he hoped to earn “hundreds of millions of dollars, if the project advanced to completion,” in the words of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
Trump continued to pursue the Tower deal for a year after he declared himself a candidate for president. “By early November 2015, Trump and a Russia-based developer signed a Letter of Intent laying out the main terms of a licensing deal,” the Senate Intelligence Committee found. Trump’s representatives directly lobbied aides to Russian President Vladimir Putin in January 2016. Yet repeatedly during the 2016 campaign, Trump falsely stated that he had no business with Russia—perhaps most notably in his second presidential debate against Hillary Clinton, in October 2016.
Early in 2016, President Putin ordered an influence operation to “harm the Clinton Campaign, tarnish an expected Clinton presidential administration, help the Trump Campaign after Trump became the presumptive Republican nominee, and undermine the U.S. democratic process.” Again, that’s from the Senate Intelligence Committee report.
The Trump campaign adviser George Papadopoulos “likely learned about the Russian active measures campaign as early as April 2016,” the Senate Intelligence Committee wrote. In May 2016, Papadopoulos indiscreetly talked with Alexander Downer, then the Australian high commissioner to the United Kingdom, about Russia’s plot to intervene in the U.S. election to hurt Clinton and help Trump. Downer described the conversation in a report to his government. By long-standing agreement, Australia shares intelligence with the U.S. government. It was Papadopoulos’s blurt to Downer that set in motion the FBI investigation of Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election, a revelation authoritatively reported more than three years ago.

Hey Roger...
Perhaps you should pay attention.
After five different investigations there was never anyone charges with anything to do with collusion or conspiracy with the Russians.
After a few months of investigation into the investigation there are already indictments on people who provided fake information to the FBI or pushed fake information for the purposes of undermining the new President.
The Russian collusion conspiracy that apparently you are one of the few Americans still supporting... has been debunked. It is the "biggest lie" of our lifetimes.
A week or so ago you were admitting that you were wrong. Now, you read one article of repeatedly debunked nonsense and you are right back to where you had been.... under the thumb of the conspiracy theorists!
It's called having a weak mind.
Roger...
Even the NYT and WaPo are revising their story. The guy under indictment is actually doing what the FBI and SC were hoping they could do to some Trump lackee, and this spilling the goods.
The difference is that the guy spilling the beans, admitting that he worked for Clinton and pushed information he knew was false was actually doing something wrong. Meanwhile all millions investigating Trump came up empty, because nobody was actually guilty of anything.
If the NYT and WaPo are admitting they are wrong due to sworn testimony, why is it that you are still looking for the few crazies out there who simply won't let go!
Btw... now would be a good time for you to bring up Trump's penis again. It's one of your stronger arguments... ahem.

Joe Biden: why the US president's approval ratings have fallen so far
The Conversation
November 26, 2021
Ten months into his presidency, Joe Biden's poll numbers are, by any measure, lukewarm. According to the latest figures, taken on November 24, only 43% of Americans approve of his performance in office, while a majority think he is not doing a good job. In a week when he announced that he is planning to run for the presidency again in 2024, these are surely not the numbers he is hoping for.
There are a number of explanations for Biden's low approval rating, but some context is useful. While he is recently polling lower than his three Democrat predecessors at this point in their presidency, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter were not faced with a pandemic in an era of dangerously toxic partisanship.
Also, the storming of the Capitol in January 2021 by violent supporters of the outgoing president, Donald Trump, ensured that Biden's ascension to power later that month took place at a time when American democracy appeared to be in peril.
Connecting with the 47% of the public who had voted for his opponent was always going to be difficult – not least as the election outcome was – and still is – contested by many influential officeholders.
Bearing this tumultuous start in mind, there are some factors in particular that may help to explain where Biden has found himself politically.
Added to the president's political headaches are problems in his own party. Democrat family squabbles are nothing new, but Biden has to spend precious political capital on reining in frisky progressives while dealing with the disproportionate influence of specific conservative individuals. West Virginia Senate representative Joe Manchin showed his power in the 50/50 deadlocked Senate by challenging the central tenet of Biden's climate agenda, on the eve of the COP26 summit in Glasgow. The result was a US president heading to a crucial climate conference with an agenda undermined by a recalcitrant member of his own party.
Presenting as a moderate Democrat was always going to bring challenges for Biden. On one level, it is a sensible strategy as traditionally, voters tend to veer to the centre at general election time. Clearly many did, as the centrist Democrat won with 51% of the vote. However, the flipside of such an approach is that the middle-of-the-road position may satisfy nobody.
Hence, in his early days in office, Biden tacked to the left of his traditional position on certain issues including climate, immigration and committing to trillions in expenditure, which pleased progressives and showed, however fleeting, party unity.
The political challenges facing Biden remain daunting. He leads a deeply divided country that has been unable to unite in a crisis. Fake news abounds and undermines civil discourse. It is difficult to imagine how any president might fare well in the polls under such circumstances. A less centrist leader that Biden could make the situation worse. His 51% disapproval rating still equates with 43% approval. Under the circumstances, this constitutes a political glass that is (almost) half full. But it will need to be fuller if he really does plan to run in 2024.
Thecoldheartedtruth is if it wasn't for the exploitation of slaves and non-caucasian-immigrants there WOULDN'T be a USA, period.

Thecoldheartedtruth is if it wasn't for the exploitation of slaves and non-caucasian-immigrants there WOULDN'T be a USA, period.
Narrator: At anyone time only 12% of the population actually owned slaves. By far the USA was built by freemen working small farms. In fact all through the 19th century the predominate export from the USA is the same as it is today, wheat, sorghum, corn and rye. The US became a manufacturing giant in the late 19th century.
As far as immigrants are concerned, pretty much all of them came from Europe, Ireland, and the British Isles.
I don't know where you this non-Caucasian immigrants crap. But to say only 12% of the population built the USA is ignorant to say the least.
BTW the committee on writing the Declaration of Independents consisted of two representatives of the free colonies (Adams, and Franklin) and one representing a slave colony (Jefferson). Of the three it was Jefferson who proposed the strongest anti-slavery language and while Adams and Franklin manage to convince Jefferson to jettison most of it, they agree to keep the "All men are created equal" passage even thought they knew it would generate the most opposition from the slave colonies.
So Biden and Harris were against the Trump Bans, that they are now for.
I wonder If Biden will let people at the southern border know if they are from Africa they are not allowed in ?

The holiday season has just begun, and I already know what I want for Christmas: full and fair voting rights for all Americans. Note that I didn’t say please. This is a demand, not a request.
I’m talking to you, Sens. Joe Manchin III (D-W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.). I’m talking to other Democratic senators who might also value the filibuster over voting rights but haven’t been so public about it. And I’m talking to the brick wall of Republicans in the Senate and the House who once routinely supported guaranteeing the right to vote but who now fear and loathe the basic mechanism of our democracy.
The last time the landmark Voting Rights Act was reauthorized, in 2006, it was approved by an overwhelming bipartisan majority in the House and unanimously in the Senate, with unctuous hosannas from Republicans. But this month, only one Republican — Sen. Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) — voted to even allow the Senate to debate the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, which would restore and update the “pre-clearance” requirements of the 1965 law that were voided by the Supreme Court in 2013.
Those provisions required states with a history of electoral discrimination against African Americans and other minorities to obtain approval from the Justice Department before changing laws about voting. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. wrote for the 5-4 majority that “history did not end in 1965,” indicating he believed the kind of discrimination we suffered back then no longer exists.
Boy, was he wrong.
Republicans have practically fallen over themselves in a rush to enact laws that limit or dilute the voting power of Americans of color — who, not coincidentally, tend to vote for Democrats. They limit the number of polling places in selected neighborhoods so that voters of color have to wait in long lines. They try to structure rules on early and absentee voting in ways that disadvantage minorities. They draw congressional district boundaries to dilute the Black and Hispanic vote — and do the same with state legislative districts so that Republicans can continue to be the ones who make, and distort, election rules.
This year, with GOP voters bewitched by the “big lie” about purported voter fraud, some Republican-held states are going even further to seek control over how votes are counted. Georgia, for example, has given its GOP-controlled state legislature a role in deciding who won an election and who lost. In January, the state elected two Democrats to the U.S. Senate, and Republicans seem determined not to let anything like that happen again.
All attempts by Congress to guarantee that all qualified citizens in every state have the right and ability to vote have been stymied by the Senate filibuster. The John Lewis Act is no radical departure; essentially, it would just return us to the status quo before 2013. If there are not the necessary 10 Republican votes to do even that, the prospects for stronger and more comprehensive pro-democracy legislation are nonexistent.
[The Post's View: The John Lewis Act would restore key voting protections. Democrats should fight for it.]
The right to vote should not be a partisan issue. But it is.
The Republican senators who voted in the past for the provisions of the John Lewis Act should vote for them again now. But they won’t.
It is past time for Senate Democrats to deal with reality as it is, not as they wish it to be. The Senate is not the comity club it used to be. It has become basically a smaller, less efficient version of the House, where members vote along party lines rather than being guided by conscience. Democrats need to recognize that preserving our democracy is much more important than Senate tradition, and at a minimum they need to change the rules so that the John Lewis Act can be passed by simple majority.
The argument against eliminating the filibuster — even for the one fundamental issue of voting rights — is that Democrats will regret such a move when Republicans are back in charge of the chamber. Imagine what they would do if Democrats have no power to use the filibuster to stop them.
[Mitt Romney: Filibuster or bust: Maintaining the minority's power in the Senate is critical]
My response: But look at what Republicans are doing right now. This very minute. As we speak.
Manchin and Sinema have said they are unwilling to eliminate or circumvent the filibuster. But they have also said they understand the importance of guaranteeing voting rights, and surely they see what Republicans are doing to unfairly tilt the political playing field in the GOP’s favor.
This isn’t about saving the Democratic Party. It’s about giving all Americans a vote, and thus a voice, in electing our leaders. Senators, do the right thing.
Eugene Robinson
Robinson is a moron. 95% of the world has voter ID laws. 30 states have voter ID laws. 70% or more of Americans want stricter ID laws and prefer security over ease of vote
Why does Robinson believe he is entitled to his own stupid opinion that only other idiots want?
The railroad system was built with African and Asian men..
Also Irishman, ex-confederate solders, German and Nordic Immigrants. More so than ex-slaves.
Slaves built The White House and the congressional buildings.
The White House was designed by an Irishman. The city of Washington was laid out by a French man.
BTW the slaves were paid wages that went to their master. The could have easily hire freemen to do the work.
Even today in the central valley of California uses Hispanic workers...
Not mention as the people you said build the USA. (And trust me, just like slaves on the cotton plantation if they could pick fruits and vegetables with a mechanical picker they would.)
As it is, they pretty much mechanize citrus harvesting.

I wondered about your immune system works because I know more than it than you can imagine
RINO Wall Street Journal reports..
Governments around the globe, including the U.S., have restricted travel from southern Africa in an effort to contain the fast-spreading new Omicron variant of the coronavirus. The World Health Organization on Friday declared Omicron, which is also known as B.1.1.529, a “variant of concern,” indicating that it carries higher risks than other virus strains. Here is what we know so far.
What has the WHO said about the Omicron variant?
The World Health Organization said there was preliminary evidence that the variant, which was first detected on Nov. 9, might pose a greater risk of people falling ill with Covid-19 for a second time. It also said that the variant might be more transmissible than other strains of the coronavirus, citing Omicron’s rapid spread in South Africa over the past two weeks.
The agency has asked health authorities around the world to examine more positive test samples to see whether Omicron was already spreading in other places.
Why are scientists concerned?
Omicron has an unusually large number of mutations: around 50, including more than 30 on the spike protein, the structure that the virus uses to attach to human cells and the main target of many current Covid-19 vaccines.
Viruses mutate all the time, and most mutations make no difference to how the virus operates. But in some cases they can make a virus spread faster or improve its ability to evade the body’s immune system or vaccines.
It's very difficult to understand facts about the immune system and the infections
Why is it Biden Lied and Did not follow the CDC Science.
WHY ARE YOU SOOOOOO FUCKING STUPID???????

The Godfather Presidency Scott loved it and again and again and again and again and again and again
Trump has also had conversations in recent weeks with MAGA-aligned Republicans who are considering challenging GOP governors with whom he has grown disillusioned. The former President urged former Georgia Sen. David Perdue to run against incumbent Gov. Brian Kemp, who resisted Trump's efforts to overturn his narrow 2020 loss in the state to then-candidate Joe Biden. And he has been receptive to the prospect of Alabama Senate GOP candidate Lynda Blanchard challenging Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey.
The notoriously vengeful former President has told associates he blames Ivey for a decision by the USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park Commission earlier this summer to prevent him from holding a July 3 rally aboard the retired World War II battleship.
Ex-presidents usually leave the limelight after leaving office, refraining from inserting themselves in their party primaries. But a person close to Trump likened the former President to the mob patriarch Vito Corleone in the "The Godfather" movie for his efforts to retaliate against Republicans who criticized him for inciting the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol or for voting to pass Biden's $1.2 trillion infrastructure plan. Trump has been "pulling strings behind the scenes and guiding candidates in the right direction," this person said.

Very good propaganda class
Democracy is a precious thing. When the Persians invaded Greece, a handful of Greek city-states banded together to defeat the imperialist pretensions of the “Great Kings.” Aeschylus says that the Greek soldiers and sailors rowed to war shouting “eleutheria” (freedom) in the decisive battle of Salamis. Ever since, there have been tremendous moments of heroic sacrifice in the name of liberty and democracy. To our national shame, the propaganda effort of the last year about “saving American democracy” is not one of them.
Following the September 11 Attacks, it was common to hear liberals and Democrats bemoan the erasure of civil liberties by the federal government as the War on Terror ratcheted up. The CIA, FBI, and other apparatuses of the security-surveillance state were assailed for their abuses of Constitutional civil liberties. Now, however, these same people—sans a few—are mostly quiet. In fact, they’re not merely quiet anymore, many openly endorse letting loose the hounds of the security state on fellow Americans whom they deem their enemies.

The Republicans are a cult not a conservative party now..

Biden promised voters he would "tax the rich" but is hiring 87,000 IRS agents to "audit the workers."
Incredible.
will they work in conjunction with his FBI storm troopers?
Now nearly a year later not a single person has been charged with insurrection
Yet many are still imprisoned including solitary confinement
Trying to "break" them

Biden is a failure.
He said he would stop it .

T. Goddard says THE GUARDIAN SAYS:
Ukraine Claims Russian-Linked Coup Plot
2:19 pm EST
“Ukraine’s president has said intelligence services uncovered a plot involving a group of Russians and Ukrainians to overthrow his government next week.
Trump must have produced those vaccines too quickly and ineffectively.
"Ukraine Claims Russian-Linked Coup Plot"
and what does that have to do with anything here ?
Oh, it's the PPOS "pastor" and his Goddard worship
Fox News report WHO explained, "The B.1.1.529 variant was first reported to WHO from South Africa on [Nov. 24, 2021]. The epidemiological situation in South Africa has been characterized by three distinct peaks in reported cases, the latest of which was predominantly the delta variant. In recent weeks, infections have increased steeply, coinciding with the detection of B.1.1.529 variant. The first known confirmed B.1.1.529 infection was from a specimen collected on [Nov. 9, 2021]."
The World Health Organization has been watched by many with suspicion since it apparently allowed Chinese officials to suppress information about the original outbreak of COVID-19 that first was noticed nearly two years ago. And Doctor Fauci profited by the Chinese government
Now, the organization said of the new threat, "Preliminary evidence suggests an increased risk of reinfection with this variant, as compared to other VOCs. The number of cases of this variant appears to be increasing in almost all provinces in South Africa. Current SARS-CoV-2 PCR diagnostics continue to detect this variant. Several labs have indicated that for one widely used PCR test, one of the three target genes is not detected (called S gene dropout or S gene target failure) and this test can therefore be used as marker for this variant, pending sequencing confirmation. Using this approach, this variant has been detected at faster rates than previous surges in infection, suggesting that this variant may have a growth advantage."
WHO told nations they must increase "surveillance" of problems. Microchips to surveil you from Microsoft!
"Trump must have produced those vaccines too quickly and ineffectively."
actually that was Fauci and his CDC, FDA and the "scientists"
they sure are failures
no wonder Biden kept them
World Nut Daily said...
at least the real roger is coming out
Can't be long until he's leading sessions with his bunk mates
They all probably look up to him
or so he thinks
ROFLMFAO !!!
Trump must have produced those vaccines too quickly and ineffectively
Then why is the idiot in chief pushing it so hard?
Perhaps the real issue is that instead of pushing one thing, they could be looking at the idea that this is gonna mutate and needs some varient vaccines, not just the one.
But that would take initiative.
This is my prediction by Scott
My own prediction is that covid will soon occupy the biological niche that in recent history has been taken up by what we call influenza, and also perhaps some of the niche occupied by the common cold. In another few years, things will have returned to normal, in that each winter some of us will contract respiratory viruses, and tens of thousands (mostly elderly and already weak) will die. The most important thing, in my opinion, is that we not treat every new covid mutation in hysterical fashion, blighting our people’s lives, needlessly devastating our economy, and above all abusing our children. Such “cures” are worse than the disease.
At Monday’s press conference, Waukesha Police Chief Daniel Thompson said, “I want to dispel some rumors—there was no pursuit that led up to this incident. This is not a terrorist event.” The fact that there was no chase seemed to rule out an earlier idea that CNN and others floated that Brooks accidentally wound up in the parade after fleeing an earlier incident.
But no terrorism? Terrorism is defined as “the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.” For a DOJ and FBI that have spent a lot of time using that definition to paint soccer moms as terrorists, it might be premature to rule out terrorism because he is a n****.
The Attack.
President Donald Trump’s assault on American democracy began in the spring of 2020, when he issued a flurry of preemptive attacks on the integrity of the country’s voting systems. The doubts he cultivated ultimately led to a rampage inside the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, when a pro-Trump mob came within seconds of encountering Vice President Mike Pence, trapped lawmakers and vandalized the home of Congress in the worst desecration of the complex since British forces burned it in 1814. Five people died in the Jan. 6 attack or in the immediate aftermath, and 140 police officers were assaulted.
The consequences of that day are still coming into focus, but what is already clear is that the insurrection was not a spontaneous act nor an isolated event. It was a battle in a broader war over the truth and over the future of American democracy.
Since then, the forces behind the attack remain potent and growing. Trump emerged emboldened, fortifying his hold on the Republican Party, sustaining his election-fraud lie and driving demands for more restrictive voting laws and investigations of the 2020 results, even though they have been repeatedly affirmed by ballot reviews and the courts. A deep distrust in the voting process has spread across the country, shaking the foundation on which the American experiment was built — the shared belief that the nation’s leaders are freely and fairly elected.
The head of intelligence at D.C.’s homeland security office was growing desperate. For days, Donell HarvinDonell HarvinAs the head of intelligence at D.C.'s homeland security office, Harvin led a team that spotted warnings that extremists planned to descend on the Capitol and disrupt the electoral count. and his team had spotted increasing signs that supporters of President Donald Trump were planning violence when Congress met to formalize the electoral college vote, but federal law enforcement agencies did not seem to share his sense of urgency. On Saturday, Jan. 2, he picked up the phone and called his counterpart in San Francisco, waking Mike Sena before dawn.
Sena listened with alarm. The Northern California intelligence office he commanded had also been inundated with political threats flagged by social media companies, several involving plans to disrupt the joint session or hurt lawmakers on
He organized an unusual call for all of the nation’s regional homeland security offices — known as fusion centers — to find out what others were seeing. Sena expected a couple dozen people to get on the line that Monday. But then the number of callers hit 100. Then 200. Then nearly 300. Officials from nearly all 80 regions, from New York to Guam, logged on.
In the 20 years since the country had created fusion centers in response to the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, Sena couldn’t remember a moment like this. For the first time, from coast to coast, the centers were blinking red. The hour, date and location of concern was the same: 1 p.m., the U.S. Capitol, Jan. 6.
Harvin asked his counterparts to share what they were seeing. Within minutes, an avalanche of new tips began streaming in. Self-styled militias and other extremist groups in the Northeast were circulating radio frequencies to use near the Capitol. In the Midwest, men with violent criminal histories were discussing plans to travel to Washington with weapons.
Forty-eight hours before the attack, Harvin began pressing every alarm button he could. He invited the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Department of Homeland Security, military intelligence services and other agencies to see the information in real time as his team collected it. He took another extreme step: He asked the city’s health department to convene a call of D.C.-area hospitals and urged them to prepare for a mass casualty event. Empty your emergency rooms, he said, and stock up your blood banks.

Harvin was one of numerous people inside and outside of government who alerted authorities to the growing likelihood of deadly violence on Jan. 6, according to a Washington Post investigation, which found a cascade of previously undisclosed warnings preceded the attack on the Capitol. Alerts were raised by local officials, FBI informants, social media companies, former national security officials, researchers, lawmakers and tipsters, new documents and firsthand accounts show.
This investigation is based on interviews with more than 230 people and thousands of pages of court documents and internal law enforcement reports, along with hundreds of videos, photographs and audio recordings. Some of those who were interviewed spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe private discussions or sensitive information.
While the public may have been surprised by what happened on Jan. 6, the makings of the insurrection had been spotted at every level, from one side of the country to the other. The red flags were everywhere.
One of the most striking flares came when a tipster called the FBI on the afternoon of Dec. 20: Trump supporters were discussing online how to sneak guns into Washington to “overrun” police and arrest members of Congress in January, according to internal bureau documents obtained by The Post. The tipster offered specifics: Those planning violence believed they had “orders from the President,” used code words such as “pickaxe” to describe guns and posted the times and locations of four spots around the country for caravans to meet the day before the joint session. On one site, a poster specifically mentioned Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) as a target.

You will never recover or read this article because...
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/interactive/2021/warnings-jan-6-insurrection/
He was planning the attempting coup for several months before the Insurrection act that you denied on January 6th..
This is pertinent because it was the most important thing in our history...
The have hundreds of evidence and videos.
"It", doesn't even come close you moron.
Biden was given so much by Trump on The China Bio--Weapon Virus.
Joe did nothing , but, make it worse, by all measurable data.
President Biden IF , you have a plan it is time to use it.
"The federal government plans to send 44 military medical workers to Michigan to assist hospitals treating coronavirus patients during a fourth surge that has become the worst in the nation, according to state health officials.
“It also will open beds at the Veterans Affairs hospital in Detroit for transfers. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer sought the assistance at the request of the Michigan Health & Hospital Association,” the Associated Press (AP) reported Wednesday.😣
Trump must have produced those vaccines too quickly and ineffectively

Well that's true you did just copy straight from his blog but more relevant is that this was posted 7 or 8 hours ago on the previous thread that was actually discussing related matters.
Guess not only are you slow, on the wrong thread but for someone who is always criticizing others for spelling errors you also not very self aware.

and that's not breaking news either
Doublespeak is the new cornerstone of American totalitarianism. These petty tyrants know that Americans are a deeply democratic, independent, and fiercely free-thinking people. We cherish our republic and the democratic advancements made over two and a half centuries. American patriotism is deeply interwoven into the democratic experiment. One only needs to read Alexis de Tocqueville to see that.
Yet the language of saving and expanding democracy comes at the expense of the people. We have seen democracy in action over the past year. Protests against draconian government lockdowns. Protests against school board indoctrination and abuse coverups. Protests against the continual erasure of our civil liberties and destruction of civil society.
Rather than be inspired by the spirit of democracy that still enflames the hearts and souls of many Americans, the totalitarians with their media lackeys denigrate any manifestation of constitutional democratic action as “terrorism” and “ugliness.” They assert that the democratic ethos that has moved so many Americans in recent months is a dark spirit that threatens democracy rather than rejuvenating it. Oh, the irony! But that’s part of the plan.
Our new authoritarian tyrants do not want to save democracy. They want it to be extinguished. Democracy is a messy and imperfect thing. Democracy manifests itself in so many different manners and ways it breeds a uniqueness of laws and customs that horrifies the homogenous dreams of totalitarians. Real democracy, in their eyes, is something inefficient, something complicated, something subject to ever-shifting and changing winds of the human heart and soul. It must be crushed.
In place of real democracy, American totalitarians in the Democrat party and the technocratic elite in the Republican party want a managed society headed by bureaucrats and a bureaucracy whose universal vision of societal governance and order is disseminated to the local apparatuses of the government writ small: school boards, universities, businesses, etc. Hence the strong-arm tactics to get local municipalities, businesses, and schools across the country to comply with new federal and state government dictates. Any holdouts will be penalized into conformity. So much for democracy.
What should we name the new MAGA party??
I agree with him!
Former President Donald Trump put out a statement on Friday saying that Gen. Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, should be ‘tried for treason’ — a crime punishable by death — for taking steps to prevent a war with China during the Trump presidency,” Insider reports.
“In his lengthy statement, Trump skewered the contents of the book Peril by The Washington Post’s Bob Woodward and Robert Costa and called Milley ‘one of the dumber generals in the military.’”
Said Trump: “Does anybody really believe that longtime Con Man Bob Woodward, and his lightweight lapdog assistant Robert Costa, are implying in their book of fiction that I was planning to go to war with China, but that one of the dumber generals in the military called the Chinese to tell them that he will inform them if this action proceeds further. Milley may have called, but if so, he should be tried for treason.”
And again hang Mike!
Majority party
