A brief reminder of what a peaceful transfer of political power in America once looked like, until today’s traitorous Republican Party + seditious sore losers like Donald Trump came along.

Reminder that today is Epiphany, the day we celebrate the Wise Men visiting baby Jesus to bring gifts and worship Him.
Do not let the D.C. swamp creatures overshadow this holiday with their “insurrection” fear mongering.
Do not let “January 6th” become the new “9/11”
Go get (or bake) a king cake/Rosca de Reyes. Go to church (today and/or tomorrow). Sing We Three Kings. Ignore people who want to make this day about politics or about “extremists”.
Today is about recognizing (as the Wise Men did) the true eternal King of kings, the Prince of Peace, not about political powers that will rise and fall and cannot last forever.

Can you believe it’s already been 3 years? Happy anniversary to the attempted insurrection everyone saw coming but no one took seriously.
Oh yeah and the insurrectionists were going to hold congress hostage until they sent in fake electors, this shit would be scary if Trump supporters were actually competent.

An Australian lawyer's view of Trump being the front runner for the GOP presidential nomination
As an Australian living in a constitutional democracy and a defence lawyer I’m finding the whole Trump saga extremely disturbing. Disturbing that an individual who has attacked democratic norms and values, sneered at the jurisdiction of the courts and justice system and attempted to destroy any or all of the tenets of democracy, freedom for minorities and common decency is the front runner for the Republican nomination for president and if successful could have all federal convictions and charges brought against him expunged or otherwise dismissed. Had Trump been subject to Australian law he wouldn’t be a contender for any political position, he’d have challenges being appointed a dog catcher because no political party in Australia would have either defended or sanctioned his behaviour and he would have most certainly been expelled from every political party, no matter how conservative or left leaning. The Republican parties blind support of Trump that could land him back in the White House is a real and present danger not just to America but to the free world and risks American alliances carefully developed and nurtured over decades since the Second World War. Careful consideration should be taken when appointing a person to such power over national security, nuclear arms and a judicial system and diplomatic network which he has already demonstrated a willingness to weaponise in his own interest.* --Richard Busuttil, Australia, commenting on a NY Times opinion column
Seen through the eyes of this Australian lawyer, the Republican Party's decision to keep backing the traitorous Trump seems not only incredibly corrupt, but foolhardy and frightening.
Trump's comeback would not be possible if a majority of prominent Republicans had denounced him--and preferably impeached him after his attempted coup.
Clearly, Trump's behavior would not have been tolerated by many people in Australia or by many people in other affluent constitutional democracies. (Even Brazil has moved faster to prosecute Bolsonaro for spreading false information about the Brazilian election system.)
The character of the American people who vote for Trump must also be in question by the people in many constitutional democracies around the world.
If the U.S. reelects Trump, America will no longer be considered a beacon for freedom and democracy, nor the leader (or even a leader) of "the free world."
We as a nation will be in freefall, moving rapidly towards autocracy and neofascism.
And the world outside the U.S. will know it, years before it finally dawns on many Americans that by voting for Trump, they helped to destroy our democratic republic.

I know we are still freaking out about SCOTUS and Roe, but there was also a surprise January 6th Committee Hearing Today!
Their witness was Chief of Staff Mark Meadows’s executive assistant Cassidy Hutchinson and, whew boy, was information dropped.
Here are some tweets:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(I’d greatly appreciate if someone could write out these Tweets bc I’m on mobile)
Basically the rundown:
Trump knew people with weapons were at the Capitol on Jan 6th
CoS Meadows also knew there were armed people and did not look up from his phone when an alarmed Hutchinson told him what was happening
He also shut the car door on her 2X when she tried to give him security updates during the rally at the Eclipse over a period of at least 25 minutes
Trump was mad that his crowd size wasn’t big enough for the rally photo op because security wouldn’t let people with weapons through and people didn’t want their weapons to be confiscated. Trump wanted the MAGS to be taken down because he knew “the people weren’t there to hurt [him]”
The non-Rudy lawyers practically begged Hutchinson not to let Trump join the riot at the Capitol because they could get in trouble for multiple crimes.
When Trump was told in the car by security that they were not going to the Capitol, but were going back to the White House, Trump first tried to take the wheel of the car and then TRIED TO CHOKE HIS HEAD OF SECURITY WHO WAS TRYING TO STOP HIM
Back at the WH, 45 threw a hissy fit that included throwing his lunch at the wall. Apparently, this was a continuous behavior of his
Trump agreed with the rioters call to hang Mike Pence and that they “were not doing anything wrong”
Multiple lawyers, Congress people, FOX News hosts, Ivanka, Don Jr tried to get Meadows to get Trump to do something but Meadows said that Trump “didn’t want to see anyone”
Only the threat of cabinet members invoking the 25th amendment made him agree to tweet out the video telling rioters to go home and that “we love you”
During the Jan 7th statement, Trump wanted to pardon the rioters but WH lawyers said “absolutely not”
A lot of people in Trumpworld pleaded the 5th for every single question they were asked, including General Flynn when asked if he believed in the peaceful transfer of power
The committee ended the hearing with depositions from people they interviewed, basically saying they’ve been threatened by people in Trumpworld to not say anything, which is witness tampering
It was wild.

Holy shit!
“The parents' attorney suggested the cellphone records show Jones lied on the stand because he insisted he doesn't use email and couldn't find any messages related to Sandy Hook on his phone.”
Alex Jones’ lawyers accidentally(?) sent the lawyers for the Sandy Hook parents a treasure trove of his text messages! And!!! And the January 6th Committee might subpoena them, perhaps for criminal proceedings?

In its ignominious anniversary week, the collapse of the official narrative of Jan 6th has never been in more obvious collapse. But some simply can't let go...
RANT TIME!
