The “Insurrection” one year on

George Rebane

Calling and pursuing the 6jan21 Capitol riot as an ‘insurrection’ is the new litmus test for identifying those of the Left in America.

Countless leftwing naïfs across the country – e.g. Tom Durkin (here) in the 6jan22 Union – are decrying the “death of democracy”, which supposedly started with what they call a rightwing insurrection last January.  What happened then was anything but an insurrection planned and executed to destroy American democracy and replace its government.  Look up the definition of ‘insurrection’ and read some history on real insurrections.  In the meantime we may take these 'insurrections' as coming from the semantically challenged and politically agendized.

For other perspectives on the 6jan21 riot attended by rightwingers and Trump supporters, I call your attention to two WSJ pieces – ‘Democracy Isn’t Dying’ and ‘Stop Calling Jan.6 an Insurrection’.  From such perspectives we can reasonably conclude that 1/6 now conveniently serves the Left's agenda to define our division, and also to divide us further.

Victor Davis Hanson ties a nice bow on what the Democrats are actually pursuing in Washington and nation wide in his ‘Who are the Real Insurrectionists?’  It is clear to all who pay attention that the Dems have only one tune to play for their 2022 chances with an obviously debilitated and failing administration.

Recently, Democrats have been despondent over President Joe Biden’s sinking poll numbers. His policies on the economy, energy, foreign policy, the border and COVID-19 all have lost majority support.  As a result, the Left now variously alleges that either in 2022, when they expect to lose the Congress, or in 2024, when they fear losing the presidency, Republicans will “destroy democracy” or stage a coup.  A cynic might suggest that they praise democracy when they get elected, only to claim it is broken when they lose. Or they hope to avoid their defeat by trying to terrify the electorate. Or they mask their own revolutionary propensities by projecting them onto their opponents.  (emphasis added)

Do you believe and support Trump when he says "the election was stolen"?

[Bill Tozer]

Believe and support? That’s two questions.

[George Rebane]

PaulE 1107am - I believe - at the 0.667 level - that enough evidence has been uncovered and documented to give credence to the notion that sufficient 'irregularities' occurred to have had a feasible impact on the election's outcome. But, at this stage, I don't support Trump's continued efforts to keep his own election assessments in the news. The Repubs should just take what they have learned about the irregularities, and go forward with promotion of policies that will minimize the repeat of 2020.

[scenes]

Paul's little itchy Trump fixation aside, there's a version of this question that I like.

What does 'stolen' mean? Was the election stolen under that definition?

Generally, I'd say that any party that can successfully seize power has proven that it should have power, the rest is niceties.

Whether Paul's nemesis, one Donald J Trump bitches about that matter is immaterial. It goes with the territory on any close one. If I were a Democrat, I'd just be thrilled by the fact that I elected a corpse and got away with it. A sweet victory.

I can see where it felt like an insurrection though.

After comfortably watching a year's worth of federal courthouse firebombing, statue toppling, business burning, attacks on bystanders, the emergence of men-in-dresses as a dominant power, and protest protest protest, you've got Congresscritters cowering under their desks because of Buffalo Horn Guy and stealing-the-lectern guy.

I mean, anything is going to feel like an ultra-dangerous uprising if you're a Democrat. There's nothing wrong with low risk tolerance.

Dunno why President Potato is ranting on this morning. Everyone has chosen a side already, better to have a nice cuppa tea and sign some more unread directives.

[Paul Emery]

Yes, two questions Bill. By the way do you believe and support Trump when he says "the election was stolen"?

George

How many of the irregularities you refer to have been verified by valid investigations?

[Paul Emery]

scenes

What do you think Trump means when he uses the word "stolen." That's what I'm referring to.
Do you think the election was stolen by that definition?

[Gregory]

It's one question. If you believe, and if you support, it's yes. Otherwise, the answer is no.

Hillary C, knowing fully her campaign money was behind the Russia!Russia! ruse, when asked answered she had Questions about the election she lost.

I have questions about November 2020.

[Gregory]

This morning started at The Union with "Corniglio Digli" posting twice after a long absence, then Stephen Frisch of the wretchedly misnamed Sierra Business Council, who posted the following defamatory screed, since removed either by The Union or Frisch, who might have come to the conclusion he stepped over the line):

“Gregory, by supporting the false narrative that the insurrection did not occur, by denying that it led to the deaths of 5 people and later suicide of 4 more, by denying that it was an attempt to interfere with and thus reverse the results of a legally conducted election that was upheld after more than 60 failed court challenges and numerous recounts, you are an agent of the future insurrection. You are a propagandist for the future overthrow of the democratic institutions of this country. ”

Someone needs another cup of coffee.

Of course, my claim was that no one was killed by the rioters, which was absolutely true.

[George Rebane]

PaulE 1203pm - Paul, maybe 327 or 328, I dunno. But enough of them to make people like me respond like I did to your 1107am.

[Paul Emery]

Can you provide a link for me to learn more about the 327 you claim have been verified? I will checkthat out.

[Paul Emery]

Hillary had questions Gregory but she accepted the results of the election ands conceded. Trump has not done that. Do you accept the results of the election Gregory?

[scenes]

"Of course, my claim was that no one was killed by the rioters, which was absolutely true."

Ah well. The rioters killed a buncha people, until the MSM couldn't support the lie anymore and the story, as usual, collapsed.

It must have been the Russians.

'Scoops' Emery: "Trump has not done that."

"President Donald Trump conceded publicly for the first time Thursday that he will not serve a second term, stopping short of congratulating President-elect Joe Biden but acknowledging a transfer of power is now underway."

re: Niglio X @ 1:17PM

Those articles are always vaguely unsatisfying in terms of explanation.

Why are the people in Kazakh all riled up? Are there different groups? What's really up, man?

It wouldn't surprise me if it isn't simply the internet. Poor people see how much people in a different country have, decide to burn down everything to improve their lot.

Luttwak makes the point that real-deal insurrections require an out-of-power elite backing them. I wonder if that isn't true in K'istan.

PaulE 101pm - Now that you press me on it, it may have been only 216. Hard to tell without really knowing your definitions of 'verified' and 'valid investigation'.

scenes @1:49PM

"Those articles are always vaguely unsatisfying in terms of explanation. Why are the people in Kazakh all riled up? Are there different groups? What's really up, man?"

I think the most important part of the Kazakh story is that there were over a dozen police killed. And an unknown number of 'bystanders' as well. It's easy to count bodies - they can't move around a lot. Contrast that with our home-grown 'insurrection' on 1/6/21 in which zero police were killed, and one (unarmed) bystander was gunned down by the police.

So our insurrection remains the only one in recorded history (back to 3500 BC) in which no weapons were used by the rioters. However, the shields the rioters used were encrusted with some week-old mean tweets from the Tangerine Tornado. Wasn't he unelected and out of everyone's minds? Evidently not.

Ah, well yes, of course.

[Barry Pruett]

First anniversary of the dumbest "insurrection" ever attempted. Who would try to overthrow the world's superpower with no guns? Lol. Nobody, hence it was never an insurrection. It was freedom getting out of hand. In 2020, we saw that some phenomenon repeatedly all over the country with BLM. Freedom getting out of hand happens. Making it all political is just another way to divide our nation in order for the powerful to remain powerful. When folks who (rightfully or erroneously) genuinely feel to be the subject of racism and burn buildings and create anxiety, the legacy media and politicians with an agenda call it "free speech." When people who (rightfully or erroneously) genuinely feel that their voice was not heard and an election taken from them protest at and in the Capitol and create anxiety, the legacy media and politicians with an agenda call it "insurrection." Whether the feelings are based in fact is irrelevant when discussing group psychology and not addressing the real issue which is understanding why people are feeling the way that they do.

In defense of the morons that were in the Capitol a year ago, I have been there and understand the mentality. In 1993, when Rutskoi and some other guys tried to overthrow Yeltsin, I was there in the crowd when the tanks rolled up and started shelling the Russian White House (their Capitol building kind of). Folks were cheering and laughing. It was kind of nuts, and speaking with Russians also in the crowd, they commented how peaceful it is in the USA. In any event, when the shooting seemed to stop and it was over, we went into the Russian White House which had been the object of the tank shells. We walked around, people were looting their national legislative building stealing televisions and cheese and carrots of all things. While we were in the building, the shooting started again, and we booked. We ran out of the building during the gunfire, and I went straight to my flat where my boss had told us to stay. Similar to a lot of folks in our Capitol on January 6, I was not in the Russian White House to help insurrectionists. I was just walking around and the opportunity to check things out firsthand presented itself, so I took it. When I tell my children the story, they say the following: Dumb. Moronic. Idiot. And then inevitably they accuse me of being an American spy who was in Russia to gather intelligence. All true except the spy part.

My point is, while there were certainly people with ill-intent in the Capitol on January 6 (the guys with zip tie handcuffs should be locked up for sure), most of these people did no damage, did not take anything, and were just walking around watching. DOJ (and Paul) should be making that distinction, and because they don't appear to be, they are politicizing the events of that day. I trust my fellow man enough to know that the rational ones see January 6 (and the BLM riots) for what it was. Freedom getting out of hand. Both BLM and January 6 rioters should be punished accordingly. No question. Because the two groups aren't being punished equally, folks see the politics behind the narratives. And that is what people are sick of - the politicians.

[Scott O]

George 2:30 - "Hard to tell without really knowing your definitions of 'verified' and 'valid investigation'."
You're asking Paul?
You forgot to qualify verified and valid with the modifier of whether or not Paul agrees with the facts or not.
If he does not, then your facts are never verified or valid.

[Scott O]

Barry 3:37 - Very well put. But of course nuance and a complicated and unfocused story line don't fit well in the allotted time of the one hour news slot.
It also doesn't fit well with the fairy tales the left wing likes to tell about the folks that actually believe in our system of governance.
As I pointed out at the time it happened I would have warned them that they were not menacing the town's merchants. They were getting too crazy too close to "people that are important". And you will very well be shot dead.
And the last - "No question. Because the two groups aren't being punished equally, folks see the politics behind the narratives."
Eggs-ackly!
But we saw the politics waaaaay before Jan 6th and the slow learners actually thought if political protesters could loot and burn with impunity then surely they could get uppity in DC.
Sorry boss - it don't work that way.

[Don Bessee]

Looks like the propaganda ministries lap dogs failed in trying to sell the party line -

Among those who said Jan. 6 was "a protest that went too far," a whopping 80% were Republicans and 69% were Democrats. Those who described themselves as Trump voters felt that way even more so with 84% while 70% of Biden voters felt the same.

Notably, 80% of independents also described Jan. 6 as a "protest that went too far.

To be fair, this country doesn't hold a candle to the French. Those guys know how to have a political uproar fandango. Just wait until they all notice that 1/2 of the country is Muslim. Hoo-whee, let the good times roll.

One lesson from The Insurrection is the amount of personal loyalty that Trump could arouse. It isn't like this was a Republican thing, it was a Trump thing.

Smith has also recently traveled to Portland, Oregon, according to the official.

Gualtieri said that people such as Smith are among the "most concerning individuals" because of the lack of criminal history.

"Smith has no criminal history, no social media accounts that we can find, and there's no prior intelligence information about Smith. Smith is what we call a sleeper, and these are the most concerning individuals because there's no opportunity to intervene and thwart their criminal activity until they actually act," Gualtieri said.

Smith is being held on a $300,250 bond and was charged with three counts of possession or discharge of a destructive device as well as one count of loitering and prowling.

"We're fortunate in this situation that something caused Smith to flee before he ignited the explosive device and the deputies were able to apprehend him," Gualtieri said.

"On January 6, there was a rally in Clearwater, Florida, of about 85 protesters, who came out in support of Jan. 6, 2021, defendant Jeremy Brown.

But police picked up a man when they saw him running suspiciously near the rally. The man was dressed all in black with a black mask. Police arrested the man, identified as Garrett Smith, 22.
The police searched his backpack and allegedly found a pipe explosive device which they determined to be “active,” so they cleared all the ralliers out of the area. The police also found a “Direct Action Checklist.” Direct action is a term frequently used by leftist groups like Antifa. On the list were a bunch of things like pepper spray, smoke rockets, a laser pointer (which Antifa used to aim at police officers’ eyes in Portland), flammable rags, and construction nails — making it clear he wasn’t planning on attending a tea party. He also had a helmet with the “iron front” three arrow logo on it — a logo commonly used by Antifa.

Name another time that a man with no political constituency achieved the Presidency, even Lincoln had backers. Basically he took some money (far less than the Democrats used), a bullhorn called 'twitter', and, most importantly, the ability to move a crowd to become King of the Nation.

The littlest congressional commie critter aka the queen of lockdowns and masks bailed on the rotten apple and may have brought her kooties to FLA -

The positive test comes shortly after the Congresswoman was seen without a mask in a Miami bar, according to video that circulated on social media

I'd love it if Trump ran again-the biggest political loser in over 120 years. What's not to like about that? Go Trump-I'm pulling for you. So are the Dems

[Walt]

Paul's desperation has set in. What lies you going to use this time?
P**sy grabbing sure didn't work, no matter how many times you tried it. You never could comprehend the difference between "could" and "did".

Funny, you still can't come up with anyone than can come close the beating Trump.

Your Proggys are already lying through their ass. "everything" is now Jan. 6TH.

Gotta federalize the elections. States are ruining their ability to cheat. Now how will they get around that pesky Constitution that states, states control their own elections.?

[Walt]

Embot states,,
"DEMS want Trump to run again",, Then why are they trying every way possible to stop him?? You don't read what they are really saying are you Embot?

Trying to tag Trump as in insurrectionist? A little thing called solid proof is sorely lacking. And NO ONE has been charged with it.

You say your side wants him to run,,, care to prove that statement?

[Paul Emery]

Proven loser Walt. What's not to like about that?

[Walt]

One trick ponytail.
Then why is he beat you Lefties like a cheap drum?
Too bad your Lefty lies won't work this time.

Hummm No proof of Proggys looking forward to Trump's running.... Now why am I not surprised?? Another Paul Emery LIE.

[Barry Pruett]

Walt @ 321p. Set up the argument that republicans cheated in the election in 2022. Whatever the socialists do, they gaslight you and say no the other side is doing it.

[chowniglio]

Oooh....Frantic Punchy is frantic.

[Walt]

AAHHHH Yes.. If they can do it we can do it better.

I do believe that have already started Barry. All those states that have passed vote integrity laws. " That's cheating".

They know that can't win in a truly fair election.

So Emery,, taking down names off headstones yet?

[Walt]

Then this shows up.
https://dailycaller.com/2022/01/09/pelosi-accuses-republicans-undermining-democracy-election-integrity-laws/

“There is nothing more important for us to do than protect our constitution and our democracy,” Pelosi told host Margaret Brennan. “What the Republicans are doing across the country is really a legislative continuation of what they did on January 6, which is to undermine our democracy, to undermine the integrity of our elections,"

See how the fear of the loss of power affects the queen?

[Walt]

How soon they forget what THEY did.
The "insurrectionists" when Trump got elected.
https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2021/01/03/303619-n303619

"As we observed, Democrats have voiced objections to the count against the three last Republican presidents. Of course, when they did it it was ‘protecting Democracy.’ Now that the Republicans are raising objections, suddenly, doing so is ‘sedition’ and ‘treason’ to the Democrats."

[Bill Tozer]

Lefty Math: 1/6 = 9/11.

By now, it is safe to say that we can all agree that math is not a particularly strong suit of our political opponents on the Dark Side of the Moon.

Lol. If anyone would break in and destroy a exhibit, display, or museum inside the Smithsonian, it would be the racist Blue Mob.

‘Joy Reid: On January 6, I Worried Rioters Would Destroy Black History Museum’.

(Channeling Punchy)

“The events of January 6th were certainly anti-democratic, but they were also deeply rooted in anti-blackness,” Reid asserted. She said the rioters brandished a “particularly gruesome symbol of anti-black terrorism” by using a noose to threaten white Vice President Mike Pence. “They wanted to lynch him, because he refused to reverse an election that black and brown people and people of color, [Asian-American and Pacific Islander] people, had … won,” she said without evidence.”

“We cannot forget all the racist hate on display on January 6th. I mean, there was a noose displayed on gallows outside of the Capitol.” —Dumb Don Lemon.
