It’s January 6th! Not normally a date to party down, but if I were to celebrate it, this is a good way to do so: arrest more insurrectionists. Three more traitors got picked up from their hideout in Florida today. Three years after the fact…the wheels do grind exceedingly slow, but it means we’ll be getting these events for a while to come.
Stupid dupes. I feel no sympathy for these people who challenged the law in order to support a colossal fool and fraud like Trump.
Ray Ceeya says
The wheels do grind slowly but we’ll be hearing final arguments in Trump’s New York fraud trial on Thursday. They should have done this shit years ago but The American Justice System is archaic and hasn’t kept pace with the 21st century.

The idiot doesn’t know when to stop.

According to NBC, those three had all been indicted in 2021 but became fugitives. The wheels of justice turn slowly but grind fine.

Am I wrong for wanting these a-holes to suffer long and exceeding slowly?

Amazing, isn’t it? They joined a spiritual war of good versus evil…on Trump’s side.

There are a bunch of Congress people for whom the wheels aren’t grinding at all.
Robert Webster says
And you claim the bible prophesies are wrong. Well, they got this one right. Only the number of the beast on their foreheads is not 666, but MAGA.

@5 I don’t know what he’s like otherwise, but good on him for telling those seditious fucks off.

They are – but they are not on the side they think they are.

Four years on and the man who tried to destroy Democracy, who led an attempted coup that nearly saw democratically elected members of Congress lynched including his own Vice-President, is leading in the polls to become POTUS again..
What
The
Actual
Fuck!?
USA? The Fuck!? Really?
Also the year 2024 and we have rising fasism, nazism and Slaver Traitor Konfederates but no serious gun restrictions or Climate action and .. fucking hell.. why? What? The fuck.
(Needs too many fucks for emphasis than even I can type here.)
But, hell, its only the rest of our lives, the futrure and pretty much all life on our planet at stake so..meh?

Only the number of the beast on their foreheads is not 666, but MAGA. The more modern translation of it.

Don’t call these fascist scum “dupes!” These are not simple, easily-manipulated, Rubens, tricked into being bigots by the dastardly 1%. These “people”* worship the same religious and racist bullshit their white trash descendants held when they first oozed their way onto this continent.
There is no educating them. There is no fixing them. They knew exactly what they were getting into, and all of them their getting are wrist slaps rather than the bullet through the head they all—from the Q Shaman all the way up to Trump himself—fucking deserve! Sadly, I have to settle with just Ashli Babbit.

I find it amazing that the FBI is rellying so heavilly on regular citizens to find all the seditionists. Its amasing how good at it some folks in the US have got, having better computer equipment and resources at home than the feds.
