I'm going to be so irritated that when these people get pardoned on the 19th. Hopefully Trump won't wanted to be associated with such low class people.


They don't think what they did was criminal. We The People and all that bullshit.

How can they get pardoned when they havent even been to trial yet?

I am honestly surprised these guys just....went home? If I did something this loving criminal, I'd be going underground.

Its even more suprising the militias are not trying to hide these guys.

As mentioned, they don't think they're doing anything wrong and they have pretty explicit backing from the President and a sizable part of the party he has taken over. They've also probably never face real consequences for anything in their lives and have no idea of the level of pain coming their way provided dear leader doesn't blanket pardon the lot.

Reports are already coming out that Trump was displeased with how "low class" his mob of followers looked, so I have no doubts that he'd replace them with thugs "straight out of central casting."

It's always amazing to me how these people are the ones that think sensitivity and tears are for women and sissies, but once the consequences of their actions are negative or they reach an outcome they don't like, they're nearly immediately crying for how unfair it is.

Looking like they'll ask for UC on a 25th amendment messaging bill, that gets denied, then they drop in the privileged impeachment resolution. Likely vote on that on Wednesday, due to the mandatory 2-day waiting period on House bills.

At least 25 troops under investigation for terrorism in connection with Capitol riot

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2021/01/10/25-troops-under-investigation-terrorism-related-riot-capitol/6618295002/

WASHINGTON – At least 25 troops are under investigation for terrorism related to Wednesday's siege at the Capitol, according to a Defense official and a member of Congress.

Rep. Jason Crow, a Democrat of Colorado and a former Army Ranger, said he spoke with Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy on Sunday and was told that "at least 25 domestic terrorism cases have been opened as a result of the assault on the Capitol."

The troops are suspected of taking part in the insurrection that shut down Congress as it formalized President-elect Joe Biden's Electoral College victory, said a Defense official, who was not authorized to comment on the law enforcement investigation. Five people died, including a Capitol Hill police officer, after the pro-Trump mob overwhelmed security lines.

Members of the military are sworn to protect the Constitution. It is not clear if they would face military courts martial or prosecution in civilian court.

“We are engaged in identifying all of those who took part in breaching the Capitol, regardless of their affiliation,” Justice spokesman Marc Raimondi said Sunday.

The Pentagon also has been asked to review all members who will be a part of the security detail for next week's inauguration ceremony to ensure the are "not sympathetic to domestic terrorists," Crow said.
