And have you seen the extensive footage of them milling about peacefully in the Capitol building? Remember that fellow who was wearing the outlandish outfit with the buffalo horns? The Jan 6 Commission claimed he was a violent insurrectionist who led the riot. He got sentenced to 7 years. Kevin McCarthy, when he became speaker, released over 20,000 hours of security footage (over the protests of the Commission). They painted a very different picture of the rioters. The riot started when Capitol police started firing rubber bullets into the front of the crowd, enraging them. Nothing could be found if the fellow with the horns doing anything violent. He strolled around the Capitol escorted by two policemen. Once that came out he was released from prison. And this demonstrates how people are manipulated by video and pictures. Just like the cover of the recent "New Yorker Magazine" that showed a bunch of dressed up young white adults and the article was saying that young MAGA supporters are all white, very suggestive that they're white supremacists. But they cropped the picture to leave out the blacks who were there too. This is what we're up against on the Right. The constant dishonest manipulations to turn people against conservatives. The liberals worst fear is Trump and Republicans will be successful running the country and keep them out of power. So expect plenty of lies, plenty of manipulations going forward.
