    Sorry, actually not on that video.

    Needless to say everyone had a cellphone on them, so there are numerous videos in which you can hear people in the audience laughing

    Remember Emma Goldman's words: If Elections work to make change, they'll try to make elections illegal.

    I would not believe anything this guy says. First of all he doesn’t say why he is sick of trump.
    Note, was he drunk? What was he drinking out of that can?

    It's clear to me he deliberately released that video after news reports surfaced that he's under investigation by the Justice Department for his role in the insurrection

    And yes, he was drunk, and as we know alcohol tends to loosen the tongue ...lol..

    Summary of the Republicans who were censured for going against Trump.


    Anti-Trump Republicans are facing punishment back home. But don’t call it a civil war.

    excerpts:

    "Most notably, these state and local parties launched a barrage of censures or other forms of condemnation not long after a violent pro-Trump mob — inspired by the former president’s lie about a stolen election and egged on that day by Trump himself — stormed the Capitol intent on disrupting Congress as it formalized President Joe Biden’s win. Many of the efforts were aimed at the small number of Republicans who voted in favor of impeachment or conviction after House Democrats moved swiftly to impeach Trump on the charge of "incitement to insurrection."

    In Louisiana, the state GOP censured one of its U.S. senators, Bill Cassidy, moments after he voted to convict Trump. North Carolina's state GOP passed a similar measure aimed at Sen. Richard Burr just days later.

    In Illinois, Larry Smith, chair of the LaSalle County Republican Party and a leader in the effort to censure Rep. Adam Kinzinger after he voted to impeach Trump, told NBC News that local GOP leaders in his state are “overwhelmingly still pro-Trump,” and that the detractors amount to “a splinter group by comparison.”"


    "Not all of the condemnations were a direct result of an impeachment vote. In Arizona, the state GOP censured Gov. Doug Ducey for certifying Biden’s victory there last fall. And in Kentucky, a number of local GOP chairs have censured or rebuked Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell for blaming Trump for inciting the deadly riot — though he voted to acquit him.

    Jeff Timmer, a former chairman of the Michigan GOP who backed Biden last fall, said that rather than representing the mainstream GOP, the group of 17 Republicans "are the extremists in the party.""

    Trump Weighs 2024 Run Without Mike Pence, Allies Say

    Trump weighs 2024 White House run without Mike Pence, allies say

    excerpt:

    "Trump’s advisers have discussed identifying a Black or female running mate for his next run, and three of the people familiar with the matter said Pence likely won’t be on the ticket.

    Two advisers have suggested Trump consider South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, the people said. Donald Trump Jr. and his girlfriend, Kimberly Guilfoyle, are hosting a fundraiser for Noem on Friday at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort and home in Palm Beach. The former president is planning to make an appearance, people familiar with the matter said.

    And on Tuesday, Trump issued a public endorsement for South Carolina Senator Tim Scott’s re-election. Scott is the only Black Republican in the U.S. Senate."

    If Trump is considering a Black, Pence definitely won't be on the ticket.

    CPAC missed so many opportunities to further pay homage to Trump.

    Trump sneaking out on stage behind the singer and grabbing her crotch as she finished the national anthem would have been vintage Trump.

    Her last out-of-tune note would have been made two octaves higher and 40 dB louder.

    Trump could have reiterated his infamous remark that he can do anything because he's famous.

    Some of Trump's following would have loved it.

    These so-called "policy prescriptions" are nothing more than REPUBLICAN PARTY efforts to suppress voters of certain ethnicities, skin colors, and political outlooks. That's why they're anxious to re-draw voting districts and alter state Supreme Courts to gerrymander the districts so REPUBLICANS can't lose and Democrats - or any other party - CANNOT WIN. They want to guarantee that REPUBLICANS win almost everywhere so they can implement their "white supremacy, anti-worker, anti Jewish, anti-Catholic, neo-Nazi platforms" to install a fascist, right-wing nut-job regime. All the while suckering idiots into believing that THEY'RE "saving" the Constitution ........................ while trampling it to death!!!!!! The numbers of voters(?) who suck down this sh*t is extremely troubling ........... because it CLEARLY DEMONSTRATES how little they know about the Constitution, why it was written, and what it protects against.

    For those who do not know ......... gerrymandering is the process by which congressional voting districts are re-drawn to give clear political voting advantage to one party, so the opposing party is at a severe disadvantage when elections are held. It's become so severe and glaringly CLEAR, that voting districts have been drawn around ONE HOUSE!!! (I'm NOT making this up!!! I believe it's in Washington State? The Reader's Digest had an article on how insane this re-drawing / gerrymandering has gotten.) Others have been so cut up and distorted that voting districts look like someone fired a shotgun at a map. Districts USED TO BE drawn up by geographic regions for decades, or by economic impacts, such as rural agricultural areas - manufacturing areas, etc. But no more - and this is at the hands of THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, who has done almost all of the re-drawing of districts ............... so they CLEARLY get the voting advantage. They do this by how people register politically - Democrat, Republican, or Independent. Knowing who lives where by political affiliation - they re-draw districts using voter party labels to create districts where REPUBLICANS have greater numbers so they can't lose in an election. This is "candidates selecting their voters - rather than voters electing the candidates." CROOKED AS CROOKED GETS.

    Stupidity is KILLING the U.S.A.

    The remarks by Pence about who he refers to as 'leftists' sound like remarks about Trump and his following.

    Pence should know better than this. Trump nearly had Pence killed for not stealing the election for him.


    Pence breaks silence to condemn Democrats' sweeping voting reform bill

    excerpt:

    "Leftists not only want you powerless at the ballot box," wrote the former vice president, "they want to silence and censor anyone who would dare to criticize their unconstitutional power grab."

    The right wing always applies what they are doing to the "left" and thinks nobody will notice. But, their base falls for it every time. These people are fucking stupid.

    Over two decades of the Tea Party steadily destroying our constitution and making it all but impossible to run the government, and now they are a cult, instead of a lynch mob, because calling the entire system bullshit is not socially acceptable. The idiots will only comprehend the depths of their denial, when the lynch mob doesn't care if Donald Duck is dead, and finds someone to replace him.

    Trump’s Pentagon Blocked Troops From Getting to the Capitol Riots For Hours, DC National Guard Commander Said
    Paul McLeod, BuzzFeed News Reporter
    Reporting From Washington, DC
    Posted on March 3, 2021, at 3:06 p.m. ET

    National Guard Blames Pentagon For Capitol Riot Delay

    excerpt:

    "For hours, crowds stormed the Capitol on live TV while National Guard troops waited for permission to deploy. At one point, Walker said he loaded troops onto buses without permission in anticipation that they would be given the OK any minute.

    That green light wasn’t given until 5:08 p.m., three hours and 19 minutes after the first desperate call for help came in. Miller, in his role as acting defense secretary, actually gave the order at 4:32 p.m., acting Assistant Defense Secretary Robert Salesses said, but for some reason that direction was not relayed to the National Guard for another half hour. No explanation was given for this delay.

    “That’s an issue. There were decisions that were being made, there were communications that needed to take place, and there were actions that needed to happen,” said Salesses."
