    An example of how Trump's rhetoric riles up his followers.

    Meggs was indicted.


    Marion County residents indicted for Capitol riot, accused of being "Oath Keepers"

    excerpt:

    “Trump said It’s gonna be wild!!!!!!! It’s gonna be wild!!!!!!! He wants us to make it WILD that’s what he’s saying. He called us all to the Capitol and wants us to make it wild!!! Sir Yes Sir!!! Gentlemen we are heading to DC pack your s***,” Kelly Meggs wrote in a Facebook message, according to the indictment.

    Officers’ Injuries, Including Concussions, Show Scope of Violence at Capitol Riot
    By Michael S. Schmidt and Luke Broadwater

    Officers’ Injuries, Including Concussions, Show Scope of Violence at Capitol Riot

    excerpt:

    "“If you’re a cop and get into a fight, it may last five minutes, but these guys were in battle for four to five hours,” said Chuck Wexler, the executive director of the Police Executive Research Forum, a nonprofit that advises departments across the country on management and tactics.

    “You would be hard-pressed to find another day in history like this,” he said, “when the police encountered this level of violence in one event.”

    The horror of the siege — which officers have described as “medieval” because of brute hand-to-hand combat and the use of blunt objects as weapons — received renewed attention this week at Mr. Trump’s impeachment trial. House managers repeatedly raised the injuries as they revealed new video and audio to argue that Mr. Trump incited his supporters to overrun the Capitol while lawmakers were certifying his election loss."

    Trump is deserving to be at the top of the list of sedition suspects.

    His words at his rally made it clear that his intent was to obstruct Congress from administering its duties, the opposite of what a president should be doing.

    Pence countered Trump's seditious rhetoric by stating that he was obligated by an oath to defend the Constitution and didn't have the authority to overturn an election.

    With the criminal investigations heating up against Trump in Georgia, New York, and if you watched the Scott Pelley interview on 60 minutes with Michael Sherwin, the federal prosecutor leading the criminal investigation
    against the assault on the U.S. Capitol, Trump may be forced to launch his social media campaign behind bars or under indictment.

    Trump looks to take down Raffensperger in Georgia

    excerpt:

    "Former President Donald Trump is expected to endorse Rep. Jody Hice in a campaign to unseat Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger in next year’s Republican primary, according to three people familiar with Trump's decision.

    Trump publicly seethed about Raffensperger after the November election, when the secretary of state refused to support Trump's false claims that Georgia's 16 electoral votes were stolen from him. Top Raffensperger aides had publicly rebuked the president's conspiracy theories, warning in early December that it would lead to potential violence."

    Trump should consider enlisting the services of these people for his next insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.


    Spring break: More than 1,000 arrests as Miami Beach parties descend into chaos

    excerpt:

    "In recent weeks, South Beach in Miami has witnessed unruly crowds, fighting in the streets, stampedes and police confrontations, including the use of pepper balls, local reports said. Besides the arrests since February, at least five police officials have also been injured on the job during the ruckus."

    For that matter Trump Airlines

    The shuttle between Boston, New York, and Washington D.C. was highly profitable before being purchased by Trump.

    Somehow it crash landed

    In February 2021, Shirkey of MI said the Capitol riot was a hoax.

    Shirkey and Chatfield flew to DC to meet with Trump shortly before MI certified Biden's win. They wined and dined at the Trump hotel in DC.

    They said it was to discuss coronavirus funding for MI, but apparently it was an attempt by Trump to convince them to overturn the MI election result.


    Michigan Senate leader Shirkey calls Capitol riot a 'hoax' and 'prearranged'

    excerpt:

    "About halfway through the meeting, Shirkey was asked about "the DC thing", referring to the riot that ended with five people including a Capitol Police Officer dead.

    Shirkey responded by saying it "wasn't Trump. That's been a hoax since day one and it was all prearranged."

    He said they were brought in on busses and "arranged by someone who was funding it.":
