The Other McCain looks at Democrats, Trump Derangement Syndrome, and the non-stop tantrums of the carnival barking left.
Ah, the ease with which the left lies is astounding
“… the terrible violence … scrambling to get more police and military reinforcements on the scene … the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers and insurrectionists … the attempted political coup and violent insurrection … the mobilizing of a domestic violent extremist movement …”
Listening to that, I was struck by how easily these hyperbolic phrases tumbled out of Raskin’s mouth, as evidence of how insulated inside the echo chamber Democrats have become and, of course, the “journalist” Willie Geist is part of that echo chamber. He is as objective about the J6 Committee as my teenage daughter is objective about Harry Styles.
The predicate of the J6 “investigation,” the fundamental tenet of the belief system in which the Capitol riot was an “attempted political coup,” is that there is no reason to believe that the 2020 election was fraudulent. If no reasonable person could suspect that the election was stolen, then what happened on J6 was an illegal “insurrection,” an attempt to overthrow the legitimate government. Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) are unwilling to hear the arguments made or to examine the evidence cited by those who claim that Biden was not legitimately elected. The bedrock assumption of Democrats is that Biden was elected in a landslide — 81 million votes! the most popular presidential candidate in history! — and thus they view any expression of doubt about Biden’s legitimacy as “insurrectionist” crazy-talk.
This is not how discourse in a democratic society is supposed to operate. Controversies over public policy would never occur, if we all shared the same set of beliefs, and so the fact that there is controversy about any subject (in this case, the legitimacy of the 2020 presidential election) requires a public hearing of arguments on both sides of the dispute, so that the electorate may be fully informed. The J6 Committee deliberately avoided such a discussion. Indeed, the whole purpose of this committee (which, by the way, lacks legitimacy under the normal rules of House procedure) was to criminalize doubt about the 2020 election.
Excellent summation that is. The Democrats, with their media cheerleaders have ignored any information or questions about the 2020 vote. Whether or not it was stolen, or completely upright and just should be looked into. Yet, from the first, that was made impossible because of leftist narratives and political shenanigans. And the Jan. 6 proceedings was a sham, a propaganda show, not an investigation. Like I said, I know not whether the election was tainted. But, I do know many on the left planted seeds to spur on such allegations, and that gives me pause.
Funny thing about those violent insurrectionests,intent on overthrowing the government. Since they are obviously right wing people, we can reasonably assume they understand, appreciate and live by the second amendment. So, statistically, they are part of the most well armed citizens of any country. And yet, these violent insurrectionests showed up to overthrow the government of the United States UNARMED!!
There is NO SUCH THING as a “lie” to the left. There are only words they like and words they don’t like. If a collection of words serves their needs then those words are perfectly acceptable….the TRUTH is totally irrelevant to them.
BINGO
