Typical MAGAt filth.

It's good that NPR is getting its "licks" in before the Trump administration finds a way to torch it's funding.

I just assume all are criminals and pedos.
That assumption is right 95% of the time.

It was just a matter of time before the------------- would start pardoning other rapists.

Fed: your prediction has already come to pass. Last evening on "All Things Considered" it was reported that the FCC is going after local public radio stations for the sponsorship spots they run. Apparently some think these spots are too much like commercials. NPR directly is not being challenged, just the affiliate stations. The report also stated that NPR and its member stations follow FCC rules and guidelines in the promotional spots aired. I guess the rules have changed, and a bunch of stations are headed for double secret probation...

Interesting.

The people who rioted with CHAZ never had their "rap sheets" looked at.

I wonder why?

re: #6

You're deflecting for traitors to the country

#6 - deflecting and wrong as usual. A total of 44 people were subsequently arrested as a result of the CHAZ riot. For instance:
www.justice.gov
www.justice.gov

Back to the subject: We've already seen rearrests of several of these J6 criminals, and at least one shot and killed in police interaction, the felon possessing a gun, illegally. There were some really bad criminals released and pardoned by Trump. But they "love"him, so it's OK.

Remember this? Trump called for the removal/shutdown of the metal detectors because they were slowing down armed people from entering a rally of his supporters on January 6. He said they weren't there to hurt him. Think about that.

#8 And Democrats rejected his request for National guard troops while 23 FBI agents were there. And the tired argument was that those agents weren't there is an official capacity, but surprisingly none were arrested for doing the exact thing that others who were arrested did.
Bottom line, J6 was used extensively by the Dems to win the election because they couldn't win on record or policy. The American people spoke and said enough is enough. So go have your temper tantrums and fix your failed party.

The president is in charge of the National Guard through the Department of Defense in Washington DC. Nice try again slick.

Those arguments have been debunked.

But it's interesting how Trump and his supporters tell us that the Jan 6 rioters were innocent AND that they should have been stopped by the National Guard.

They pull back the rocks and the magats scurry out.

Let's also not forget they were BLM/Antifa and yet he pardons them anyways.

His lies aren't the problem. The problem is there are 74,000,000 people so TERMINALLY STUPID that they lack the common sense to stop when he says five lies all that contradict the each other and ask why they contradict each other.

@#10 ... Bottom line, J6 was used extensively by the Dems to win the election ...

Pres Biden did win the 2020 election, and the election took place before J6.
