Even your mainstream media says mainly no but there is a sergeant arms and other team people that could have done their job better.

We don't believe half of what you say putting down religion. You may be a subject matter expert on atheism but we don't mock your stupid comments.

You were entitled to your opinion but the mainstream media always wants to focus on President Trump. I know president Trump is an asshole but Nancy Pelosi is an asshole as well and the sergeant arms and other people didn't do the best job they could. I don't know why but Jim Jordan's going to really shred on Democrats after January 3rd. The supposedly inclusive idiots are going to hear from him and I hear him all the time on Fox Business News. Be prepared for the onslaught of his excellent debate skills and he put won't put up with the stupidity of Democrats trying to shut him up.

To make a long story short, there were other minions in the Democratic party that didn't do their job correctly or to the best of their ability! The January 6th supposed coup was horrible and even the soldiers of F Troop would have been a better job. I am not one that is advocating any of the idiots see I saw on January 6th at all.

Nancy Pelosi is number three in government. She is accountable but monkey smiles and avoiding the subject will not change the fact that there were other people who could have done more due diligence.

Now here is a real coup! Sure, it failed. It included armor units, it had an objective, it had Aviation assets, it took over communication facilities and announce the world what their intentions were. It wasn't a bunch of idiots and a mob like what happened on January 6th. I didn't see helicopter gunships shitting up police on January 6th, I didn't see Heavy tanks and armored vehicles blocking key intersections, setting up outer c o r d o n s and I didn't see any fighter jets blowing up communication facilities or bombing major installations including our US government facilities. Sure, a couple cops died and one assaulter got killed. It was a tragedy and probably preventable but notice the January 6th committee doesn't want to talk about the before. Doesn't want to talk about what happened in the summer of disaster that Democrats don't want to admit that they were aiding and abetting all to get big mouth president Trump out.

Now that Elon Musk bought twitter, the Democrat and leftist media get smart cone of silence has been revealed.

Whataboutism: Avoiding Topics by Raising Irrelevant Ones

what·a·bout·ism
/ˌ(h)wədəˈboudizəm/

nounBRITISH
1. the technique or practice of responding to an accusation or difficult question by making a counteraccusation or raising a different issue."the parliamentary hearing appeared to be an exercise in whataboutism"

SOURCE : https://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=88b95c63-6f35-412a-9786-d99c13c9e359


What about 'whataboutism'?

“Whataboutism gives a clue to its meaning in its name. It is not merely the changing of a subject ("What about the economy?") to deflect away from an earlier subject as a political strategy; it’s essentially a reversal of accusation, arguing that an opponent is guilty of an offense just as egregious or worse than what the original party was accused of doing, however unconnected the offenses may be.


The tactic behind whataboutism has been around for a long time. Rhetoricians generally consider it to be a form of tu quoque, which means "you too" in Latin and involves charging your accuser with whatever it is you've just been accused of rather than refuting the truth of the accusation made against you.

Tu quoque is considered to be a logical fallacy, because whether or not the original accuser is likewise guilty of an offense has no bearing on the truth value of the original accusation.”
