on Her Jan. 6 Committee

Original Article

Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced the resurrection of her January 6 witch hunt in the form of a partisan committee, already having failed at the Senate impeachment trial to prove Donald Trump ‘incited’ rioters at the Capitol.Liz Cheney will be the lone Republican on Nancy Pelosi’s committee. The Wyoming Republican joined the ranks of anti-Trump Democrats by agreeing to be part of Pelosi’s star chamber.“Former President Donald Trump’s top GOP nemesis Liz Cheney will serve on a committee created by House Democrats to investigate the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol,” the Washington Examiner reported.

Nope, no partisans there. Liz has nothing to lose, as I’m sure her time representing the great state of Wyoming is short anyway.

President Trump goes right to the heart of the matter. Who did shoot Ashli Babbitt? The family deserves to know and the rest of America rightly wants to know. This is just another democrat cover-up. Pelosi created this committee because she needed to control the narrative. She is covering her own bony backside. As Speaker it was her responsibility to secure the Capitol Building. Instead you can see clearly that her lackeys were holding doors open and ushering people inside. Democrats needed to label Trump supporters as domestic terrorists and what better way than to create a false flag. This whole debacle was nothing more than a Pelosi driven stunt so they could cry “insurrection”. They had to create a distraction from the certification of the Presidential election. No way they wanted any testimony regarding the massive fraud that had been uncovered to be heard by the American people. That had to be stopped at all costs. Isn’t it interesting that they certainly managed to certify the election results later that day even though they were “running for their very lives”, some to the point of even requiring therapy to deal with the mental trauma. Then Pence saved the day! He was privy to every piece of evidence that was uncovered so far and should have been very troubled by the absolute hubris and criminality by democrats but carried on and never once mentioned the blatant irregularities. He just did the job which, by the way, set us on the path to destruction we are on today which has given democrats complete control of the government, something that the majority of Americans did not vote for. Yes, Ashli Babbitt was a victim of murder most likely set into place by Nancy Pelosi. While I doubt she ordered her murder, she put into motion the very climate needed to make it happen. The only insurrectionists that day were democrat operatives. They were there specifically to incite violence aided and abetted by Nancy Pelosi’s security police. This committee was specifically created to be used as a weapon to wound President Trump. They must keep their insurrection narrative going because if the truth every is told, it is going to be very bad for the democrats. Trump won. They know he won and they know we know he won. This is the biggest crime in the history of this country and one that has the power to destroy the Republic. However, the Republican leadership is invested in the status quo and refuses to fight for the votes of 75+ million Americans. How in the world are we supposed to have any faith that they will demand justice for an unarmed 14 year Air Force veteran murdered right in the Capitol? Or the dozens upon dozens of individuals who are right now being held as political prisoners in a DC jail? Aren’t Mc & Mc just profiles of courage and integrity? President Trump is right. We do not even know the extent of systemic corruption that is embedded in the government.

Here is how we know that President Trump did not instigate storming the Capitol on January 6th. There were well over half a million patriots there that day. If he had said to storm the Capitol, Nancy Pelosi and other active participants in the coup(s) against the Constitution and the President of the United States would be dead.

Who killed Ashli Babbitt? Google ‘David Bailey’ and there’s your prime suspect. David Bailey is a Brazilian immigrant, Capitol police officer, BLM supporter, and rabid anti-Trumper. He stated as much in his rants posted on his FB page and Twitter feeds. Oddly enough he deleted his Twitter account and Bailey’s FB page was frozen on/after 6 January. Since then Bailey has been off the grid although his digital fingerprints remain on internet archives and via his fellow travelers on FB and Twitter. There’s no crime in publicizing David Bailey’s name and his past. He is innocent until proven guilty but he is as much fair game in the public square as a black man fatally shooting (at point blank range) an unarmed white female veteran as every white police officer getting the woke mob/msm treatment plastering their names after fatally shooting black miscreants.

Ashli Babbitt was NOT trying to crawl through a broken window! I can’t believe that even conservative sites are still telling that lie. Who tries to crawl through a window which is filled with shards of broken glass? And the shooter’s name is Michael Leroy Byrd. He’s a capitol cop and there are numerous photos of him wearing that distinctive black and white bead bracelet - the same one which is seen on his wrist in the video as he holds up his gun and shoots Babbitt. He’s being protected because of his melanin content and his connections to Pelosi.

Reading the article, I drew the conclusion that they know exactly who killed Ashli Babbitt but are covering it up. Why are they covering it up? Again, from reading the article, I drew the conclusion that it is because in this case we have a white woman shot and killed by a black man, and Queen Nancy doesn't want to touch that one with a ten foot pole.

You’re right #8, that statement is pure propaganda. I saw the video of her being shot. She was standing several feet from the wall with two Cops RIGHT beside her holding assault weapons at the ready. Who would benefit from a riot in the proximity if a Trump rally? DIMS. Who did benefit from the “riot”? DIMS Who was instantly ready with a complete marketing campaign to exploit it to attack their enemies? DIMS Who was in charge of security that day? DIMS Who was practicing rioting all summer 2020?

Nancy wants to make sure she and her committee control the outcome of this investigation. This will get media attention and they think it will help in 22 elections. I would like to see another committee formed by the people to come up with hard facts and present this finding in a professional way and debate the corrupt House committee. Perhaps Liz Cheney will find some WMD's in the capitol somewhere and blame it on President Trump. Isn't it pathetic how hate can destroy a brain and human soul. No doubt she is getting compensated from special defense contractors.

It is this type of continuous outrage that makes my eyes bleed and my brains melt & drip out my nose! We all know damn well EXACTLY who did the panic shooting of Ms. Babbitt. A true heroine, who, in a more sane, future world should be remembered and lauded the way Nathan Hale is today! I pray a statue to her is in Lafayette Square some day. But where are the Republicans demanding an answer? Why is this point not being screamed out every five minutes? Why isn't the shooter's name, address and picture thrown around the way Derek Chauvin's has been. This is why we need a revamping of the Republican party in general and the RNC in particular. (BTW --- I return every fundraising letter from them with "0" in the box for "donated amount" and I scrawl "Who killed Ashli Babbitt?" on the form.) If the shoe was on the other foot, UpChuck & Nasty would be on the Capitol steps every day demanding action and the DNC would be suing. From our side we get sunset crickets.

As #8 correctly points out, Michael Leroy Byrd murdered Ashli Babbitt. The video evidence is clear. He is being kept out of sight for now, hoping that the news cycle about his shooting her in the head in cold blood will go away. Forget about it, Byrd. Your life is over, pal. The law WILL catch up with you and your boss sooner or latter. But, for now, your melanin levels in your skin will cover for you.

National Geographic posted an unhinged and unscientific tweet on Independence Day saying fireworks are racist because they affect communities of color.What complete BS. This is what can be described as “scientism” and NOT “science.” There is absolutely no proof to support this theory. In fact, in cities like St. Louis and New York City, minorities shoot off guns on New Year’s Eve and the 4th of July. This is much more dangerous than sniffing fireworks smoke for a night.

Speaking in the Capitol building to the citizens of Washington, D.C., the secretary of state commemorated the Declaration of Independence and attacked the legitimacy of autocracy and colonialism. Understandably, his contemporaries were struck by its belligerence. But so misunderstood is the speech that isolationists to this day use it to advocate against the kind of foreign policy Adams himself practiced.When Adams argued that the Declaration of Independence was "the only legitimate foundation of civil government" and had "demolished at a stroke the lawfulness of all governments founded upon conquest,"

Those of Joe Biden’s public behaviors that align with classic dementia symptoms are escalating. In the past few days, he strongly exhibited two symptoms: A type of belligerence that’s a cover-up for confusion and memory loss and a paranoid fear of those in charge of him. I used to spend a lot of time in the company of doctors. What always fascinated me were the tales they told of dealing with patients with early-stage dementia. The most interesting point they made was that elderly people, so as not to lose face or admit their own fears, are superb at deflecting the questions aimed at assessing their cognitive skills and memory.
