Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Undercuts Democrats
on January 6: ‘Little Evidence of a
True Insurrection’

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 4/5/2024 7:57:17 PM

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. issued a statement on the January 6 prosecutions Friday, saying that while violent rioters deserved to be punished, many prosecutions of non-violent protesters were excessive. Kennedy’s statement undercuts the Democratic Party’s effort to portray the 2024 election as a “defense of democracy” and a referendum on the so-called “insurrection,” which Democrats blame on former President Donald Trump. Kennedy’s statement reads as follows: January 6 is one of the most polarizing topics on the political landscape. I am listening to people of diverse viewpoints on it in order to make sense of the event

Anyone watching the news on 1/6 with an open mind and skeptical of the media already knew that. When every channel simultaneously called it an insurrection something was off about the reporting. It was all choreographed.

Pretty hard to have an insurrection with no weapons and no leader.

I'm starting to wonder if there actually may be some machiavellian scheming going on here. It's abundantly clear to Jr. that his Dem party has it in for him, even to the point of Joey nixing Secret Service protection. Jr's commentary about J6 directly undercuts the D's/media's narrative and battering ram. He knows that, and this isn't sloppy or a mistake.

Little evidence? There is no evidence of an insurrection --- but a plethora of evidence that J6 was a setup by the Democrats to legitimize a fraudulent election. I don't take stealing an election lightly, and will never forget it!

A little late to the party but RFK saw what every sane and honest American saw on that day. Nancy Pelosi brought her film crew with her, AOC hid under a desk to help with the theatrics, DEI Mayor Muriel Bowser refused national Guard protection, the Capitol Police opened the doors for people to enter the building, thousands of peaceful protesters came to show support for a President who was cheated out of an election and DEI Lieutenant Michael Leroy Byrd was the only person guilty of murder on that day when he shot unarmed Ashli Babbit at point blank range. Besides the people being held unconstitutionally in jail, the entry of Criminal Joe Biden to the White House was the worst event of the day. The history books will not be kind to the democrats.

It is nice indeed to have a dimokrap that is not a slave to the Dim Donor Directives book. J6 was a legal protest, for which inadequate security was provided, which devolved into a riot as a result of triggers provided by capitol police and agents provocateurs (FBI contractors probably). The only beneficiary was the Dim Party which has raised $100s of millions from it.

It was an Ensure-ection designed by the Deep State to ensure that Congress could have an emergency adjournment (Why else, the planting of the pipe bombs other than a back-up plan?) and not allow Ted Crews' motion and others who wanted to send the electors from certain states back home to get their results verified. It was an Ensure-ection - to ensure that Donald Trump would not take office again and butcher their cash cow.

The whole thing of Jan 6 was a Peloci and FBI set-up! Peloci said she didn't like the optics of the National Guard there! That's because the optics Peloci wanted were the ones she got! Optic like people crawling up the side of the Capital steps! This is staged, crawling up side of the steps is not only stupid but silly! You can see the bottom of the steps just to the left where walking up is not hampered! Those crawlers are FBI operatives!

Donald Trump has raised $50.5 million at a Florida fundraiser for his 2024 re-election campaign - the highest amount ever raised at a single event. Saturday's $250,000-a-ticket bash was held at the $110 million Palm Beach home of Trump supporter John Paulson. The enormous amount is almost double the $26 million Joe Biden's campaign recently raised at a New York City bash which boasted the added star-power of former Democrat presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. 'It's clearer than ever that we have the message, the operation, and the money to propel President Trump to victory on November,' Team Trump told AP.

Also, Barkley doesn’t want to be a commentator on social issues, though he hasn’t shied away from it. He has a show with Gayle King on CNN. Put it this way: he’s more open about some political issues, but he will never be selected to moderate a presidential debate,

I have long predicted that normalizing transgender surgeries would be followed eventually by doctors intentionally disabling patients with Body Identity Integrity Disorder (BIID). These patients obsess that their “true selves” are quadriplegic, or amputees, or blind, and they yearn to be made that way. It is a real and anguishing condition. Some are now even calling the affliction “transable” (get it?). Well, here it comes. A doctor in Quebec “treated” a BIID patient by amputating two of his healthy fingers. Otherwise, the patient was threatening to mutilate himself. From the National Post story: The fact that there were only two fingers involved in the Quebec case, as opposed to
