G.O.P. Declares Jan. 6 Attack ‘Legitimate Political Discourse’

The Republican National Committee voted to censure Representatives Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for participating in the inquiry into the deadly riot at the Capitol.

We've learned that Trump...
* fully intended to "overturn" the 2020 election
* wanted to seize voting machines
* wants to pardon 1/6 rioters and cop beaters

The Republican National Committee's response? To punish the only two Republicans who think this has no place in their party-- they censored Cheney and Kinzinger.

UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE.

Or maybe it is all too believable for this party of traitors.

1. It is mind boggling.

The Republican Party officially wants to kill Democracy.

There is no more to be said.

They must be defeated. Democrats must vote no matter what obstacles these anti-American traitors put in our way.

I think Deadline: White house with Nicolle Wallace will be a must see today.

3. Democracy is the biggest threat to white supremacy. That's why they want to kill it.

4. I guess "legitimate political discourse" routinely includes smearing shit on walls, right?

It’s the new form of communication.

5. This is likely to make Susan Collins CONCERNED!

6. She'll get over it.

7. Just another step on the path to fascism

The big effort now is to re-write history and to continue spreading lies and disinformation.

The blood is in the water after January 6th. There will be an all-out no limits attack on our democracy from this point onward. This is what these thugs have been dreaming of for decades, they now see the light at the end of the tunnel.

“This is what Republicans call ‘legitimate political discourse.’”

You listening, Rick Wilson? Meidas Touch?

14. Thanks for that link

He only walked it back when he was afraid of being impeached again. And he was impeached twice.

Why hasn’t he been ostracized by the BananaReTHUG party and M$Greedia?

15. Legitimate means lawful, seriously they're trying to change the definition!

[LymphocyteLover]

16. it's utter insanity but also incoherent as in their statement they say that those who committed

violence were wrong, and that's the whole goddamned freaking point! How can that be legitimate and wrong to go after them?

17. How do the 'moderates' and 'centrists' feel about this? nt

18. Mitt Romney criticized it, FWIW

haven't heard of any other high profile dissent
