The idea that EVERY one of our elected representatives in Congress who were the targets of that insurrection still express doubts that it was impeachable conduct by DOPUS should tell you how far gone the Republican Party is - Heck 100s of them still voted to object in the immediate aftermath including the #1 and #2 ranked leaders in the HoR.

Some are saying the new continuing release of more incriminating and graphic video will make a difference - I just don't buy it.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) who has only been in Congress for less than a week was live-tweeting Nancy Pelosi’s location to terrorists as they stormed the U.S. Capitol earlier this week. Frankly, she should be arrested or, at least, expelled. See the 14th Amendment:

"No Person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."

It's pretty simple and straightforward.
She's the a-hole who said she was bringing and would carry a gun in Congress. Absolutely agree if she was tweeting as suggested.

Now this is the right wing tough guys I remember from Charlottesville. Over the weekend they called for a protest / riot? at Twitter Headquarters this morning. The appointed time came and went, and no one showed but a couple counter-protestors. :lol:

She first shared that the lawmakers had been moved to the House chambers. Then, she tweeted out the "Speaker has been removed from the chambers."

While Ms Boebert did not provide specific details on Ms Pelosi's location, critics allege she was attempting to aid the rioters who were searching for her.

Charles Manson never killed anyone. He just convinced his followers to do it for him.

Haven't seen the exact tweets, but according to this she said they'd been moved the House chambers and then was specific about the Speaker no longer being in the House chambers. Don't need to look for Pelosi here.

She should be done.

If she was sending a DM to members in the mob. Otherwise, she can just say she was telling the Twitterverse what was going on, & letting the public know the Reps we still ok & the Speaker had been evacuated. It's a stretch to claim she was providing tactical intel to the mob.

That's not your call. Tell it to the people who voted for her & sent her to DC on their behalf. Each of them has as much say as you do.

What is happening is great. If you contribute to this election lie, you're going to be held accountable.

RT @kylegriffin1: Breaking WaPo: The Secret Service has indicated that it was investigating an officer who posted comments on Facebook in which she accused lawmakers who formalized Biden's win of treason and echoed Trump's conspiracy theories about election rigging. https://t.co/Rb7i2LIzs5

I recall last Mem Day, several folks here found it amusing that Trump was taken to a WH bunker, as protesters in Laf Park rushed the WH perimeter.

https://apnews.com/article/a2326518da6b ... 1ec85f5d7f

Those same folks should have found last Wed's events at the Capitol to be a laugh riot.

The same folks accused Trump of overreacting & mocked Barr for protecting the WH.
Too bad the Capitol Police & the DC Mayor learned nothing from that experience.
Instead, BLM Plaza was established as a permanent battle space. Well done.

I don’t remember the protesters getting over the White House fence, entering the White House, trashing the Oval Office, sitting for pictures at the Resolute Desk, or getting into T****’s bedroom in the private living quarters.

Keep defending these morons and criminals. It makes you look as bad as they are. As for her constituents, there is a procedure in Congress for sanctioning garbage behavior like this - explusion. Voters in her district can then elect somebody else. Nobody is saying they go unrepresented - just not by her.

So you agree that Hawley and Cruz don't get to make the call they made...based on your logic above.
