    Surely, even you can see that stopping the count of the Electoral College would have the effect on potentially not allowing the new government to take over in 14 days?? Then, during that time, the non-violent, state run part of the coup would take over.... the primary goal of these morons was to stop the EC counting for an unspecified period of time...

    It all makes sense if you can stop looking at the trees and see the forest for once...

    Anyway, for months, I've been listening to the pathetic mewling "Where are the serious charges?"

    Voila.....

    And the "seditious conspiracy" could be used against any protestor against the government. So 11 people out of the thousands there, the over 700 arrested is the "grand conspiracy to overthrow the government"? I await to see how 11 people seriously believed they could take over the government and decree Trump President and how exactly he would have taken office.

    Are you unfamiliar with the word OR?

    They are not charged with "conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them."

    They are charged under the section that prohibits hindering or delaying the execution of any law of the United States.

    It doesn't matter, you are referring to a spin cycle aka misinformation.

    I understand. Totally another "emperor has no clothes moment".

    It doesn't matter, it's the desperate spin cycle.

    So there goes the grand conspiracy and Trump involvement and direction. And seems they talked of doing so but never did, no one was found with any of these alleged arms or weapons nor any of the handful of people here actually charged with an act of sedition. But if they actually plotted amongst themselves to use violence in an armed seditious manner off with their heads.

    Yes it can

    "If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both."

    Straw man argument. Who ever said Trump was directing the Oath Keepers or any of the other insurrectionists that day, beyond his fiery speech and ongoing lies to fire them up and turn them into a violent force that would help him accomplish what he wanted?

    So explain how "any protestor against the government" can be "two or more persons"??

    Some sort of metaphysical Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde situation??

    No. Protesting does not involve breaking into a government building in order to stop the functioning of government.

    There's that too....But I could stop that line of reasoning with the singular "protestor" with a conspiracy charge...

    Why are you so desperate to distract from the facts at hand?

    Ray Epps is now consigned to the dustbin of history.... unfortunately, that's the only place conservatives get their "knowledge"

    Ray Epps is the D.B. Cooper of January 6th conspiracy theories... he'll never die...

    Ya that's a sin right? Facts I mean! The DNC don't want the proverbial "Fly in the ointment" truth to cloud the untruths the party clings to ;)

    Understood you would know nothing about Ray Epps. CNN only covers Trump. He is the provocateur that instigated multiple times breaching the capital. He was on the FBI's most wanted list... and then not... He has never been charged.

    But here, meet your fed agitator.

    The facts at hand is a person who was not even there has been charged, and potentially rightfully so, and a person who was there, recorded MULTIPLE TIMES rallying the troops to breach the capital and even instigated people to tear down the barriers is never charged... Weird, right?

    This thread isn't about him. It's about the Oath Keepers and their charges. If you want to talk about Ray Epps, start a thread about Ray Epps.
