    The Washington Post and CNN have given support to Trump that Trump did not cause the insurrection because those involved planned the attacks weeks ago.

    "According to a report in the Washington Post, the FBI had warned that extremists were preparing to come to Washington, attack Congress and engage in “war.”
    The report said the warning was issued internally by the FBI’s field office in Norfolk, Va., a day before the violent riot at the U.S. Capitol.
    The warning directly contradicted statements from the Justice Department and FBI officials that they had no intelligence to suggest a storming of the Capitol." -https://www.latimes.com/politics/story/2021-01-12/report-says-fbi-warned-of-plans-for-the-assault

    https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/13/politics/capitol-riot-investigation/index.html

    The idea that Trump bears responsibility for the attack is stupid and hypocritical. Hillary or Obama never admitted responsibility for the Benghazi attack. But, they put the dead people there to be killed in an attack. These thugs took it upon themselves to write the wrongs of Democrats in Congress as well as the elections.

    The attack began before the President's speech.

    Trumps speech ended at 1:11 PM per video.

    Attack began at 12:55 PM 15 minutes after the crowd arrived mixed with Trump supporters and Antifa.

    Trump said be peacefull to his crowd.

    Trump is innocent of all crimes. The Democrats are impeaching him out of hate, revenge etc.

    Those insurrectionists are going to jail, and if there is truly justice, so will Trump. :)

    So now CNN and WaPo aren't fake news?

    I guess it's only fake news if it goes against your bias.

    Lolwut?:roflol:

    That story in the OP lends even MORE Credibility to Trump Inciting this Deadly Act of Domestic Terrorism.

    These "planners" only planned it for that day (Jan. 6th) based on Trump's Egging-On with statements like THIS on Twitter:

    Trump tweeted "Big protest in D.C. on January 6th. Be there, will be wild!" and thousands of insurrectionists heeded the call

    https://m.orlandoweekly.com/orlando...tionists-heeded-the-call/Content?oid=28622391

    Thanks again, for posting an article that lends even MORE PROOF that Trump Incited the Deadly Riot.

    Good looking out.
    Thanks, again.:salute:

    Did you even read the OP?

    It was mentioned in the 1st Sentence.

    How could you miss it?

    Unless, of course, you commented without reading the OP?

    There's no evidence that Trump organized that specific group to come and attack the Capitol Building. Do you have any evidence of this? No. There isn't any evidence of this.

    There was no insurrection, nor any attempt.

    Nor did Trump encourage it.

    The reality is, the vast majority of violence lately has been coming from the left.

    So this proves that Trump's Tweets had absolutely no impact. Once again, impeached for a false narrative! Total rush to judgement by the left.

    Why do you think so? There was a crowd at the Capitol, but outside. The President's speech ended at 1:11 PM. At 2:24 PM the President tweeted that Pence had failed them. At 2:53 PM they were inside of the Capitol building. At 2:38 PM, the President tweeted again to stay peaceful...too little, too late.

    Based on his earlier speech, it suggests that his tweet at 2:24 PM announcing that Pence failed them was the signal for the break-in. The failure was that most of the Capitol Police did their job, with the help of the D.C. Police. They fought back and tried to secure the building and eventually did.
    My guess is that DoJ is waiting for him to leave office before indicting him.

    Lol...the attack began when trump lost the election and embarked on a seditious quest to overturn it.
    With great power comes great responsibility, and when your cult is largely composed of anti-vaxxers, climate change deniers, Qanon fanatics and people still fighting the Civil war in their heads, you need to pay special attention to your words.
    There is no doubt that trump spent every day since losing the election trying to subvert the results and telling his cult to fight for him.

    You have an official link to the FBI investigation for this or is it just more lies?

    It was televised on multiple stations. Easy enough to put together...along with the time-line, because the media was covering BOTH events...the speech and rally and the joint session. And, the FBI announced they were looking at possible charges of sedition.

    Televised by the media? The media that trusted in the Russian hoax? The media that has attacked Trump for 4+ years?

    That media?

    Also, note that the prohibition on indictments of sitting Presidents is a DoJ policy, not a law or Constitutional provision. And, it's based on keeping a sitting President from being deflected from his business as the Chief Executive. There is nothing in the Constitution or law or DoJ policy that would prevent him from being indicted for crimes while he was in the Presidency.

    If his next reply to you doesn't directly or indirectly involve black people, it'll shock the hell out of me and I'll owe you lunch.

    I think Fox covered both as well. You aren't really trying to argue that the time line of the rally, the speech, and the attacks on the Capitol building and the timing of his tweets can't be identified, are you?

    His involvement wasn't just the Save the Vote rally.
    It was his constant lying about a stolen election. Where is AG says there was not enough fraud to overturn it. His Cyber Security Chief in charge of the election said it was the most secure election in USA history.
    Where the USSC said he's law suit has no legal bearing. Where his hand picked judges says there's now valid evidence to hear a case.

    The lie about a frauded election. The lack of not conceding. The call to fight to overturn the election.
    All played into any planning about taking back a false election claim.

    Plain and simple. tRUMP is the instigator of the violence of the Right Wing.
