    Current GOP doesn't want elections, they want a dictator.

    Suit and tie guy busted by FBI.


    Capitol rioter who wore a suit and tie while spraying cops with chemicals arrested by FBI

    excerotL

    "A 26-year-old Brooklyn man distinctive for wearing a coat and tie to the January 6 Capitol riot has been arrested on charges alleging he sprayed police officers with chemical irritants.

    Edward Francisco Rodriguez was busted with the help of videos that had been posted on a Redditt.com subpage "r/CapitolConsequences." In the videos, Rodriguez was nicknamed "#SuitMacer" by social media users. The video was titled, "#SuitMacer unmasked. He sprayed some kind of pepper spray on many police officers.""

    Trump renews attack on Michigan Senate ahead of sanction hearing

    excerpt:

    "In a statement, Trump criticized the media and singled out the Republican-controlled Michigan Senate. The Senate Oversight Committee released a report last month, saying lawmakers had found no evidence of fraud in the 2020 election after investigating the vote for more than seven months.

    Trump lost Michigan to Democrat Joe Biden by 154,000 votes or 3 percentage points. The GOP senators' review, a series of court rulings, bipartisan boards of canvassers and dozens of audits have reinforced the outcome.

    "The only reason Detroit, Michigan, is not yet under investigation is because the Republicans in the state Senate are a bunch of weak RINOs that are afraid to act," Trump said in the statement."

    The state senate majority leader in MI is Shirkey. He flew to DC to meet with Trump after Trump summoned him in an apparent attempt to stop MI from certifying its 2020 election result.

    Trump's allegations about voter fraud in MI have had no traction, even with GOP legislators in MI.

    Trump has gradually recovered after his Capitol riot to his usual favorable rating of 42%.

    Yeah, just because someone is stupid doesn't automatically make them a Trump supporter (but it helps).

    Capitol rioter who demanded Pelosi be turned over to be lynched cites Bible in court defense

    excerpt:

    "According to a report from the Daily Beast's Kelly Weill, one of the Capitol rioters taken into custody by the FBI has chosen to represent herself on charges of multiple counts of violent entry, disruptive conduct, and obstruction of Congress -- and is citing the Bible as part of her defense.

    Prosecutors maintain that Pauline Bauer, owner of a Pennsylvania pizza parlor, took part in the Jan 6th insurrection and reportedly told Capitol police "bring Nancy Pelosi out here now… we want to hang that f*cking b*tch."

    Weill reports that Bauer is using a sovereign citizen defense -- saying she doesn't recognize the laws of the U.S. government -- and that she is operating under "divine guidance.""

    Capitol rioter who demanded Pelosi be turned over to be lynched cites Bible in court defense

    excerpt:

    "According to the report, "Prosecutors allege that Bauer tried organizing buses to transport people to D.C. for a rally that preceded the riot, and that while in the Capitol rotunda she told police that she wanted to kill House Speaker Nancy Pelosi," with Weill adding, "But in what experts describe as an inadvisable legal strategy, Bauer has demanded to represent herself in court, appeared to threaten a court clerk with prison time, and declared herself a 'self-governed individual' with special legal privileges."

    In a Zoom appearance before the court, Bauer told the judge, "I am here by special divine appearance, a living soul," before adding, "I do not stand under the law. Under Genesis 1, God gave man dominion over the law."

    The report goes on to add that, since that time, Bauer last week "... listed a series of strange alternative spellings of her name in a document that she (incorrectly) claimed freed her from some government control.""

    Texas citizens waited up to 17 hours and until after midnight to testify against the proposed voter restriction bill.


    Texans reportedly waited 17 hours and until the middle of the night to testify on GOP voting restrictions bill – Usa News Post

    excerpt:

    "Many of the 295 people who signed up to testify before the House had arrived by 8 a.m. on Saturday, according to the Tribune, and most of them came to speak in opposition to Senate Bill 1 and House Bill 3, the Republican attempts to enact tougher voting restrictions.

    The bills aim to enact restrictions on voting local voting initiatives, including drive-thru voting, 24-hour voting, and voting by mail. The bills would prohibit local elections officials from proactively sending out mail-in ballot applications and allow for more partisan poll watchers, according to the Tribune.

    Republicans in state legislatures across the US have taken up measures to enact harsh voting restrictions after many states expanded voting initiatives in last year’s election due to the pandemic. Former President Donald Trump and his allies have long blamed his loss to non-existent fraud in the election, of which there is no evidence.

    New restrictive voting laws have been enacted in at least 17 states so far this year, according to data collected by the nonprofit Brennan Center for Justice. Opponents of these GOP-backed measures argue that such attempts to limit voting are often steeped in racism."

    Trump on Jan. 6 insurrection: 'These were great people'

    excerpt:

    "Former President Donald Trump on Sunday widely praised those who attended the Jan. 6 rally that preceded the insurrection at the Capitol, repeatedly using the word “love” to describe the tone of the event.

    Echoing his rhetoric about the 2017 white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va., Trump said, “These were peaceful people, these were great people.”

    Speaking on “Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo” on the Fox News Channel, he also said the rally participants were patriots, that some of them were unjustly arrested and jailed, and that a woman who was shot and killed by law enforcement during the insurrection was a great hero.

    The remarks reflected recent efforts by Trump and his supporters to cast themselves as the aggrieved parties from the Jan. 6 riot, which left five people dead and others injured — and, for a brief time, halted the wheels of democracy as President-elect Joe Biden’s victory over Trump in the Electoral College was being confirmed by Congress."

    Trump says his class-action lawsuits are a victory for free speech

    excerpt:

    "Former President Donald Trump on Sunday expressed optimism that his legal action against social media companies will be a victory for the Constitution.

    “They are immune so many different things, but they're not immune from the lawsuit,” he said of Silicon Valley during a conspiracy-laden interview on “Sunday Morning Futures With Maria Bartiromo” on the Fox News Channel.

    “What they have done is such a violation of the Constitution,” he said, “a violation like we've never seen before. They take me down, they take all conservative voices down or most of them. They find them and they take them down. It's a disgrace.”

    The former president filed a series of class-action lawsuits Wednesday accusing leading social media companies of illegally censoring him."
