Progressive have expressed their hatred of police for years .... Missouri Democratic Rep. Cori Bush praised the Black Lives Matter activist who advocated "death" for police officers in 2014 and tweeted the BLM chant "pigs in a blanket fry 'em like bacon."
Self-awareness. Apparently it’s not for everyone. Are you really this dumb or are you just parodying yourself?
I am just as supportive of locking up those on the left who actively promote and cause violence. However this thread is about a Seditious Conspiracy of MAGA supporters including some GOP politicians who attempted to use violence to undermine democracy and install Donald Trump as a non-elected dictator. Your whataboutisms are pretty meaningless in the overall scenario of preserving democracy in the U.S.
Rep. Adam Schiff said 'facts support' indicting Trump and that the January 6 panel will make its evidence public so the GOP can't 'cherry-pick' and 'mislead the country' https://www.businessinsider.com/adam-schiff-facts-support-indicting-trump-over-january-6-2022-12

Ex-House members demand probe into sitting lawmakers linked to Jan. 6 https://www.axios.com/2022/12/17/jan-6-lawmakers-probe-house-members A bipartisan group of former members of the House of Representatives released an open letter Saturday demanding an ethics investigation into lawmakers linked to the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. Driving the news: The 36 former lawmakers urged current House members to request the Office of Congressional Ethics "thoroughly investigate those members who played a role in the events leading up to and on January 6th, and if appropriate, that the House exercise its disciplinary functions." What they're saying: "Surely, taking part in an effort to overturn an election warrants an institutional response," the letter states. "These lawmakers stopped short of storming the Capitol themselves. But they shared a common goal with those who did: to prevent the lawful transfer of power for the first time in the Republic’s history. As with those who stormed the Capitol, they must be held accountable." The former lawmakers do not name any specific House members in the letter but cite various allegations made in the media and by the House select committee investigating Jan. 6. "We now know, for example, that sitting lawmakers corresponded and met with White House officials and allies to plot various prongs of the campaign, including to advocate that the president declare martial law; that states submit false certificates of electoral votes to Congress; that the vice president, in contravention of his constitutional duties, interfere with the counting of electoral votes; and that federal law enforcement authorities be enlisted to interfere with the election; among other startling facts." The bottom line: "Our ability to ensure that such efforts are not repeated rests upon accountability for unlawful and unethical behavior," the letter reads. "No one — including members of Congress — is above the law." Meanwhile, the final hearing of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot is scheduled to take place on December 19, with the final report expected to be released later in the week
It's long overdue to criminally charge them. Enablers, line-straddlers and quiet resisters: How GOP lawmakers contributed to Jan. 6 Jan. 6 panel members released mountains of evidence that painted a detailed picture of their GOP colleagues — just as they're taking the House majority. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/...w-gop-lawmakers-contributed-to-jan-6-00076581
