I really cannot get over how blatantly and frequently @seanmdav @bdomenech and the @FDRLST can be caught in simple, silly lies on this website and they continue without any shame. It's almost ... Orwellian. billmoyers.com/story/orwell-h…
One of the ways you can tell @seanmdav is a shameless propagandist is the fact he doesn't even bother to respond, retort, or pretend he has any self respect when he is caught in a lie.
And it's important to remember these lies - the exact type of disinformation that fueled this week's terror - help pay for @meghanmccain's lifestyle.
By the way, one of the several journalists I saw attacked on Wednesday worked for ABC.

Let's talk about the proper terms to describe what happened at the Capitol for a moment. I know this has been contentious and I have put a lot of thought into it ...
It was unquestionably a riot. We know this. There's no question about it. But it was also something much more since there was planning, official participation, and the goal of overturning our democracy.
Some people are adamant about calling this a coup. I get that but I think they are wrong. If you read the definition of coup, it signifies success. In the original French, it quite literally means a blow that was struck. This was a coup attempt it was not a coup.

I am scouring through my photos and videos of the violence at the Capitol on Wednesday. Here are some examples of the weaponry, coordination, and extremism that was on display.

Here's some QANON paraphenalia outside one of the doors where people were breaking in ... Image

NEW: The Democrats' impeachment push began as they huddled in a secure location during Wednesday's riots. @IlhanMN was updating her articles of impeachment resolution and drumming up support from leadership as the crowds raged through the Capitol. news.yahoo.com/democrats-impe…
Due to the past threats on her life, @IlhanMN was evacuated to the same room as congressional leadership. Inside, she worked on her impeachment resolution and drummed up support from @LeaderHoyer who said, "Go for it." news.yahoo.com/democrats-impe…
The Dem caucus call debating impeachment today lasted for hours.

They were waiting for marching orders from Joe Biden. One staffer told me, "If Pelosi comes back and says Biden said, ‘Impeach the motherf****r,’ that’s what we’re going to do."

More and more evidence is emerging that elements of this attack on the Capitol were planned. Here is some of what I saw ...
I saw multiple rioters in tactical gear communicating on walkie talkies. Many wore helmets and gas maks, clearly prepped for violence.
Many of the rioters also brought blunt weapons. This guy has an axe handle in hand.

I did a TikTok with Elizabeth from Knoxville and her onion. vm.tiktok.com/ZMJ7MMCmm/
I am pretty sure Elizabeth was really maced. Her face was moister and redder than what comes across in the clip. Hard to imagine her pulling that off with an onion. This is a case of a strange, questionable tear gas remedy.
As someone who's been tear gassed a lot - including on Wednesday - I strongly advise not rubbing onions all over yourself.
