"It's been three weeks since the Capitol was attacked, and we already have cries to move on and make nice. We have the FBI, DOJ and others reluctant to press charges for a terrorist attack on our Capitol by people who wanted to kill our representatives." patreon.com/posts/investig…
"They did a siege on the Capitol, targeted reps for assassination, stole and destroyed federal property, threatened to kill the VP, confessed all this on the internet and recorded the crimes...and you're debating whether to charge them?!" -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/investig…
"The attackers are like the Trump admin in miniature. They think that since they committed crimes openly and with the backing of seditious senators, that their actions no longer count as crimes. Violently raiding the Capitol is a crime!" -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/investig…
"The fact that the coup failed is not an excuse to let people off the hook, because had it succeeded we would not be having this discussion -- we would be living in an entrenched autocracy led by violent insurrectionists!" -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/investig…
"We have a culture which coddles these criminals. They need to be charged. I'm less concerned about incarceration for non-violent actors but it needs to go on their record. Obviously there need to be consequences for raiding the Capitol!." -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/investig…
"They are treating grown criminals like children and the main reason is white supremacy. If a BLM activist stormed the Capitol, would she be at home chilling and deleting evidence like Riley Williams? No. Would a Muslim rioter get a pass? Never." patreon.com/posts/investig…
"Can you imagine if a foreign terrorist group stormed the Capitol, killed a police officer, threatened to hang the VP, and plotted to murder Congress? Would we be having a debate over whether they should be charged?!" -- @gaslitnation patreon.com/posts/investig…
