    I guess it's time to start a thread for this. We know that at least 140 members of Congress have pledged to join the objection. Under federal law, if at least one member of each house (HOR and Senate) objects, each house will adjourn the joint session for their own session (limited at two hours) to take up the objection. If both houses pass a resolution objecting to the EC result, further action can take place. If both houses do not (i.e. if one or neither passes a resolution), the objection is powerless and the college result is certified.

    Clearly this is political theater as we know such a resolution will not pass the House, and there's good reason to think it wouldn't pass the Senate either (with or without the two senators from Georgia). The January 6 joint session is traditionally a ceremonial one. This one will not be.

    Many traditional pillars of Republican support have condemned the plan as futile and damaging. Certainly the Trump loyalists don't care - and many are likely doing it for fundraising purposes or to carry weight with the fraction of their constituencies that think this is a good idea.


     
    Criminals are idiots.


    Robertson, in a statement to Newsweek, admitted that he and Fracker sent the photo to their colleagues and that he posted on his own Facebook after it leaked to social media, Vincent Veloz, a special agent with the U.S. Capitol Police Office, wrote in a statement with the arrest warrant.

    “CNN and the Left are just mad because we actually attacked the government who is the problem and not some random small business … The right IN ONE DAY took the f****** U.S. Capitol. Keep poking us,” Robertson is quoted as saying on Facebook.

    Veloz also pointed to Robertson’s statement in an Instagram post that he was “proud” of the photo because he was “willing to put skin in the game.”

    Fracker also posted on Facebook: “Lol to anyone who’s possibly concerned about the picture of me going around … Sorry I hate freedom? … Not like I did anything illegal.”
     
    "Not like I did anything illegal."

    Said the pig, just before being arrested.

    Karma's going to need a two-month vacation after this shirtshow.


    These cases are being prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia and the Counterterrorism Section of the DOJ’s National Security Division, with assistance from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Virginia. The cases are being investigated by the FBI’s Washington Field Office and the United States Capitol Police.

    They are going to regret it for a loong time....

    This has to be especially galling for minority citizens.

    Trash some property in the Capitol building while on camera > Arrested within days and likely tossed under the jail

    Kill a black man in broad daylight while on camera > Never arrested, nor charged. At most, a perfunctory investigation that goes nowhere.
     
    Well deserved, he also should get a promotion and a fat raise...
     
    So how many of the people arrested so far have been exposed as Antifa instigators?

    We probably have not heard yet because they are still crunching the numbers.

    Or just maybe they are confused because all those radical left people should have been happy because you know the liberal won.

    You know don't want to say anything until they figure out the long game.
     
    according to a friend on Facebook, they were all actors..lol
    The Antifa/False Flag narrative must be really confusing for all the MAGA people that were, like, actually there. Not to mention all the MAGA people who weren't there but thought storming the Capitol was something to be proud of - "Patriots" being part of the "Revolution."

    "So, uhhh, we're NOT supposed to be proud of this? We're supposed to blame this on BLM/Antifa/Radical Left? Whaaa???"
