I had hoped yesterday when CBS and ABC quickly pointed out the lie that we were finally reaching a critical mass where the press had to choose between salvaging what's left of their reputations or continue chasing the Blue Anon bullshit deeper down the rabbit hole. Guess I was too optimistic. Again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not wrong, at all, of course. This particular tidbit within the larger story is so easy to disprove that it's mind-bottling (tm) to me that this morning's headlines ran with it anyway. Each time something like this happens, more and more people see through the media games. I figure we have to be reaching a tipping point where the overwhelming majority of people, rather than just the majority, figure out the media is an enemy of truth and this country. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartacus Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Trump guilty of planning safe protest https://www.zerohedge.com/political/myth-busted-trump-ordered-officials-make-sure-j6-was-safe-event And last but not least - J6 Committee uniparty operatives will never highlight evidence that President Trump ordered the event to be 'safe,' and did not want to incite violence as his political opponents contend. As Just the News reports: But the hearings have been undercut by a fundamental fact: Trump's actions before the riot began included urging supporters to "peacefully and patriotically" express their opinions and ordering his top aides to ensure there was a large contingent of National Guard troops at the ready to ensure no trouble ensued. A Capitol Police timeline obtained by Just the News shows the Trump Pentagon first offered National Guard troops to the Capitol Police on Jan. 2, 2021, four full days before the event. The police turned down the offer but then began to have second thoughts. The Capitol Police then asked their political minders — the House sergeant at arms chief among them — for permission to accept the troops on Jan. 4 but were turned down on the ground that such a show of force would create bad "optics," the records show. But the smoking gun is a memo from the Inspector General which reveals that President Trump wanted to avoid - not incite - violence. The memo details a Jan. 3, 2021 meeting in the White House between Trump, former SecDef Christopher Miller, and Gen. Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. "Mr. Miller and GEN Milley met with the President at the White House at 5:30 p.m.," reads the IG report. "The primary topic they discussed was unrelated to the scheduled rally. GEN Milley told us that at the end of the meeting, the President told Mr. Miller that there would be a large number of protestors on January 6, 2021, and Mr. Miller should ensure sufficient National Guard or Soldiers would be there to make sure it was a safe event. Gen Milley told us that Mr. Miller responded, 'We've got a plan and we've got it covered.'" The fact of the matter is that Trump told his senior advisers that he knew the event would attract at "large number of protesters," and he ordered it to be kept "safe" using National Guard troops. Instead, the evidence actually points to a large amount of pushback from underlings who were concerned about the optics of using the National Guard - which might create the perception of a military coup or martial law during the electoral process. So the President wanted the National Guard to keep the peace, while the FBI and US intelligence was warning of impending violence - and the January 6th Committee has no interest in getting to the bottom of it. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He refused. He didn’t call the military to send help. He didn’t call [then-Vice President Mike Pence] to check on the safety of his loyal VP. Instead he fed the mob’s anger and let the riot play out,” the editorial board wrote. “Character is revealed in a crisis, and Mr. Pence passed his Jan. 6 trial. Mr. Trump utterly failed his,” the editorial board added. The Journal’s editorial came one day after the House select committee investigating the Capitol riot held its final summer hearing, which focused on the 187 minutes between Trump finishing his remarks at his “Stop the Steal” rally on Jan. 6 and a tweet he sent in the late afternoon telling his supporters to go home.
