The Silent Coup is now complete.

[Willow]

I see exactly the same thing. Two of my posts on this thread were removed this morning, although everything I posted were facts and not the conspiracy theory nonsense that's posted by some on this board. I've not received an email or any other communication from the moderator on the reasons the posts were taken down. I suspected it may be because I used the term traitorous describe the mob and those who post lies and conspiracy theories advanced by a president that is now fully disgraced.

It seems to me that the supporters of our current president are free to post whatever nonsense they desire on the board. However, non-supporters who have different opinions have to be careful about their posts, lest they be removed by moderator(s) who appear to be biased to the president's supporters.

Your posts were removed due to personal attack.  I don't bother to communicate with every breaker of the rules regarding why his post was removed.  If one is not smart enough to figure that out perhaps that one should not be posting at all.

Whenever one feels it necessary to include "you people" or "you are" he should look closely at his text as those two usually lead to personal attack.  Honestly describing a person holding the flag of the South as a traitor also qualifies as we are all aware that we have many members who belong to that group.  I left it not because it's correct but only out of my generosity during this time when I am removing dozens of ignorant posts.

Incidentally when I remove a post I also remove any posts quoting the offending item.

I do not allow personal attack by either conservatives or liberals.  I am more than tired of people whining that their posts were removed because I disagree with their political stance.

plenty of pics and vids of capital police allowing free access.  vids of DC police helping antifa buses into parking area.

plenty of pics and vids of capital police allowing free access.  vids of DC police helping antifa buses into parking area.

I saw a video of a police officer opening a barricade and waving protesters into the restricted area... and a few others that weren't so obvious, but definitely NOT attempting to STOP the invasion. 

I'm beginning to think it was planned, with the Dems fully expecting the Trump supporters to set fires, destroy property, loot, and cause other massive damages.  I'm glad only a couple windows were broken... and very saddened that a police officer shot an unarmed civilian. 

All the video I've seen thus far shows a tiny fraction of the violence seen in BLM riots over the past year... of course the "Media" said BLM and Antifa was "mostly peaceful" while Jan 6th was an "embarrassment" and "very violent". 

What's an embarrassment is the blatant hypocrisy of the media, big tech, and 90% of elected officials.

the murder of Ashli Babbit a 14 yr veteran.

I don't think it was barely mentioned on the democrat controlled radio news stations in my area, yet it is all over the news about the death of the capital police officer because of Trump protestors. which is a lie

so if u want anti-Trump news all day go to Drudge, that is all that is posted now.

House Appropriations Committee Chairwoman Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn., and Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio, who oversees the subcommittee that funds the legislative branch, said that they will honor Sicknick's memory by holding those who instigated the mob "fully accountable."

Well that would be Antifa animals aka MAOs modern day Red Guards that were bused in So this will be pushed under the rug.

universal income (harris has mentioned this a few times) is on the way. does that mean higher taxes or higher inflation or combo of both to pay for the serfs.

Translation of the UN's "2030 Agenda blueprint for globalist government" (controlled by corporate interests)
Goal 1) End poverty in all its forms everywhere

Translation: Put everyone on government welfare, food stamps, housing subsidies and handouts that make them obedient slaves to global government. Never allow people upward mobility to help themselves. Instead, teach mass victimization and obedience to a government that provides monthly "allowance" money for basic essentials like food and medicine. Label it "ending poverty."

I'm sure I'm not alone is saying I'm so tired of all this BS.  A long time ago I was considered a moderate, I have not changed my views much but now I guess I'm considered a deplorable redneck conservative radical.  I can fully understand the frustration of those who gathered in DC to rally and protest, I cannot understand those who charged into the capitol building. 

There seem to be few reasonable voices out there today, few leaders who aren't out to score points or knock down the other side.  I have difficulty understanding why our leaders have chosen this path, the only conclusion I can come to is that the lust for power,  prominence and wealth have over come love for our country and it's citizens, they all should be ashamed of themselves.

I was not a supporter of President Trump to begin with, I was not a fan of his constant tweets and digs but from what I can recall the leaders against him were just as bad and for some reason that was ok because they were against Trump, I just don't understand that, it defies all reasonable thought.

I served this great country during a time of turmoil and was spat on when I returned home, back then much like today, mob mentality seemed to rule and there we're lines drawn.

9/11 seemed for a time to bring us together but our leaders used the occasion to whittle away at our freedom and created more government agencies  and laws to give them more control over it's citizens.

As others have said, I will not live long enough to see the culmination of the changes our country has gone through.  I do know that no amount of spending or new laws will improve our situation.  As some one said recently our prosperity has destroyed us.  The individual is no longer held responsible for their actions, all that matters is what group you are classified in. 

May God have mercy on us all and forgive us and embolden our grandchildren and their children to do better.

The Trump supporters have indeed accomplished something: they have managed to do exactly OPPOSITE what they state in their rhetoric of "Make America Great Again".  

I thought, according to the statements of conservatives for the past 30+ years that America was ALREADY great, the best country in the world.  Somehow, the irony of telling us out of one side of their mouths that America is great, and the other side that it needed to be "made great again", didn't occur to them

Regardless, in one fell swoop they've done exactly opposite their goals: America's moral standing of Reagan's "Shining Beacon on a hill" is now CRUSHED worldwide.  For 80 years America was able to take a stand against oppression and anti-democratic leanings in other countries, such as China, Russia and even Senegal.

Now?

The collapse of American moral superiority is complete, thanks to pro-Trump rabble rousers.
  Already nations - Iran, Russia AND China - are both MOCKING America's so-called democratically-granted superiority AND telling the world "When they straighten up their own house, then they can say something!".  Thanks to Trump and his Trumper support base.

Russia is now a legitimate option for countries to go to for economic and social aid, instead of the American-led World Bank, thanks to Trumpers.  Already happened in Africa.

Countries have signed trade deals with one another that *completely* leave out American interests
  Thanks to Trumpers.

Europe has flatly stated that they can no longer expect America to be a solid ally - that America can no longer be looked to for guidance on many, many factors.  Playing RIGHT into Putin's hands.  Thanks to Trumpers.

Struggling societies, trying to implement democracy or control demagogry, can no longer expect America to be that shining example of what is possible - the people of Senegal have already posted interviews of the collapse of their hopes for their own upcoming democratic elections, since their moral example, the Americans, are at the precipice themselves.  Thanks to Trumpers.

China, now emboldened by America's inner strife and weakened moral stance,  has just cracked down on dissent in Hong Kong, arresting pro-democracy supporters by the truckloads.  Because anything America will say against them will be brushed off as hypocrisy.  Thanks to Trumpers.

Even Iran took a swipe at us yesterday.

Congrats, Trumpers!  A well done example of allowing the enemy to get exactly what they want, through just plain old subterfuge and distraction.

TDS is real, it's alive and well, you disrespect Trump supporters and feel superior in your 'victory'?

5 states stopped counting simultaneously, voting machines were connected live to other countries, votes were switched and and/or removed on live TV, fake ballots trucked in.. the list of fraud is endless and you come here to rub our noses in it?

You have no idea what's happened to our country, it's now an ungovernable Banana Republic thanks to those here foolish enough to support the coup against our Republic, along with the deep state and hostile foreign actors.

You've won nothing, and tens of millions of disenfranchised voters here aren't going away.

[dinosnake]

TDS is real, it's alive and well, you disrespect Trump supporters and feel superior in your 'victory'?

No.  It's far, far too late for that.  There is NO VICTORY.  Everyone LOST thanks to Trumper's actions at the Capitol.  The United States is now HUMILIATED in the face of the world, no longer can we claim *any* superiority in terms of a 'people's republic' when just a *section* of that people decide to try to, forcibly, overturn the voting choice of others.

5 states stopped counting simultaneously, voting machines were connected live to other countries, votes were switched and and/or removed on live TV, fake ballots trucked in.. the list of fraud is endless and you come here to rub our noses in it?

THEN PROVE IT.  You've had *SIXTY* court appearances to prove the conspiracy theories of "changed votes", "switched votes", "corrupted voting machines", "trucked-in ballots"...

the list of your FANTASIES goes on and on and yet you haven't PROVEN a THING.

PROOF

PROOF

PROOF!!!

Every vote counted by the voting machines was recounted and CONFIRMED BY THE PAPER ORIGINALS.  Even your legal fool, Guiliani, *admitted* in a court of law, in front of a judge and under oath, that there was NO FRAUD - that the lawsuit was NOT claiming fraud.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wuwl2p9TIDE

And there he is.  Recorded live.  In legal transcripts, too.  

You have no idea what's happened to our country, it's now an ungovernable Banana Republic thanks to those here foolish enough to support the coup against our Republic, along with the deep state and hostile foreign actors.

You've won nothing, and tens of millions of disenfranchised voters here aren't going away.

And HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of voter you are TRYING to disenfranchise will NEVER, EVER go away.

You had your votes.  What a fantasy, that you're "disenfranchised"!!!  Did they NOT count your votes??  Can you prove that??  Can you prove that they didn't count your votes considering that Biden won many districts by slim margins??!!  Oh, they disenfranchised SO many...white...votes, that they won by hundreds of thousands of votes in one district alone!

Oh, wait...  

-------------------------------------------------------------------

This entire things is a group of children who think that they deserved to win, no matter what.  I win, everyone else will need to lose.  It's grade school all over again!  Throw a temper tantrum when you don't get what you want!  Elections??  Can't be "fair" if I DIDN'T WIN, could it??

And there is something I've never told you guys about until now.  The Trumpers yell "election fraud!" but my county actually HAD election fraud, one of the largest cases of actual, real, prosecuted and convicted election frauds in the last 40 years.  Involving potentially millions of dollars, almost a decade of battles, lawsuits including one the town lost (yet the truth came out later), and finally, when (he) couldn't get what (he) wanted, went into outright election fraud.

In less than 2 months the FBI were on him like a cheap suit.  Raids.  Arrests.  Convictions.

Serving time.

The Trumpers are yelling "fraud!" but REAL election fraud can be PROVEN.  Pretty easily, as paperwork actually backs up every vote every American casts at the ballots.  All we've had to put up with is allegations and false, no, make that LIES, because a claim that is never, ever proven, can be proven, won't be proven because they present no real evidence yet expect everyone to honor their claims...is a LIE.  Don't mince words.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

There is nothing to gloat about.  This entire "election fraud" debacle is a DISASTER but fingers need to be pointed and it's Trump and his supporters that are directly, without question, responsible.  It's going to take *years* to fix American prestige around the world now, all because a bunch of self-righteous entitled brats think they have the unencumbered right to the seats of power without question, even when the balance of the country directly says otherwise.

You need a job on CNN or MSNBC. 

Have you sent them your resume?

You could probably at least get an interview with Don Lemon with that fine spin you weave.

None of us ever watch CNN or MSNBC, but I'm sure your segment would be awesome. 

[Skinhead]

@Dinosnake

I think you are totally wrong.  Trumpers are responsibe for contesting a stolen election.  I feel the Democrats and Clinton supporters are the one responsible for other countries losing respect for our country.  They fought him, mocked him, falsely accused him, and lied about him from day one.

[98valk]

The fraud that cost Trump the election largely took place in the processing, verifying, and counting the half of all votes that were mailed in or cast by absentee voters.

In Georgia, Ballotpedia reports that “more than six times as many people cast an absentee vote by mail in the 2020 presidential election than in 2016. According to the secretary of state’s office, President-elect Joe Biden had almost double the absentee-by-mail votes as President Donald Trump – almost 850,000 for Biden compared with about 450,000 for Trump,”

To measure the overall extent of this fraud, consider that in 2016 in Georgia, 6.8% of paper ballots were tossed out for fraud and other errors. But in 2020, only 00.34% — twenty times fewer ballots were rejected.

In Nevada the rejection rate dropped from 1.6% in 2016 to 0.58% in 2020.

In Pennsylvania, the 2016 rejection rate of 1.0% fell from to 0.28%.

The Senate runoffs in Georgia show how the Democrats are permanently changing our elections to permit fraud to win them. By using the pretext of the virus to acclimate the nation to no-excuse, no-reason absentee voting, the Democrats have eliminated the secret ballot. Now, votes are often cast with the party workers looking over the voters’ shoulders.
