I ain't comforted, 21.
I’m well aware of the technological prowess of Germany, both in the early 1900’s and today, just as I am aware of the technological prowess of the United States. But Germany was not an industrial powerhouse because of Ignaz the Brandenburger barley farmer, just as Lin Wood and friends didn’t build FAANG. Nevertheless, such people can seize political power and steer these powerhouses towards lunatic ends.
I ain't comforted, 21.
Without packing a coat
wasnt my intention to comfort you
I did feel some warmth at first and then a cold December came in and scared me, 21.

I hold very little against individuals here. And the rare times that I have I always travel back, apologize and make amends.
I don't understand the Ignoring of fellow members. I've never done that. And I am disheartened to see you with a few in your column.
All the we've been thru together the last, what 20 years on and off the hard court and you hold such a grudge against me. You ain't perfect, but do I indict you? No.
Senate Republicans Block Jan. 6 Riot Commission
Ya block an investigation into a mob attack on the Capital with 6 killed.
FFS
6 killed
5 died of natural causes. One was killed by the police.
Good little cultie.
but Benghazi
These people are ing utter re s bro. They don't read past the headlines of their rag tag lib outlets.
5 people on the Capital hill that day just all happened to die within the same timeframe.
Of natural causes.
Time to spread some brownie dough on shorts obtained at Goodwill. Market it to cultists like you and Koriwat as "authentic Dons shorts" and sell $99 a pop.
FFS 74 million would be sold immediately.
WASHINGTON – The District of Columbia medical examiner on Wednesday released the cause of death for four of the five people who died at the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, but results are still pending for Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick.
Dr. Francisco Diaz, the district's chief medical examiner, announced the causes of deaths as:
• Ashli Babbitt, 35, died by homicide from a gunshot to the left shoulder. She was shot by a Capitol police officer while trying to climb through a door near the House chamber.
• Kevin Greeson, 55, died of natural causes from cardiovascular disease. Greeson, of Athens, Alabama, had a Twitter account in which he supported former President Donald Trump and profanely denounced his opponents.
• Benjamin Phillips, 50, died of natural causes from cardiovascular disease. According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, Phillips of Ringtown, Pennsylvania, was a computer programmer who founded a social media website for Trump supporters. He had organized a trip of several dozen people to the district.
• Roseanne Boyland, 34, died by accident from acute amphetamine intoxication. Boyland, of Georgia, wanted to be a sobriety counselor and followed QAnon conspiracies, her family said.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who was injured while confronting rioters during the Jan. 6 insurrection, suffered a stroke and died from natural causes, the Washington, D.C., medical examiner’s office ruled Monday, a finding that lessens the chances that anyone will be charged in his death.
Conspiracy?
THE ATTACK ON DEMOCRACY KILLED 5 PEOPLE!!!!!
The attack on McDonalds killed most of them.
"Acute amphetemine intoxication" is one of the "natural causes of death" for Trump supporters?
You'll be buying my Authentic Trump Shorts and continuing to buy my kitty litter.
She overdosed. She wasn't killed by the riot.
You look like a clown, as usual. Get your facts straight. Google first.
the comparison should be with Hitler ONLY if the Holocaust is ignored, leaving Hitler as one among many fascist dictators
In Trash/Repugs' fascism compared with generic fascists, Trash/Repugs check all the boxes so far.
The next time the Repugs have control of Congress and WH to add to the corrupt trophy of the SCOTUS 6 and
domination of dozens of states from top to bottom,
American democracy will dead, along with two-party politics, with the Dems never again achieving effective political power at Federal level
America's myth of democracy is in great peril.
That was not determined to be natural cause. Accidental, IIRC.
But, considering what happened to Ashli Babbitt, it's pretty safe to say we didn't have to lament more death and destruction largely thanks to capitol police and the sergeant at arms.
DMC terrified of a commission investigation of his team.
5 people weren't killed at the event. 5 people died, maybe their conditions were exacerbated by the event (fat people climbing walls and jumping and stuff) but it's dishonest to pretend the event caused the deaths or that people were trampled or beaten to death. We can "ya but" all day on other things.
I'm sorry reality is happening to DMC.
I mean, technically, Ashli Babbitt 'just died of hemorrhage'. It obviates that all these people stormed a building where the democratic process of confirming the results of free and fair elections was going on, and the fact that a lot of these people entered restricted areas, and a bunch of these people vandalized the building.
I'm actually glad it was the Capitol and this bunch of crossdressers didn't try to pull off that on a military base for example, otherwise we would likely be talking about many more casualties.
It's not reductio ad absurdum to state that these people were not victims at the event, and that no one could be charged for their deaths. Comparing a gunshot victim to someone who died from cheeseburger fat in their veins isn't very intellectually honest.
People burned down businesses where free commerce was going on. Did they attack free commerce? Was free commerce threatened?
No one is arguing that anyone had a right to break into that building. I am disagreeing that it was an attack on "our democracy". It was an incursion. The attack on democracy happens at the congressional level.
Members of the mob would've kidnapped/killed Pence and members of Congress in an attempt to keep Trump in power -- i.e., an attack on democracy.
DMC will never admit this and that's why he will never be an honest broker.
Ever.
It's similarly dishonest to pretend that what happened then wasn't a direct affront to democracy. One that was incited from the very top of government officials at the time, and still goes on today.
I mean, given the room temperature IQ of some of these people, the fact that we didn't really have a complete disaster probably has more to do with DC having a strict ban on guns in that area and the capitol police.
This is a strawman. No business owner is an elected official representing cons uents across the country, and/or with the right to confirm the next President of the US. Attempts to intimidate or injure these officials are indeed a direct affront to democracy.
And destruction of property one does not own (be it the capitol or a business) is indeed an affront to property rights, and it's prosecuted all the time.
I think the message sent with that riot was pretty clear: democracy is only good when they win, otherwise the world can burn. And they would be pretty happy with a dictator as long as it's their dictator.
Tell me, where do you draw the line? Did they need to hang Mike Pence or rape AOC? I mean, what's really the act, from civilians, that would make you think they didn't really want to impede a peaceful transition of power after free and fair elections?
