I thought it was funny.
So burning down police stations isn't insurrection?
I thought it was funny.
You really care about these trumpers dont you?
How was it insurrection?
A police station isn't city hall.
Did Trump and His Supporters Commit Treason?
For years, Carlton F. W. Larson, a treason scholar and law professor at the University of California, Davis,
has swatted away loose treason accusations by both Donald Trump and his critics.
During Trump’s Presidency, Larson told me, his colleagues teased him by asking, “Is it treason yet?”
He always said no.
But the insurrection of January 6th changed his answer,
at least with regard to Trump’s followers who attacked the Capitol in an attempt to stop Congress’s certification of the election.
“It’s very clear that would have been seen as ‘levying war,’ ” he said.

https://www.courthousenews.com/fbi-p...t-before-riot/U.S. Capitol Police and agents from the FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were called to the Republican National Committee’s office around 12:45 p.m. on Jan. 6. About 30 minutes later, as the agents and bomb technicians were still investigating at the RNC, another call came in for a second, similar explosive device found at the Democratic National Committee headquarters nearby.
The two explosive devices were very similar, and both were about a foot long with end caps and wiring that appeared to be attached to a timer, two law enforcement officials familiar with the matter have told The Associated Press. Investigators are still examining the devices and their components to determine the specific compounds inside the pipe bombs, but they both appeared to contain an unknown powder and some metal, the officials said.
The officials could not discuss an ongoing investigation publicly and spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity.
The FBI released additional photos of the explosive devices on Friday, including a photograph that showed one of the devices placed underneath a bush. Officials have also increased the reward in the case to $100,000.

He should have let her and all her fellow, peaceful rioters find the senators and congressmen, tbh. "Hang Mike Pence! hang my Pence! Hang my Pence!"
that's a bit of a stretch.
Tell Webster. It's not like it's not already stretched by calling it that, when those people had no intention of overthrowing the government. They were just breaking . Don't get me wrong, I think they should have shot all of them, but the tight roping you folks do to keep your high ground is amusing as .
You think they picked the day by accident?
Did you notice that they did successfully disrupt the ministerial duty of the US Congress to certify the election?
Do you think they intended to take over the government?
... one of staff absconded with the box with the EC votes. What if Trash's insurrectionist cult mob had gotten them?
They intended to take actions to keep Trump in power.
Yeah, probably no other record of the EC votes.
Nobody ever said they were smart, Karrin.
What is with you apologists? Are you mentally ill too?
It doesn't matter. Overrunning the Congress in session to try to stop it from certifying the winner of the election was a per se revolt against the US.
(To answer your question, the intent to topple government was there, zero doubt at it, just listen to the vids. Execution, not soo much.)
I understand you have to be pedantic about this because you secretly wish they had succeeded.
They wanted to do several things -- they all wanted Trump to continue being president and most of the actions were towards that end.

Secretly?
He hasn't explicitly said it. It will be part of one of his emotional outbursts when he's corrected on his grammar some day.
His “I just point out hypocrisy and everyone flips out! I’m so smart!” self quote is on the way.
