I'm still having a really difficult time wrapping my head around

From there, texts and other reporting shows, Perry lobbied for Clark to become acting attorney general in a last-ditch effort to keep Trump in office that would have seen federal law enforcement wade into the outcome of an election that had already been decided.

An actual attempted coup, for the first time in our history, and nobody has seen any sort of punishment whatsoever.

Instead, we voted the party that attempted the coup into the majority in the House.

After the next one is successful, history is going to look back and simply say, "duh".

The outline purportedly follows Clark from, as he described it, "a young deplorable in Philadelphia," to the pinnacle of his career: winter 2020, when he showed Trump a letter that, if appointed AG, he would send to Georgia advising it that the DOJ had determined fraud rendered the election in the state inconclusive.

Showing Trump a letter saying you are willing to debase yourself for him because he isn't a good loser is the pinnacle of your career?

Perry and Clark are traitors who need to be blindfolded and placed before a firing squad.

Also, this ad from TFA looks like what happens when LOL collides with WTF:

He's so good at losing, I would venture to call his comment "bullshiat."

/the only bad part is that he fails upwards and never sees consequences

I don't think this could be said any better. They talked revolution, but when as soon as blood was spilled on their side, they meekly filed out the door and headed home to their nice warm beds.

I gotta say, that they drank their own bile so much that they actually were keeping records of their coup, so they could profit off of and record for history their treason, is singlehandedly the dumbest and ballsiest thing I've ever seen. The audacity of the whole thing is mind blowing.

It's like if George Washington had hired British tabloids to follow him as he crossed the Delaware, except instead of crossing, he shot a cannon ball through his own ship and all the Brits got to watch him sink.

If you RTFA in his early drafts he writes "this is not privledge information" then after the search warrent changes it in an attempt to suppress the evidence and the judge called it "throwing spaghetti on the wall" and denied the privledge claim

Not the first. It wasn't even the first attempted fascist coup in the United States.

In 1933 Bush the Smarter's father Prescott Bush tried it. He attempted to recruit Marine Major-General Smedley Butler to overthrow FDR to install a pro-Hitler, fascist regime. Fortunately for all, Butler was a genuine patriot. He stayed with them long enough to collect the evidence needed to convict them which he then offered to Congress.

Congress ignored his testimony and refused to question any of the conspirators. Of course they were all wealthy and powerful industrialists. The story received little press.

The lessons to be learned here are:

1) Smedley Butler is a true underappreciated hero.
2) The ultra-rich will gladly turn to fascism when labourers organise to assert their rights.
3) The ultra-rich will use their power to quash both legitimate criminal charges against themselves and legitimate negative press.
4) Never trust a member of the Bush family. But you knew that one already. Along with at least two of the above lessons.

I disagree. He's an outstanding loser. Maybe the biggest loser of all time. OF ALL TIME.

"a young deplorable in Philadelphia"

On Clark's book tour:
Reporter: So in your memoir did you embrace Clinton's deplorable comment?

Clark: No, I come from a long line of deplorable traitors. We were calling ourselves deplorable before it became the fashion.

Scott Perry is trash. And I have to live with that, because he is my representative. How can someone be a Brigadier General in the US Army and a congressman and still find a way to violate every oath of office they ever took?

Having watched that as it was happening, that's not really how I'd describe it.  Even the people in that room immediately around her, mostly had no idea anyone was shot.

There was one guy who shortly after started yelling "Medic! Medic!" and most of the others in that room had no idea what was happening.

I'd characterize it more as, they were thwarted by a locked door that they couldn't force themselves through.

At least, that wing of it.  I have no idea what was happening in the other hallways and corridors, as far as what stopped them.

That heroic black cop diverted the ones who were going for the Senate chamber. Babbit was killed outside the House chamber. The racism of the traitors going for the Senate caused them to chase the black guy instead of sticking to their plan of taking the Senate chambers.

All drafts, she wrote, contained a line noting that "[n]one of this outline reveals privileged information."

Why would you do that?  I can't think of a single reason why you'd want to do that.  I can't even think of a reason why anyone would THINK to do that.

"I'm going to write my life story, so in a draft outline of that story I'm going to explicitly state that it's OK to share the information in it...before I've reviewed it in an editing process to make sure that wouldn't hurt me."

I'm not the lawyer, he is.  But that just seems really stupid to me.
