"Overall, we rate Revolver.News right biased and Questionable based on poor sourcing techniques and a complete lack of transparency." Source: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/revolver-news/
Trumpers would be nothing without their fake news.
Bidenettes won’t be nothing without the cnn a branch of the DNC
..We at Revolver News have noticed a pattern from our now months-long investigation into 1/6 — and in particular from our meticulous study of the charging documents related to those indicted. In many cases the unindicted co-conspirators appear to be much more aggressive and egregious participants in the very so-called “conspiracy” serving as the basis for charging those indicted.
The question immediately arises as to why this is the case, and forces us to consider whether certain individuals are being protected from indictment because they were involved in 1/6 as undercover operatives or confidential informants for a federal agency.
Here it is useful to draw a distinction between two discrete categories of participants in the so-called Capitol Siege.
The first category is the group of mostly harmless tourists who walked through already opened doors and already-removed barricades, and at most were guilty of minor trespassing charges and light property offenses. The second group consists of those who were violent with police officers, broke down barricades, smashed windows, belonged to a “militia” group engaged in military-style planning prior to the event, discussed transporting heavy weaponry, and so forth.
Up until now, the overwhelming (perhaps exclusive) share of counter-establishment reporting on 1/6 has focused on absolving the first group. And this is a valuable thing. The notion that these harmless “MAGA moms” wandering around the Capitol were domestic terrorists engaged in an insurrection is absurd. That many of these people are being held in prison, without bail, under harsh conditions, amounts to an unacceptable and outrageous abuse of basic human rights.
it's too bad that gateway pundit and revolver news are so horrible to look at the websites and are written in such one-sided inflammatory ways (not that the NYT, WaPo, etc aren't one-sided and inflammatory too).
But, there are some facts and some possibilities that we should all be seeking the truth from.
1. It appears clear that Federal officials sought covert infiltration of several groups. There's nothing wrong with that.
2. Whatever the story/truth about unindicted co-conspirators is needs to see the light of day. Because of the undercover people led, encouraged, or carried out the violence against the LEO's that day, that's pretty freaking important.
3. The idea that Federal prosecutors seem to consistently seek no bail for those charged is ridiculous and without merit. How many "BLM protestors" that were charged with violent crimes were held without bail? Here's one example https://www.ajc.com/news/north-fulto...FDB4RH2QCBIWM/
70% have gotten released. Still, it's a sadly humorous article to read, since there's one attorney arguing that Hispanics held without bail for immigration crimes should also be released.
Of course it was, but Republicans don't want an independent commission to find out what the hell happened.
Democrats do.
So what do you make of that?
I know you were addressing a different poster, and you are one of the resident lefties here, but do you ever see things from a neutral perspective?
The question is posed because according the Gov Cuomo (who is the lefts darling governor), he is opposed an independent commission to investigate him, because no investigation is independent. Frankly it is an absurd and hypocritical assertion, since he himself has called for investigations of other people. But as is typical, the MSM treats him with kid gloves compared to (R) politicians.
I lean right (especially in more recent years), but I would not have a problem with a truly independent investigation of every aspect of the incident, wherever that may lead.
That would include if there was any type of government involvement whether it being agitators among the group, or knowing in advance and allowing it to happen. So they could find Trump responsible, but they should also be at liberty to find Pelosi culpable as well.
After all, she is responsible for the capitol polices conduct and preparedness.
Thus a big question is who would appoint the independent council to investigate, and would they have free reign to look at everyone, including the majority party that would have more influence over who made up the council?
Or will be it pre-ordained by Pelosi & Co just to try and go after Trump for the umpteenth time.
Dec. 12: "WE HAVE JUST BEGUN TO FIGHT!!!" Trump said in another tweet.
Dec. 19: Trump tweeted his praise for a report by his adviser Peter Navarro alleging election fraud: "A great report by Peter. Statistically impossible to have lost the 2020 Election. Big protest in D.C. on January 6th. Be there, will be wild!"
Dec. 26: Trump tweeted: "The ‘Justice’ Department and the FBI have done nothing about the 2020 Presidential Election Voter Fraud, the biggest SCAM in our nation’s history, despite overwhelming evidence. They should be ashamed. History will remember. Never give up. See everyone in D.C. on January 6th."
Dec. 27: "See you in Washington, DC, on January 6th. Don’t miss it. Information to follow!" Trump tweeted.
Jan. 1: "The BIG Protest Rally in Washington, D.C., will take place at 11.00 A.M. on January 6th. Locational details to follow. StopTheSteal!" Trump tweeted.

Jan. 3: Trump retweeted @JenLawrence21, an organizer of a March for Trump bus tour: "Now we will bring it to DC on Jan 6 and PROUDLY stand beside you!"
Jan. 3: Trump retweeted Amy Kremer, another promoter of the march who said, "We are excited to announce the site of our January 6th event will be The Ellipse in the President’s Park, just steps from the White House!"
Jan. 3: Trump retweeted @CodeMonkeyZ: "If you are planning to attend peaceful protests in DC on the 6th, i recommend wearing a body camera. The more video angles of that day the better."
Jan. 4: At a rally in Georgia the day before the Senate runoffs, Trump repeated his grievances about his own election. He spoke about a continued fight, both for himself and the Senate.
"If the liberal Democrats take the Senate and the White House — and they’re not taking this White House — we’re going to fight like hell, I’ll tell you right now," Trump said.

Means nothing.. both sides say fight all the time.. I didn't see any fists flying.. No guns, just milling around ..Antifa was there , BLM activists were there to incite.
We found out that the lefties were trying to tell the Trump supporters to burn the place down. How about that. Burn it down, burn it all down.. on tape no less.
