Did I say something will happen criminally? No, I didn't. I said the only thing that will keep him from running is if something happens criminally.

Actually, you said unless something happens criminally, and I said it’s wishful thinking as it’ll never happen, hence there’s no unless to be concerned about. He’ll run if he wants to.

What disguise? He tells us exactly what he thinks about Jews. Are you agreeing with him? That is disgusting.

FBI stated:
There was no evidence that Trump or those around him were involved.
That the text messages from the rioters, during that day, showed that Trump wasn't involved.
That those who'd planned on entering the Capitol building had no plans after entering the building.
That only a very small few had plans to do anything.

Why wasn't Epps charged the same as Rhodes, since their actions were similar? Why, exactly, did he and his pals have a get out of jail free card?

Roger Stone has a history of this type of stuff with Brooks Brothers riot in Florida.
Yeah I have to agree. I can see them getting proof on Stone as you mention, but im not sure that links to Trump. Its even possible Trump was so bad at his job he missed it all, but I find it challenging to believe. But belief and proof are 2 different things.

Bingo…funny how folks pick and choose what they want and like to hear from the FBI…and especially funny how they ignore Epps.

The easy stuff is pretty much out of the way unless they arrest more people. All of those with minor charges because they happened to be in the wrong place ant the wrong time or got carried away an went inside but didn't cause any problems are low hanging fruit. A lot of them plead guilty and got a slap on the wrist and a small fine.

Now they are obviously to the point they are working the ones who were next to the inner circle, who were involved in planning 1/6 and communicating with those next to the top while doing it. Once they pump them dry for details, they will go after the inner circle with what they have learned, who won't have a clue going in what the investigators already know. They will probably answer the questions truthfully rather than be caught committing perjury either by lying or omission. This is SOP for any type of major investigation, and why it takes so long to produce results.

The Proud Boys, as you said, are staring down the barrel of a quarter century in Club Fed, all of which must be served if convicted. They are young men, but won't be in 2050. At least one of them is going to know something interesting and be willing to sing for a plea bargain, so maybe they can get back out in the sunshine by 2030 or so. The upgrading to charges to Seditious Conspiracy is a major uptick, and should terrify anyone who was as involved as they were. Sedition is a half step below Treason.
