Another fabricated January 6 claim unravels:

By Mike Huckabee

Another day, another fabricated Democrat claim about the “Great Insurrection” unravels in public like a cheap suit.

Rep. Liz Cheney claimed that once the violence in the Capitol started, President Trump waited 187 minutes, or over three hours, before saying anything about it. She railed that he “refused to act when action by our president was required, indeed essential, and compelled by his oath to our Constitution.” She called this long delay a “supreme dereliction of duty.”

There’s also another, more accurate, term for it: “fictitious.”

The Federalist compared the timeline of the Capitol violence to the timestamps on Trump’s tweets. The first building was breached around 2:13 to 2:15 p.m. At 2:38 p.m., Trump tweeted, “Please support our Capitol Police and Law Enforcement. They are truly on the side of our Country. Stay peaceful!”

About 30 minutes later, he tweeted, “I am asking for everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence! Remember, WE are the Party of Law & Order — respect the Law and our great men and women in Blue. Thank you!”

At 4:17, he posted a video urging the rioters to go home, which Twitter promptly suppressed because “TRUUUUUUMP!!!”

Cheney’s office did not respond to the Federalist's inquiries about where she got that 187-minute figure. I’m guessing it came from Adam Schiff, who got it off his Rotten Apple watch.

“Not This (BLEEP) Again!”

Apr 26, 2024
With polls showing Trump leading Biden by seven points in Arizona, the state’s Democrat Attorney General Kris Mayes announced (coincidentally, I’m sure) multiple felony indictments of a number of top Republicans for allegedly attempting to “overturn” Biden’s win.

Biden to Morehouse College

Apr 26, 2024
The Biden campaign is so terrified that he’s losing black voters to Trump that they’ve booked Biden as the commencement speaker at historically black Morehouse College in Atlanta. They either didn’t anticipate or were desperate enough to take the risk that putting Biden onto a college campus at this moment would be like tossing a cat into a dog pound. Or as Biden himself might say, like yelling “Movie!” in a crowded firehouse.

    We all know this is just to try to keep Trump from being able to run again, no matter how far fetched the accusations seem to be. Also with no accountability for lying their as*%s off

    Liz Cheney is worse than her father. She needs to join the Democratic Party and quit sucking from the republicans as she is obviously not a conservative

    I could write a book about all that is going on. One thought I have not heard or read is this. I sincerely believe the left is pushing and pushing the right trying to provoke violence so they can use it against us.
    You and the other voices with large followers need to keep any violence out of the picture. Now I don’t put it past the left to disguise themselves as conservatives and start something violent. But, please exhort your many peers to call for non-violence!!!

    I read what our president, Donald Trump, was saying on Facebook about how he wanted peaceful protesting and that he wanted no violence. I had wished I had screen shot all of his posts that day because just like that, it all got taken off of Facebook. I sort of thought that that didn't fit the left's narrative so they had to do something so people couldn't actually see what he was really saying.

    You absolutely nailed it....chaney must be hallucinating and schmitt for brains is right with her. If these people only realized how fed up so many of the American people are they would stop their lies and fabricated stories. They are doing nothing more than wasting tax payer money but in the end........they will get theirs.

    I am afraid January next year will see only names and faces and targets change as the other side continues the march to no where. My thought is - with the DOJ firmly in enemy territory - nothing substantial will ever get accomplished by bickering. Just lay out the tapes, videos, and snap shots over a period of time to allow those who are clear headed a view of the overall picture. For those who are allowing this to continue unabated - need to be tossed out on their 'Post hastier'.

    Is there nothing that we can do about these people who openly lie? Doesn’t their oath of office require honesty?

    Why is the left (other than the obvious, “The media predominantly protects all leftists!”), always allowed to lie, cheat, and steal but conservative debunking and opinions are never allowed to surface?

    If Liz Che eh is returned to office I. 2022, we are truly lost as a nation. Hate is truly a part of the democratic and RINO parties!

    RINO Liz, her leftist legislators and the media won’t be satisfied until they’ve destroyed our country with their lies.
