The action on the 6th Jan wasn't just a bunch of loonies. This was nationally co-ordinated and controlled from behind the scenes. If not publicly, someone was pulling the strings on behalf of President.

I'm just waiting for (now his account has been permanently suspended) Trump to come out and claim he never said/tweeted any of those tweets in the past 4/5 years.
It would be peak "stable genius" of him to think that because we can now no longer see his historical diary of tweets, that he'll think they don't exist too.
Quoting myself I know but further to this, before the Cheeto tinted one had his tweety bird account suspended, someone (a far righter I gather) backed up his entire twitter feed and his account now "exists" on Gab. Gab, I am led to believe is a far right version of Twitter. More to the point if Orange small child was going to claim he had never tweeted his stuff, he now has his own admirers to thank for keeping all evidence in the public domain. Nice bit of irony to update on  |

TBF that doesn't mean it wasn't a bunch of loonies either though  It has been pointed out repeatedly by people looking into this that it's a remarkable coincidence that Trump pardoned the Blackwater (private army operating with US forces in Iraq) operatives responsible for a massacre of civilians in Baghdad in 2007 that led to an upsurge in support for Al Qaeda in Iraq at the time just a week or so before the coup. Paying back favours? Or showing people who needed to be shown that they wouldn't be punished? |

DoJ now saying in court documents that at least some of the rioters planned to kidnap and assassinate elected officials, including Mike Pence  |

The QAnon Congresswoman (no, I'm not exaggerating she really does believe in QAnon) also has some other quite "out there" theories, including this one: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/marjorie-taylor-greene-qanon-wildfires-space-laser-rothschild-execute.htmlShe thinks the California Wildfires a couple of years ago were started by a "Jewish Space Laser" because, I don't fucking know. But this woman stood and was elected to the House of Representatives as a mainstream Republican candidate. That's how fucking batshit the Republican Party has become now. And it's why Trump is likely to escape being convicted in the impeachment trial. |

In it's defence, Georgia did vote for Biden and the two Democrat Senators, but yes, the political spectrum skews over a cliff on the right side.

The QAnon Congresswoman MJT also subscribes to the Alex Jones/InfoWars' lie that the Sandy Hook and Parkland massacres (school shootings) were false flags and was warned for harrassing one of the teenage survivors, chasing him down the street calling him a liar. So, of course, the Republicans have just nominated her to sit as a Republican representative on the House Education Committee. State Republican parties across the US are censuring or trying to oust elected representatives who criticised or even mentioned Trump's role in the Capitol insurrection. The Republican base has just gone full out fascist. |
