High gas prices are, for many, an inconvenience (and more, for others). The January 6, 2021 Capitol riots were an existential threat to American democracy. Lisa Benson doesn’t seem to understand the difference, or doesn’t care.
The Disciples greatly admire Their Messiah for all his actions on 1/6, especially his attempt to invade the Capitol with an armed mob — a violent attempt to overthrow the government of the United States.
It is not just Trump that is the problem, it is the millions of His Disciples who believe he should have succeeded in his effort.
Say, Lisa, since this is a “Christian” country, why don’t they all get together and pray for lower prices? It must work, for the Bible says ‘ask, and ye shall receive’, Can’t get any plainer than that.
Jan 6 is not a “hearing”. In a hearing, you follow rules of evidence and cross-examine witnesses. In a “circus”, you mount a production that’s calculated for political value. “Now in ring three, watch the spectacle of a conservative vice president’s daughter jump through hoops at the command of ringmaster Pelosi!”
How can any sane person downplay January 6th. It was one of the lowest points in the history of American democracy. It will literally be in text books for generations to come.
Must we continually complain about the same item in the economy? Nixon wasn’t blamed for gasoline’s doubling of prices from the beginning of 1973 until he resigned, and it was Nixonomics Phase III that released the inflation of the 1970’s. There was also the October War which only made gasoline worse with the Arab embargo.
Seriously, Jan 6 is a joke to you? I wish the Secret Service had driven trump to the Capital Building. He’d be in jail now and I wouldn’t have to worry about the future our Democracy for a while.
Households, on average, are spending the same proportion of their expenses on gas as they did before the surge in prices. That’s because household incomes have risen, too.
The only lives lost were 2 folks murdered by the Capital Police! One had no weapon was shot by a murdering Capital Police Officer the other was beaten to death by 3 or 4 murdering Capital Police Officers!!!
BREAKING, Leaked Documents Show Tens Of Millions From Ukraine Paid To Kerry, Biden Jr Fund, ReportTFPP WireNovember 14, 2019Documents have been discovered that show cash transfers from a Ukrainian gas company to a slush fund operated by several major Democrats.
The slush fund is reportedly run by former Secretary of State John Kerry, John Kerry Jr., another Kerry family member and Hunter Biden, Michael Coudrey reported.
“Leaked documents from the Ukrainian General Prosecutor’s office indicate complex money transfers from foreign sources into the control of a ‘slush fund’ owned and operated by Devon Archer, John Kerry Senior, John Kerry Junior, Heinz Jr, and Hunter Biden,” he said.
Nothing to see, can’t have anything to do with anything, just regular, good ole clean energy business dealings.
Gee, whiz Lisaleased, claiming all Americans can only entertain one thought at a time. Your friends, maybe? Oh, and I’m sorry you don’t understand basic economics as it relates to petroleum products and the global economy. I’d want to take a class or something. But that’s me, I guess.
What a Crock…..Of course attempting to take the life of a Supreme Court Justice, well, that’s alright because we don’t agree with him. It’s just as illegal, but not even mentioned in most Liberal rags and TV shows. That’s OK, the Secret Service will testify that Trump didn’t try to take over the vehicle he was riding in, and there goes all of your credibility.
People are still believing this kangaroo court? It is not a trial when the witness cannot be cross examined. And hearsay is not evidence. Are the american left so dim that they cannot see this is bread and circus for the masses?

Lisa needs to take a sabbatical and learn something about economics and US government. Or maybe all she’s cut out for is mindless propaganda.
