Fascinating read on a former marine and NYPD officer who got radicalised by Trump into assaulting a police officer during the January 6th insurrection attempt.

Spoiler alert: he's still radicalised.

Donald Trump Wants You to Forget This Happened

I don't think #Squawkbox wants to discuss spouses in politics and their internet crimes considering #GinniThomas and her husband's role in #jan6th.
Really #CNBC? Spouses?

Some January 6 insurrectionists have received tax payer funded restitution for legal expenses after trump pardoned them for their crimes.
House bill would stop future payments.

New legislation in House would ban taxpayer money from going to Jan. 6 rioters

The bill would ban distribution of taxpayer money for any "January 6th compensation fund" and any further refund of damage payments made by convicted Capitol rioters.

Maybe Trump can't rig the #midterms. But he, and those who still stand with him, can simply deny reality, as he does constantly — as he did on that #Jan6th. Say they won, and act accordingly, even when they (and everyone else) know they lost. Say the election was stolen from them, even as they attempt to steal it from us.

No matter how electorally-minded you are, you need to ask yourself: what will you do then? When and if the regime wipes away all hope of making real change at the ballot box? Because even with Trump's current level of unpopularity, that could still happen.

Rep. @[email protected] , a #Democrat from #Colorado, used his time to show a clip of police bodycam video from the #CapitolRiot on #Jan6th, 2021, in which a man is seen yelling, "Kill 'em, kill 'em, kill 'em, get 'em, get 'em!" at #CapitolPolice officers. people.com/pam-bondi-co...

I never understood why no one ever pointed out how much of a conflict of interest that all the #Republican congressmen that ask 4 a pardon from The #PumkinfacedPardonmaster were allowed 2 vote on #Trumps agenda.. he has literally held their freedom hostage since the #JAN6th insurrection. #NOKINGS
