in an ideal world i would want to see the insurection act reformed however we still have a split congress before 2024 so realisticly the chances of that happening are 1% at best
 
your "bless your little heart" response is really not a good way to try and hold a higher ground above someone; it comes off as unwarranted arrogance from someone who has never earned it.
I hope you have a happy holiday also, I see nothing wrong with that.

Have a blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year Dark, the section wouldn’t be the same without you.
I accept your apology for having gone off the rails on completely imaginary grounds.

Interesting, reformed how?

I haven’t made any apologies. I’ve stuck to the point quite strictly, I simply wasn’t (and still am not) interested in anything that immediately followed your premise since the premise was demonstrated to be incorrect (conclusively so).

making an isurection charged similar to treason (barred from running for potus and indirect support would do the same) heck why not go further most states bar anyone convicted from holding state office w need no criminals of any sort (on either side of the aisle) running our government

The premise I "made" exists only in your head because you're your usual lying gaslighting self, as I conclusively demonstrated, since I said nothing at all and you went completely off the rails with your own interpretation. And failed even at that, since you stopped at 2018 and couldn't go around showing "decades" of nothing. And lastly, since I wasn't talking to you and you just had to butt in, you are incorrect in principle since what I wrote to TraderBoomer doesn't necessarily apply to you. Unless you finally revealed your multiple accounts?

And I'm being generous since I have a massive temperature :) Courtesy of your malignant "wishes" I'm sure; you jinx.

Inciting insurrection is already an offence which allows ban from running from public office, yes?
 
(…) since you stopped at 2018 and couldn't go around showing "decades" of nothing.
I gave one example. What, you want more examples? In the 2000 election scores of Democrats claimed that Gore “would’ve won” if “all votes in Florida were counted”, and later they blamed the SCOTUS for “stealing the election” from them. In 2004 they challenged Ohio’s electoral college, claiming “irregularities” were to blame for Kerry’s loss, and wanted to throw those votes away. Between 2016 and 2020 all you could hear was that Trump was an “illegitimate president” who was “installed by Russia” - that didn’t turn out to hold much water either. All of this is common knowledge for anyone who’s followed American politics for longer than the last 5 minutes. How many examples do you want before it’s “decades”? :lol:

Insurrection carries a fine, up to 10 years imprisonment or both and a lifetime ban on running for office.

By contrast, treason is punishable by death or imprisonment for no less than 5 years and a fine.

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2381

My general understanding is that treason is considered more severe - it’s a crime against the United States (as an entire country), whereas an insurrection is an act against the government (currently in office).

What does "decades" mean? Just to comply with that basic requirement. A "decade" is an interval of 10 years so saying "decades" implies at least two of said 10-year intervals where election denial happens more than once for a prolonged period of time, usually lasting until the present.

I mean, Russia swinging the vote online towards Trump is an ascertained fact, confirmed by the Russian themselves earlier this year. As is the Troll factory. Unless you're saying Russia is lying about itself just to stir chaos? And it didn't depend on Russia alone either, since Cambridge Analytica and Facebook case is real. Not that this is election-denying in any way, but sure, let's count it like that.

More importantly I said nothing, that was Trader Boomer and you going off the rails to feed your own little fantasies and failing to score points.

The original sentence is not even syntax-wise correct but sure, I suppose that "2 instances", which also had grounds of truth, rather than being completely baseless, in twenty-two years counts for your two misleading heads as "been denying for decades" about something. Usually to say that you'd require something that still keeps going on, which there isn't, but sure, you say they did the same thing Trump did 🤔

Get well soon

Actually, there are emails between the FBI and Twitter where the FBI was telling Twitter who to ban and censor. Then they paid Twitter millions of dollars. I mean, if you support fascism, then just say so.
Oh please, copy and paste one of those emails which directly shows that the FBI wanted someone banned for their political beliefs and not for election disinformation. They had occasionally sent out messages publicly saying the accounts “may potentially constitute violations of Twitter’s Terms of Service”. Yeah, great order there. And as I mentioned, one of those accounts is still up and running. Also, as I mentioned earlier, but you ignored, is that when the FBI is legally requesting information for an investigation, the companies receiving those requests can be reimbursed for fulfilling them. Sorry, but it's common knowledge that has been going on forever.

Well, since other people did wrong, everybody afterward can do the same. Good kindergarten logic you got there.
Just looking for consistency for what you believe is a giant issue. You have none, though. I never said it was an issue in the first place.

A mugging where nothing was stolen off of him. He still had all of his money and jewelry. Explain why the FBI is fighting tooth and nail to keep his laptops hidden.
Then go and get to the bottom of it. Your talents are needed in the world! While you're at it, go solve every other cold case while you're at it. I'll be cheering you on. Godspeed!

So for Trump, it's an open and shut case even though he's still playing golf any time he pleases, but when it comes to the Cllintons, it better be an airtight case. Yeah, you're not a tribalist at all, lol.
It's only an open and shut case NOW. It wasn't just after the events of Jan 6th. They worked hard, did the investigation, and now have 814 pages of extremely damning evidence. That isn't even including what the DOJ already has collected by themselves. It was a long process, but ultimately it should bear fruit. They've already come at Trump with what MOST would believe were air tight cases, and his witness tampering caused them to not be able to make a final verdict of guilt. The Mueller report was clear on the point that it was not an exoneration.

I hate to do this to you on Christmas morning, but Democrats objected election results in 2001, 2004 and 2016. You are free to check my math, but 2001 was 21 years ago and that constitutes more than one decade, hence why I used the plural decades.

I don't mind. For me, Christmas is over. But for him to be here on Christmas morning spewing his garbage, he must be REALLY lonely. I'll give him the company he so desperately desires before I head to bed :D
someone has to take care of our senior population. and for free no less. you're truly spreading the christmas spirit.

Requirement fulfilled then, since the cited examples span from 2000 to 2020, which is two decades, and multiple races. Not sure why you’d limit it to presidents, but even that requirement is also fulfilled.

So apparently libs of tiktok was at january6th. This didn't come from the hearings for clarity sake. But rather related to january 6th.
Apparently she was in the restricted zone after she exposed her face on tucker Carlson. This doesn't mean she breeched the capital/entered the building.
