I am willing to bet that the Trump "administration" deliberately took those actions in the Northern Triangle, cutting aid, to push people into coming to the United States, so they could be used as they were to foment the "border crisis."

Gosar is definitely a traitor. His family has disowned him and actually campaigned against him when he ran for re-election. I will be completely unsurprised when it comes out that the long speech he gave was deliberate in its timing, to hold the House in session for the assault, so that Democratic members could be grabbed. Remember, they brought a gallows with them to the Capitol assault.

These traitors came sooooooo close to carrying off their Coup d'Etat. It wasn't an "insurrection" - that implies a spontaneous act by people who are "mad as hell and not going to take any more." This was planned and manufactured over the two months following their electoral loss. Start calling it what it was: a Coup d'Etat that failed, just barely - an act of treason in "declaring war on the United States" as the crime is defined in the Constitution. And it was led by the President of the United States.

And if they refuse to prosecute him for the worst crime a president can commit, all in the name of “moving forward,” I might have to riot by myself.

I want to write, Hear, Hear! But always wonder if it should be Here, Here! Is it my imagination or do they both work?

It's not your imagination, Jeanne.

Exactly, Reagan started “helping” Central America way back there. After his disasterous amnesty plan, and guess what? A club to beat Dems with forever…

I just saw "Under Fire" for the upteenth time on MGM Channel. Anyone who would like to get a good "bone deep" sense about this country and what we do will be well-educated if you watch this movie. The first script my friend Ron Shelton wrote, Nick Nole and Gene Hackman and Joanna Pacula at their heights. It was released the day after Reagan declared war on Nicaragua.

Is the penalty for treason still death?
