So the past week The House Select Committee on 1/6 come across some definite revelations regarding what happened back on January 6, 2021.
Documents released to the committee by former chief of staff to the Mad Fuhrer (Now Currently in Exile at) Mar-A-Lago Mark Meadows (who was supposed to cooperate and testify to the Committee but backed out last week) have found that while the coup attempt was going down in the Capital, several politicians were texting him asking him to tell the Mad Fuhrer (a/k/a: now former electoral vote winner Donny) to tell those who stormed the building to stop and go home. In addition Fox News personalities Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham and Bryan Kilmeade texted Meadows asking him to get his boss to stop what went down. All of this while the Mad Fuhrer watched the violence on TV and refused to comment or take action to halt it for several hours.
So why are these text messages important? Some people would say they don't mean much or that they didn't believe that add pure was in fact responsible for the capitol on January 6th. However, if that were the case I would they be texting Mark Meadows ask him to speak to his boss? When they just be asking the police for help? The answer to these questions lies in two the text messages themselves those Meadows by Fox News personalities.
For example the politicians who texted Meadows while this is going on we're asking for help because they were being ambushed. They were warning of violence at the Capitol building that was going down at the moment. Later on many of these Coupublican politicians but deny that there was violence on January 6th with some referring to it as a normal protest and one congressperson all in the mob that stormed the capital "a tourist group (never mind that no one in a tourist group as ever had attacking police officer for blue lives matter flags, stealIng fixtures and documents, are busting into a main number what chance to hang someone - in this instance co electoral vote winner Mikey - as part of their itinerary).
The texts to Meadows from two of the Fox News personalities who contacted him that day are especially telling. Laura Ingraham's text urged Meadows that " the president needs to tell people to go home" and that he was " destroying his legacy." Kilmeade's text seconded what Ingraham said claiming that those involved in the insurrection were " destroying everything [now former el electoral vote winner Donny] had accomplished." it is telling because, even though publicly that night they would downplay the violence that happened at the Capital (with Ingram even suggesting it was possibly started by activist from Black Lives Matter or Antifa), they're private text to a chief of staff urged him to get his boss to say something to stop what was going down. In other words, they knew the shit was bad and had a pretty good idea who was the blame for riling everyone up tell a March to the Capital and then and decided to see search through the capital injury not only Capital police officers but even some of their own that got caught in the stampede.
Yes a case could be made that their statements on the air left some gray area as to who is responsible. Still, if they really thought that b l m or antifa or the ones responsible for this do they think that they would have stopped because the Mad Fuhrer told them to?
The truth is they knew, or had a pretty good idea, who was responsible for the tragedy that happened last year because their guy didn't get the election results he wanted. In fact, one particular text that we haven't mentioned yet pretty much goes straight to the point of this.
In a series of texts to Meadows the Mad Fuhrer (Now Currently In Exile at) Mar-A-Lago's oldest son Little Donny urged Meadows to tell his father that " he needs to make an Oval [Office]address" and that this had " too far and had gotten out of hand." he also told Meadows that his father needed to "condemn the shit ASAP."
Put aside the strangeness of Little Donny texting his father's Chief of Staff instead of calling his father outright, what is text is that that some of this may be planned but didn't expect results to be as violent as they ended up being. As a result this awkward questions that people need to be subpoenaed and made to testify about.
Was the storming of the capital planned? If so, who was responsible for planning the siege? If the administration knew about it then how far up did the knowledge of this go? Until we get some clear answers on this the coup attempt is going to be problem or if you know of any are held to account.
Like the Fox News commentators numbers in Congress who downplayed the coup attempt Little Donny has done his part to try and deflect from what the texts he sent Meadows actually said your suit texted Meadows on that January Wednesday afternoon Little Donny also ask some idea of where are the responsibilities lies for the events of that day as his father stirred shut up and had his fans march toward the Capital to try and overturn the election results claiming he might join them (as I said earlier in this piece he didn't join them but watched it on TV instead). While they later downplayed what had happened that day all the people who texted Meadows contacted him try and get the match your to stop the storming of the Capital. The fact The Meadows is trying to claim executive privilege the reason not to testify (even though he has his own coming out on his time at the White House) shows that really didn't do much to try and make boss do something to Halt the coup attempt that day.
If these were normal times the committee would be far more of a news item than it is now. However for too long scandals have been allowed to pop up and then disappear when the pundits of the corporate controlled mainstream media go on to something else in pursuit of ratings or to distract from some issue those who owned media Outlets stop focus on.
Regardless there needs to be accountability for what happened on January 6th. We need to know how far up the ladder the attempted coup planning went, if anyone from the previous dministration was involved, and what - if anything - did the Mad Fuhrer of Mar-A-Lago know about this. Until these steps are taken The Coop applicants will continue to not take this seriously and think no one needs to be held accountable for it.
If we don't want another coup attempt to happen again in this country we need to make sure that someone is held accountable for this.
