It's being reported that Secret Service texts were scrubbed because several agents were cheering on the J6 mob.

A good post. My only point of contention with the "deep state had it in for Trump," is if it were true, why didn't it just blow his brains out or shoot his plane out of the sky, which is their usual MO. Hell, Comey gave him the final boost he needed to be elected with his Weiner laptop bullshit, with the help of the New York Times which relentless stoked the stupid email server stuff throughout the entire campaign. I wonder if any of the 911 hijackers ever lived with the Paines?

Nick Adams lied. There is no anonymous source. They haven’t denied anything. Stop falling for this bullshit. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/secret-service-debunked-hutchinson/ The Secret Service statement, which did not debunk Hutchinson’s testimony, read as follows: “The United States Secret Service has been cooperating with the Select Committee since its inception in spring 2021, and will continue to do so, including by responding on the record to the Committee regarding the new allegations surfaced in today’s testimony.”

Big difference between saying you are willing to testify to try to plant doubt about something or someone and actually testifying. Just look at Ginny Thomas and Mark Meadows. They were bravely willing to testify too, until they weren't. Those agents will never testify. They know if they did there would be a whole lot of other stuff they'd have to answer for under oath and like most rightwingers, they are too cowardly to do so.

How was she discredited? Are you referring to the graphic of the limo making the rounds of deranged rightwingers with Trump flashing the white power sign? Or the USSS agents who weren't under oath disputing an insignificant element of the testimony?

She testified under oath. Nobody denying it has. I'd be interested in Vince Palarama's thoughts on the events of the day.

Don't totally disagree, but this is a little misleading. Southern States would not sign off on the Constitution without the expressed right to mobilize a militia to put down slave rebellions.

Just FYI, not worthy of it's own thread but just saw this and thought I would post here if anyone is interested in bidding. https://shopgoodwill.com/item/145779809

I seem to recall seeing a clip at one point years ago. What was on it could not be identified as an airplane.

Finally got to see JFK Revisted on Showtime over the weekend at my sister's. It was great. She and her husband are wealthy and live in Ft. Worth. They flew me down to play in their member-guest tournament. Brother-in-law drove me through this neighborhood with mansions. "This is the old money," he said. I noted these were the people who had JFK killed.

Denied.

When I first read Pat's comments I immediately thought of Bobby Hargis getting splattered and how that played into what he is saying. It seems Hargis thought it could have been a shot from behind as well. I'd appreciate Pat expanding on that.

They guy's an ex-cop, too, as I understand it. Imagine what he would have done had he pulled someone over and the suspect exercised his first amendment rights by calling him an f'ing pig?

Agreed, not to mention that it's the basis of the game "The Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon." Everybody who was anybody was in the movie and it's why everyone can be so easily linked to Bacon.

Okie-Dokie! W. ---I guess no one is even hiding it now. There has been a heavy re-composition of what used to be the "left-wing" media. I came to this conclusion in 2008, I believe. When Dennis Kucinich was running for president and the supposedly ultra-liberal Daily Kos waged a ferocious campaign against him. It was then I learned that Daily Kos founder Markos Moulitsas trained with the CIA when he was in the military. I believe his blog was established and promoted to try to put establishment limits on what was considered acceptable liberal politics.

Sounds about right: Anti-Vaxxer Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s House Party Guests Told to Get Vaccinated Before Coming https://www.thedailybeast.com/robert-f-kennedy-jr-house-party-guests-were-told-to-get-vaccinated-before-coming?via=newsletter&source=BI-CS-All

There is evidence. Don't police notes indicate Oswald claiming to be out on the steps at the time of the assassination? That's why authorities made the panicked visit to Billy Lovelady's home the evening of the assassination to get him to confirm that is him in Altgens 6.

This seems not dissimilar to the "Somebody would have talked" argument. Anybody who saw him outside simply would have been killed, intimidated, etc., like so many others who could have talked.

Peter Bradshaw gives a none-too-glowing review in the Guardian today. Calls JFK a hawk on Vietnam.

This quote from her essay stills stands a good chance of playing out. Did Hungary or Poland beat us to it? As William L. Shirer, author of The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, put it in speaking of the excesses of the Nixon administration, "We could become the first country to go fascist through free elections."

Good reads over at the Daily Beast. One published in the New York Daily News Nov. 24, and the other after the funeral. I had never read these. https://www.thedailybeast.com/jimmy-breslin-on-jfks-assassination-two-classic-columns

Could the Q people showing up at Dealey Plaza (again today) in fact be deep state actors trying to conflate Q lunacy in the minds of the general populace with legitimate JFK assassination skepticism? Seems like something they would be capable of doing.

Obviously it wasn't a coup attempt because Trump immediately dispatched troops and guardsmen to protect the Capitol, right?

My point was not being charged with something doesn't equate to innocence. Just because Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee were not tried, convicted and hanged, had their assets stripped and their families sent into exile, does not mean they were not traitors. And because none of that transpired, these people and their descendants have been causing trouble ever since.

Do you know how many people were charged with treason after the Civil War?
