Peaceful and patriotic March
Not sure what part of that dems can't comprehend

[helendavis]

REALLY??? Nothing like picking the smallest detail apart!

[michaelpearson]

We’re we’re you at that time If I recall he said we will peacefully walk down to the capitol and make your voices heard

Another young woman with more spine than her older counterparts, GOP.

He needs to be prosecuted. No more treating this issue as if it wasn't a serious crime

[annefitz]

These young women have more courage than the middle aged & older men who Should have a stopped this debacle months ago 😡

I found her to be so much more honorable than what’s his face sitting next to her. He twisted himself into a pretzel by trying to compliment the traitor. It seems when he saw new footage on the screens, it seemed like he would then buck up but no, twisted himself into a pretzel again before finally calling all of those actions out. She is WAY MORE honorable than him.

Anyone else find themselves admiring a Republican just telling the truth about Jan 6?

If Putin told Trump to stop that riot, he would've been on camera instantly.

[Chapps]

Where was Trump. He was abrogating his responsibility as Commander and Chief to protect the country, it's integrity and it's institutions

[loosegoosey]

These are the true heroes of our country, more Guts, Balls, and integrity... Liz, Adam, and this Heroine...along with every officer who truly fought off the insurectionist, and didn't let them past the gates on purpose...WE know what you did...WE are coming for all of you...Starting with Mr.

[omcorc]

Her specifics on what could have been done is golden. And truly damning to the former traitor in chief (I mean traitor sincerely. Those are the charges he should be facing, also no with many others).

[joeycrooker]

People have free will, to do as they wish, even if encouraged to be

[shaneleonard]

How would anyone at the gathering "outside" of the whitehouse seen it? 🤔

[kelvinramdall]

When you become a adult you become responsible for your own actions. Damit people, wake up and be a ADULT!!!!

[patriciawilson]

Could’ve, would’ve, should’ve.
Yet he chose to do nothing at all.
-0-.

Lmfao. This woman was caught in so many lies. She lied like a rug. No one with any sense at all believes her.

[leanoramccarthy]

Did anyone really think him not having time to make a statement to calm his dogs was a thing? Like, was that in question, cuz that is ridiculous. All he did was run his mouth incessantly.

[rickhale]

I despise what ifs that say what if this happened instead. Delusional and fantasy.
