Liberal Actor, Dem Rep. Compare Trump Supporters To Al-Qaeda, Says Trump Is ‘Bin Laden’ (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , /by

More than 74 million Americans voted last November to reelect President Donald Trump. Now actor Sean Penn has compared supporters of the president to al-Qaeda, the radical Islamic terrorist network, in what is the latest example of the left’s attempts to demonize conservatives as homicidal terrorists.

Sean Penn also likened President Trump to Osama Bin Laden in a tweet on Wednesday. . .

Penn’s inflammatory rhetoric comes as Democrats and the media ramp up comparisons of conservatives to terrorists, even as many of them are calling for “unity” and “healing.”

In an interview this week on PBS’s Newshour, Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) compared President Trump to Bin Laden and his supporters to terrorists who were “inspired and radicalized people to storm the Capitol.”

FBI: People Are Going to Be ‘Shocked’ to Learn What Happened Inside the Capitol; WATCH: Analysis Concludes Antifa Provoked Shooting of Air Force Vet at Capitol

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Townhall. At a press conference from the Justice Department on Tuesday, the FBI addressed last Wednesday’s violence on Capitol Hill, and the steps they’re taking to identify and bring the culprits to justice. The protests interrupted Congress’s electoral college certification and, more tragically, five people are now dead in the aftermath of the chaos.

“To be clear, the brutality the American people watched with shock and disbelief will not be tolerated by the FBI,” Steven D’Auntuono, the FBI Washington Field Office ADIC said on Tuesday.

“We are up to the challenge…The FBI will leave no stone unturned in this investigation,” he added.

The FBI has opened over 160 case laws, and D’Auntuono said “that’s just the tip of the iceberg.”

The agency has received over 100,000 pieces of digital media, which D’Auntuono called “fantastic.” And as Acting US Attorney for DC Michael Sherwin noted, they’ve already charged over 70 cases.

WATCH: Analysis Concludes Antifa Provoked Shooting of Air Force Vet at Capitol

By WND. An analysis of videos of the death of Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt at the U.S. Capitol indicates Antifa activists provoked the fatal gunshot from a police officer.

Japanese investigator Misako Ganaha explained in a video interview with Epoch Times reporter Joshua Philipp on his “Crossroads” program that she analyzed two lengthy videos, affording two different angles of the incident near the House chamber. . .

Ganaha pointed out to that just prior to the shooting, two men who had been agitating the crowd broke the glass on a set of doors.

Immediately after the glass was broken, a shot was fired as Babbitt attempted to go through the doors. . .

One of the men who broke the glass can be seen going down a stairway and changing into clothing he had stored in a backback.

Ilhan Omar: The Need to Impeach Trump Is Just Like the Need to ‘Hold a Murderer’ Accountable (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) told MSNBC on Tuesday Congress must impeach and remove President Trump because he is responsible for the riot at the Capitol building that resulted in five deaths and many injuries.

Trump is facing another impeachment vote this week as Democrats in Congress say he incited the riot last Wednesday while they were in the process of certifying the Electoral College results, resulting in President-elect Joe Biden’s victory permanent.

“I know that some have likened the reaction that we are getting, obviously, from the President and some of, you know, Democrats and some Republicans in Congress, to someone saying, you know, if we were to hold a murderer or someone who has committed violence accountable, there will be more. And to me, it is really the — having consequences for actions that act as a deterrent,” Omar said.

WATCH: Chris Christie Says He’d Vote to Impeach Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

Chris Christie believes that President Donald Trump deserves to be impeached and removed from office for his actions leading up to the riot at the U.S. Capitol building last Wednesday.

While appearing on ABC’s “This Week,” Christie said Trump’s actions were an “impeachable offense,” and urged Republicans to “vote their conscience.”

When asked by host George Stephanopoulos if he had a vote in Congress if he’d impeach the president, Christie responded, “If I think it’s an impeachable offense, that’s exactly what I would do.”

“But I’m not in there,” Christie said. “If you want my opinion, that’s my opinion.”

“I think if inciting to insurrection isn’t [an impeachable offense], I don’t really know what it is,” Christie told Stephanopoulos.

WATCH: Pilot Threatens to ‘Dump’ Trump Fans in Kansas After They Start Chanting ‘USA’ on His Flight

/0 Comments/in , /by

Two days after what began as a pro-Trump protest ended up with rioting at the U.S. Capitol, one American Airlines pilot made it clear he had had his fill of Trump supporters.

The flight from Washington to Phoenix turned into a mini-Trump rally as passengers waited to leave D.C. behind, according to a video tweeted by Mindy Robinson, who lost her race for Congress in November.

“Wow. I’m on a plane full of patriots flying from DC to Phoenix and we started chanting “USA” …and the Captain came on said told us he’d drop us off in Kansas if he had to if we didn’t obey their every single rule. American Airlines is everything but America,” she tweeted, including a video of the chanting.

Protester Who Lounged at Pelosi’s Desk, GOP Lawmaker Charged Over Capitol Siege (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

The rioter who gloated as he sat at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s desk — and a West Virginia lawmaker who filmed himself storming the US Capitol — were among those arrested Friday, authorities said.

Richard Barnett — who was caught in a now-infamous viral photo lounging back in Pelosi’s chair in her private congressional office with his feet up on her desk after he and the pro-Trump mob infiltrated the building — turned himself into a local sheriff’s office in Arkansas in the morning, said Fox affiliate KNWA.

Barnett, 60, was charged with federal counts including violent entry, theft of public property, disorderly conduct and entering and remaining on restricted grounds, CNN said.

In addition to illegally entering the building and speaker’s office, Barnett allegedly stole a letter from Pelosi meant for US Rep. Bill Long (R-Mo.). . .

Meanwhile, West Virginia delegate Derrick Evans — who recorded himself inside the Capitol Rotunda on Wednesday shouting, “We’re in, baby!’’ — was federally charged with entering a restricted area, the Justice Department said.

MUST-SEE VIDEO: Trump Supporters Attempting to Stop ‘Antifa’ From Breaking Into the Capitol; New Footage Yields More Questions Regarding the Woman Shot and Killed Inside the Capitol

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By Townhall. Footage from Wednesday’s infamous pro-Trump rally, which turned into a riot, shows that not every Trump supporter was on board with the decision to trespass into the Capitol and ransack congressional offices.

“No Antifa, no Antifa,” a woman is heard shouting as protesters break their way into the Capitol. Another Trump supporter can be seen attempting to physically restrain an individual damaging the doorway leading into the building.

“Don’t break that window,” a person yells.

New Footage Yields More Questions Regarding the Woman Shot and Killed Inside the Capitol

By Townhall. Why was it so easy for demonstrators to storm the Capitol? Was the city prepared? Regardless, the fact is that while Congress was debating certifying the 2020 Electoral College results, senators and representatives had to recess and flee to safety as Trump supporters broke into the building. Guns were drawn inside the House chamber as police barricaded the door to prevent protesters from coming inside. The Senate floor was breached. Inside the building, tear gas was deployed and a rumble between police and protesters broke out in the Rotunda. Also, a woman was shot and killed. The footage is not pleasant. You can watch it here [WARNING: Graphic content].

It clearly shows a police officer shoot the woman who is trying to bust down the door, but as Ben Domenech of The Federalist noted, “This is crazy. There were other cops right behind her.

Was there an attempt at an arrest? I also understand that this is one of those situations where you could potentially be shot by police. We’ll let the investigation begin as there always is with an officer-involved shooting, but I’m sure more questions will be raised before we get any answers. Also, Twitter is not the place to debate or argue this event at all. Dan Cohen of Behind the Headlines had the clip, by the way.

WATCH: President Trump Announces Plan for ‘Smooth Transition of Power’

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump condemned supporters who stormed Capitol Hill in stronger terms on Thursday, calling for renewed bonds of patriotism during the transition of power to President-elect Joe Biden.

“This moment calls for healing and reconciliation,” Trump said. “2020 has been a challenging time for our people.” . . .

“The demonstrators who infiltrated the capitol have defiled the seat of American democracy,” Trump said. “To those who engage in the acts of violence and destruction, you do not represent our country, and to those who broke the law, you will pay.”

“America is and must always be a nation of law and order,” Trump said, adding that although “emotions are high” after the election, “tempers must be cooled.” . . .

“To all of my wonderful supporters, I know that you are disappointed, but I also want you to know that our incredible journey is only just beginning,” he concluded.

WATCH: Barstool Sports Raised $18 Million To Help Small Businesses

/0 Comments/in , /by

Barstool Sports founder and President Dave Portnoy has raised over $18 million for struggling small businesses that have continued paying employees despite financial devastation caused by crippling government lockdowns.

Nearly 80 businesses have already been supported by the Barstool Fund after Portnoy became fed up with unjust lockdowns and no relief. “I can’t believe in this country that what I consider the most basic right of them all, the right to earn a living, the right to earn a livelihood, is now being stolen,” Portnoy said. “And they’re saying that they protect us. Let us protect ourselves. You’re not protecting a family that you just destroyed.” . . .

Unlike when citizens blindly hand over tax dollars to the government monolith, Barstool Fund donors know their money will really be helping people. The countless testimonies posted on Portnoy’s Instagram are a perfect example of why private-sector support is more effective, efficient, and trustworthy than big government.
