Joe,
"What a stinking pile. But even the worst smells go away eventually." Very true. http://www.history.com/news/6-violent-uprisings-in-the-united-states#:~:text=6%20Violent%20Uprisings%20in%20the%20United%20States.%201,Riots.%205%205.%20Battle%20of%20Athens.%20More%20items Wilmington Insurrection of 1898 On the morning of November 10, 1898, a throng of some 2,000 armed white men took to the streets of the Southern port town of Wilmington, North Carolina. Spurred on by white supremacist politicians and businessmen, the mob burned the offices of a prominent African-American newspaper, sparking a frenzy of urban warfare that saw dozens of blacks gunned down in the streets. As the chaos unfolded, white rioters descended on City Hall and forced the town’s mayor to resign along with several black aldermen. By nightfall, the mob had seized full control of the local government, some 60 black citizens lay dead and thousands more had fled the city in panic. While it took the form of a race riot, the Wilmington uprising was actually a calculated rebellion by a cabal of white business leaders and Democratic politicians intent on dissolving the city’s biracial, majority-Republican government. Once in power, the conspirators banished prominent black leaders and their white allies from the city and joined with other North Carolina Democrats in instituting a wave of Jim Crow laws suppressing black voting rights. Despite its illegality, state and federal officials ultimately allowed the power grab to proceed unchecked, leading many historians to cite the Wilmington insurrection as the only successful coup d’etat in American history. Makes the recent so-called Insurrection at the Capitol look rather small. Posted by Is Mise, Thursday, 21 January 2021 9:08:56 AM

Hi Joe,
Irony, Trump came into office claiming he was going to "Drain the Swamp!", the fact is he created a bigger, dirtier, TRUMP SWAMP. populated by criminals, shonks, retards, and suck-holes. Joe Biden is like the can of Pine-O-Clean in the toilet, after Uncle Fred's been in there for 30 minutes, getting rid of last nights chicken curry.

Paul1405,
In his farewell speech Trump alluded to running for the presidency at the next election in one form or other I think was his expression. So looks like we haven't seen the last of him unless the Senate finds him guilty and bans him from running. My advice is for the Rep senators to join the Dem senators to find him guilty because if they don't I think it will come back to bite them on the bum at the next election. If he doesn;t get the Rep nominee he will probably run as an independent and drawing votes away from the Rep nominee making the Dem nominee unbeatable. So come on Reps this is your chance to squash Clown Trump and wash him down the sewer. Posted by Mr Opinion, Thursday, 21 January 2021 10:04:04 AM

Opinion,
"My advice is for the Rep senators to join the Dem senators to find him guilty because if they don't I think it will come back to bite them on the bum at the next election" Very moral and ethical advice too. Posted by Is Mise, Thursday, 21 January 2021 10:34:06 AM

The Great Reset is merely that latest installment in a 50 year-old plan to eradicate private property and dominate the entire planet by the end of the twenty first century.
Global, unelected special interests want people to blindly accept every aspect of their lives being controlled by a system known as technocracy. Neo feudalism will be the eventual result. People will be serfs similar to those lowest of the low during the Middle Ages, who couldn't do anything without the permission of their liege. The China virus chaos and the willingness of the hoi polloi to be frightened into submission and give up freedoms, and the climate change scam, will be used over time to teach people what is "best" for them. In an interview with Henry Kissinger in 2017, the star of the Great Reset as this new 'road to serfdom', is called, Klaus Schwab, gushed about a speech of Communist dictator for life, Xi Jinping, which put forward a concept of international order in the economic field. Xi! Communist China! It doesn't get worse than that. What these creatures envisage is nothing less than a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. Most of us won't be here by the end of the century, but those who will be are clearly being schooled for their roles as serfs and slaves. There will be no Donald Trumps to stand up to the fiends.

I don't know what is.
Criminals, mates, funders, suck-holes - pardon the lot.
But it seems, Trump can't pardon himself for matters involving State or municipal law. Incitement to riot may not be treason - a federal offence - but surely it's a crime against public order, and therefore chargeable. Not to mention six people dead.
What a stinking pile. But even the worst smells go away eventually.
Joe
