The worst human beings ironically end up being the "best" people to work under Trump.
Friendly reminder that Trump is a child rapist and is purposely withholding the Trumpstein files from the public.
Trumpenstein!
Riot? Insurrection, coup?

This asshole also has a huge painting of a nazi battleship in his office.
Can’t stand Wehraboos
Can't stand nazis.
He'll fit right in with the administration, honestly. He probably already has a friend over in the Justice Department. Former FBI agent, Jared Wise, who was pardoned mid-trial for his crimes on Jan-6 is now a senior advisor over there. I bet there's a bunch of Jan-6ers working all over this administration.
"You guys are disgusting," Wise told the officers, as captured in the bodycam footage. "I'm former law enforcement. You're disgusting. You are the Nazi. You are the Gestapo."
Wise had served at the FBI from 2004 to 2017, where he worked on international counterterrorism and eventually became a supervisory special agent. By Jan. 6, 2021, according to later testimony, he was working as a consultant in Bend, Ore., and he traveled to Washington, D.C., to support Trump.
As he stood in front of the police line, he continued to berate the officers.
"Shame on you," he yelled. "Shame on you. Shame on you."
Violence erupted again, as rioters pushed against officers, knocking one to the ground, according to prosecutors.
"Kill 'em! Kill 'em!" Wise yelled, as he watched the skirmish. "Get 'em! Get 'em!"
A damn sight more than “mildly” tbh
All republicans are traitor filth.
I find it fascinating how people still manage to be shocked or surprised after what we've seen already. What do they expect? How can they expect anything better than this?
It's more about making social commentary than anything. It's entertainment. /S
If we stop acting shocked and like these things are wrong then they become normalized.
Something being normal doesn't mean it's good nor does it mean it can't be fought. Normal is nothing more than a statistical term.

But did he throw a sammich ?
This dude looks like he keeps a bag of dead doves he plans to return to the pet store in his fridge.
Well, what did you expect?
As just another criminal, he fits that government perfectly. Someone who attended the Jan 6 insurgence sure is a perfect bootlicker for the felon in the White House.
J6–the ultimate triumph of mediocre white folk!!!
Alot of very fine people there 🫲🍊🫱
Everyone deserves a second chance!
*white male Republican
… ?
They don't give anyone else second chances.
Like I get that there's no shortage of just plain stupid and amoral people. It's the almost universal capitulation when it is easy not to, that is driving me insane.
Isn’t that a family picture of the whole DJT cabinet?
