    A president is supposed to keep and archive all documents, such as correspondence, etc., so that if there is ever any questions about anything he did, they could look it up. Trump obviously knew that much of what he did was illegal.

    It’s now hard to believe that there once was a time — before QAnon — when Republicans would strive to unite our constitutional quasi-democratic republic and defend “liberty and justice for all” … not just for a self-defined cohort of neo-Nazi neo-Aryans ruled by a dictator.

    no-willie just equated Pelosi tearing up a copy of a State of Union address to tearing up the Constitution of the United States of America. One document was a grifter’s pitch, trying to yet again sell America a bill of goods and was loaded with propaganda, and no-willie dares to equate that to tearing up the very basis of the laws of this land.

    Fascists will try to deflect and distract from the childish act of a sociopath who in a fit of pique tended to tear up documents that either displeased him, showed him in a bad light, or more importantly were requested legally by those investigating acts of a planned coup d’etat and his defense of it.

    “A day late and a dollar short” — What J6 Defendants are saying about the Latest Pardon Promises

    One of the rioters, Edward Jacob Lang, in jail now awaiting trial, said recently he felt “completely abandoned by the political hierarchy.”

    Speaking to right-wing personality Stew Peters in a jailhouse interview last month, Lang said, “Where are our leaders standing up? Our congressmen, our senators, our president? Trump, where are you?”

    “We’re rotting in jail because we stood up for what you told us to stand up for,” he added.

    Friday’s move by the Republican National Committee was to censure Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger for “persecution of ordinary citizens engaged in legitimate political discourse.”

    The January 6 rioters and insurrectionists were not engaged in “legitimate political discourse”. Any suggestion that there was a legitimate political question whether to overturn the 2020 election, and that that’s what the insurrectionists were doing, is (as even Mike Pence says) un-American. And by doing Trump’s bidding and by propagating Trump’s big lie about the election, is the RNC is participating in un-American activities.

    This is obvious to anybody who’s not in thrall to Trump. And the dwindling band of sane Republicans know this.

    Roughly 150 police officers were injured on that day. Countless are still dealing with the trauma. More than 750 of the rioters have been charged with crimes.

    All of that violence and destruction to try to upend a democratic election and the peaceful transfer of power this nation has prided itself upon since its creation.

    This, according to the Republican Party — not the fringes, the recognized leadership of the party — is now “legitimate political discourse.”

    And this is the way Trump and the RNC’s leaders want it. They call riots and insurrection “legitimate political discourse” because they think this will get them back into power. Like the Confederates of 1861, they figure that their side has the guns and the brave men and that their opponents are spineless, so they think they will win any fight they get into. How wrong the Confederates were! and how wrong Trump and his RNC cronies will be!

    GOP Rep. Matt Gaetz said he was ‘quite disappointed’ Pence wasn’t ‘motivated’ to overturn the 2020 election results

    Gaetz made the comments on Steve Bannon’s “War Room” podcast over the weekend.

    “I knew then that he was not going to show a great deal of boldness before the Congress,” said Gaetz, who is under investigation by the US Department of Justice for potential violations of sex-trafficking laws, prompting Bannon to ask if it was because Pence “didn’t understand the content of what had gone on.”

    The Republican Party has ‘stopped being a legitimate political entity’: top Missouri paper

    The editorial board of St Louis Post-Dispatch called out the Republican Party in an editorial on Sunday saying the GOP has given up any right to be considered representative of conservative voters after censuring two members on Friday afternoon.

    “When future historians seek to pinpoint exactly when it was that the Republican Party stopped being a legitimate political entity promoting a coherent set of principles and was transformed fully into a cult of personality organized around a would-be autocrat, Feb. 4, 2022, might be in contention,” they wrote before adding, “As if to further detach themselves from reality, Republicans declared that the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol insurrection constituted ‘legitimate political discourse.’”

    Calling the censure resolution “a marvel of alternate-reality thinking of the kind that former President Donald Trump is so good at,” the editors continued, “The RNC’s unprecedented sanction against both of them for that action confirms that the GOP no longer stands for anything beyond blind allegiance to the former president who fomented the violence.”

    “The leaders of the Republican Party have made themselves willing hostages to a man who admits he tried to overturn a presidential election and suggests he would pardon Jan. 6 defendants, some of whom have been charged with seditious conspiracy. I’m a constitutional conservative and I do not recognize those in my party who have abandoned the Constitution to embrace Donald Trump. History will be their judge," she stated.

    The editors tersely added, “Those words should be engraved in stone and stand as a memorial to a once-great political party that no longer exists in any recognizable form.”

    So what was Trump’s plan after seizing the voting machines?

    President Donald J. Trump directed his lawyer, Rudolph W. Giuliani, to make a remarkable call." Get that? He directed his law-poodle Giuliani to call another one of his poodles in the Department of Homeland Security and see if that department would be willing to go out there into the battleground states and seize voting machines. The Times goes on to report that he had considered and rejected having the Department of Defense do his dirty work for him, and he had previously asked his supreme law-poodle, William Barr, his attorney general, to have the Department of Justice send its agents into the field and pick up the voting machines.

    Voilà! There it was right in front of them! It was those damn voting machines! All they had to do was get their hands on those voting machines in three “key states” and … well … what was the plan, exactly?

    So there’s at least a scrap of a plan. The Powell-Flynn-Byrne team thought that it would take only seven days to get a recount done in six large counties of multiple states Trump had lost.

    The RNC has arguably engaged in fraud by labeling a violent insurrection as “legitimate political discourse.” In so doing it appears to be making a blatant attempt to cover-up—aid and abet after the fact—the January 6 sedition and insurrection. Further, the RNC can be seen as encouraging future sedition and insurrection by labeling such as “legitimate discourse.” Would this be sufficient grounds for filing an action in whatever jurisdiction where the RNC is registered or chartered—the District of Columbia? elsewhere?—seeking to have the organization dissolved for being an entity that engages in fraud and encourages sedition and insurrection against the government of the United States of America? Indeed, how can we allow such an organization that attacks our democracy to continue to operate?

    If there is a pathway for seeking the RNC’s dissolution, might it be faster and easier to seek this administrative action than to secure a criminal conviction of the principals involved in the January 6 insurrection and associated plans to overturn the election?
