Trump & Allies Sued for Capital Riots
Trump is being sued for Incitement of Riots on January 6, 2021 by the ALCU, 10 Democratic members of congress and Numerous Capital Police Officers
Legal pressure on citizen Trump is escalating as two Capitol Hill police officers are now suing the former president, alleging he incited the January 6 insurrection. This is the third civil lawsuit of its kind. Meanwhile in New York, the D.A. has subpoenaed the Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg’s personal bank records. MSNBC’s Chief Legal Correspondent Ari Melber explains the latest updates in the cases, plus reports on the new defamation suit against the former president and a court’s decision to void the Trump campaign’s NDAs.
Seven U.S. Capitol Police officers sued former president Donald Trump and more than a dozen alleged participants in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, saying the defendants are responsible for the officers being “violently assaulted, spat on, tear-gassed, bear-sprayed, subjected to racial slurs and epithets, and put in fear for their lives.”
The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Washington, alleges that Trump, by falsely claiming the presidential election was rigged, incited a mob of his supporters to storm the Capitol in an effort to stop Congress from confirming President Biden’s victory.
The complaint describes an array of abuse endured by the seven officers, who collectively “have dedicated more than 150 years” to protecting Congress “so that it can carry out its constitutional responsibilities safely and openly.”
The lawsuit lists the officers as Conrad Smith, Danny McElroy, Byron Evans, Governor Latson, Melissa Marshall, Michael Fortune and Jason DeRoche. In addition to alleging civil rights violations under Ku Klux Klan Act, the complaint includes civil counts of battery and assault against the officers, several of whom are Black.
For several hours, “while inhaling a smog of chemical pollutants and sustaining burns from those chemicals,” according to the lawsuit, Fortune “helped clear the Capitol of remaining attackers, search for any hidden improvised explosive devices, and carry injured officers to a triage center for medical treatment.”
The lawsuits does not seek a specific monetary award but asks for compensatory and punitive damages “in an amount to be determined by the jury at trust.”
Two Capitol police officers have filed lawsuits against former President Trump for injuries during the January 6th mob riot. Both officers claim they were emotionally and physically injured during the riot.
NAACP files lawsuit against Trump over role in Capitol riot

Trump Loses In Court: Judge Strikes Down Campaign Non-disclosure agreements
Attorney David Bowles joins Lawrence O’Donnell to discuss the class action lawsuit to “unwind” the Trump campaign NDAs, which a judge ruled are invalid and “harmful to the public.”
Attorney Bowles discusses how Trump used “boilerplate” NDAs from his business which were so badly written & non-specific that a judge stated “you could drive a mack truck through them”.
It’s therefore possible every NDA signed by people hired in his administration are invalid.
No Title
No Description
Per the above article, “Ten more Democratic members of Congress on Wednesday joined a federal lawsuit accusing former President Donald Trump, his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani and several right-wing extremist groups of conspiring to incite the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol complex riot.
The suit, first filed by Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., and the NAACP, accuses the defendants of violating a federal law by sparking the violence with the goal of preventing Congress from confirming the election of President Joe Biden. The cited law, the Ku Klux Klan Act, was first used in the late 1800s to target the racist KKK for its violence against Black Americans and its intimidation of members of Congress from the South.
In addition to Trump and Giuliani, the suit names extremist groups the Oath Keepers, the Proud Boys, and Warboys as defendants.
The House members who joined the suit are: California representatives Karen Bass, Barbara Lee and Maxine Waters; Steve Cohen of Tennessee; Bonnie Watson Coleman of New Jersey; Veronica Escobar of Texas; Hank Johnson Jr. of Georgia; Marcy Kaptur of Ohio; Jerry Nadler of New York; and Pramila Jayapal of Washington state.
An amended version of the lawsuit adding the new House members as plaintiffs, and making additional allegations, was filed in U.S. District Court in Washington D.C. It seeks a declaratory judgment that the defendants violated the law through their conduct, an injunction against similar actions in the future and unspecified financial damages”.

Rep Andrew Clyde: LIAR for Denying Riot by Trump Supporters
Representative Andrew Clyde & Republicans who are claiming Riots & Insurrection didn’t happen on January 6, 2021 are LIARS unfit for office, putting their political careers above telling the TRUTH.
This type of Truth Denial, Gaslighting and Propaganda by Republicans is one of the many reasons they need to be VOTED OUT.
The Rep. Clyde news reminded me of this:

“I believe that Congressman Clyde on January 6th would disagree with the Congressman Clyde of today. And it’s very clear that you have this massive brainwashing within the Republican Party,” says Rep. Ted Lieu on Rep. Clyde downplaying the Capitol insurrection.
Rep. Andrew Clyde shows what a disgusting piece of SHIT he is be refusing to shake hands with Officer Michael Fanone who was beaten in Jan. 6 Attack as a result of the LIES told by TRUMP and REPUBLICANS. This type of conduct is exhibited exclusively by SCUM-OF-THE-EARTH REPUBLICANS

In a new conspiracy indictment the prosecutors reveal that the defendants who planed and executed the attack on the Capitol themselves called it “an insurrections. Rep. Clyde would issue a retraction to the American people, as it appears he is the one who offered bad-faced lies.

Constitutional law professor Laurence Tribe joins Lawrence O’Donnell to discuss the ongoing DOJ investigations into January 6th and why he believes “executive privilege won’t be available” to Donald Trump in many of the cases.
I think Mo Brooks exemplifies what the Republican Party has become… a Lawless party of Liars, Lunatics, Alternative Reality Gaslighters, Corporate Whores, Hypocrites, Bigots, Racists, Homophobes, Science Deniers, Facts Deniers, Conspiracy Nuts, Kooks, Bullies, Redneck Hicks, Gun Nuts, Domestic Terrorists, White Supremacist, Neo Nazis, Dumb-asses, Lowlifes, Neanderthals, Anti-intellectual “Know Nothings”, Anti-Democratic Fascists and Tyrannical Authoritarians.
Like the above title says… “This is Treason!” and the fact the all involved in inciting riots with their speeches such as Trump, Giuliani, Brooks, Ted Cruz and others haven’t already been arrested shows what a POS “Justice System” we have in this country… one for the rich and politically well connected, and other for everyone else.
Mo Brooks stated that he makes no apologies for his “taking down names and kicking ass” speech… I make no apologies for stating what a disgusting Piece of Shit I think he and most Republicans are.
I’m thrilled that Rep. Eric Swalwell is suing this piece of shit and others over the Capitol riot. All who helped instigate the DC riot and participated should be arrested, held financially accountable and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Coward Mo Brooks Hiding to Evade Being Served Lawsuit
Mo Brooks sounded like a Southern-Fried Macho Bad Ass with his speech telling dumb-ass Trump Supporting Republicans to “Take down names and kick ass!” After lawsuits were filed to hold him accountable for his part in instigating the DC Riots, Mo Brooks has proved what a Alligator Mouth, Puppy Dog Ass Sniveling Coward he is by hiding to evade being served Rep. Eric Swalwell’s lawsuit.
This is typical of Republican Bullies… talking like a BIG MAN TUFF GUY, getting other people to do their dirty work, then refusing to take responsibility for the damage they caused.
Most of these Alligator Mouth, Puppy Dog Ass Republicans couldn’t fight their way out of a paper bag.

Trump Supporting MAGA Rioters Arrested & Sentenced!
Authorities released images from inside the government building, asking the public for help in identifying the pro-Trump supporters involved in the rampage
Title per YouTube; “The FBI and the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia are working to identify, arrest and charge the thousands of individuals who attacked the US Capitol”.
Description from YouTube; “These individuals are domestic terrorists, plain and simple. Yet the Acting Attorney General, Jeffrey Rosen, who never worked as a prosecutor but DID work under Elaine Chao at the Department of Transportation (hardly the kind of experience that prepares one to be the nation’s top law enforcement official), made a 3-minute-long video about the insurrection in which he called the rioters “wrongdoers”, “offenders” and “violators” in a transparent attempt to downplay the severity of their criminal conduct. The Acting US Attorney for the DC, Michale Sherwin, also made alarming statements during a press conference. When asked if the attack on the Capitol qualified as domestic terrorism, he said, “I reject the tyranny of labels.”
Here is a review of who Jeffery Rosen and Michael Sherwin are and why America can celebrate the fact that, in just one week, these individuals will no longer have leadership positions in our federal government”.

Fmr. Sen. Corker Says Cruz & Hawley played a Destructive Role
Title from YouTube: “Ted Cruz leads new seditious “emergency audit” Coup”
Description from YouTube: “This is putting a match to the Constitution. Senator Ted Cruz has now led a cabal of eleven Republican Senators and Senators-Elect claiming voter fraud and demanding a “10-day emergency audit of the voting results in the disputed states.”
There is are no claims of voter fraud – not even in Trump’s 50 failed lawsuits. There are no disputed states. There is no such thing as an “emergency audit.” There is only an attempted Trump coup.
And the pretext of relieving doubt in the election is the ultimate insult. Cruz and the other fascists are the ones who sowed this doubt. What they have done – and what they are now doing – violates Federal Statutes against advocating the overthrow of the government. They must be charged accordingly.
As Ulysses S. Grant once said: “there are but two parties now: traitors and patriots.”
Sen. Josh Hawley to force vote on Electoral College results
Missouri Republican Sen. Josh Hawley said he will object when Congress counts the Electoral College votes next week, which will force lawmakers in both the House and Senate to vote on whether to accept the results of President-elect Joe Biden’s victory.
Hawley is the first senator to announce plans to object to the results, which is significant because both a House member and senator are required to mount an objection when Congress counts the Electoral College votes on January 6.
The objection will not change the outcome of the election, only delaying the inevitable affirmation of Biden’s victory in November over President Donald Trump. Democrats will reject any objections in the House, and multiple Republican senators have argued against an objection that will provide a platform for Trump’s baseless conspiracy theories claiming the election was stolen from him.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has privately urged Senate Republicans not to join the group of House members who are planning to object. Senate Majority Whip John Thune argued against it publicly, prompting a rebuke from Trump on Twitter and the threat of a primary challenge.
Trump has been pushing for Congress to try to overturn the election result as his campaign’s attempts to overturn the election through the courts have been repeatedly rejected.
