Yeah, I mean.
People were pretty mad about this whole thing.
A new video from the deadly Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol appears to show two Texas men threatening to drag then-Vice President Mike Pence and other lawmakers through the streets.
The men, Ryan Nichols and Alex Harkrider, were arrested days later in Texas and charged with various crimes, including assault with a dangerous weapon — specifically, a crowbar, baton and pepper spray, according to the indictment against them. They each pleaded not guilty. Harkrider was released pending trial. Nichols was denied release, and both of their cases are still pending.
The Facebook Live video, which was allegedly shot by Nichols as they marched to the Capitol, was mentioned in a pre-trial motion filed by the Justice Department and released to local news outlets over the weekend.
The new footage comes on the heels of the Republican National Committee’s vote to censure Reps. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., and Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., for their participation in the House select committee investigating the insurrection. The resolution passed by the RNC attempted to reframe the events of Jan. 6 as “legitimate political discourse.”
Nichols allegedly filmed himself talking about Pence, who on Jan. 6 was presiding over the Senate as Congress set about certifying the 2020 election. Then-President Donald Trump falsely claimed Pence had the power to overturn the results. At the “Stop the Steal” rally that preceded the attack on the Capitol, Trump urged his supporters to “fight like hell” and expressed hope that Pence would “do the right thing” and send the votes back to the states for recertification.
Pence ultimately did not, and President Biden’s 306-232 victory over Trump in the Electoral College was certified hours after the rioters were cleared from the Capitol Building.
“I’m hearing reports that Pence caved,” Nichols says in the video. “I’m telling you, if Pence caved, we’re gonna drag motherf***ers through the streets.”
The outrage culture is just so nauseating.
Celebrities were on stage threatening to kill Donald Trump through his entire presidency.
But if some redneck says he’s ready to ride or die, it’s like another Holocaust.
On an unrelated note, I’ve reached the conclusion that Adam Calhoun is not a bad rapper, and even if he were, this music would be good for white people.
It’s going to soon be time to remember that we haven’t always been a bunch of sniveling faggots.
As an addendum to that: it wasn’t just low IQ whites that were not sniveling faggots.
High IQ whites used to be able to say “ride or die.”
If you can’t get into John Wayne (you must), then at least watch The Wild Bunch.
Look at yourself and imagine what your ancestors would think.
Do that every day, at least twice.
