Another fabricated January 6 claim unravels:

Another day, another fabricated Democrat claim about the “Great Insurrection” unravels in public like a cheap suit.

Rep. Liz Cheney claimed that once the violence in the Capitol started, President Trump waited 187 minutes, or over three hours, before saying anything about it. She railed that he “refused to act when action by our president was required, indeed essential, and compelled by his oath to our Constitution.” She called this long delay a “supreme dereliction of duty.”

There’s also another, more accurate, term for it: “fictitious.”

The Federalist compared the timeline of the Capitol violence to the timestamps on Trump’s tweets. The first building was breached around 2:13 to 2:15 p.m. At 2:38 p.m., Trump tweeted, “Please support our Capitol Police and Law Enforcement. They are truly on the side of our Country. Stay peaceful!”

About 30 minutes later, he tweeted, “I am asking for everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence! Remember, WE are the Party of Law & Order — respect the Law and our great men and women in Blue. Thank you!”

At 4:17, he posted a video urging the rioters to go home, which Twitter promptly suppressed because “TRUUUUUUMP!!!”

Cheney’s office did not respond to the Federalist's inquiries about where she got that 187-minute figure. I’m guessing it came from Adam Schiff, who got it off his Rotten Apple watch.

    Well… it’s been over a year since the Biden administration has taken office and they’ve done absolutely nothing regarding the border crisis!

    The true Coup is happening now under the Dem leadership. The stealing of the 2020 election is abut one facet of their agenda actions. The fiscal collapse coming, the pandemic on false data, immorality, race baiting, culture cancel, the list is long.
    The True Coup is called the 'Great Reset'.

    I am so sick of the double standard in our government. How did this come about? The Dems get away with everything, but the Republicans are accused and vilified for acts they did not even commit. When will the American people wake and see what is happening with our country?

    I watched the Western Journal movie "Capitol Punishment" and it is apparent that the whole thing was a setup there were no weapons, so how can they say it was an "Insurection" From what I saw the capitol police guided the people into the capitol. The cop that shot Ashely Babbit should be punished for the deed. If she were black it would be a different story. Sorry for sounding racist but the way the Democrats and the media react to things I can't help to think differently. I firmly beleive that is what they want us to think. That way it keeps everyone devided, that way there won't be any united front against them and their so called "Democracy"
    Let's hope the mid term elections we can weed out these socialist idiots! But that will depend on how legal the elections are. God help us if they aren't. I pass along all your weekly messages
    in hopes that they will open some eyes as to what is actually going on, Keep up your good work, "God bless you"

    the entire thing is just another Nancy Pelosi stunt to discredit Pres. Trump Because of her hatred for him . She chose the people for her team of investigators, Those who follow her & hate Pres. Trump were chosen. This is the what -4th or 5th time she & The Democrat's Have tried to bury Pres. Trump , because he isn't a part of the Congressional club. He can't be bought & most of all HE LOVES AMERICA

    If the Capitol Police signal you to come inside the doors, do they become complicit with the other Terrorists in red Maga hats? I saw the video. that's why I believe they were in on the FBI set-up Plan. The Socialists, led by their leader, Pelosi, have weaponized every agency in our buraucracy, including USPS, EPA, IRS, SSA, etc. Police and Military are used to taking orders and following the plan. We have all been deceived!

    Shame on you, Mike Huckabee! I'm so disappointed in the stand you have taken on courageous Liz Cheney who had the courage to say about the Emperor's New Clothes, "But he isn't wearing anything!" Christians and Republicans are to stand up for the truth. Last January 6th was a terrible assault on our Constitutution and Republic. It was an obvious blatant lie to say that the Capitol invaders were "BLM", "Antifa" and/or FBI -- some of the outrageous stories told with straight faces. "Thou shalt not bear false witness." Liz Cheney has stood for the truth and I for one applaud her!
