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.

    I pray that this "fake crisis " will unravel and be seen by everyone, who really is responsible; and not take three years, but days for the truth to be revealed and the lies exposed.

    None the Jan 6 committee cares about what Pres Trump said or did, all they care about is to ensure that the pres does not get elected again. They are the modern day version of a lynch mob.

    And I think I used to admire Liz Cheney and her dad. She has turned out to be a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Her hatred towards Trump trumps her common sense.

    Interesting, the first time I have seen that timeline, and why isn't Tritter being charged for not publishing what I would consider an emmergency message.

    If they could read time, they'd realize the Jan 6th Committee is a true waste of it. On a happier note, love reading your articles. Not a waste of time. :) Thanks so much for the continual truth.

    but nothing will change … without individual state’s right of secession, there is no mechanism to limit the size or power of D.C.’s (central) democrat federal government … with vast, uncontrolled immigration sourced from global slums, it’s just a matter of time until tribalist democrat mobs control all facets of government thereby ensuring that democrats “win” all elections in future … 2022 and 2024 elections will illustrate whether USA has any future as a sovereign entity populated by free persons …

    Turns out the whole capital thing was a set up by fbi and other agencies. Revolver News has clarified that. The sham committee should be disbanded. Next year we'll get to the bottom of it....

    An anecdote - arriving in DC on the evening of Jan. 5, most of the roads around the White House and Capital were closed. There were some, on many sides, walking in the streets, but not many. Standing outside my hotel (HGI) three black man, all clad in black with vests and clubs, walking in the middle of the road loudly calling for 'justice', actually appearing intimidating even though there was security and cops all over. As they walked by, behind them was a middle aged black woman in a wheelchair. She then called to the young men in front, "Clarence, let's go home now. Noone here to listen. C'mon Clarence, time to go." And the young man, dutiful to what I assume was his mom, and the other two mean looking dudes, shrugged their shoulders, reversed direction pushing 'mom' home. The men looked mean, but they were still momma's boys.

    I am not the least bit surprised about Liz Cheney, but I will be surprised if the people in Wyoming reelect her to the Senate. She has acted shamefully since she has been in the Senate seat.

    Liz Cheney and her sidekick, Kinzinger, are living in a constant state of anger and delusion.
