Recently, there was a great opinion piece written in the guardian that mentioned the
last time America saw a real insurrection here in the United States where we actually
had the government split and try to form its own government.
That of course was during the civil war.
And we had members of Congress go along with it.
We had members of the, the population go along with it.
We all know how the civil war turned out, but afterwards there was a lack of prosecutions,
right?
We didn't hold enough people accountable.
So what did those people that didn't get held accountable, go and do they formed an organization
called the KKK and that organization of course, went on to have 150, 170 at this point years
of terror here in the United States, all because we didn't fully punish those responsible for
that very real insurrection against the United States.
And this story is told in this article for the guardian as a warning, we have very real
insurrectionists in the United States today.
And I'm not just talking about the idiots who storm the capital, right?
Those people are to a degree being charged and prosecuted.
Most of them have gotten off light.
A lot of them have gone to court and cried.
No, I was duped.
I was a fool.
I was an idiot.
Some of them have said they've admitted.
They were idiots.
And sometimes the judges let 'em off lightly.
Sometimes prosecutors don't feel like doing it and they offer 'em plea deals to go away
with just a little bit of probation.
And that is unfortunate.
These people should be held to a much stricter form of justice, but those aren't the real
insurrectionists that we should be worried about.
Folks, the ones that we need to worry about are the ones sitting in the halls of Congress.
We know for a fact, and a lot of this of course is due to the work of the January 6th select
committee that we had sitting members of the United States, Congress, who were actively
actively working with the Trump campaign and Trump administration to overthrow the results
of a free and fair election here in the United States.
Now, in my opinion, that's an insurrection just because it was a failed insurrection
doesn't mean that's not what it was.
They wanted to effectively overthrow the government of the United States.
Even if that government hadn't been instated yet.
And none of them have been held accountable.
And based on what we've seen from the select committee, it's unlikely that any of these
people are gonna be held accountable.
That's not the people they're going after.
And of course, ultimately the committee can't convict him.
It would have to come through.
Obviously the DOJ, they may go after Trump, maybe we get him all, uh, you know, arrested.
Maybe he gets prosecuted, charged all that, maybe unlikely, but maybe as for the members
of Congress who
Took part in this, the ones who were begging for pardons from Donald Trump, nothing crickets,
they're gonna go on.
Some of them have already won their primaries.
They're gonna get reelected and they're gonna continue to serve.
We will have actual traders to the United States constitution serving in Congress.
Another term after it was revealed that they were traders to the very constitution that
they took an oath to uphold.
If we do not hold them accountable, if we do not have justice in this country, then
nothing matters.
They will have succeeded with their dry run.
And God only knows what horrors hold.
You know, the future will hold in store for us.
If we do not hold these people accountable, we could be looking at a whole nother post-Civil
war, KKK type group.
Once again, except this time they'll be in Congress.
