Fiona Hill: "The president was trying to stage a coup"

I'm pretty sure Trump won't be jailed without evidence or due process, so get off your soapbox.
Trump was impeached without due process and for that, all those behind that illegal act of treason should be fired and hauled into court to be tried for their crimes. Leftists wickedly assume rights are a gift to citizens by the state and can be withheld by the state (those who happen to be in power at the time) as it pleases them. Democrats despise America, American institutions and values, monuments to American history, and the US Constitution.

Due-Process Rights Don’t Apply in an Impeachment Trial​

‘Traitors Get Shot’: Son Testifies Against Father in Jan. 6 Trial


WASHINGTON — When an oil-field worker named Guy Wesley Reffitt returned to Texas after taking part in the attack on the Capitol last year, his welcome home was not entirely warm.​
He bragged to his family about confronting the police outside the building and promised that the violence there was only “the beginning,” according to federal prosecutors. His 18-year-old son pushed back, accusing him of having broken the law.​
A few days later, Mr. Reffitt realized his son might be right and that the F.B.I. might in fact be on to him. In a burst of anger, he threatened his son and daughter, telling them that they would face his wrath if they sold him out to the authorities.​
On Thursday, the son, Jackson Reffitt, faced his father from the witness stand in Federal District Court in Washington, testifying against him in a remarkable tableau that captured the painful rupture in one family — and in some ways the nation — caused by the events of Jan. 6, 2021.​
“He said, ‘If you turn me in, you’re a traitor,’” Jackson Reffitt told the jury as his father watched him intently from across the courtroom and then looked down. “‘And traitors get shot.’”

. . . .

The older Mr. Reffitt, 41, is the first defendant out of more than 700 to go on trial in connection with the Capitol attack, and in the past two days the prosecution has documented how he drove to Washington with a fellow member of a Texas militia and, armed with a pistol, led a pro-Trump mob in an advance on the police outside the building. . . .​
Testimony at the trial earlier in the day was not quite as dramatic and was largely given over to the evidence that investigators had extracted from Mr. Reffitt’s electronics devices, including a 30-minute video he made of himself in the crowd outside the Capitol with a camera mounted on his helmet.​
In the video, a foul-mouthed Mr. Reffitt can be heard repeatedly urging people in the mob to storm into the building and drag the lawmakers, including Speaker Nancy Pelosi, out by their hair or ankles.
“I didn’t come here to play — I’m taking the Capitol,” he said at one point. “I just want to see Pelosi’s head hitting every stair on the way out.”

Rioters working for the FBI encouraged people to enter the Capitol but they were never arrested. Non-democrat hirelings who encouraged people to enter the Capitol have been mistreated like terrorist traitors by those democrats seeking to cover up their election fraud.

A Texas man accused of allegedly bringing a semiautomatic pistol to the January 6 attack on the Capitol, interfering with police, and then telling his children that "traitors get shot" when they wanted to turn him into authorities, was found guilty Tuesday on all charges.

The jury took less than four hours to deliberate.


In the first January 6 case to go to trial, Reffitt, a 49-year-old father of three from Wylie, Texas, was indicted by a grand jury on five counts last year for transporting a rifle and a semi-automatic handgun to Washington, D.C., and then carrying the handgun onto U.S. Capitol grounds, where he allegedly participated in the January 6, 2021 riot and impeded law enforcement officers.

He was also charged with obstruction of justice, illegally entering the Capitol complex, and obstructing Congress' counting of the 2020 Electoral College votes — a process that ultimately affirmed Joe Biden's victory over Donald Trump in the presidential election.

Reffitt, a member of the far-right militia group the Texas Three Percenters, pleaded not guilty to all five charges and tried unsuccessfully to have some of the counts thrown out.

Saying mean things is not a crime, unless the speaker is a non-democrat being charged by rabid democrat fascists intent on making examples out of non-democrats.

The leftist spin paints democrats as innocent American patriots being falsely accused of voter fraud crimes they could not possibly have committed in spite of all appearances to the contrary.

If only "saying mean things" was in the charging documents, so your comment would make any sense at all.

Leftists joke about murdering Trump and are commended by the ungodly. Non-democrats will be jailed if they joke about murdering American Marxist traitors.

Far-right attorney Sidney Powell may soon face disciplinary action—ranging from a reprimand to disbarment—for her post-election lawsuits alleging widespread election fraud, as the disciplinary committee at the State Bar of Texas filed a petition in state court alleging the lawyer committed professional misconduct through her efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

Let's hope mobs of deluded republicans do not fight tooth and nail to promote false narratives claiming republicans did not commit voter fraud in 2020.

From Mueller, She Wrote:

NEW: Sidney Powell’s PAC - which is currently under federal criminal investigation - is paying attorneys fees for some Oath Keepers charged in the attack on the Capitol. She and her pals will suck every last cent out of these cultists.
