Despite the Trump administration’s efforts to memory-hole Jan. 6, thousands of videos from the riot live on ProPublica’s website and other places.

Additionally, much of the deleted DOJ database can be found on the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine.

Five Years After January 6th, Our Oath Still Matters:

Friends and Fellow Veterans,

Today marks five years since January 6, 2021—a day that tested our democracy and challenged the principles many of us swore an oath to defend.

I’m running for Congress in NY-12, my home.

We have a demented, criminal president running the country like a mob operation—government by the boss, for the boss.

We need Democratic fighters who will defend the rule of law and deliver government by the people. Join us.

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

We cannot become numb to the outrage of this. The wife of the President’s Senior Advisor threatens a sovereign nation.

We are a country whose Constitution, according to the Supreme Court, gives our own presidents immunity for crimes committed while in office, but we will prosecute presidents of other countries for alleged crimes and invade them to execute arrest warrants.

Just like Bush, Trump seems to be starting an illegal regime change war with no plan for what happens next while simultaneously underfunding and understaffing the VA. How the GOP have been branded as the party of the military and veterans is the biggest con job of our lifetimes.

You don’t just grab the leader of a nation twice the size of Texas and declare victory. Have we learned nothing in the last 25 years? How does any of this improve the lives of Americans? Congress must act immediately! Do your jobs! @wellmanformo.bsky.social #teamwellman #venezuela #missouri #mo2

Moulton: "The parallels with Iraq are unmistakeable. Bush said there was WMD in Iraq. Turns out that was a lie. Trump just made up fentanyl being WMD, which doesn't even come from Venezuela, just to justify this war. We said this wasn't about regime change, but it is."

The Republican Congress has chosen to give away its authority and power and now we are being told Trump plans to occupy Venezuela. We don't cry for Maduro. We demand the following of our laws and Constitution. He is already threatening Mexico and Cuba will be next. Ann Wagner is silent.

Donald Trump says he’ll now run Venezuela.

He’s focusing his time and your taxpayer dollars on nation-building and foreign wars.

Meanwhile, he refuses to spend a penny on your health care or making life more affordable for you.

1/ After decades of failed conflicts, trillions of taxpayer dollars spent, and thousands of lives lost, Americans are struggling to get by and are exhausted by endless wars.

It’s true that Maduro is a brutal dictator. It’s also true that not every problem is ours to fix. But now this one is.

Veterans For Responsible Leadership Statement on Situation in Venezuela:

Veterans understand something many in power too often forget:
the use of military force is not a personal decision—it is a constitutional responsibility.

Half way through the Jack Smith transcript and it’s become abundantly clear why Jim Jordan didn’t want public testimony. Jordan spends a lot of time whining about the toll subpoenas, and Jack Smith shuts him down every time.
