Democrats and the media have lied, labeling President Trump an insurrectionist without evidence and without ONE single J6 protestor being charged with this crime. Yet BLM domestic terrorists who caused $2 billion in damages are protected as “mostly peaceful.” Thank you to @RepMattGaetz for introducing this sense of Congress declaring President Trump an innocent man!
Video transcript
Not one single person has been charged with insurrection. Not one single person has been convicted with insurrection. Not one, in every single court of our land, no one's been charged and convicted with insurrection, yet Democrats and dishonest people in the media every single day accuse President Trump of waging an insurrection. And accuse many of us of waging an insurrection and you're doing nothing but lying and selling the lies of the Democrats all for campaigns and elections. Shame on every single person that has done that. Shame on you. You need to tell the truth. You have the freedom of press, one of the greatest rights in this entire world. And anyone that puts the word insurrectionists calls President Trump an insurrectionist and calls any of us an insurrectionist is a liar and you do not deserve the power that you possess. Shame on you. Shame on you. Let me give you guys a little history lesson, okay? When President Trump was inaugurated, Antifa and leftist rioters nearly burned down Washington DC. Did you call it an insurrection? No. BLM raised millions of dollars on the Act Blue Democrat fundraising website and then proceeded to cost $2 billion in damages across American cities and communities all in 2020, every day. Not one day for three hours, every damn day. Did you call it an insurrection? They attacked police officers, federal courthouses, tore down statues, burned 93 police vehicles. Did you in the media call it an insurrection? No, you did not. You called it mostly peaceful and you lied to the American people and the American people don't trust you anymore because of that. And then the American people who pay for elections with their tax dollars actually own the elections and have the right, the right to care about their elections, election integrity and the results of their elections when they came to Washington and protested, all of you called it an insurrection. And then when Joe Biden was inaugurated and this entire Capitol complex was surrounded with 30,000 National Guard troops, none of you stood there and called that an insurrection. Oh no, you all stayed silent. And while Matthew Graves, the US Attorney at the Department of Justice is arresting people every single day, throwing them in jail, held them for 22 hours in solitary confinement, unconvicted, all of you stay silent. No one attacks them for that. Apparently you think it's deserved. Shame on you. And I want you to know the American people are paying attention. They're not stupid just because you tell them in your articles and in your headlines and on your networks that Trump is an insurrectionist or any of us are insurrectionists. No, as a matter of fact, you're hurting your own careers and you're hurting your industry for lying to them. So I would like to thank you, Matt, very much. And I would like to thank Elise Stefanik for introducing this resolution and I cannot believe we even have to do this because Democrats and liars in the media accuse President Trump of being an insurrectionist when in fact he is not. He said, go in peace, go in peace. God bless President Trump. God bless him for saying we should care about our elections. And I want you to know because of that, Americans do care about our elections and we have every single right to care. Thank you very much. I urge my colleagues to vote for this resolution.
