Terrorist Welfare - Trump gives YOUR Tax $$$ to J6 Terrorists

Whatever. It might be a sweetheart deal, but it's a one-off. Your thread title uses the plural like there is a program to distribute reparations to J6ers or something (which, sadly, would be totally credible with this administration). This settlement doesn't imply anything about the insurrection. This is well short of Trump promising to pardon J6ers, and then being elected despite or because of that promise, and then going through with it. A $5 million settlement in one case is nothing compared to that. Its nothing compared to our decision to elect Trump despite him inciting the J6 riot and trying to steal the election at the certification. Our problems are so much bigger than this settlement that it hardly deserves a mention.

 

So basically, it is a continuation of encouraging bad behavior
Monetary gain et al

Cmon man. This got settled because of who is currently in charge and nothing more. If this was a Harris admin, the suit would go forward and the Babbit family wouldn't get s***.

 

I won't consider justice served until Michael Byrd is charged and tried for Babbitt's murder. Venue would have to be moved due to the proven bias of the DC jury pool.

Byrd was a historical underperformer and should have been fired in 2019 for leaving his loaded gun in the bathroom at the Capitol Visitors Center. Probably a case of black privilege. So this guy was already a problem. Then he panicked and overreacted on J6 and murdered a peaceful Air Force veteran.

 

Just call him the N-word and be done with it

She was a 5’2 and 110 pound woman.

You’re pathetic if you would have shot her.

Just like the idiot cop was.

Thousands of LEO interactions with rioters that day, some actually violent, and this moron is the only one to start blasting.

 

I'm not saying otherwise. I'm saying it isn't accompanied by any meta-meaning. Government does not say her death was wrongful in the settlement. I'm sure they were more inclined to settle because Trump is president. It'd potentially be bad optics for him in Magaland if he calls her a hero and then turns around and fights her suit to the end. If they did want to lend some comfort to terrorists, they could have paid the $30 million the suit was asking for, but they negotiated it down to $5 million. And, if Harris was president, the optics would put pressure the other way. I'm not saying it isn't political. I'm saying its not important. Or it's only important as a footnote to the more important event -- voters deciding that trying to overturn an election wasn't disqualifying.

I thought this thread would be about Trump going through with the compensation fund he floated a couple months ago: Trump floats possibility of compensation for Jan. 6 rioters - POLITICO. When he does that, aside from the money (and who cares about that when we're trillions in debt, amirite), it will be the government officially saying that not only should they be forgiven their crimes (as he did with the pardons) but that we did them wrong. This settlement doesn't do that. But the compensation fund will do that.

 

Who promised him this money? When? How is he a terrorist (his J6 crime consisted of climbing through a window, and that is all, not attacking police, not hurting anyone, not even property damage)? You should be outraged that a man was preying on minors. Instead, you are outraged that a guy who climbed through a window into the capitol claimed that he was going to receive money that there is no evidence he was ever going to get. Your priorities are a bit jumbled.

 

It's actually 1.7 billion. Largest theft in modern history



All those hacks who obsessed about hunter Biden @Os Trigonum @Space Ghost will go down in history as the most disingenuous morons in history. Complete low life losers

While working class Americans are struggling to make ends meet chasing the American dream Trump reward his allies and convicted felons by making them millionaires lol.

ND his dumbass cult @Salvy eats it up like the sheep they are

 

giving tax $ to terrorists !

 

**** off where is that energy for the people shot by Ice?

DD

 

Also there is no way to keep Trump from just giving as much of this as he wants to his kids or one of his fake “foundations”. Or really himself for that matter. Trump gets to pick who is on this board that approves the funds.

Just insane levels of corruption.

 

Just a reminder why the January 6 peaceful protest was organized.... and soon we'll learn more about how the feds and far left Dems plotted and agitated the violence... stealing an election is not something we can just accept, amigos!



GOOD DAY
