    The same Josh Hawley who tried to overturn the 2020 election? The same who egged on insurrectionists outside the capitol on Jan 6th?

    I just want to make sure we are talking about the same Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley here, so there’s absolutely no confusion.

        Like the 9 Oathkeepers that were convicted of seditious conspiracy, which is defined in Title 18 as:

        If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both

        ?

          Still not an “insurrection”.

          Democrats love altering definitions to fit their warped reality. It’s propaganda 101.

            That is literally the definition of an insurrection, genius. That is what you get charged with when you’re a part of an insurrection. Treason is a completely different thing, if that’s what your brain cell is struggling to get out.

            Do you dress up in a uniform mommy gave you when play word police? Or is just like a mental thing?

          Is it though? Unlike Reddit, karma here has exactly zero value. They stand to gain nothing by making themselves out to be an idiot.

            You think karma matters to trolls? How long have you been around the internet?

        We saw the videos. We know you are lying to conceal the election interference.

        You’re right, he wasn’t charged with insurrection. Among the four charges related to the January 6 events is conspiracy against rights, which is pretty much a stand-in for insurrection. His entire scheme to defraud US voters by setting up false slates of electors in swing states relied on Pence to halt the vote count and in so doing arrest the peaceful transfer of power. While people were breaking windows and dying, Trump, against the behest if multiple staff members refused to call in the national guard until the last minute. Why? Because he was on the phone the whole time trying to convince Pence to follow through with the scheme they had concocted. Fortunately Pence saw the light and understood the consequences. But thanks for your “akshually not charged with insurrection” profound perspective.
