  1. Go watch the interview with Steve Bannon in this same series, and you will have the answers. He didn't try to hide the fact they are out to collapse the judiciary.

  2. One thought I had, watching the Jan 6, 2021 capital event was…what preperation did the Capital Police have? Did DJT or the persons over the Capital Police, intentionally have them under staffed and unprepared for such a large crowd. And He said "let's go to the Capital and Fight for our country." But didn't ensight a riot.

  3. IGOT OVER #+0 JUDGES TO RECUSE BOTH FEDERl and STATE JUDGES AND THEY RAN AND I GOT A OUT OF TOWN JUDGE AND HE THREW OUT ALL #72 CHARGES. I HAD ZERO LAW SCHOOL AND NO MONEY. BUT TRUMP HAS BAD ATTORNEYS THAT CANNOT GET ANY JUDGE TO RECUSE.

  4. I, more or less, get the idea that you think President Trump lies pathologically. Seems to me you could have a better chance of convincing people if you posted the video version of the lies.
