Every one of these guys has the cover of the organization that funds and placed them.

Invoking the Fifth Amendment just once doesn’t tell us much; invoking it in response to every question (except “what is your name?”) says a lot more. It would be nice to know how many times each of these clowns refused to answer a question.

… Donald Trump, who once said that only “the mob” pleads the Fifth, then proceeded to do so himself 400 times during a single deposition back in August.

“My actions are ENTIRELY consistent with my statement.”

The Confederacy?

Um, the opposite. You invoke the 5th once, you’re communicating what specific topic you’re concerned about. You spew “5th” non-stop from the outset, you’re giving up no specificity.

So I did some cross referencing, and five of the fifthers are alternafraud electors, who quite literally signed their names to slates of fake electoral votes sent in to congress with the idea that Pence would promote them over the real slates of electors:

Kathy Berden, MI chair
James DeGraffenreid, NV Secretary
Michael J. McDonald, NV Chairperson
Mayra Rodriguez, MI Secretary
Dr Kelli Ward, AZ Chemtrails Expert

We now know a cabal of traitors exceeds 30 individuals. Not-so-oddly enough Qanon refers to “The Cabal” in their conspiracy memes.

It’s always projection on the right.

The perfect storm of Justice for Alex Jones.

Makes me smile. Actually, I’m laughing.

Yesterday, he was berating his own fans/listeners for not “supporting him enough.”

They were his last friends. And this is how he treats them…

And January 6 proved that Trump was right, as leader of the MOB.
