Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ) made a shocking accusation against some of her GOP colleagues late Tuesday night in wake of the pro-Trump insurrection at the Capitol last week.
Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Mo Brooks (R-AL) and Paul A. Gosar (R-AZ) are the boys mentioned. This from a GOPâer that plotted the attack.
Its behind a paywall but here the take home line:
âWe four schemed up of putting maximum pressure on Congress while they were voting,â â[We hoped to] change the hearts and the minds of Republicans who were in that body, hearing our loud roar from outside.â
Ali is a hard core Trumper and planned the attack with these GOPâers from the inside.
The FBI is going to be way busier than they ever imagined. Love to see some of the camera footage of the tours of the Capitol the day before matching up faces with the insurrectionists on the 6th.
They have video from inside the Capitol on that day.
Weâll see.
However, she actually is not the first to say that the rioters had inside help. Jim Cylburn gave that information to us earlier.
One of the terrorists had Cruzâs personal contact info on a piece of paper in his truck.
Well, there are a great number of cameras in the building. If somebody wants to work with the Capitol Police (like Rep. Sherrill) to identify the Representatives that conducted âwalkthroughsâ, I would imagine that using facial recognition (or just by simple observance) people that participated in the riot should show up on the video. Then, the Representative that had groups coming through the Capitol, should be looked at.
As every one of us thinks of at least one GOP Rep that we hope they find giving one of those tours.
Earlier reporting said the invaders knew the buildingâs layout far in excess of what a layman would know, hinting that advanced planning was done and various loci were so identified ahead of time. Hopefully she has the evidence, because this statement is politically explosive.
Watching the videos of this insurrection, most of it filmed by the sick insurrectionists themselves, confirms that trained rioters were in the vanguard. These were not amateurs bused in from trailer parks across the country. The vanguard directed the assault; they came equipped; they had purposeâthis was not a spontaneous eruption of outrage and devotion to their Dear Leader. Nothing less than decapitating the legislative branch was their objective. If they could have hung Pence as they had chanted, they would have been even happier, because that was the order Trump not-so-subtly gave them.
When that post appeared here Saturday I made the comment that it looked to me like some of the terrorists were on a guided tour. well, well, wellâŚ
Gosarâs family seems to recognize his issues. AZ voters not so much.
Irresponsible for her to say that unlwss she has proof. Last I checked, its legal to protest.
Too much like work for Steve Chabot. An ex-wrestling coach not wearing a jacket would be a candidate for a walk-through.
made a shocking accusation against some of her GOP colleagues
Shocking?
nothing would surprise me when a member of the gop is involved. There is no bottom of the barrel when it comes to these chameleons
I hope they seek them out, stand them up and hold them accountable to the fullest extent of the law.

Read this and just cringe. AOC and some of her colleagues when shown where they were to shelter realized theyâd be in a room with people that she thought would expose her location. She left but canât say what happened other than having a bad encounter.
Working across the aisle may truly be a relic.
A loud roar from outside? Pity they had no access to Parler to find out that other? people were planning to do more.
Not quite. He had Cruzâs office phone numbers on a piece of paper. One can look those up. He didnât have Cruzâs personal phone numbers. That would be a different kettle of fish, to be sure.
