Lawmaker Texted Meadows Apologizing For Failing To Steal Election

A member of Congress texted White House chief of staff Mark Meadows the day after the violent Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection lamenting that it had been a “terrible day” … because their efforts to steal the election for Donald Trump had failed, according to new texts revealed by the House Jan. 6 select committee on Monday.

Who coulda predicted, but Glenn Greenwald, professional leftist and fearless crusader for truth, justice and transparency thinks the Jan. 6 investigation is a big snooze fest that no one cares about.

Go figure.

So far I am not seeing much criminal in these texts but I am seeing the utter contempt these people have for the American voter. Winning is the only thing that matters to these power mad Republicans.

Who would have thought that “to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States” would become a radical, far-left idea?

Meadows is trying to rework that algorithm. Math however is not that mushy.

It’s great that the 1/6 Commission has quickly released these, so the public can see them, and thus pre-empting the legal challenges that will undoubtedly go on until the end of Joe Biden’s term. If only our Republican voters understood that “hypocrisy” and “lying” were bad things!!

Tommy Tuberville ?
he was & is such an ignorant simpleton that he certainly could be stupid enough to apologize in a documented way - for not succeeding in the attempt to pull off a coup

Yeah, something about Greenwald always rubbed me the wrong way, even when he seemed to be on the left. I hear he’s got a near-permanent gig on Fox now, so we can guess how his allegiances have shifted … or maybe come out of the closet.

Funny how the far left and the far right so often find common cause with each other.

Yes, think about your legacy, Laura Ingraham, Hannity, and Big Turd: race-baiting, violence, and ecological ruin. A lot to pass on to our heirs.
