GOP increasingly balks at calling Jan. 6 an insurrection
By Cristina Marcos - 06/19/21 06:00 AM EDT

A growing number of Republican lawmakers are refusing to say that the Jan. 6 insurrection was actually an insurrection.

Nearly two dozen GOP House members voted against legislation this week that would award Congressional Gold Medals to police officers who defended the Capitol that day, in part because it describes the mob of then-President Trump’s supporters who were trying to stop Congress from ratifying the 2020 election results as “insurrectionists.”

“They were protesting. And I don’t approve of the way they protested, but it wasn’t an insurrection,” said Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.).

“My goodness. Can you imagine what a real insurrection would look like?” he asked.

Democrats have been manipulating and governing by invented crisis for quite a while now.  Too bad soo many dullards are so slow to catch on to the obvious, it lets amoral democrats to run wild and free with endangering the Republic.

@skeeter

What makes me nervous is it took so long for the lights to start to brighten with these cretins.

THE LEFT IS OPENLY ATTACKING AMERICA IN ORDER TO ENSLAVE US!

It ain't like this is a secret any more,

They are finally figuring it out ?

An insurrection is when people show up to do something.

If this had been an insurrection, there would have been plenty of guns & grenades involved.

@HikerGuy83

Are you trying to claim the left hasn't been "showing up and doing something"?

That's not what I heard @HikerGuy83 say....
