Dominion Voting Systems on Friday filed a defamation lawsuit against lawyer Sidney Powell, demanding more than $1.3 billion in damages for havoc it says Powell has caused by spreading “wild” and “demonstrably false” allegations, including that Dominion played a central role in a fantastical scheme to steal the 2020 election from President Trump.

Sorry but if you think this is more about what liberals have said than Trump you are living in a fiction.

I think they stuck a fork in him after his DC speech.

A lot of the people who stormed the Capitol appear to be people that aren't of the highest intelligence, and are probably susceptible to being misled. What does holding them accountable look like?

Here's an extreme example: If I convince a mentally retarded person to kill someone, is it my fault or theirs? How does the blame work in that situation.

I think there is a place to blame both the individuals who participated and the public figures who misled and incited them. Legal precedent would agree with that, since you can be charged with inciting someone to commit a crime.

We are talking about two different things. I was referencing the girl who got shot. There were plenty of people that stormed the Capitol that didnt get shot. Though that action was stupid enough, she took further steps to get herself shot. that is no one's fault but her own.

I doubt he thinks so. And an alarming number of people would vote for him, too, just given his last name.

Yeah, we want Kim in the WH as 1st ho.

Adam Kinzinger seems likes a reasonable dude.

Well he will be gone in two weeks and we can start to blame other people. Never mind. If history repeats itself, Biden will say it’s still Trump’s fault just like Trump said it was Obama’s. Before that everything was still blamed on Bush. Of course this thread for the most part will follow suit.

Nah remember now is the time we are being told to unify and everything is going to be sunshine and rainbows during this administration. Pay no attention to biden and harris race baiting even before entering the white house.
