Tucker recounts the events of January 6th, 2020, the ongoing manhunt for insidious Trump voters while people encouraging actual illegal activity are glazed over. Highlights include:
“How do you commemorate something like this, a history-changing event that’s horrible to think about yet so significant in the life of the country? Body counts are the traditional measure. When the nation was wracked by unimaginable loss in years past, that’s how we remembered it… But this is a new time, a different age. Those antiquated metrics won’t work as we observe a moment of silence for the fallen of January 6th.”
“It’s not about body counts. It’s about feelings. It’s about how the ‘survivors’ feel, especially the reporters who survived.”
“The feelings of reporters in Washington matter a great deal in America. They certainly matter a lot more than how you feel at the moment. How you feel, as you’ve probably noticed by this point, is totally irrelevant to anyone. But the journalists of Capitol Hill, we do care, and they’re very upset. In fact, many have still not recovered from what they saw that day.”
“In fact, as a political matter, anyway, the anniversary of January 6th is not a joke at all. It’s a serious thing, a very serious thing.”
“Pretending that a protest was actually a failed coup is the democratic party’s entire strategy to win this year’s midterm election. At this point it’s all they’ve got. Governing didn’t work. And that’s why today, the attorney general of the united states … announced the department of justice will continue to harass and arrest people who voted for Donald Trump.”
“Of all the things that January 6th was, it was definitely not a violent terrorist attack. It wasn’t an insurrection. Was it a riot? Sure.”
“It was not a violent terrorist attack … so why are you telling us it was, Ted Cruz?”
