Yes. You read that right. Johnson is saying that he is intentionally hiding insurrectionists from prosecution in the release of tapes that Republicans claim will vindicate them on January 6th.

      Did we kill every German Nazi supporter? No. This BS right here needs to stop. Yes hang the traitors, but leave the people that have nothing to do with this alone. Internet comments are different from in person and real life as a whole.

        Yep, we didn’t do that. And the US also didn’t stamp out the Confederacy when they had the chance. And those may very well be one of the primary reasons that fascism is back once again. The world doesn’t really seem to like truly holding people accountable when they can get away with it.

        Fascism is perhaps the purest concentrated evil on this planet and is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of millions. Everybody who supports and gives power to fascism has blood on their hands.

      I get this is hyperbolae. But this hyperbolae is advocating for mass murder.

      You do understand that you’re one of the badies right?

          Painting in such broad strokes is exactly what the GOP does too. If you call everyone a nazi all the time, nobody gives a shit when actual nazis arrive. Which is exactly what we’re seeing.

          Do better.

          Wtf is this unhinged gaslighting that wouldn’t even trick a two year old? You literally said:

          All Republicans are Nazis.

          All Nazis must hang.

          Therefore, should all Republicans be hanged?

        Iove how taking a stance against political violence gets downvoted around here. We win at the ballot box, not with whatever left wing version of fascism these people fantasize about.
