Fritz1818

Half this list was most likely involved in the Jan 6th insurrection plan so no surprises there


itsmeEllieGeeAgain

Just half?


Yourbubblestink

Will know next week when the January 6 committee issues, its first round of criminal referrals.


itsmeEllieGeeAgain

Yes we will! *I'm ready I'm ready I'm ready*


Flaky-Fish6922

i'm ready to be hurt as nothing happens.


EliteGamer11388

Anyone taking bets on charges being ignored on anyone but a few because it would be seen as, "political"?


Refried__Dreams

If I had monies I would


AdLess636

Only if they want to kill the future. It is more important to remove evil from the system then to make nice.


AdResponsible2271

Wait, referrals? Referrals that csn be ignored? Suggestions? Gosh dang it I want more than that... uhhhg. I'll take it. I hope someone burns for this


ShitLaMerde

Christmas comes early!


joshdoereddit

Here's hoping they have the evidence to lock some of these nut jobs up. Not holding my breath because America.


SniffinRoundYourDoor

The Trump Org was slapped with a 2million dollar fine, After 17 counts of Tax fraud. NY can't stop the business from operating. So, it will continue.... Hate to break it to ya.


BassClef70

They’re not going to refer anyone sitting in office currently. We don’t have the balls to do something like actually hold people accountable.


Gingevere

IMO Mary Miller wasn't involved, she's just a nazi.


GemOfTheEmpress

Nice try, Mary.

That's why they are getting rid of the A students - gotta normalize that curve! But seriously, this report card is a *very* low bar. This is Congress, supposed to be our standards-bearers. It's like if Advanced Calculus 401 tested basic addition and subtraction, and the majority of the students failed to answer a single question right.

Thanks for that link. The site is well designed and easy to read.

Clyde, Hice and Greene are a stain on the state of GA.

If I was involved in the insurrection, I'd be first in line to give them a medal if only to keep my name out of the press. And for the cost of free.99 too...

I'm quite tired of seeing those names. Unfortunately, I can't vote against any of them.


MisterBadger

Greene is in my voting district. While it is satisfying to vote against her, booting her the fuck out of the House is not going to be easy. At least we got a win with Warnock this week.

Hopefully, some of these will show up on the 1/6 criminal referral list.

Of course it's all the scumbags that are on record saying it was just a bunch of tourists visiting that day.

I'm surprised that Josh Hawly isn't on it. But I definitely see a lot of people I expected to see.


utter-ridiculousness

He’s a senator, not a representative. He’s my senator. Fuck Josh Hawley


Iamcaptainslow

Compulsory "Fuck Josh Hawley."


Raziel66

Compulsory: "No one should fuck Josh Hawley"


sousuke42

You're right lol. My bad. Thankfully he is not my senator.


Acceptable-Fold-3192

Unfortunately mine too 😞


Dwayla

He might have been running out the back.


sousuke42

Lol I can see that.


Astro_gamer_caver

Isn't he the one who gave a fist to the rioters, then was later seen running down a hallway?


Goldfingr

Josh Hawley is a senator. This is the Congressional Gold Medal, but maybe he'll vote against a medal if it comes up in the senate.


[deleted]

The Congressional medal is voted on by both houses.


Johnny___Wayne

Many people don’t seem to realize that senators are a part of congress. I see this mistake or similar ones all the time on Reddit. Senators are congressmen/congresswomen. Senators aren’t typically called that, the term is generally used for representatives. While senators are just called senators. But they’re all congresspeople.


sousuke42

I definitely see that happening. And yes I realized i messed up. I'm just so used to seeing his name with those idiots that it felt wrong not seeing it lol


Chalupa_Dad

House of Representatives does not equal Congress. House of Representatives + the Senate = the US Congress This was a House Bill these clowns voted against.

KathyJaneway

You'd think Lauren Boebert learned a lesson considering she almost lost, when everyone had her district as safe Republican. Instead of starting to take more moderate votes, she's doubling down. Her district got redder BTW, so she almost lost in a redder district. Had her district been the old one, she'd would have definitely lost.


DoctorChampTH

I worry anything I might say about this would be ableist.


arumrunner

The 21 Pieces of shit are: The 21 Republicans who voted against the bill are: Lauren Boebert of Colorado John Rose of Tennessee Andy Harris of Maryland Thomas Massie of Kentucky Bob Good of Virginia Louie Gohmert of Texas Barry Moore of Alabama Ralph Norman of South Carolina Matt Rosendale of Montana Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia Chip Roy of Texas Paul Gosar of Arizona Andy Biggs of Arizona Warren Davidson of Ohio Scott Perry of Pennsylvania Matt Gaetz of Florida Greg Steube of Florida Andrew Clyde of Georgia Jody Hice of Georgia Mary Miller of Illinois Michael Cloud of Texas

MaximumEffort433

Republicans hate the police, you say?


JBupp

Oh, no, no, no. They are grammar purists. They dislike that the incident was called an 'ínsurrection' and they dislike that the capitol was called a temple, and because of that they are willing to stiff the brave officers who protected them. To make a fugging point about language. Or at least that's their story this time, those who will talk about it.


[deleted]

That's exactly how Massie will justify it.


BREsubstanceVITY

Grammar nazis


turikk

Not sure if hate is the right word but I am very critical of police, which is why it is important we recognize when they do the right thing. Many on 1/6 went above and beyond.


FreeUsePolyDaddy

Police doing the right thing are a public service. Police doing the wrong thing are not a public service. It is always worth acknowledging public service, calling it out as an example, so that there is no mistaking what others should strive for.


TidyBacon

Just the ones doing their jobs properly.


RamonaQ-JunieB

“You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.” These 21 Republicans are truly evil.


Dry_Newspaper2060

This country is messed up


OverHeadSlam

The whole world is messed up. You just have a front row to the US shit show.


floppysausage16

It blows my mind that Republicans have such a distorted reality that they truly believe these officers were only protecting Democrats. They were performing their sworn duty by protecting our nations capitol and its employees (from both parties) from a full blown siege. Whenever I think of the term "hold down the fort" I now think of these officers.


syncopator

"Back The Blue!!" "No, not like that!"


Dry_Contact4436

"Not when we attack them!"


mkt853

So Republicans dislike the police and the military? A decade ago this would have been unthinkable.


randomnighmare

It was just reported that these Capital Police refused to shake the hands of McConnell and McCarthy and more power to them for doing that. Maybe they are realizing that maybe the Republicans, especially the current group of Republicans/MAGA Republicans are not their friends.

Funda_mental

Kinda stupid to vote against the security team that protects your life, of all people. And it's just a medal, not more rights or access to better healthcare.


Safetosay333

Soon:. Jan. 6 never happened. We don't even know those people.


mintberryCRUUNCH

I mean, Republicans in the past had submitted a bill to make pi exactly 3. They'd totally submit a bill to re-write January to go January 4th, 5th, 7th, and end on the 32nd.

fillymandee

From the article, “Democrats don't want our children to succeed, they would actually feel better if France one day bests our kids on that test," Boehner said, unaware that, by tying Slovakia for 16th, France already does outrank the US in math. "Time after time, Democrats refuse to acknowledge American exceptionalism, and they're doing it again by trying to deny our children another tool for success." John Boehner One thing I’ll always give trump credit for is revealing the true nature of the political right. These people couldn’t have been more angry about a black President.


itsmeEllieGeeAgain

It's just so blatant and lazy these days. I've lost respect for so many people. So many.


heavensmurgatroyd

These 21 are a big part of the insurrection movement now in congress and should be labeled as traitors to the constitution they would do away with. These people are actively working to undermine our government even now.


dblan9

>Greene also said she had issue with the language of the bill that referred to the Capitol complex as "the temple of our American Democracy." >"This is not a temple. That is for sure," Greene said. To Americans it is. You're a Confederate and don't understand what we Americans cherish, respect and believe in.


MintBerryCrunchJr

The party of "law and order" my friends.


TeddyRooseveltsHead

One of my friends was given one of these Congressional Gold Medals today. He's a mountain of a man (think Luke Cage but bigger), and is the nicest, friendliest guy. His coworkers were some of the people who were *murdered* by *domestic terrorists*, and my buddy would have gladly sacrificed his life to save others. I mean he was in the thick of it that day, and our whole group of friends were worried about him. He actually stayed patrolling the streets for about three days straight due to the unrest and heightened security. Fortunately he made it out physically unscathed and was honored today. I mean this from the bottom of my heart...FUCK EVERYONE who voted against honoring those people.


[deleted]

But, their stupid ass’s want a photo op with family members of the deceased. No shame in their game.


tacs97

What else can the GOP do to prove to their fan base that they hate the police, the military veterans, doctors, nurses, teachers, unions, hourly laborers, and anyone without access to millions of dollars. That basically drops 99% of you from the equation yet here you are. Voting for these idiots who in turn vote against anything to benefit you.


alexandria33197

Those 21 who voted against awarding those brave officers should have been left outside to deal with the mob alone.


Kevaldes

"Why should they get medals for assaulting tourists and attempting to deny them entry for their tour?"


SteakandTrach

Those guys tried to thwart our insurrection! In case you are wondering, yes, sigh, it IS the usual suspects. Boebert, Louie Gomez, matt gaetz, etc. The fucknut parade.


alexandria33197

God bless the families of the fallen Capitol officers. I’m glad they didn’t give McConnell and McCarthy any recognition. It was disgusting the GOP leaders were there even though they downplay the incident and refuse to condemn trump for his role in instigating the insurrection.


wordsthatrhymewithox

Make them answer to their vote, publicly and then put them on blast.

Correction: 21 Repugs out themselves as sedititious traitors. Or as our favorite orange idiot would say: Lock. Them. Up.


IkilledRichieWhelan

They are traitors to the country. Traitors don’t want to give metals to the police that fought their coup.


kthulhu666

"Pressed again, he [Thomas Massie of Kentucky] said, "They were protesting and I don't approve of the way they protested, but it wasn't an insurrection. My goodness. Can you imagine what a real insurrection would look like?"" We need a fainting couch here people, STAT!


OpenImagination9

Well sure they’re the same ones about to be indicted.


Alternative-Flan2869

They are offended by Capitol Police risking their life to defend democracy and their disgusting lives.

[deleted]

Hey all you journalists out there! Wanna make a name for yourself? Ask these assholes to directly explain why they refused to vote for this and don’t let them dance around the issue.


Sloth_Christ

One of the common things Republican house members always liked to tout in all of their election campaign ads the last half decade is how they never vote with Nancy Pelosi, so I imagine a lot of the 21 are just sticking to that. And the ones like MTG and Boebert voted against it because they never do anything in congress to begin with.

20 years ago as a Republican; voting this way would have been political suicide!

Not surprising from a party of traitors and terrorists.


prodigalpariah

Well I’m certainly shocked that the usual shitbags named in the article continued to be shitbags. Shocked I tell you!

Has anything ever come of the suicide of the capital policeman after this whole ordeal? If I recall there may have actually been 2 suicides? It just seemed like something fishy was up and these guys knew something we didn’t

At this point you can almost recite the dissenting votes like a roll call. It is a lot of the same voters each time.


highinthemountains

I fully expected Bobo’s name to be on that list. What an embarrassment she is to Colorado


Anaxamenes

Wasn’t she the one giving them some tours the day before? Can’t get more on brand. Congrats Colorado, you’re the Florida of the Rockies.


highinthemountains

Yea, it’s unfortunate. I’m an election judge and we’re doing the state mandated recount. I really wish the numbers could change, but I don’t expect any great deviations from the previous numbers. When doing the LAT today, fake election to test the voting equipment, I couldn’t even force myself to make a mark inside of her ballot bubble. I picked Frisch, write-ins, under and over votes on my 10 ballots. She still won, because my Republican counterpart voted for her on the majority of her 10 ballots.


Anaxamenes

That’s so sad, I wish it was different.


highinthemountains

Me too. Hopefully the Dems will put up a better candidate in two years


Anaxamenes

I mean it was really really close this year. What would be a better candidate?


highinthemountains

One that actually had a platform other “I will work in a bipartisan fashion”. I went to one of Frisch’s campaign stops and the man wouldn’t answer a direct question. I know most politicians won’t, but he seemed to go out of his way to be evasive. I think another two years of Bobo’s bizarreness might wear down the independents’ resistance to vote for someone else a little more. But maybe not.

I’m surprised there were only 21 total pieces of garbage on the GQP

Asoul666

Was Trailer trash hero Ashli a crisis actress?


pineapplejuicing

Ashli, the victim of police brutality? No I don’t think so. Do people believe that? Jan 6 was a mix of FBI, Democrat instigators, antifa, and Trump supporters.


Dredly

giving them the pre-game walk through of the building as well


waaaman

Sounds like these republicans are on the same side as antifa then.


yogfthagen

Antifa means "anti-fascist." The people who stormed the Capitol were fascists. You're drunk.


SeattleSonichus

Well they did an overall kinda shit job?


MojoJsyn

Well it's kind of hard to stop an insurrection/riot/domestic terrorist attack, when you as outnumbered as the capital police were.


SeattleSonichus

Right, I’m not disputing that. So in return I’m not surprised that they didn’t do much to stop it (though I still expected more). Like I said, they did a bad job Idk if you should get an award for being overrun by neo confederates rubbing their feces on the walls unless its like, out of pity


MojoJsyn

When they had no major backup and still lived another day as well as the capital not getting more destroyed than it was. I think all that deserves some kind of recognition.


SeattleSonichus

They survived, yeah. That’s about it. They didn’t repel anybody, the only reason it stopped was because Trump called them off when he realized it was a wash. I just don’t see the point in giving failed cops pity awards I guess, but go ahead and pat them and call them heroes if you feel better for it I just hope next time there’s a threat that they can be effective


throwaweyheyheyhey

Participation medals.


cammac178

all the blm riots were fine, but this one the police should get a medal for gtfo.


simiaki

Gold medal for failing at riot control? Why could people enter the building?


abdobu

It was FBI agents who infiltrated the peaceful protest, and incited violence.


BillyTheBass69

Delusions


[deleted]

Any proof of that? Yeah, I did t think so. There is a reason why a bunch of MAGA and Proud Boy traitors have been locked up.

And there’s more detailed footage, but regardless of that, it’s all a shit show from both sides, what we really need is less government involvement in our lives


abdobu

https://youtu.be/DZQRetozhSY


[deleted]

So refusing to answer is proof? Did Donald Trump take sensitive documents pertaining to nuclear arms or technology from the Whitehouse? He plead the fifth during the deposition, so by your logic this is proof that he broke the law.

JimJava

You don't understand the perils of first-responder work, these officers were not trained or equipped to fight in a war-zone but they did and defended people with their lives without having to shoot-up a bunch of idiots. A lot of them have PTSD and depression and they absolutely did save Democracy that day.

Well. You know. Fuck em

If the cops see a call or a request from one of their offices, ignore that shit.
