The Cyber Ninjas achieved what they were paid for - casting doubt on the election results. It doesn't matter that their investigation was a load of nonsense.

As usual Trump dominates the political rhetoric, nay, the very political lives, of Biden and the Democrats. Will the Dems be successful with these 6 years and counting, ongoing attacks on Trump and his supporters? With the MSM echo chamber it worked in 2020. But times have changed, the "Russian Collusion Dossier", the Ukraine quid quo pro Impeachment, fell apart, and the "insurrection" Impeachment, fared no better. To believe that the events of January 6th amounted to an "armed insurrection", with a few hundred rioters and no one charged with "Sedition", or "Treason", is to sell the powerful right wing way too short. Lol The whole deal has been hyped by Pelosi, In the same way as the real domestic terrorism coming out of the BLM and associated movements, has been buried. https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2021/09/09/realclearinvestigations_jan_6-blm_comparison_database_791370.html Aside from the usual suspects, the American People are not buying it. Latest polling: RCP Average of all polls Biden Approve 42.1 Disapprove 54.6 RCP Favorability ratings Pelosi Favorable 33 Unfavorable 57.7 Trump Favorable 41.8 Unfavorable 51.7 They are desperate, folks, and it shows.

Five deaths. At least 138 police officers injured. Damage, vandalism and theft to the tune of $30 million.

Just who are these "5 DEAD"? Here's WIKI: "Ashli Elizabeth Babbitt, a (unarmed)35-year-old Air Force veteran, was fatally shot in the upper chest by Lt. Michael Leroy Byrd while attempting to climb into the shattered window of a barricaded door.[353] This was soon ruled a justified homicide.[274][354][355] Brian Sicknick, a 42-year-old responding Capitol Police officer, was pepper-sprayed during the riot and suffered from two thromboembolic strokes the next day,[356][357] after which he was placed on life support[8] and soon died.[358][359] The D.C. chief medical examiner found he died from a stroke, classifying his death as natural,[360] and commenting that "all that transpired played a role in his condition".[361][362] Rosanne Boyland, 34, died of an amphetamine overdose during the riot, rather than being trampled by other rioters after her collapse,[363] ruled accidental by the D.C. medical examiner's office.[19] Kevin Greeson, 55, and Benjamin Philips, 50, died naturally from coronary heart disease and hypertensive heart disease.[19] Some rioters[note 12] and 138 police officers (73 Capitol Police and 65 Metropolitan Police) were injured,[21] of whom 15 were hospitalized, some with severe injuries.[22] All had been released from the hospital by January 11.[365] "Harris slammed for comparing Capitol riot to 9/11, Pearl Harbor attacks" "Vice President Kamala Harris caused outrage Thursday by comparing the Jan. 6 Capitol riot to the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 and the Sept. 11 attacks on New York and Washington by al Qaeda terrorists. “Certain dates echo throughout history, including dates that instantly remind all who have lived through them where they were, and what they were doing when our democracy came under assault,” Harris said in remarks at the Capitol’s Statuary Hall on Thursday morning. “Dates that occupy not only a place on our calendars, but a place in our collective memory: December 7, 1941, September 11, 2001, and January 6, 2021,” Harris added. "Critics immediately slammed the vice president, accusing her of a hyperbolic lack of historical perspective. https://nypost.com/2022/01/06/kamala-harris-slammed-for-comparing-jan-6-riot-to-9-11-and-pearl-harbor/ It's always wise to keep a little perspective on click bait political rhetoric.

Looks like you, and those "critics" in your linked article, fell at the first hurdle! All she had to do to have a little credibility was to mention the Rioting, Arson, Looting and ransacking of neighborhood Mom and Pop stores, that engulfed all the major U.S. cities after the BLM protests. Went on for months. Those "insurrections" far exceeded the damage from a legally approved "Save America" rally on the Mall, that got out of hand, and turned into a mini riot that was over and done by 6.pm. A lot of people who lived through the mayhem, and saw their businesses trashed, and their staff terrorized, still remember. As for rest of the Harris speech, well, we can put you in that 37% who approve of her performance. She knows her audience.
