Thompson: We Will Investigate If GOP Reps Helped Capitol Rioters, Could Refer Them to DOJ
Breitbart ^ | 07/12/2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 07/12/2021 11:56:55 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Representative Bennie Thompson (D-MS), chair of the House Select Committee investigating January 6, said Monday on MSNBC’s “MTP Daily” that the committee will investigate if Republican members of Congress helped Capitol rioters.

Thompson said, “We have to see if there were other members of Congress that perhaps contributed to what went on. There have been allegations that some members of Congress gave tours of the Capitol to people who have been in charge of the insurrection. We also have to get with the Department of Justice. We’re not interested in conflicting with the prosecution. But we think there is significant evidence that they might have been able to ascertain in their investigation that could be germane to our committee so that we’ll have the best relationship that we can, but we’re not interested in getting into the prosecutorial aspect of what is going on with the Capital.

What if they find out that DEM reps helped them? Or DOJ/FBI reps helped them?

NEVER MIND. I am sure that info will NEVER be found.

What about Democrats who staged Leftist activists in the building to record?

What about the DNC Brownshirts who stormed the building and were not arrested as Trump supporters ask police why they were standing down while this was going on?

Bennie Thompson is a black racist who believes your skin is your uniform. For the race, everything. Outside the race: nothing.

Dem Reps engaged in such terrorist/insurgent supporting activities numerous times in the past.

Recall the Code Pinko women who were granted passes to enter the Capital and smear Condi Rice with red “blood” paint etc.

Did Chuck Schumer order his security detail to shoot an unarmed woman?

People need to ask Dem pols that question.

To start , doesn’t even have to be true it’s the seriousness of the accusation right ?

Next on the list
Nunes
Cotton
Jordan

And all the others the commies don’t like.

.

They mean to classify us all , for punishment at the least and elimination at worst.

"There have been allegations that some members of Congress gave tours of the Capitol to people who have been in charge of the insurrection."

The only thing I've heard along those lines is that one newly-elected Republican congresswoman gave a tour to members of HER OWN FAMILY. I have heard no reports that any Republican had contact with any of the "leaders of the insurrection," much less gave them a tour. This is just smarmy innuendo.

What I’m hearing is: 90% of the “Republicans” in the House of Reps are actually Democrats.But that leaves 10% Republicans who are Republicans. But now, evidence will be manufactured so that the last 10% of the Republicans can be purged.

Maybe when these GOPers undergo some heat themselves they might get off their lazy asses and help the patriots that are in the DC Gulag.

There have been allegations that some members of Congress gave tours of the Capitol to people who have been in charge of the insurrection.

So FBI agents posing as protestors were sent to interact with members of Congress to entrap them. A well-organized event, on so many levels.
