Liberal law professor Jonathan Turley blasted the Democrats for trying to go after President Donald Trump with impeachment for supposedly ‘inciting’ in regard to the Capitol protest.
First Turley points out that the facts don’t support the Democrats’ claims. While Turley was not a fan of all the words that Trump used during his rally prior to the Capitol protest, he said that “Trump never called for violence or a riot.” Trump’s remarks didn’t meet the definition for a criminal claim of incitement or the impeachment standard, Turley declared.
“Rather, he urged his supporters to march on the Capitol to express opposition to the certification of electoral votes and to support the challenges being made by some members of Congress. He expressly told his followers ‘to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard. ”
A printing company in Maryland saw the photo on Twitter Wednesday night: an employee roaming the halls of the U.S. Capitol with a company badge around his neck. He was fired the next day.
Pope Francis said in a recent interview that the violence that broke out at the United States Capitol building on Wednesday must be condemned. Violence is always like this, the Pope said in comments to Italy s Canale 5 channel that CNN translated to English, adding that that there are violent outbreaks in every country s history and no people can boast of not having one day a case of violence. The interview is set to air in full on Sunday. We must understand well and reflect, learn how not to repeat it, learn from history, he said.
In a preview clip viewed by CNN, the leader of the Catholic Church said he was amazed by Wednesday s events because the US is so disciplined in democracy.
