SALEM â Oregon House Republicans disowned an official Oregon Republican Party claim that the riot at the U.S. Capitol was a âfalse flagâ operation by Democrats to politically damage then-President Donald Trump.
A two-page screed featured a resolution passed by the partyâs executive committee calling the 10 House Republicans who voted for the impeachment of President Trump âtraitors.â It claimed the mob of Trump supporters who smashed their way into the U.S. Capitol in a riot that left five dead and 140 police officers injured was a Democratic conspiracy to set off the âshamâ impeachment. The episode was likened to the 1933 burning of the German Reichstag in Berlin by Nazis, who then blamed the fire on others. The party called for a âpatriot networkâ to advance their claims.
