I noted I disagreed with Jeffries stance on Trump.

Thank you for admitting that Hakeem Jeffries is an election denier. What are your thoughts on the Democratic party electing an election denier to lead their party in Washington?

[Masterofreality]

I noted I disagreed with Jeffries stance on Trump. And Trump is the current party head and leading candidate for the Rep. nomination...and he is the one constantly denying an election 2 years old. It's the foundation of his base.

But more importantly, I'm not thumping my chest or telling anyone how to act. People will do and say what they want.

That does not prevent me, as I said earlier, from "hoping" our discourse is a little more respectful of each other, and less disparaging if we disagree.

Hahaha. People from your party are still saying Al Gore won in 2000, that Ohio’s voting machines were tampered with in 2004 (Barbara Boxer) and that Donald Trump was an illegitimate president.
Now you have a Democratic leader in the House who is a flat out election denier.
You are the biggest hypocrite on here.
Stop with your blather Pontificating. It’s a threat to Democracy.
By the way, the Repubs won the House….But Democracy continues unabated.

I don't think he has been elected leader of the minority yet.
And the biggest election denier is the current leader of the Republican party.

He fomented an insurrection and now other people are paying the price.

A highly partisan Washington DC court, and Rhodes wasn’t even in Washington on January 6.
He was brought up on a charge that is hardly ever used in a stretch to do “something”.
“ Members of the right-wing Proud Boys are also due in court on seditious conspiracy charges next month, including the group’s leader, Enrique Tarrio, who, like Rhodes, never entered the Capitol and was not present in Washington that day.”

Now talk to me about all of the seditious FBI agents in the crowd inciting them on that day, verified.
Thank Gawd this sham Commission is going away.

A highly partisan Washington DC court, and Rhodes wasn’t even in Washington on January 6.

On the stand Monday, Rhodes told jurors that he spent the morning of the riots at a hotel—and only went to the Capitol when he learned of the news that the barricades to the government building had been breached by rioters.

Neither a court, nor a commission, convicted this Yale educated lawyer person of the charges of seditious conspiracy...a jury convicted him.

Oh really? What elected office does he hold? I'm not a Trump fan but geezus how long are you gonna blabber on about the guy?

[paulxu]

I suppose as long as he remains in the news influencing the Republican party.

I'd be very happy if he just went away.

He's not the leader of the republican party anymore. That ended with the midterms. Get some new material

“Neither a court”.. Uh, a DC biased jury IS part of the court. And I merely quoted the story you posted. Fake news?

Meanwhile other election denier news. Looks like ol Stacy grifted herself into a LOT of Money. Her and Beto are the Poster People of Grift!

"The court" generally refers to the judge making a ruling or handing down a verdict. This verdict came from a jury,

As to the article you note on the non-profit, here's a quote from it:

While Abrams and Warnock are no longer affiliated with the New Georgia Project

Would you care to comment on whether Rhodes was actually in DC on January 6th?
