4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title.

Delay, deny, and depose the FBI. The FBI isn't acting like this during a Trump presidency, this is the most lenient it gets at, during a democratic presidency. With a Trump presidency, Americans should familiarize themselves with current Russian society to know what they should expect for its future. Fuck your messed up police state, Americans, and fuck a constitution that only seems to be propaganda bullshit that is too much for the FBI to live by.
Trump LITERARILY incited a violent mob that killed a cop and the FBI was like "ugh, we're so weak our hands are tied 😭"
But some lady venting over our shitty healthcare and there they go like Rambo.
This is why people don't trust cops, and this is why people hate the rich.
I agree with the end of what you wrote, but I thought the mob didn't actually kill the police officer? I try to absorb news from diverse sources so I'm used to getting different versions of a story. I wonder which version is more spun?
Edit after writing that comment, I looked at the wiki article about it. I guess the police officer was pepper sprayed by two rioters, one of whom got 7 years prison for that. The officer died the next day of two strokes. There was some misreporting about the cause of his death, but it was ruled natural causes. That determination also ended up a little controversial.

5 people died during the riot.
As far as I'm concerned, Trump is directly responsible for those.
That article isn't very great, and since it was written just 5 days after the events, it had to be later corrected. It sounds like there were realistically only two deaths that were related to the events of the day. One was maybe crushed trying to push through a police line. One was shot by police. The officer, I already addressed in my edit he died of strokes the following day, ruled natural causes. One was a trump supporter who died of a heart attack, and another was a trump supporter who died of a stroke, but it didn't sound like either of them were involved in the mob activity. I'd be curious to read a more recent analysis of those five people's deaths, the wiki today doesn't read much like that article about the police officer.
You're right within 5 days there weren't all the deaths. Four officers killed themselves due to the events of January 6th. I guarantee they were Republicans who had their own people attacking them for doing their job.
Lol you sound like the VA...oh you were beaten and pepper sprayed in a high-stresd situation....but died of a completely unrelated stroke? Guess it was unrelated. The officers died because of the actions of trump taint-lickers.
