Michigan Republican leader: Capitol Hill riots a premeditated hoax
On Feb. 9, the same day the Senate began impeachment hearings against former President Trump, The Detroit Metro Times and other Michigan media outlets simultaneously reported that Michigan Senate Republican Leader Mike Shirkey (R) said the Jan. 6 riot on Capitol Hill was a premeditated hoax.
Shirkey said, “It wasn’t done by Trump supporters, it was a hoax to begin with. Everything was a pre-arranged set-up, funded by someone.”
The newspaper said Hilkey made the remarks last week at a dinner for Republican leaders in Hillsdale County, Michigan.
Hilkey also said Democratic Mayor Muriel Bowser and Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell of Washington, D.C., should take at least some responsibility for the Jan. 6 riot.
“I think they wanted to see a mess, and McConnell was one of them,” he said.
When someone on the scene reminded Shirky that Bowser may have been behind that riot, he said, “She’s a stooge.”
A group called “Take Back Our Republic” (R.O.A.R.) filmed the scene and uploaded the video to youtube, the paper said.
Holly: Trapped in the sex spy gate Congressman as impeachment manager is provocative Congress
The picture shows Swalwell at the impeachment hearing of Trump.
Josh Hawley, a Missouri senator, said Wednesday, Feb. 10, that allowing California Rep. Eric Swalwell, who is embroiled in a scandal with Chinese Communist spy Fang Fang, to serve as manager of the impeachment case is a provocation to the U.S. Congress.
The Senate’s impeachment case against former U.S. President Donald Trump is entering its second day. Swalwell, the manager of the House Trump impeachment team, said at the impeachment hearing on the 10th that several of Trump’s tweets incited the mob to riot on Jan. 6, and that Trump called that day a “historic day” on the 6th.
But Hawley harshly criticized Swalwell for his own problems. He said, “Having someone involved in the Communist Party’s spy ring as an impeachment manager is a provocative choice.”
Axios.com reported last December that Swalwell was believed to have had an inappropriate relationship with Fang Fang because he, as a member of the House Intelligence Committee, had been the target of solicitation by Fang Fang, a Chinese Communist spy with whom Swalwell had also become friends.
Trump case day 2 impeachment party throws amazing surveillance, however…

On Feb. 10, the U.S. Senate impeachment trial against former President Trump entered its second day and the first day of substantive debate. The House impeachment manager released security surveillance footage from inside the Capitol Hill event of Jan. 6. The footage has never been available before, thus becoming the highlight of the first day for the prosecution’s impeachment staff.
The mind-blowing footage includes a view of the first intruders breaking into the interior of the Capitol, Watch China Compiled reports. At one point, the intruders moved away from Vice President Mike Pence. Mike Pence was within striking distance before Pence was evacuated by security cover.
Impeachment managers released the footage along with videos from the Jan. 6 Capitol Hill incident that had been released to the public, and they created such a roar in the Senate chamber that they could be heard outside in the hallway even through the closed doors.
However, instead of convincing Republican lawmakers that Trump is responsible for the mob, the footage suggests that Trump is not to be impeached.
Texas Republican U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas), who is a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, said the mob was not responsible. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) told reporters, “Today’s speech was powerful and emotional, reliving a terrorist attack that took place in our nation’s capital.”
“But (in terms of the impeachment conviction itself,) little was said about the specific conduct of how President (Trump) met the statutory criteria (for conviction).”
Unable to agree to impeach Trump, former CIA official leaves Democratic Party

Bryan-Dean Wright, a former U.S. CIA official, said that far-left forces impeached former President Trump twice for the purpose of political persecution, such that he could not stand it and finally decided to leave the Democratic Party.
Compiled by Voice of Hope on Feb. 11, Wright said in an interview with U.S. media outlet Daily Caller, “For several years, many Democrats like me have witnessed firsthand how the far-left forces in the U.S. have smeared Trump. They have spent billions of dollars using endless hateful and violent language against Trump, which is completely inconsistent with traditional American values. These farces should sound the alarm to American political leaders and activists across the spectrum that these Democratic Party practices will not only fail to unite the people, but will cause enormous economic damage and unrest and division in the country.”
White said, “The far left in modern politics has colluded with the media to generate public hatred of Trump. The left is constantly stirring up trouble and fomenting political division. It is clear that the consequences of this will lead to more violence and vandalism in society.”
“Democrats, like me, just can’t stand this party anymore and I have to quit because I have no choice. The question is, what choice do we have in politics?The polls for the 2020 election give us the answer, and that is: many people have left the Democratic Party and joined the Trump-led Republican Party, which is returning political power to the people.”
Trump’s eldest son: Republicans need to fight back or they won’t win another election
Donald Trump Jr., son of former U.S. President Donald Trump, said Feb. 9 that the Republican Party needs to fight back to ensure electoral integrity or it will never win another election.
In an interview on Fox News’ “The Laura Ingraham Show” on Tuesday, Donald Jr. said that if Republicans don’t stand up, if they don’t act, if they do what they do best, which is pretend they’re standing on principle, they will “never win another election.”
Donald Jr. added that they (Republican lawmakers) had better learn from this and make sure that “we really have fairness in our elections, make sure we really get things right” and make sure they can’t be manipulated in this way, or they won’t even be able to keep their jobs as lawmakers in a few years.
Republicans want to take back the House in 2022, targeting 47 vulnerable Democratic districts
Pictured is the Capitol.
House Republicans have unveiled a plan to recapture the House majority in 2022, and they are targeting 47 vulnerable Democratic districts.
The National Republican Congressional Committee noted in a memo that Republicans are just five seats short of holding a majority in the House of Representatives, the Epoch Times reported in a Feb. 11 compilation. And that the Republican Party is competitive in more than 40 districts.
“Only a few weeks into the Biden administration, Americans have already seen the job-killing programs supported by House Democrats,” said National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Tom Emmer (R-Texas) in a press release. “We will leave no stone unturned to hold House Democrats accountable for their socialist agenda and ensure voters understand the devastating impact (Democrats’) cuts to police funding, government regulation of health care, and ending the Keystone XL pipeline project will have on the daily lives of Americans.”
Emmer noted that in the House, Republicans are “just five seats short of a majority and ready to build on a successful 2020.”
The committee made a list that included 29 districts that either do not support Joe Biden (R-Okla.) or have less than five points of support for the incumbent House member. Republicans also noted that 10 Democratic lawmakers could face redistricting problems next year, and eight other Democratic lawmakers, who won by less than 10 points, also did not perform as well as Biden.
Emmer added that the Republican Party “will continue to focus on recruiting talented, diverse candidates, aggressively expose the Democratic Party’s socialist agenda, and raise enough resources to win the 2022 election.
National Guard troops still spending nights in freezing parking lots in Washington
The day after Biden was inaugurated as the 46th president of the United States, there was an incident in which thousands of National Guard soldiers stationed at the Capitol were whisked away to spend the night in a freezing cold garage, and Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) pledged at the Time that “this will not happen again. However, the same thing happened again this week.
On the morning of the 9th, Republican U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert tweeted two photos showing some National Guard soldiers suspected of spending the night in a parking garage, where most of the soldiers were sitting on the floor.
Boebert also posted a question to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), “Why, nearly three weeks after the initial outrage, are our National Guard troops still being allowed to rest and sleep in a freezing cold garage?”
In the post, Bobert hinted that the photos were taken the night before. She exclaimed, “This has to stop, now!”
U.S. Budget Deficit Grows 89% at Beginning of FY 2021
Pictured is the U.S. Treasury Department
On Wednesday (Feb. 10), the U.S. Treasury Department said the U.S. budget shortfall totaled a record $736 billion in the first four months of fiscal year 2021, an 89 percent increase compared with the same period last year.
Watch China compiled reports that last month, as the U.S. Treasury Department, in Congress in December, reached a $900 billion economic bailout agreement and issued another round of stimulus checks and other federal aid, causing federal spending to climb, thus widening the budget deficit for the fiscal year.
The U.S. Treasury noted that the budget shortfall in the first four months of fiscal 2021 totaled a record $736 billion as government spending exceeded revenue, with collections totaling nearly $1.2 trillion, up 1 percent from October to January, while spending increased a record 23 percent to $1.9 trillion, largely due to increased spending on programs such as unemployment benefits and Medicaid.
For the 12 months ending in January, the U.S. deficit totaled $3.47 trillion, or 16.2 percent of economic output.
Biden withdraws pipeline permits to hit economy hard, 14 state attorneys general take on the fight
This week, the attorneys general of 14 states asked President Biden to reconsider his decision to revoke the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline, warning that the move has caused serious economic damage and that they will take legal action.
The action was initiated by Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen, the Epoch Times reports. In a Feb. 9 letter to Biden, the attorneys general of the 14 Republican states said, “We are appalled by your unilateral and hasty decision to revoke the 2019, presidentially approved pipeline permit.”
The attorneys general said the cancellation of the pipeline was a decision that “caused serious economic harm to states, communities, families and workers across the country” and urged Biden to reconsider reinstating the permit, while warning that they are “reviewing the legal options available.”
In the letter, Knudsen denounced Biden’s decision to revoke the permits as a symbolic act of moral signaling with little practical impact that would do nothing to achieve his stated goal of protecting Americans and the domestic economy from harmful climate impacts.
In the U.S., virtue signaling is the practice of appearing to be on the side of moral righteousness with some sort of vain, packaged rhetoric.
Montana Attorney General Knutson said, “The real-world costs [after a permit is revoked] are devastating. Nationwide, your decision will eliminate thousands of good-paying jobs, many of which are union (members’) jobs.”
The Archstone pipeline project would provide 42,100 jobs in Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska and Kansas and is expected to create about 3,900 direct jobs over the course of one to two years of construction, according to a 2014 State Department report.
Biden had claimed in canceling the permit that the pipeline would do little to benefit the nation’s energy security and economy and said it would undermine the administration’s efforts to combat climate change.
Knudsen also said in his letter that Biden did not explain how “killing the Keystone XL pipeline project would directly advance the goal of ‘protecting Americans and the domestic economy from harmful climate impacts,'” and that Biden’s decision did not “actually cure any of the climate ills he himself mentioned.”
Knutson said, “So only one reasonable speculation remains: this is a symbolic moral act addressed to special interests and the international community.”
