WATTERS: And then they sabotaged the teleprompter. I mean, this is an insurrection. And what we need to do is either leave the UN or we need to bomb it. It is in New York though right?

GUTFELD: Yeah, it is.

WATTERS: Could be some fallout there. Alright, maybe gas it?

DANA PERINO (CO-HOST): Let’s not do that.

WATTERS: Don’t gas it. Okay, but we need to destroy it. Maybe can we demolish the building? Have everybody leave and then we will demolish the building.

    They’re intentionally misusing ‘insurrection’ to try to make it seem like NOBODY knows what it is, so that January 6th seems like a hoax or Democratic hot air.

      Indeed. These assholes have been doing that ever since J6, really. Everything and anything was an “insurrection”. They’d go apeshit when the media would use that term, even though insurrection is rather neutral, when it’s probably more accurately called terrorism.

      One regular commenter on DP would often just post “INSPLURECTION!” as a response since they basically lost their minds that people even in the corporate media were pointing the finger at their movement. They were even touchy about calling them “rioters” - they wanted them to be called “peaceful protesters” who were just “airing their grievances”, LOL. I have a feeling some of the people that were especially upset about it might have been there and weren’t caught (yet).
