    Did nobody here read the article?

    A spokesperson for Stein said she was unaware of Pool’s reported connection to Jan. 6; a lawyer for Pool insisted his client was filming a documentary, not taking part in the attack.

    Just because you’re somewhere people are doing bad things doesn’t mean you’re in support of it, especially if you’re filming them doing bad things…

    The real story here is that she had to pay any law firm at all to fight against the Democratic party to get on the ballot, because the Democratic party is suing to undermine democracy.

      Riiiight. She was totally unaware of it. Because Russian shills are notorious for being honest about their deceit.

                They keep referencing what Jill said, which tells me they didn’t read it. I didn’t say anything about what Jill said. I referenced the fact that they were making a documentary about the event. And they literally condemned it as an “attack”. Insurrectionists defend the insurrection

                  She’s a Russian shill. That’s what the article says. I fail to see why you’re here defending it still.

      There’s what they claim they were there for that hasn’t been litigated yet and what they are seen on video doing (carrying around a bike rack style blockade and waving a gadsen flag). This is completely ignoring the recent assault charges they’ve received these are both easily found online.

      Yeah. While I think its wack to vote 3rd party given the risks of a republican win with anything nowadays. Stein has been around for awhile and if she was motivated by a win at all costs type thing she would not be part of the green party. I mean she could have easily ran for house or senate as a democrat and likley have had a political career for the last few decades.
