Leftist Media Delusions By Brian Simpson

This one takes the cake; a Leftist reporter has claimed that the January 6 peaceful protest was 1,000 times worse that the 9/11 attacks! Let’s not go into 9/11 and whether or not this was an insider job (it was). Just consider the raw maths. How exactly does he get the 1,000 percent figure? Could it not be 999 or 1,001 percent? What statistical methodology and sampling regime was employed? What justification is there for anything the Left says?  Nothing at all, just ideology. They are not good with numbers, that is for sure!

“HuffPost reporter S.V. Dáte said the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol is “1000 percent worse” than the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, which resulted in the death of nearly 3,000 people, repeating the charge touted by many leftists in the weeks following the incident.

Dáte, the senior White House correspondent at HuffPost, originally responded to a detailed thread by the Washington Examiner’s Byron York, who attempted to add some perspective to the left’s desire to compare the two events.

“The 9/11 al Qaeda attacks killed roughly 3,000 people, brought down New York’s tallest skyscrapers, destroyed part of the Pentagon, crashed four passenger jetliners, and changed U.S. foreign policy for decades,” York said, explaining that the January 6 riot resulted in the “natural-causes death of one Capitol Police officer, the death of one rioter at the hands of police, the ‘acute amphetamine intoxication’ death of another rioter, and the natural causes deaths of two more.”

“Parts of the Capitol were ransacked, but not seriously enough that Congress could not meet and finish its work on the night of the riot. It was appalling, but nothing like September 11,”  York added.

However, Dáte argued the 9/11 terrorists “never threatened the heart of the American experiment.”

“The 1/6 terrorists and Donald Trump absolutely did exactly that,” he said. “Trump continues that effort today.”

One commenter reminded Dáte that United 93 should have crashed into the U.S. Capitol but did not due to the courageous, sacrificial acts of passengers on the plane.

“You think January 6th was worse than that?” he asked Dáte, who responded, “1000 percent worse”:

Earlier this year, Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) criticized Democrats who made similar comparisons, likening the January 6 riot to 9/11.

“First of all, I don’t like 9/11 being used on anything,” he said. “On 9/11, we lost 3,000 people. Three-thousand is horrific. Now, this is a tragedy in itself. But it wasn’t even close to what happened on that day,” he said.

“I think you’re seeing the Democrats just kind of throwing that back and say, ‘Listen, this was a 9/11 comparison,'” he said, repeating his stance that this “wasn’t even close.”

I happen to agree that January 6 was worse than 9/11, since 9/11 was but one attack, while January 6 was an act of Deep State treason, and betrayal, also by Donald Trump. It was the stolen election. Just ask Ashli Babbett … no, you can’t, the Deep State murdered her, and got away with it, and Trump has never said her name, as Chris and Charles often remind us. I politically hate this guy, and I am not even in America! Trump is definitely a plant to push the agenda of the globalists.
