Not the least bit misleading, cherry picker.

Seriously make an effort to be clear in your posts.

the consent of the election was planned a month earlier great way to twist words

I assume you mean the 'contesting' of the election. First came the legal challenges, all of which failed. THEN the fake electors scheme, the 'defrauding of the U.S' referral, was improvised. Followed by the clear incitement of the insurrection captured on TV.

Lastly, if any of the referrals were based upon withholding of video that somehow showed a 'peaceful' protest, the essence of your dumbass argument, then they would collapse upon discovery by the defense of those videos,

The committee had no dumbass Margies, Sloeberts or Gym Jordans on it, so nothing as glaringly stupid as omitting videos happened.

Jan. 6 report: Trump ‘lit that fire’ of Capitol insurrection

By MARY CLARE JALONICK, ERIC TUCKER, FARNOUSH AMIRI, JILL COLVIN, MICHAEL BALSAMO and NOMAAN MERCHANT

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House Jan. 6 committee’s final report asserts that Donald Trump criminally engaged in a “multi-part conspiracy” to overturn the lawful results of the 2020 presidential election and failed to act to stop his supporters from attacking the Capitol, concluding an extraordinary 18-month investigation into the former president and the violent insurrection two years ago.

Trump “lit that fire,” the committee’s chairman, Mississippi Rep. Bennie Thompson, writes.

The 814-page report released late Thursday comes after the panel interviewed more than 1,000 witnesses, held 10 hearings and obtained more than a million pages of documents.
The witnesses — ranging from many of Trump’s closest aides to law enforcement to some of the rioters themselves — detailed Trump’s “premeditated” actions in the weeks ahead of the attack and how his wide-ranging efforts to overturn his defeat directly influenced those who brutally pushed past the police and smashed through the windows and doors of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.

The central cause was “one man,” the report says: Trump.

The insurrection gravely threatened democracy and “put the lives of American lawmakers at risk,” the bipartisan nine-member panel concluded, offering a definitive account of a dark chapter in modern American history. It functions not only as a compendium of the most dramatic moments of testimony from months of hearings, but also as a document that is to be preserved as a warning for future generations.

In a series of recommendations, the seven Democrats and two Republicans on the committee suggest that Congress consider barring Trump from holding future office. The findings should be a “clarion call to all Americans: to vigilantly guard our Democracy and to give our vote only to those dutiful in their defense of our Constitution,” says House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in a foreword to the report.
