MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace Declares Trump 'Summoned a Mob to Kill His Vice President'
 [RedState] The last time I went after MNSBC’s Trump-loathing host Nicolle Wallace — her Orwellian suggestion that Republicans "must assert the truth before they’re allowed to share any other views" — she tweeted the link to my article, and mumbled something not-nice about me, "conservatives," and "liars." Welp, there she went again, and here I go again.As House managers laid out their case in the impeachment trial on Wednesday, they showed never-before-seen video of rioters inside the Capitol, some of which was more disturbing than any video of the riot I had previously seen. One such video showed Vice President Mike Pence being rushed by Secret Service agents down a staircase as rioters neared. Stacey Plaskett, a Democratic delegate from the Virgin Islands and one of the House impeachment managers, told senators: "They were within 100 feet of where the vice president was sheltering with his family, and they were just feet away from the doors of this chamber where many of you remained at that time." In another video, the crowd could be heard chanting "Hang Mike Pence! Hang Mike Pence!" Outside the Capitol, where makeshift gallows had been set up, others called out: "Bring out Pence!" One rioter taped a video, in which he said: "He’s a total treasonous pig!", as reported by The New York Times. Regardless of who was responsible for what, there were frightening moments inside the Capitol — at the hands of a mob intent on disrupting the conducting of a democratic process by a joint session of Congress. To deny that is to deny reality. Note: I’m not assigning blame; I’m merely suggesting that one can condemn the reality of what happened inside the U.S. Capitol without making an unsubstantiated politically-predisposed pronouncement of intent or sinister motive.
