    Entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy battled with CNN's Abby Phillip during a Wednesday night town hall on the network over remarks that he has made about the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C.

    Phillip asked Ramaswamy about remarks that he made at the most recent Republican presidential primary debate when he suggested that the riot was an inside job.

    "The next day, Capitol rioter Alan Hostetter highlighted your comments at his sentencing," she said. "He is going to prison for 11 years. Hostetter threatened members of Congress. He brought a hatchet, knives, pepper spray, stun batons, tactical gear to the U.S. Capitol."

    "Are you concerned that a convicted felon like that is now promoting your comments in court?" she asked.

    Ramaswamy responded by saying that before he became a political candidate, he was "just consuming passive media," and that in the past, he would have labeled any talk about January 6 being "an inside job" as "crazy talk, fringe conspiracy theory nonsense."

    "I can tell you now, having gone somewhat deep in this, it's not," he said. "I mean, the reality is this. We do have a government, first of all, we have technology, that has lied to us systematically over the last several years about the origin of COVID-19, about the Hunter Biden laptop that we were told was false by 51 CIA experts and otherwise, before we now know that it was true."

    "You can go straight down the list, the Trump-Russia disinformation collusion hoax, all of it," he continued. "Now we come to January 6. The reality is, we know that there were federal law enforcement agents in that field. We don't know how many."

Considering what has happened to our Representative Republic since the corruptive orthodoxy that led to the tolerated abomination - The Russia Hoax - where felonies were perpetrated upon the American People by the creation of the Two Tiered Justice System, in the misnomer of "Social Justice:" Where do you stand on sustaining our constitutionally guaranteed freedoms in a society where injustice is chronically sanctioned by one political orthodoxy?
  I believe in a perfected society by employing a higher governmental authority to train the behavior of the public.
  The United States Constitution does not allow just a few freedoms, it guarantees ALL freedoms promised to Humankind by God.
  Just don't take away my Social Media.

  Demand real information, using real sources, backed up by facts.
  Promote real journalist entities only, and admonish those that prostitute their profession.
  We Democratic Socialists are doing just fine, thank-you, by promoting lies while having very little real knowledge about so much.
