Well after dark on January 5, 2021—just 15 hours before an insurrection against the United States government incited by the President of the United States—Nebraska Republican Charles W. Herbster, at the time the National Chairman of the Agriculture and Rural Advisory Committee for the Trump administration, attended a private meeting of Trump family members, Trump administration officials, Trump campaign advisers, January 6 organizers, and at least one member of the United States Senate at Trump International Hotel in Washington.
Abramson says Herbster says those present were Don Junior, Eric, Michael Flynn, Peter Navarro, Corey Lewandowski, David Bossie, Adam Piper, executive director of the Republican Attorneys General Association, and Alabama Senator Tommy Tuberville. Your basic nightmare evening, in short.
According to research by political strategist and regular CNN, MSNBC, The Hill, CBS, and Fox News contributor Cheri Jacobus, Txtwire CEO Daniel Beck claims he was at the January 5 meeting also, and that additional attendees at the gathering included the following three people:
Giuliani, Kimberly Guilfoyle, and the My Pillow guy. There’s a photo of some jerks in maga hats in front of the hotel.
There’s also a screenshot of Herbster’s Facebook post bragging about their plans.
“Faithful servants of freedom” – Eric and Junior Trump, Michael Flynn, Rudy Giuliani. Right.
So were they there to plot the insurrection? I don’t know. I hope the DoJ is looking carefully.

Abramson points out that there was a good chance that Trump was on speaker phone during this meeting, and/or, as Giuliani was there, was immediately briefed by him on the meetings’s highlights.
Strange how the prayers alone are not enough. It’s not enough to pray that members of Congress have a change of heart, it turns out you have to march in and scare the shit out of them to get them to do your bidding. Strange how failure to do the latter demonstrates the inefficacy of the prayers. Just like extreme Islamists, they were forced to turn to action in the real world to get things done. Or not, as the case may be.
If it was a conspiracy, this mob apparently could not organise a fly plague in a shithouse.
March in and kill them. Some of those people were more than willing to kill some senators and representatives. It was way too close.
Sadly, I don’t think that applies to the Trump kids.
It could apply to Marjorie Taylor Greene though.
Tubberville too. And perhaps Hawley and Cruz.
