A domestic terrorist?

Yes. Everyone who participated in January 6th is, by definition, one.

Not even remotely huge, some people in this country are just too obsessed with optics & civility. From the FBI:

>​Domestic terrorism: Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups to further ideological goals stemming from domestic influences, such as those of a political, religious, social, racial, or environmental nature.

There's no way you can look at January 6th and say, with a straight face, that it doesn't fit the bill. It was literally an attempted coup to overthrow the government because Lil' Donny was mad he still didn't win an election he tried so desperately to stack in his favor.

And before you start with the whataboutisms, because your comments scream that you would: BLM was not part of the riots and actively condemned them. Anyone with a brain knows they were thugs disconnected from the movement, using it as a cover and/or trying to paint them in a negative light...partially because it's been proven time and time again. Huge difference between them and these people who were actively plotting this, followed through, were proud of it, & bragged they were there.

These were all domestic terrorists. Stop being a domestic terrorist sympathizer.
