From a friend of mine with some common sense... Gov't needs to be uniform across the board.
Not punish these clowns bdly, while covering for BLM rioters (much more violence).
All retards IMO...
--
You can't be serious. An attempt to overthrow the govt LOL
Listen, Trump supporters are all well known to value the 2nd amendment. Did you see a single supporter pull a gun (like BLM and Antifa riots)
This is and was a false flag and a complete joke
The people who physically attacked Police should be arrested and charged yes
Those who were invited in and tresspassed should not be arrested
Those who stole should be arrested
But the facts are these people are being held minus bail, and given far higher charges then they deserved.
The prosecutors in the actual riots across the Nation dropped charges on people and KamalaToe and the Dems bailed out BLM and Antifa.
I'm sorry that you are seeing up as down, and right as wrong. The Jan 6th capitol tresspassing was a total sham.
Notice the Police officer that shot Ashley is also in hiding and his record came out and demonstrated abuses in the past. Guess who tried to hide it? The dems.
Pelosi was offered more security for Jan 6th at the Capitol and she turned it down
Bc they staged this and wanted it to happen to blame Trump supporters.
It's clear as day to literally anyone who "looks"
-
The Pelosi angle is the most intriguing.
If she really did rebuff multiple attempts at increased security, then there should be penalties.
Will it even get "investigated"?
-
I don't give one FUCK about the "riot." WHEN IS CHINA GOING TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR MAKING A WEAK ASS BIO-WEAPON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gaetz & Greene Run Out Of Press Conference By Whistling Protesters
By Caleb Newton -July 27, 2021
At a Tuesday press conference, Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) faced a protest presence intense enough that it led to an abrupt end to the proceedings, after which Gaetz and Greene swiftly left the premises. An individual blowing a whistle appears to have been among the first to show up in opposition to Gaetz, Greene, and their allies who were present, while soon after, a group of demonstrators with signs moved closer to the scene. One of the signs called the January riot at the Capitol an “inside job,” reflecting the role of election integrity lies spread by certain Republican leaders in inspiring the violence.
The attempted press conference was unfolding outside of the Department of Justice in D.C. Notably, Gaetz has been under investigation by that very department for his potential involvement in child sex trafficking. Also, funnily enough — just moments before Greene, Gaetz, and the others abandoned the attempted press conference, Greene proclaimed that she and her cohorts were “not deterred” and “will not back down.” As it turns out, they actually would back down, at least in this instance. Check out footage of the moment when the press conference fell apart on Tuesday below:
The press conference that Gaetz attempted to hold alongside Greene and others featured complaints from those present about the response to the January riot at the Capitol. At one point, for instance, Greene alleged that intelligence agents “knew… that there were threats of violence,” although it’s bizarre — to say the least — to somehow blame authorities for failing to preemptively curtail an unprecedented event in American history. There have been direct accusations from certain Republicans that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) was somehow at fault for failing to appropriately secure the Capitol ahead of what happened — but the “Speaker of the House is not in charge of Capitol security,” CNN bluntly notes. These Republicans claiming otherwise are not speaking truthfully — they’re just wielding conspiracy theories.

Phils agree to Tyler Anderson deal (sources)

PHILADELPHIA -- The Phillies are getting some badly needed starting pitching help before Friday’s Trade Deadline.
Multiple sources told MLB.com on Tuesday afternoon that the Phillies have agreed to a trade for Pirates left-hander Tyler Anderson, who is 5-8 with a 4.35 ERA in 18 starts. Pittsburgh is set to acquire right-hander Cristian Hernandez, who is the Phillies' No. 29-ranked prospect according to MLB Pipeline, and catcher Abrahan Gutierrez. Both are Low-A players.
The teams haven't confirmed a deal, which is pending physicals.
Anderson, who has pitched five or more innings in each of his 18 starts this season, was scheduled to start Tuesday night for the Pirates, but he was scratched, Pittsburgh manager Derek Shelton told reporters.
Other teams like the Mets were also reported to have been interested in Anderson.

Wanted Lancaster County man with ties to GOP lawmaker Doug Mastriano arrested on Capitol riot charges
Samuel Lazar, a 37-year-old from Ephrata known to the FBI as Suspect 275 and to amateur online sleuths by the moniker "Face Paint Blowhard," faces charges tied to the Jan. 6 deadly insurrection.
Samuel Lazar, 37, of Ephrata, is pictured shouting to the crowds outside the Capitol in Washington on Jan. 6.

Updated Jul 27, 2021
If there were any doubts about the role Samuel Lazar played during the Jan. 6 storming of the U.S. Capitol, the Lancaster County man cleared them up within hours of the attack.
He posted to Facebook: “There’s a time for war. Our constitution allows us to abolish our [government] and install a new one in [its] place.” And in a video shared on Twitter, while the building was still being cleared, Lazar — dressed in a tactical vest and goggles, camouflage face paint melting down his face — boasted of his mettle while skirmishing with police.
“They maced us … so we maced ‘em right the f — back,” he said. “I was right at the front, on the tip of the spear.”
And yet in the six months that followed — even as he appeared on the FBI’s list of most wanted insurrection suspects, posed for photos with prominent Pennsylvania GOP candidates like 2022 gubernatorial hopeful Doug Mastriano, and featured in more videos that surfaced from the insurrection including one depicting him using a giant Trump campaign sign as a battering ram to break through police lines — Lazar remained free.

That changed Tuesday as federal authorities in Washington announced they had arrested the self-described 37-year-old entrepreneur from Ephrata on charges of assaulting officers and signaled their intention to keep him in jail until trial.

Lazar had emerged as one of the chief targets of the online community of amateur sleuths that has worked to identify riot participants, who had dubbed him with the moniker “Face Paint Blowhard” due to the camo makeup he wore that day.
But the internet sedition hunters had grown increasingly frustrated with the apparent impunity Lazar seemed to enjoy for months after they had first ID'd him from his social media postings.
ADVERTISEMENT
In that time, Lazar appeared unapologetic, attending right-wing political rallies as recently as last month and fund-raisers for Mastriano, a state senator, one of Pennsylvania’s most prominent election deniers, and a figure widely seen as a contender in the GOP primary for governor in 2022.
The FBI declined to comment Tuesday on its delay in charging Lazar. But officials have previously cited the overwhelming number of leads they are sorting through in their efforts to track down those who participated in the attack — efforts that have so far led to the arrest of more than 550 people, including more than 50 from Pennsylvania.
The complaint unsealed Tuesday revealed that agents had information pointing to Lazar as a riot suspect even before the online sedition hunter community identified him as one of the FBI’s most wanted suspects in April.

As early as March 2, it said, a tipster who claimed to have known Lazar for 28 years pointed investigators to Lazar’s Facebook page, where he chronicled his activities during the riot.
There, Lazar had posted a video he shot of himself in Washington early on the morning of Jan. 6.
ADVERTISEMENT
“It’s going to be an eventful day,” he said. “Donald Trump is going to shock the world. We’re ready for war, if needed.”
He later removed many of the incriminating posts after the local news site LancasterOnline.com used them to identify him as one of the rioters in a story published four days after the attack.
In building their case, prosecutors appear to have relied primarily on the dozens of other videos from that day that have surfaced on social media showing Lazar breaking down barricades, urging the mob on with a megaphone, and ripping a bike rack away from an officer attempting to use it as a shield.
In one cited in his charging documents, Lazar is seen spraying what appears to be pepper spray at officers.

“Hang the mother—ers!” he shouts to the nearby crowd, encouraging others to join in.

It was that video, in part, that led to uncomfortable questions for Mastriano when photos surfaced of him smiling with his arm around Lazar at a May fund-raiser in Chambersburg in which Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani was a featured guest.
Mastriano later denied knowing who Lazar was.

“Why would you assume that every politician who takes a picture with someone at an event automatically knows who they are or agrees with what they believe?” the senator asked in a statement.

But the same group of online sleuths that first identified Lazar and uncovered the fund-raiser photos responded by finding at least half a dozen other images of the two men photographed together during earlier events — including a Nov. 25 state Senate hearing in Gettysburg, where Mastriano first emerged as one of the primary proponents of Trump’s stolen election lies.
Mastriano’s campaign spent thousands of dollars chartering buses to Washington for Trump supporters on Jan. 6. And despite the Franklin County Republican’s public condemnation of the riot and claim that he left as soon as violence erupted, videos have since surfaced that appear to show him passing through police barricades near people brawling with police.
Lazar’s siblings have since decried the senator’s efforts to distance himself on Facebook and claimed in a video that Mastriano denied knowing the family of longtime supporters for political reasons.
Samuel Lazar — aka FBI Capitol suspect no. 275 — was essentially a Mastriano groupie. His family has a cult-like devotion to Mastriano, who boosted his political career on the Big Lie. #facepaintblowhard https://t.co/TW6T8rXLmR pic.twitter.com/bjs4DKnZda

As recently as June 5, the senator was again photographed in proximity to Lazar at a Reopen Pennsylvania rally in Pittsburgh.
Two days after that event, court filings say, a local police officer who had past personal contact with Lazar again reported his involvement in the Capitol riot to investigators — the identification that appeared to seal the FBI’s case against him.
He now faces charges including assaulting police and obstruction of law enforcement during a civil disorder, the most serious of which could send him to prison for up to 20 years.
During a brief court hearing Tuesday, Lazar said he intends to dispute the charges and agreed to remain in custody until a hearing can be held in Washington on whether he should be released pending trial.

Horrified, Katie told her grandmother that 2 people nearly 100 years old having sex would surely be asking for trouble. "Oh no, my dear," replied granny. "Many years ago, realizing our advanced age, we figured out the best time to do it was when the church bells would start to ring. It was just the right rhythm. Nice and slow and even. Nothing too strenuous, simply in on the Ding and out on the Dong." She paused to wipe away a tear, and continued, "He'd still be alive if the ice cream truck hadn't come along."
If you do not laugh at this, then you are seriously depressed,
make a doctor's appointment.
I will never hear church bells ringing again without smiling. LIGHTEN UP EVERYBODY YOU'LL LIVE LONGER. ;D

Let Me Tell You a Fairy Tale..."
by Harry B. Paschall
managing editor
The menace of homosexual magazines is more serious than ever before, and the cause of clean physical culture is threatened by peddlers of pornography
Above are a few typical examples of the so-called Body Beautiful magazines aimed at the profitable homosexual trade. Such publications have infiltrated the bodybuiding field in recent years, contributing to juvenile delinquency and debauchery.
A FEW DAYS AGO, we received a letter from a police officer in New Jersey who complained that he could not buy Strength and Health in his town because all so-called "mucle magaizines" were barred from the newsstands through action of local people working in cooperation with The League of Decency, a Catholic Organization with headquarters in Chicago, Illinois.
The officer was perturbed over the situation because he felt that Strength and Health offered wholesome advice and a healthful hobby for young boys through weightlifting and weight-training. He thought the Leauge of Decency was hurting its own purpose by barring an influence for good in the comunity. We agree with him, but we can also understand the attitude of the League for it is quite natural to consider all the apples in a barrel bad if those on the top are rotten. We have written the League officials asking them to carefully read our magazine and decide for themselves if there is objectionable material in our pages.
If you will walk into your neighborhood newsdealer's you can see for yourself the type of magazine that is causing censorship. In the past several years a flood of undersized booklets featuring the male physique in all stages of nudity have appeared. We show a few of these, picked at random, in the accompanying photograph. [note: the ones above are not the exact same issues as in the S&H article - TMF] Under the guise of wholesome physical culture, these dirtly little books are aimed directly at a very profitable market, the homosexual or "fairy" trade. They are on the stands for one reason only - to make a profit. Circulation figures show they do just that, because they outsell the regular physical culture journals, and are so cheap to print, that the profit is obvious.
While their ciruclation figures are impressive, another factor enters into their large apparent sale. They are so small they can easily be slipped into a pocket by youngsters who frequent the magainze racks, and thus carried out without payment at all. Of course this does not bother either the publisher or the distributor, since the dealer must pay for the magaine whether he actually sells it or not. How much the average store which deals in magazines loses on this type of publication is uncertain, but in our judgment, the type of person who reads such trash is very apt to be dishonest enough to steal anything in sight.
These magazines pretend to offer physical training advice, but they haven't the space to do so. They are simply inteded to attract the attention of lovers of the male physique, and unfortunately, this includes a sizable number of misguided young bodybuilders whose intentions are good. The fact that they are aimed at the homo trade seems to escape these readers. Even the fact that they feature advertising by photographers known to cater to the "swish" trade, seems to leave the more normal bodybuilders unimpressed. We have even heard men high in the ranks of weightlifting and weight-traning condone these publications by saying they are harmless, and that all publicity is good publicity. Many young fellows who do not know the score actually submit photographs to these publications in the hope they will get publicity for their fine physiques.
There is a large group of so called bodybuilders in the country who simply close their eyes whenever this homo racket is mentioned. They seem to think that if they keep their eyes and their minds closed, the slimy creature will go away. But it won't. When a venoumous reptile comes into your house you have to crush it or take the chance of being poisoned.
When the situation has reached a point where we cannot sell a clean magazine because of these dirty publications, we think something should be done about it. Other publishers continue to take this filthy money, and to cater to the immoral perverts who make these indecent pictures. Whenever you see a magazine that carries even ONE photographer's advertisement featuring male photos, you know you are dealing with people without moral principles of any sort. These are the people who are killing a clean and wholesome sport.
What can we do about it ? One thing sure - we are not going to suffer in silence. We suggest, for one thing, that the AAU bar from competition in any athletic event any person whose photo has appeared in one of these trashy magazines. It is these so-called bodybuilders who have encouraged this disgracefull situation by offering their photographs for use in stimulating a vicicious trade. Some of these young men have cause to be proud of their bodies, because, in many cases, they built them from weakness to superb strength and health. But they certainly cannot understand the true facts -- that these pictures are now being exposed to the droolings of homosexuals, and that their appearance in these books encourages other young and innocent boys to do likewise.
The police officer who wrote us about this situation tells about the efforts of the Boys Clubs and PAL (Police Athletic Association) to rescue underprivileged boys from the temptations of the slums, and he points out that weightlifting in such clubs have proven to be a splendid antidote against evil influences that contribute to juvenile delinquency. Yet the magazine stand in most communities stand free and open with this type of literature. Some time ago, the Comic Book Industry was forced to clean up the dirt in their publications. When are we going to do this in the field of physical training ?
What respect can anyone have for a man or boy caught with one of these books in his hands ? And why should Strength and Health suffer for the crimes of others ?
Note: The hypocrisy of this is that 1) ads for beefcake photos had been running in the back of Strength & Health and Iron Man for years and 2) the major photographers of beefcake pictures were the same photographers used in the "legitimate" muscle magazines. In fact, the majority of photos published in the first 10-15 years of Strength & Health were nudes with g-strings or posing shorts drawn in.
Iron Grapevine
Strength and Health, September 1957, page 49
OUR recent article Let Me Tell You a Fairy Tale (June issue) about the homo magazines has stirred up a tremendous amount of talk, pro and con - but mostly pro. We will print a number of these letters in our next issue. But to follow up on this story we herewith print a news items from the New York Times dated April 29, 1957:
Magazines Indicted for Indeceny
The Union County grand jury today returned indictments against the publishers and distributors of seven national magazines on charges of conspiracy to sell indecent literature. The true bills are the first of their kind in New Jersey, according to Prosecutor H. Russell Morss, Jr.
Consiracy is a misdemeanor punishable by up to three years in state prison and a $1,000 fine. Among the publishers indicted was Body Beautiful Publications, Inc. (Wonderful Weedy)
We are not in favor of censorship as a rule, and we believe in the fundamental freedom of the press, but there are certain cheap publishers who will stoop to anything to make money, even the perversion of children. It is about time some action is taken to stop this sort of indecency.
It is an odd twist of fate that at practically the same time the York Chamber of Commerce was honoring the York Barbell Club and Bob Hoffman with a testimonial plaque, the Union County Grand Jury (where the Weedy enterprises are located) was indicting Mr. Wonderful for consiracy to sell indecent literature. Perhaps the Mills of the Gods grind slowly but they grind exceeding small.
Weedy and his group of unscrupulous hirelings have been spouting for a long time about their idealism and how they were martyrs to the cause of pure, unsullied bodybuilding. They write letters to credulous columnists like Dan Parker (who should know better), of the N.Y. Mirror, telling how Bob Hoffman is the big, bad wolf who runs A.A.U. weightlifting to suit himself. They fail to bring into the open the fact that they themselves are mainly engaged in the business of selling dirty pictures and dirty magazines.
Anyone who takes one look at their current publications, such as Jem, and their small, dirty homo books Body Beautiful, and Adonis, cannot fail to see the category into which such literature falls. Indecency is a mild word for it. Pornography is better.
The Weedy books cannot be sold in their own home city. They have been banned by the League of Decency. Yet thousands of credulous lads, not yet dry behind the ears, take for truth the wild mouthings of these imitation experts, when they read the sensational articles in their trashy magazines.
Perhaps their long career of fooling some of the people some of the time is drawing to a close. Perhaps the Great Imitator (he has recently copied the labels of Hoffman's Hi-Proteen products so closely they can almost be sold as the real McCoy) may be forced by public opinion and the law to go back to his original slum hideway, where he and his pals can still make a living peddling French postcards. Apparently you can take a kike out of the slums, but you can never take the slums out of the kike.
Strength and Health, October 1957, p 61
Iron Grapevine
Weedy and Obscenity... The case against Wonderful Weedy's Body Beautiful publications for conspiracy to distribute indecent literature has not yet come to trial. They were indicted by the Union County (NJ) Grand Jury late in April.
However we are happy to report that Strength & Health has been taken off the list of objectionable magazines by The National Office for Decent Literature, and is available on newsstands in Weedy's home county. All other muscle mags, and all the tiny slimy homo books are still barred.
Barton Horvath, Weedy's chief hatchet man for years, has deserted Mr. Wonderful and now is puttingout his own homo-pornographic booklet, Muscle Sculpture This bird was hauled in some years ago on a rap of selling nude photos. His new classic, featuring pretty boys in and out of G-strings, is made to order for the swish trade. We gently warn unwary bodybuilders about sending photos to such publications, because you, too, may wind up in court . . . and you will be barred from competing in any sanctioned AAU physique contest, such as the Mr. America competition. You have nothing to gain and everything to lose.
Strength and Health, November1957, p 54
Iron Grapevine
APOLOGY . . . in the September Grapevine a sentence was printed that led several readers to infer that it was of an anti-semitic nature. We are sincerely sorry that this occurred because it had been blue-pencilled from the galley proofs, and was included only because of an error by the printers. Strength and Health stands for fair play for everyone, regardless of race or religion, and we will not intentionally print anything that is offensive to anyone. Our policy is to tell the truth at all times about sensible physical training without bias and without fear or favor. This policy also guarentees that whenever we make a mistake, we will promptly admit it.
Strength & Health, May 1961, page 15
Thought and Afterthoughts
Exit "Vim" & "Gym"
A while ago I reported that there must have been a dozen or so of those dirty little queer magazines for homosexuals cluttering up the nation's news racks. Court action eradiated several of them, as has also been reported to you, but does that mean the plague is lessened? Not sos' you could see - the other day in New York City I counted 20 different titles of this type displayed on a tiny corner newsstand! Apparently, like Hydra, every time one of these rags gets chopped down, two spring up to take it's place. But in many areas organized effort is being made to remove this blight from public display. National publicity was given recently to the action of a Fedral grand jury in Chicago which indicted 51 men for sending or conspiring to send obscene material through the mails. The scheme revolved around "pen-pal" clubs created by the editors of two now defunct queer books, Vim and Gym. (Incidentally, don't confuse this version of Vim with the fine little magazine of the same name published by Roger Eells 20 or so years ago.) "The return of the indictments," announced U.S. District Attorney Robert Tieken, "culminates an intensive six-month investigation by postal inspectors and the Federal grand jury of the Adonis Male Club and the International Body Culture Assocation, who solicited members by means of free advertising in the male magazines (physique-muscle display type) 'Vim' and 'Gym' ... We may not be able to stop this sort of thing," Tieken said, "but we are determined to get it out of our educational system where the youth of Ameirca is involved." Parents should be particularly alert to spot these questionable publications, which are doing so much to drag legitimate physical culture into the gutter. If youfind a queer book on your son's desk, burn it -and set him straight on the facts of life. Pornography is the spawning bed from wich springs forth much of our appalling juvenile crime. Help to fight it by doing what you can to chase filth off the magazine rack.

Letters From Readers
Innocent Victim
Dear Bob,
Revulsion and anger have motivated me to write this letter. I was down at the local paper store today buying the latest copy of my favorite magazine, Strength & Health, when I ran across a copy of Joe Weider's latest queer sheet, Demi-Gods. What a sickening magazine! It is possible for the male form to possess a rugged beauty that transcends the ages: take, for instance, the Laocoon, or more recently, Eugen Sandow. Both possess a beauty that can hardly be said to be homosexually inspired. But Demi-Gods does not deal in masculine beauty; it markets perversion. Decidely effeminate "men" (if thats what they can be called) are pictured in poses which were formerly the right of womanhood only. "Cute" little beddy-bye inviations caption the filth. And whose picture to I find opposite of these mascara-ed beauties? Ron Lacy's, that's whose. My opinion of Mr. Lacy dropped but fast. This is what hurts the iron game the most, when a man of renown, such as mr. Lacy, allows his picture to be printed in some sodomite putrefaction like Demi-Gods.
Sincerely yours,
Myles A MacVane
Westport, Conn.
We agree with Mr. MacVane that the Weider publication Demi-Gods (along with its sister magazine The Young Pysique) sets a new low in the sorid world of the queer books. In all fairness to Ron Lacy, we would wager anything that he was unaware that photographs of him were being published in Demi-Gods and that he never signed a releease authorizing publication of his photos in such publications. Hundreds of photos of Ron and other top bodybuilders are taken during or after contests and exhibitions by scores of photographers, and although every effort is made by promoters of A.A.U. sanctioned contests to exclude photographers who are known to work for and submit photographs to questionable publishers, these bodybuidlers have no control over the disposition and use of such photos. By the time they learn, their their regret, that their photos have appeared in unauthorized publications, they have no recourse other than legal action, and Lacy, like most of the Mr. Americas, could never afford the expensive legal fees involved in pursuing this course. He is an innocent victim of an unscrupulous practice. Ed.

And LOL @ 'Weedy' ;D Loving these hostile historical columns funk - thanks again 8)
