PLEASE shut up, Ted Nugent

The only reason I’m posting this is to shine a very bright light on the lies spread and ignorance displayed by celebrities who really should know better.

Ted Nugent, who’s about as far to right as they come, is one of those people who believe that whatever happened at the US Capitol on January 6 and nothing to do with Donald Trump or his supporters. Blabbermouth transcribed this from a June 7 YouTube livestream.

“We know that the January 6th event at the Capitol in Washington, D.C., those weren’t Trump supporters destroying stuff and breaking windows and being vandals. Those were Antifa and Black Lives Matter wearing Trump shirts and hats. I wanna be on record right now for that. Insurrection my ass.

“So let me make it clear: January 6th wasn’t an insurrection. Those were terrorists, like Black Lives Matter and Antifa dressed in Donald Trump shirts doing all the damage. The real Trump supporters were conservatives that believe in God, family, country, law and order trying to stop them. And I would ask… So why were the cops waving them in? And here’s the question America demands an answer to: who was the cop that shot the Navy vet? Was it Navy or Air Force? It doesn’t matter, ’cause warriors of the military are all heroes and warriors anyhow. I wanna know the cop’s name that shot the lady, and I wanna know what’s gonna happen to him.”

Oy. ‘Murica.

  • I am not a Nugent fan but, I mean, there is video of people changing clothes into Trump supporter clothes. And not just a few people either. But hey, keep watching CNN for your main source of news ….

      • Mr Brad, I voted for Biden. But I can also critically think and take views and evidence no matter the side. Of course there were majority Trump supporters but that doesn’t exclude the fact that were outside agitators just like every protest. I’m sure if you know how to use the internet you can find this info, but that may mean leaving your comfort zone of beliefs that make you feel safe.
