we all know that all republicans are not white supremists.

Yeah, but there's a half dozen of them somewhere in rooral West Virginia. According to Biden, those 6 bigoted people are a much larger threat to the nation than the 1,000+ riots that took place last year.

A 1,000 riots? Seems a tad high

"Their report states that more than 2,400 locations reported peaceful protests, while fewer than 220 reported “violent demonstrations.” The authors define violent demonstrations as including “acts targeting other individuals, property, businesses, other rioting groups or armed actors.” Their definition includes anything from “fighting back against police” to vandalism, property destruction looting, road-blocking using barricades, burning tires or other materials. In cities where protests did turn violent—these demonstrations are “largely confined to specific blocks,” the report says.
...
Still, many people continue to believe that Black Lives Matter protests are largely violent—contrary to the report’s findings. ACLED highlights a recent Morning Consult poll in which 42% of respondents believe “most protesters (associated with the BLM movement) are trying to incite violence or destroy property.” ACLED suggests this “disparity stems from political orientation and biased media framing… such as disproportionate coverage of violent demonstrations.”

What actual attempts to defraud an election sound like:

"All we need from the President [Zelensky] is to say, I'm gonna put an honest prosecutor in charge, he's gonna investigate and dig up the evidence, that presently exists and is there any other evidence about involvement of the 2016 election, and then the Biden thing has to be run out," Giuliani said, according to the audio. "... Somebody in Ukraine's gotta take that seriously."

I'd provide a link to the FoxNews coverage of it but it doesn't exist.

I'm not so sure. The parallel New York investigations (federal and state) appear to be steadily working their way up the pressure ladder.

I'll believe that there will be some consequences faced when I see it. Not saying it won't happen but this whole band of hoodlums and criminals seems to be avoiding significant consequences so far.
