The media is portraying it as all the guilty votes came from the democratic party, and all the non-guilty votes came from the republican party. Is this true, or is that just the media?

What media are you referring to?  All of the media accounts that I have read also cite the names of the Republicans who joined the Democrats in voting for a "Guilty" verdict.

But then, I do not read much right-wing tabloid propaganda, either.

Wrong.

CNN was one of the first REAL news media outlets to report the actual vote count.

You should really learn to back up your claims with facts.

Oh okay I will do that next time, thanks.

It was mentioned on here before, that Trump should have been charged with the assaults and killings that happened as a result of the riot. But other people who insited riots in the US, are not charged with insitement, or the crimes that resulted from it, so if the government is not going to charge others with it, would it be expected to charge Trump with that then?

Where are you getting all of this? How do you know, for example, that DC or the Justice Department won't charge Trump for the incitement of the Jan 6 riot? Who else should be charged?

That lying braggart in the wheelchair for one should be charged, I'd think. Along with Hally (spelling?), Cruz before he fled to Mexico, SS Den Mother Greene, and quite a few others who had addressed the lynch mob.

Oh well there are riots that have been insited all over the US in the last year it seemed, yet it seemed that the people who insite it are not charged so much, compared to the actual rioters.

7 Republicans voted for conviction. 43 Republicans voted for acquittal.

All 50 Democrats voted for conviction.

Oh okay thanks, for the information. It seems that there is a bias there when one group all votes to convict and the majority of another group votes to acquit.
