We wish, but nothing will happen to the real insurrectionists.
At least not in this life.
Let’s hope it becomes publilcly known.
Yes but this still doesn’t excuse the stupid goobers who went and gave Pelousy and the dems exactly what they wanted.
But DJT will still be convicted by a DC jury. Of course this info may make it easier for an appeals court to overturn the conviction.
It appears that stupid goobers infiltrate every group, if you know what I mean.
What is constantly overlooked is that the legislature has no Constitutional authority to have a law enforcement arm, most especially a 'riot police'. We have tolerated the Capitol Police as a sort of 'hospitality' police with some limited enforcement authority.
Pelosi had grand ideas however. After her riot police gassed and clubbed innocent citizens, even the elderly, and killed two or three people (without any consequences), she announced her intention to use an arm of her Capitol Police as a counter-intelligence operatives! She intended to start with Florida and California, surveilling potential anti government protesters. That is a bit the same way the Nazi SS came into being and grew - as protecters of the party government officials.
I contacted Gov. DeSantis and alerted him to this gross unconstitutional abuse of police powers; he immediately announced his intent to block such a move.
Except it wasn’t the “stupid goobers” that caused the trouble. It was antifa and the feds. Try to keep up so no one will think you are a stupid goober.
Pelosi’s Coup! I’ve been calling it that from the start.
I’d bet anything that Nanzi called Mayor Bowser and told her in no uncertain terms that she should not sign off on bringing in the NG.
Too late!
Can we get the national guard to arrest all of the democrats who pulled this sham off on America?
I wish.
WTF have they been doing for THREE DAMN YEARS?????
👍
BTTT
They are claiming General Charles Flynn, Mike Flynn’s brother, intentionally blocked deployment of military assets including the DC National Guard during the “insurrection.”
I think this discussion brings us back to the summer of 1932, and the Bonus-Army situation in DC....with the final answer being that DC police could not handle the mess, and the US Army (not the Guard/reserve) were detailed to bully the crowd into leaving.
There’s never been a full accounting of who funded the Bonus Army existence for almost 2 years, or the amount of blame dumped on Hoover for the order.
Fascinating! I remember some of this history, but it fades from memory - well before my time. Once I read the linked Wiki article I remembered the reported 'communist' involvement in the affair. If you like, read the Wiki article and comment on its accuracy from your perspective.
It is hard for my WWII generation, taught to fear (Stalin's) communism and nuclear conflict, to understand the lure of communism in the '30s and the Great Depression - Woody Guthrie and all of that. Of course FDR's Administration was riddled with communists and in the post WWII era the 'leaking' of nuclear secrets to Stalin's regime. During the war Stalin and Russia were allies of ours.
The same communist sympathy manifested in Britain with the Philby, Burgess and McClean betrayal of the Crown.
Fascinating times and the public's growing awareness of espionage in the Cold War. Also the names of WWII hero generals - MacArthur, Patton and Eisenhower - in the Bogus Army affair!
Checked to see if FR keywords pelosiscoup added.
“It is hard for my WWII generation...” 😬 “Post-WWII generation...” 🤗
