Ken Cuccinelli: Nancy Pelosi Had a Disturbing Request for What She Wanted the National Guard to Do
Red State.com ^ | January 22, 2021 | Nick Arama

Posted on 01/23/2021 6:18:29 AM PST by Kaslin

Just catching up to a crazy story from earlier in the week that’s pretty important not to skip over, giving all that has been going on with the National Guard.

Now, there were a lot of questions about the need of having such a massive buildup of 25,000 troops in Washington, D.C to protect the Capitol.

But apparently that wasn’t all that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) wanted, according to Ken Cuccinelli, the former Acting Deputy Homeland Security Secretary.

According to Cuccinelli, not only did Pelosi want all those troops, “a division,” to protect the Capitol, but she also wanted “crew-manned machine guns in Washington.” He said, “That was rejected because there’s simply no use for that in a security arrangement for a civilian undertaking. Just — so some of this has gone beyond any legitimate security need.” He meant crew-served vehicle borne machine guns, according to John Roberts.

Oh, my. Was she really envisioning gunning down Americans? Imagine if it hadn’t been someone like Cuccinelli with the good sense to refuse such a request. That’s crazy. But it says a lot, and none of it good about Nancy Pelosi. I’m also confused. Isn’t she against even semi-automatic rifles like AR-15s but now she’s cool with this? Or is it only when they aren’t being used to defend her? When they’re protecting her, any amount of force is cool, apparently.

Cuccinelli also made the point that Homeland Security wasn’t just about D.C., although of course they want to protect the Capitol.

“At the same time, where was this concern for the rest of America?” he asked. “But when their own butt was on the line, all of a sudden they want every troop and soldier they can find to protect them. And we’re perfectly happy to contribute to keeping them safe. That’s part of our goal and our job, but not at the sacrifice of the rest of America.”

“Congressmen aren’t more important than any other American,” Cuccinelli added. “And everyone in this country should be kept safe and that’s what the Department of Homeland Security has endeavored to do through this entire difficult year.”

Great point. Where was the concern from these same folks when regular citizens were being attacked, killed and burnt out with the BLM/Antifa riots? Their concern was sorely lacking. They never criticized BLM or Antifa by name. Democrats celebrated the BLM at their convention and Joe Biden even had the temerity to call Antifa “just an idea.” Democrats, including Pelosi, attacked President Donald Trump for daring to provide federal agents to protect the federal courthouse that was under nightly attack in Portland calling the federal agents “stormtroopers” in an insane attack.

Nancy’s favorite movie was “Dr. Zhivago”.

Pelosi is nervous as hell after what she saw Jan. 6th when patriots walked into their Capital and right into her office. She’s knows at any time, a few million more could descend upon DC and hang her upside down in the Village sq. ala Mussolini. Keep pushing Nancy

This buildup of military force, as well as the orchestrated “riot”, were all part of a devious Hollywood script, designed to be used as evidence in the fraudulent impeachment, and subsequent trial.
These people are devious, but not stupid. They created the storyline, hired the actors, and blamed the entire thing on the President, just to ban him from future political aspirations.

It’s so obvious that the mere thought of mowing down row on row of stinking deplorable Trump supporters makes Pelosi drool. She appears to be in the “criminally insane” mode of dementia.

Are the DC crowd and the press really pretending they don't know about the nightly attacks on our cities, towns, business' and homes, for over 8 months now? But then it comes to their place of business, oh then we need the troops? It is just infuriating, especially McConnell that has the opportunity to explain and defend R's and he does not.

How many rallies did Trump have just in 2020, some say 30-40 where thousands showed up, maybe over the course of five years of rallies, maybe 3- 5 million citizens attended them, never ONE riot or incident, wtf?

Ghandi.

Jallianwala Bagh massacre

The Jallianwala Bagh massacre, also known as the Amritsar massacre, took place on 13 April 1919, when Acting Brigadier-General Reginald Dyer ordered troops of the British Indian Army to fire their rifles into a crowd of unarmed Indian civilians[3] in Jallianwala Bagh, Amritsar, Punjab, killing at least 379 people and injuring over 1,200 other people.

In the movie they use an armored car with a machine gun, not sure of the accuracy of that. But I’m sure it would make Nancy wet.

The answer to the question was she FOR gunning down US citizens who were there to protest a stolen election and an illegitimate acting commissar? In a word, YES!!! Hell YES!!! She would have given the order herself if allowed, I can guarantee you.

Yep, she’s freakin’ out after what she saw Jan.6th. She thought she was untouchable, now she realizes at anytime patriots could swarm into DC, right into her office and hold her accountable and take her into custody. And incredibly, she keeps pushing for that by STILL demanding Trump be impeached even though he’s no longer in office.

Other than the Tx. And Fla. NG, don’t expect them to be leaving the capital anytime soon. The commies problem is the optics are terrible even if the commie media is covering....a basket of cookies ain’t gonna cut it.

100% believe that, after having stolen the election right out in the open.

Well, I don’t know how we do it at this point. I guess it starts with organizing but that supposes we have an organizER. And have you seen the majority of Americans lately? Most have not seen the inside of a gym since junior high and it shows. Badly.

I thought the Mayor of DC, Muriel Bowser, who made the request for crew served weapons. Maybe Pelosi, as well?

Somebody please explain. WHO called for these troops? Pelosi? Who authorized the occupation of DC?
The SOTH has powers to ask for armed services to be moved from place to place?
Did POTUS Trump ask for this? Did the Mayor of DC want this? Or did just Nancy arrange this kabuki theater?
I truly don’t know or understand who got the NG to DC.
