What happened at the U.S. Capitol building on Jan. 6 was unprecedented and unacceptable. But Democrats seem to see it as an opportunity to vilify not just President Trump but every single person who has ever supported him....
But those men and women do not represent many of the millions of Republicans who voted for the president in 2016 and 2020.
Democrats would have you believe otherwise. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez argued last week that Republicans only “give a damn about white supremacy” and “preserving the social order and the mythology of whiteness.” Other congressional Democrats suggested Republican lawmakers were in on the plot to storm the Capitol. And this week, Rep.

They’re going to stage some ugly sh!t with the express purpose of putting the blame on Trump supporters. Every false flag incident is one more nail in the coffin for US.
Paging Captain Obvious.
No shit Captain Obvious Reporter!
Democrats couldn’t give less of a crap about the bill of rights or any other part of the constitution for that matter. They’ll do whatever they think they can get away with.
NawH?
Shocked, I tell you!
Imagine that!
Replace ‘are using’ with ‘started’.
I don’t want to live in a police state or under military government.
But let’s get our language correct.
The Bill of Rights is the First Ten Amendments, and I don’t see where it forbids armed forces in the Capital.
I now wonder if one of them fingered her to her killer.

“Ashli Babbit ... seems as if she was surrounded by ANTIFA agitators. I now wonder if one of them fingered her to her killer.”
She was the one they chose. My tagline.
Remember, when they smear one of us they are smearing all of us.
.
Of course they are, and they are OUTING Themselves as Un-American Tyrant-wannbees that there will be BACKLASH to which will sweep them from power.

This is an extension of the narrative they set with the play they produced in Charlottesville, patriots are dangerous extremists.
People who love America and the Constitution are the real threat.
suspension of the rights. Let’s look at these again, and you tell me how they work once we have a militarized system and not longer have a functioning government.

Do we know the name of the murderer yet??
There is nothing inherent in the presence of armed troops that strips citizenry of those rights, just like there is nothing inherent in the presence of police that strips anyone of those rights.
But we hand governance over to the armed troops (or the police) we inevitably lose those rights.
There is no indication that this is what will be happening.
