Must be grinding the lefty media gears to have to report this.
Vladimir Putin is uncommonly perceptive, you know. It IS a political persecution, as the persons being charged are almost uniformly those who were NOT rioting. Those who were instigating the swarm over the balustrades and walls of the Capitol were agents provocateurs, sympathetic to if not part of BLM/Antifa, dressed in what were apparently the kind of clothing and carrying flags indicating apparent support of Trump. Yet not one has been charged.
And Nancy Pelosi knew they were coming.
