looks like the dude in the silly hat got arrested. He was charged with knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful authority, and with violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds.

I think two others have been identified,indicted and arrested so far. More may be forthcoming. I want to say the other two are the dude with his feet on Pelosi's desk, and the one posing for pics carrying around the podium. But they could be two other guys. Some times it is hard to tell all of them apart.

Last night on the news they said something about these criminal idiots planning another attack on Jan 17th. What is going on that day ? I know the swearing in is on the 20th, but what is the 17th doing in there ?

"Free Bird"

To: Donald "I wish I was a dictator" Trump

From: The USA

Bye Bye Donnie





Some other options might be: "Saturday Night Special", "That Smell" and/or "Needle and the Spoon"... but I'm trying to be a more positive person for 2021.

Jan 17th doesn't seems to be special for any particular reason.

Who knows... maybe it is some QAnon code for "the storm"...

its the weekend before. I think the hope is to hit multiple places simultaneously at a time that is not as well staffed.

Also so recommendations going out that LEO's request "vacation time" either to join in the protest, or just not be on duty to do their jobs.

A few Capital Hill Officers are reporting of duty officers from around the country were in among the rioters and trying to flash badges to gain access.

and not to be all conspiracy theory... but if s*** goes down before the inauguration the idea is maybe martial law or something can be done and the transfer of power won't happen. The idea is that the rioters will be protected and pardoned so its worth it if they win.

Its not a protest, or voicing of complaints against a government so much as take over attempt, by any means necessary. They already beat one officer to death with a fire extinguisher and they thought they were going to get away with it. (for the most part they have-- there was no where near the riot response seen at other times, and even the arrests have been lingering and minimal....nothing at the crime scene, everyone was allowed to comfortably go home, many times, home across the country.)

A second attempt is going to be escalate and be more aggressive.

If Pence pulls the 25th, he will have raised the price on his head.

Pence is probably hoping for some way to get back in Trump's good graces.

That is the way Jeff Sessions was... it is the way Lindsey Graham continues to be...

There is no doubt in my mind that Pence is crying himself to sleep at night... you just can't pray it away when you sell your soul.

Pence is an absolute idiot. Trump threw him to the wolves by making his cult think Pence had some ability to throw out the election results (he did not) and they were looking for Pence to hang him. And yet, Pence still has not been a man and stood up to do the right thing.

I can not wait for all of these corrupt boot lickers to be a distant memory.

It's never mattered which face America wore: if you're not born wealthy you are in Hell anyway.

Money is America's first and foremost focus; not 'Liberty'
You have Liberty to give your blood, sweat and tears to a system that gives little back outside passive aggression.

Capitalism enabled the rise of the middle class. This led to the American revolution (financed by wealthy colonists with help from France) and the end of empires. Russian literature from the turn of the 19th/20th century ( Death of Ivan Illych and Brothers Karamazov for example) is about this.Today the empowerment of minorities in the US if facilitated by the same system. Tribal governments building casinos and businesses and black owned businesses help them attain better education rates and buying power. It causes consternation among racists who feel threatened by them. No wonder socialism is taught in schools as if it is anything less than a way to hide tyranny.
