The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Minnesota, led by Erica MacDonald, tweeted a statement early Thursday morning following the riot at the U.S. Capitol building. Her office announced its plan to prosecute Minnesotans “to the fullest extent of the law” if it can be verified that they took part in the “storming” of the Capitol.

Minnesota just jealous that Minnesotans are rioting in a State other than Minnesota.

Minnesota be like, “Hey, that’s my girl. She riots here or nowhere.”

Ha!! Yet these weasels NEVER ONCE gave a care to the hundreds of Antifa thugs on paid travel who actually burned/looted/destroyed major cities, across the country.

Talk about trying to intimidate honest, hard working people, who PAID THEIR OWN WAY, to their US Capitol.

How very Commie of them.

Did they prosecute the people who burned buildings, attacked innocents, and looted businesses during the summer democrat riots?

US Attorney saying this?

The rule of law, apparently, is broken. Where's that "Broken Arrow" meme from We Were Soldiers?

Either way they were going to do it capital incident or not..this was coming down the road with Biden and Harris and their swamp creatures leading the inquisition of Christians and Republicans. This hair on fire by both parties only escaladed the extremely evil left’s agenda. The Republican elites at the hill just slit their throat‘s. Without calming the waters and demanding an investigation to see why it happened etc they IMMEDIATELY jumped the shark and threw ALL the Republican under the bus! For that they will be consequences for them. Bastards couldn’t even calm the waters instead they jumped into the storm and agreed with the enemy. I have never seen so many effing cowards in my freaking life! I will never forget nor forgive! Be ready for your guns to be confiscated. We have to understand THERE IS NO TURNING BACK...we need to continue to stand up to those socialist BASTARDS!! If we fold we are cooked and our nation is done! DON’T SURRENDER...REMEMBER THE ALAMO ! they too were Outnumbered AND NEVER SURRENDERED!! DON’T let the mediapukes install fear WE MUST STICK TOGETHER!! Remember we are 75 FREAKIN MILLION PATRIOTS!! Don’t be like our spineless cowardly POS bastard Republican representatives at the hill! We WILL SURVIVE this!! This should really lit a Freakin fire under your butts ...remember the Kavanaugh hearings where Left wing extremist Bitches stormed the chamber and the mediaVomits called them heroes? What’s wrong with this damn picture! Do not let up! FIGHT!!

So now they need approved travel documents to travel within "The Land of The Free"?

The rules have been changed. We may not like it; there is no reason we can't use them to our advantage. Conservatives need to start "cancelling" people on the left, as well. Make them defend their positions in public.
