Biden Inaugural Like Baghdad: Green Zone, Red Zone, Military Checkpoints to Enter and Leave Downtown D.C., Bridges Into City to Be Closed
GP ^ | 01/16/21 | Kristinn Taylor

In the days leading up to the Biden inaugural, the nation’s capital has been turned into an occupied military zone like Baghdad.  Armed troops authorized to use lethal force are manning checkpoints to enter and leave downtown Washington, D.C.  Green Zone and and Red Zone perimeters have been established. Several bridges into the city from neighboring Virginia are scheduled to be closed next week for the inaugural.

Sean Spicer, President Trump’s first press secretary and current Newsmax TV host, posted video apparently taken Friday night that shows a military checkpoint to leave D.C. near the Lincoln Memorial. The video also shows cars on 16th Street near K Street parked in rows blockading the roadway. But first, a scene-setter report by Spicer’s Newsmax co-host Lyndsay Keith from 16th and K in the daytime.

Spicer’s nighttime video:

Another report on checkpoints to leave D.C., “A friend just called me from his car in DC, he was dropping his wife off at her office in NW. They had to go through an Armed Checkpoint to enter the city! Leaving the city, he had to stop at another Armed Checkpoint.
He was required to show his ID. #UnlikeAnElection”

Four of the main bridges in and out of D.C. from Virginia will be closed for 48 hours around the inauguration. Two bridges from Virginia to D.C. are not set to be closed: Key Bridge from Rosslyn to Georgetown and Chain Bridge from McLean to Canal Rd. near the Palisades neighborhood.

The Secret Service posted a detailed list on Thursday of the streets blockaded by military checkpoints and divided into a Green Zone and Red Zone.

I got something this am from Twitter( which I don’t use) that said Trump told his family and friends to get out of DC last night due to security issues.. Who knows if that’s true or not.

I don’t get all this war like preparations.

Who exactly do they think they have to defend themselves from? Certainly not our side - we’ll be just sitting on our hands like good little kids.

Watta slob----she shows up for a Vogue cover shoot in black sneakers.
What's she gonna wear when she meets the Emperor of Japan? Plastic thongs?

===================READ ON====================

I wonder who on Kamala's staff wrote this garbage regurgitated by Vogue to cover it's sorry ***.

EDITED COMMENTS---EMPHASIS ADDED---NYP--Page Six--1/13/21
Vogue’s editor-in-chief Anna Wintour "said" the magazine’s cover shot of a slovenly Kamala Harris in ugly black sneakers nicely represents the Chinese virus.

The contemptuous Harris showed up for the high-fashion shoot in her own blazer, jeans and a pair of outdated black Converse sneakers.
Wintour says that Vogue felt very, very strongly that Harris reflected the pandemic that is killing people, and
"really reflected the hallmark of the Biden-Harris (?) campaign (?) and everything that they are trying to, and I’m sure will, achieve.”

Ousted Vogue editor, the morbidly obese, André Leon Talley was forced to say, “It’s GREAT. JUST GREAT. GREAT.....
Her work uniform with her ubiquitous Converse sneakers is aspirational....its [sic] going to set a 'trend'
for all young women all over the world, [who] are going to dress like Kamala Harris.”

====================================

This garbage is what we can expect if anyone dares to say a discouraging word about the Biden/Harris stolen election.

---------------------------------------------------

Watta phony-—of course, SHE KNEW.....they TOLD her this was the cover. She’s whining now b/c she’s been criticized for posing for a NOT very presidential photo. Whining after the fact underlines her elitist unmitigated contempt for Americans......AND her rank stupidity. SHE showed up in that slovenly outfit....SHE allowed Vogue to photograph her..... SHE knew darn well this was the cover shot.......no cover decisions are made without the agreement of the cover subject. Was this agreement in writing?

Even worse, Harris probably refused a more appropriate outfit.......fashion mags always stock tons of fabulous dresses given by designers hoping to get their names mentioned.

“The Left is about to completely lose its sh!+.”

Why? They got what they wanted, they voted for the guy and gal.

Maybe it’s like people rioting after their team wins the super bowl?

This national guard presence and occupation seems excessive even considering the gaslighting propaganda by the Dems-Media that the Jan 6 protest was an insurrection and Biden’s inauguration is in danger of being attacked by Trump supporters.

But it may be that they think they need the protection of military troops from the American people because of what they PLAN to do immediately upon Biden taking the oath.

One possibility is that they plan to arrest former President Trump and maybe other members of his administration the moment Biden finishes stumbling and halting through the words of his oath.

I put nothing past this group.

You forgot that border walls don’t work, as per the lefties now in control of America.

All of a sudden borders, walls, and ID are necessary.

Go figure.

Probably on the run, like Ceaucescu and his wife were in December 1989.

Border walls like the ones THEY put up don’t work.

If they guarded the border to keep out the illegals, like they are guarding OUR Capitol to keep our AMERICAN citizens, then those border walls would work.

I suspect he was never asked and never ordered. Looks more like deep state stuff.
