Bigg Red: Nancy has no power to do any such thing. The fencing is all part of the cleanup operation.

Bob: Your source of information would appear to be wrong.

Me:
Hmmm. I tend to read everything nowadays with a hyper-critical, and yes, jaded, eye. And I don’t think this one passes the smell test, FWIW.
From the article .....
“.... a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press on Thursday.”
So, the Always Propaganda has yet another *anonymous source* for its latest Capitol scuttlebutt. (Yawn. What else is new?)
And Nanzi is *obviously* the Boss here, because this anonymous source, who was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly, nevertheless said that congressional leaders said that police officials said that Chicken Little said that they had to keep fences and guards in place, because it might be likely that thousands of pro-Trump rioters could come in and have a repeat insurrection and melee - you know, just like those thousands of dastardly Trump supporters did on Jan. 6th! (Oh noes! The sky is falling!)
Moreover, Nanzi is certainly obviously the Top Banana, because ‘more than 40 Republicans’ ...gasp!... wrote Her a letter! Oh, my!! (Just maybe, could some Republicants be dumb enough to believe her blathering hype? ¿No es posible?)
“Associated Press writer Kevin Freking contributed to this report.”
(You can’t make this stuff up, I swear!)
Gee, that was Freking awesome, Kevin! So, this article must all be true! Move along, please. Nothing else to see here!
Mmmmmmmmmmkay....
IMO, Nanzi has no choice for her own CYA-ing ego but to slant and spin the uncomfortable and disconcerting situation she finds herself and fellow criminal cohorts in, as though She were the one to whom everyone else must answer. That’s the only comfort zone she knows, ever since hauling that big-ass gavel down the street. And she’s a lying snake spawn of Satan, so spewing such BS comes as easy as breathing to her, and some foolish politicians buy it.
As for me, I’m in no hurry at all to see the guards leave DC, and the fencing come down, until they’ve all served their purpose. (Isn’t that fencing still lockable only from the outside, or did it somehow all get turned around somewhere along the way?)
What a movie we’re watching! (I’ve ODed on popcorn for now, so am currently on a “peanut butter pretzel interlude”...)
Well said!
