McConnell and Pelosi knew the riots were coming and used them as a ruse to eliminate Trump

It was a set-up. It was a scheme to create a way for McConnell and Pelosi to rid the DC swamp of its worst enemy- Donald Trump. They wanted things back the way they were when the swamp creatures were in charge of everything.

Those riots always bugged me. Something wasn't right. The fences were breached a full 20 minutes before Trump finished speaking. The press still fails to report that Trump asked for a "peaceful" protest.

But there's more. A lot more.

The Capitol police let the protesters in

Of that there is zero doubt.

On January 11 it was reported that the head of the Capitol police, was rebuffed in his effort to get reinforcements to protect the Capitol

The outgoing chief of the U.S. Capitol Police said House of Representatives and Senate security officials had thwarted his efforts to call in the National Guard, contradicting assertions from other officials who said the force had not asked for help.

The former chief of the federal force, Steven Sund, told the Washington Post his supervisors were reluctant to take formal steps to put the Guard on call even as police intelligence suggested that the crowd President Donald Trump had invited to Washington to protest against his defeat was probably going to be much larger than earlier demonstrations.

Sund’s remarks were in contrast with those from officials in other branches of government, who said after Trump’s supporters stormed into the Capitol building last Wednesday that they could have provided more people to secure it – but no one from the Capitol Police asked.

Sund told the newspaper in an interview he had asked House and Senate security officials for permission to request that the National Guard be placed on standby in case he needed quick backup but his request was turned down.

"House of Representatives and Senate security officials"

And they report to....you guessed it.

On January 12 the Washington Post reported that the FBI knew in advance of the threat of violence

An internal document has revealed some of what the FBI knew before riots erupted at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, including that officials expected and warned of “violence” and had seen reports from online users that a “war” was to take place on that day.

The Washington Post has obtained the FBI documents, which includes a situational report approved for release a day before the rally supporting President Donald Trump. The rally led to a calamitous siege of the U.S. Capitol, which left five people, including a Capitol police officer, dead.

A day before rioters stormed Congress, an FBI office in Virginia issued a clear-cut warning that extremists were preparing to travel to Washington to commit violence and “war,” according to the internal document reviewed by the Post. The new findings contradict those of a senior official’s recent comments explaining that the bureau had no information to indicate the imminence of damage, injuries and death at a pro-Trump protest near the White House. (emphasis mine)

Then on January 13 John Solomon reported that he tried under FOIA to obtain the MPD report on the riots
Investigative journalist John Solomon said the D.C. Metropolitan police has denied his news company's Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to see the department's investigation into the Capitol Hill riot. In an interview with "Real America's Voice" host Eric Greitens on Wednesday, Solomon said police are keeping interviews with key capitol security officials secret because there is something "embarrassing."

The reporter said he would like to know what House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, and the authorities knew about the attack beforehand. Solomon said he has "significant evidence" that the Capitol Police, FBI, and Congress had prior warning of a planned attack and it was not a spontaneous riot emanating from President Donald Trump's speech that day.

Then he asked
"The question I have is what did Nancy Pelosi, what did Mitch McConnell know about these threats beforehand?" he asked. "If they didn't know, it's an intelligence failure of the police. If they did know, there's something they didn't tell us before we went into this impeachment round today."
There's a reason the MPD wouldn't cooperate.

Today Solomon reported that he asked Pelosi's and McConnell's offices a question

Of course it was planned. The commie left has all the resources it needs to play out any narrative they want. Steal the election with fake votes? No problem. Discredit election protests? No problem. Hitler wrote the script.

I knew when President scheduled that rally that it was going to turn into a trap and that ANITFA would take it over.

At this point who doesn’t know it was a set up. Most of us knew it days in advance. Just like we knew they would cheat the election. They do it and right in your face. Look guys and girls, they have telegraphed everything they have done has been deliberate and in the open for everyone to see. I promise you more democrats know it but won’t admit knowing it because there guy is in office. Maybe over 75% of Americans know it.

Nice post.

Trump had to know what was coming, that’s why he delayed his speech. Antifa/BLM was already at the Capitol before the speech ended.

Impeachment starts next week. Query: can Trump’s lawyers introduce the mountains of election fraud evidence into the Senate record in his defense?

It is one thing to bring an action (burden of proof, etc.) but it is entirely different defending against one. AFAIK, no court has accepted election fraud evidence to date, but in those cases Trump was the challenger. Here he is defending himself. Due process rights attach.

With the squishy marshmallow-man John Roberts in charge of the trial, any evidence that helps President Trump may be disallowed. A definite case of "railroading" seems to be on the agenda.

Yet the crystal-clear evidence that Pelosi and McConnell anticipated--in fact, sought--some kind of crowd action at the capitol that would damage the Trump cause can and will be entered into the record by Trump's defense.

What the media and the public does with this unimpeachable evidence of collusion by anti-Trump forces to besmirch and falsly criminalize a sitting President is anybody's guess.

Even as we speak, the rancid muck is rushing back in to engulf the swampy environs of Washington, D.C.

Why Did The Murdochs And Fox Execs Suddenly Become Mitch McConnell’s Biggest Donors?
POSTED AT 9:25 AM BY ALAN HUFFMAN
August 11,2020

Noteworthy among the McConnell contributors are four of the top executives of Fox Corp., the piece of the Robert Murdoch media empire that operates Fox News as well as movies, sports, radio, and TV broadcast divisions. The four executives — Rupert Murdoch, Lachlan Murdoch, Charles “Chase” Carey, and Viet Dinh — have made unprecedented donations to McConnell’s campaign but apparently have not given a penny to Trump. As first noted by Nick Surgey of Documented, and later mentioned by New Yorker writer Jane Mayer in an NPR interview, the Fox executives represented four of McConnell’s five biggest individual donors in the first quarter of 2020. These donations raise a host of questions that have not been otherwise reported or explored.

They both hate Trump, so yeah, they probably knew, and rejoiced when the chaos ensued.
