So....I really HAVE awakened to find myself living in a Third World Bananna Republic.
This is just beyond amazing.
And: “Ultimately, we must root out the dark forces of racism, white supremacy and disinformation that have created this moment, but until we do that, our extraordinary troops will deploy with honor.”
What does that even mean? Who is it directed at?
I am genuinely alarmed and perplexed by that.
I worked in prison for ten yrs. Now our representatives will be working in prison.
Bet she couldn’t even pass the New York City Police exam.
The only good thing I can say about the barriers around the White House was that it made jogging easier for a little stretch. It is also, unfortunately, an assault to the eyes and to freedom.
There used to be a tradition that on New Years Day. Any American could walk into the White House and have a brief conversation with the President. I believe this extended to the end of the Hoover administration.
We certainly have progressed as a nation.
I also expect the National Guard will be replaced in Washington by a praetorian guard. I would suspect this group will not be regular US military or enhanced Capitol Police but a “security force” carefully vetted for political purity and owing loyalty solely to Democrat Congressional leadership. I could even see this “security force” being made up with at least some foreign mercenaries.
Masks are an excellent example of this tactic. Although, as results show they are clearly, completely, entirely, 100% ineffective against stopping transmission of a respiratory virus, and despite that many, many Americans remain irrationally frightened of a virus with a 99.99% recovery rate, that hundreds of millions of healthy people are so afraid and so convinced a rag over their nose and mouth will save them from what politicians, unelected bureaucrats and their favorite "medical expert" says will surely kill them -- kill them dead! -- provides an extremely potent and persistent visual reminder that we're all just one cough, one sneeze or one spit droplet from certain death!!
This political purpose and because most American have sacrificed rationality to fear(i.e., have become cowards) is why dehumanizing (i.e., masking) of health people will be around for a while no matter how many "effective vaccines" are distributed.
Good. Keep them locked in.
