House Democrats on Wednesday introduced a chilling new video at former President Trump’s impeachment trial showing Capitol Police Officer Eugene Goodman redirecting Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) in the halls of the Senate to protect him from the mob storming the Capitol.
Democrat Stacey Plaskett, a delegate from the Virgin Islands, narrated the never-before-seen footage.
In the video, Romney can be seen striding toward the Senate chamber. Goodman is running toward him and can be seen shouting orders at him as he passes, causing Romney to quickly turn around and run for safety.

sorry to duplicate your comment. I really need to read them all before commenting.
They say that like its a bad thing. 😆
Too bad the crowd didn’t use Pierre’s a$$ as their own personal soccer ball.
I wonder how many elected officials are actual sociopaths.

THE GREAT CAPITOL CHICKEN RACE!
“They looked mad.”
“Like the Communist wall in downtown Berlin. Not here yesterday....HERE TODAY!!!!”
Nancy Pelosi’s wall of shame. She’s a very scared woman who values her safety more then she values the safety of the country or the American People.
I’d like to know who voted to approve that massive waste of tax payer dollars.
Some heads need to roll.
Pansy. Leaders don’t run and hide.
Blockhead,,,
She’s more interested in demonstrating what she can do and doesn’t pass up a chance to do it. It’s so telling that everything she does to demonstrate power is ‘photo worthy’.
I mean it’s all at the level of childlike half-wits who wouldn’t know or care about her media tantrums, unless she stage managed her in-your-face moves...like tearing up the Presidents speech.
In this case..... it’s some real crude, graphic, gut-level grandstanding... PERIOD! It’s just like kids dancing in the end zone after a touchdown.
Correct me if I’m wrong... did a Conservative politician EVER pull a stunt like that...more to the point, did a Conservative politician ever HAVE to?
Nancy HAS TO because she is an addicted media whore who feels lost and worthless without the wholesale, incessant and undivided attention of every camera on earth.
A REAL politician worth the name, would articulate his/her position rather than manipulate the MSM to coerce public opinion.
All these sight gags are aimed at the lowest elements in the country. Anyone with brains expects and deserves more from US politicians.
I wonder which one’s are not.
His magic panties were brown and the stripe on his back yellow. Hie off to Kolob, Mittwit!
And none of his big, husky, healthy sons ever served in the U.S. armed forces. They’re not putting their necks on the line for the country. No siree.
I can't speak to that, but according to Dr. Clarissa Cole fully half the people she FAILED on their pre-employment psych eval were hired as cops anyway.

Transcript of the most relevant portion:
(Start at 1:18:31)Something to think about the next time you're pulled over...Dr. Cole: He had an epiphany; he was going to become a cop!
Eric Olsen: Ha ha ha what??? Uh, so, wait a minute, he was told by a former employer, if you ever, you better never get a job where you have influence over others, an authority position, or I’ll do whatever it takes to stop you. So wouldn’t becoming a cop kinda give him the ultimate authority over people?
Dr. Cole: Well, you know, lucky for all these other people, he kept moving from county to county so they weren’t really, uh, yeah, it is the ultimate authority he was just moving around so people wouldn’t know what he was doing, and I think getting out of the teaching profession they didn’t know what he was going to do.
He eventually applied to the Broward County Police Unit; he was rejected, though, because he failed the psychological test.
Eric Olsen: Oh that’s it he’s out of the career. No career for him He’s obviously unstable…
Dr. Cole: One, you know what? One would think so, and I actually used to perform these psych tests, and oh, do I have stories! You would think that it would even, it’s supposed to, let me tell you how it’s supposed to work, it’s supposed to prevent you from getting a job as a police officer or a prison guard.
Eric Olsen: Sure.
Dr. Cole: Does that always occur?
Eric Olsen: I would hope that it does.
Dr. Cole: No, no, no, I would say 50% of the time.
Eric Olsen: What?
Dr. Cole: It’s supposed to be a be a requirement, a REQUIREMENT, if you don’t pass, if you are not psychologically fit, you are not supposed to become a police officer or a prison guard. Does that actually preclude you from becoming a police officer even as long ago as what, 2005? No, I was doing them in 2005. Half of the people I rejected still became a cop.
Eric Olsen: How does that happen? How do they get around this?
Dr. Cole: Oh God there so many ways
Eric Olsen: Is it a buddy, a dad?
Dr. Cole: My son, he’s the son of my buddy, his dad is a cop, he has to be a cop, he’s going to work in this county and we’re really understaffed, we need people, we know he failed, but it’s OK. The amount of excuses I heard to employ people.
And that’s the thing, just so the general public is aware, it’s difficult to fail, it’s difficult to fail one of these psychological…
Eric Olsen: What would cause one…
Dr. Cole: It’s not like the bar is so darned high that no one could pass, it’s nothing LIKE that, this test is just to find out is this person basically psychologically stable, are they non-sadistic, do they not have criminal or punishing tendencies or narcissistic tendencies themselves. Basically you’re trying to weed out anybody that has a like God complex; I’m judge, jury, and executioner. You want to get those people out of there. You’re trying to get people out of there that are just psychiatrically so unstable that they can’t control their emotions so, maybe some sort of bipolar thing going on or somebody that absolutely clearly has a personality disorder, like narcissistic personality disorder, antisocial personality disorder, borderline personality disorder. They are not
Eric Olsen: Checks and balances. Checks and balances to protect the general public from somebody that would not do well in that position.
Dr. Cole: And I was very, yeah, I was extremely, forgiving on these psychological tests even when somebody would sort of hit sort of some of those marks on the tests we would give, I would ask in interviews I would ask a ton of questions just to be very, very sure that this person was indeed failing the psychological exam, and I did not fail that many people, but the people I failed, please believe me that it was for extremely good reasons, extremely good reasons, and half of them became cops anyway.
Eric Olsen: So when they‘d leave would they go to a different state and do it?
Dr. Cole: Hah no, they would get hired by different a county, like a couple minutes over usually. Somebody knew them and “Now let’s pick them up.” “No, no, no, he has really strong sadistic tendencies and fantasies of rape and murder, you really shouldn’t hire him” and they would. And that’s exactly, I hope it’s different that was like I said, this was in 2005, it scared the heck out of me and I said I would never have a career doing that I don’t want to know that those people are becoming officers.
Eric Olsen: Tell me it’s in the minority, though, that this happens.
Dr. Cole: It’s in the minority that people fail, the majority of people passed. But those that do fail, like I said it’s for very good reason, but half of them. Half of them got picked up. So no, it’s not a minority a full 50% got hired.
Eric Olsen: That is truly a scary number out there that 50% of...
Dr. Cole: It’s a small sample, a small sample that was in a place that was economically depressed and needed officers…
(End at 1:23:29)
...and the next time you doubt cops would follow orders to fire on citizens!
Run, Mitt, run!
Cowards running away from unarmed citizens...
Trump and other Republicans faced worst when Antifa was trying to burn down a Church... but the corrupt press sided with the violent thugs...and President Trump didn’t get a seconds worth of concern.
Creepy double standards...
