Americans are expected to be aghast at the events in Washington, D.C. on January 6. A vicious mob of revolutionary Trump supporters, we are told, swarmed the nation’s capital and, in an act of insurrection, unlawfully entered the hallowed halls of Congress. Unlike the “fiery but mostly peaceful protests” that were reported over the summer, the media have been quick to claim that this was not a “mostly peaceful” protest (despite the protestors being, by any estimation, mostly peaceful), but the entire event is being categorized as a bona fide riot that had been fueled by Donald Trump’s irresponsible and untruthful rhetoric.
As a matter of scale, we should note that the level of violence and destruction that occurred in Washington since January 6 is some immeasurably tiny fraction of the violence and destruction visited upon cities across America in the orchestrated riots that occurred in the wake of George Floyd’s death. And while the media and its preferred politicians are still actively and outwardly pretending that George Floyd’s death has the slightest thing to do with racist police officers (it doesn’t, and there is not a single compelling shred of evidence anywhere that it does), the media and its preferred politicians are simultaneously pretending that ordinary American taxpayers have no legitimate reason to be expressing their political outrage in Washington.
That’s a contemptible lie.
Just ten years ago, we still lived under the naïve presumption that, in a free republic of the people, by the people, and for the people, the people’s elected representatives should be expected to read and understand legislation before voting laws into existence.

What is left out is that much of the Capital breech looks to be a staged hoax again. This time with DC Police, democRAT staffers and antifa/blm likely involved.
“What is left out is ...”
This is where the active censorship by media, tech and givernment is very dangerous to the domestic tranquility.
I am still waiting to see the list of all people arrested and who they are. As of Jan 7, the latest articles I am able to find ..on Jan 11, LA Times reports the most - that 82 were arrested ... but when you look at the breakdown, 64 were curfew violations, 1 was for intoxication, and one was for failure to appear. No real bios on any nor on the 16 who appear to be part of the riot... could it be that they are anti-Trumpers? We knew more about the Nashville bomber in less than 12 hrs ... and know zero about 16 people whose arrests threaten millions of peoples’ civil liberties, and an effort to remove Trump by the 25th A and/or impeachment?
Every time the liberals were unhappy about something, they flooded the streets of Washington, D.C. with protests like the Pussy Hat thing, Million Moms, BLM and Anti-fa, etc. ad nauseum. No one ever called those for what they were, insurrection against the government in place. Now, conservatives who up by the thousands in their streets and a VERY few people (still don’t know who they were) broke some windows and one was unjustifiably killed. Now, we have a REVOLUTION. This is all so twisted it is beyond belief.
