For four years, Democrats worked hard to criminalize support for Donald Trump. They investigated Lt. General Michael Flynn, advisor Carter Page, personal attorney Michael Cohen, foreign policy advisor George Papadopoulus, and campaign strategist Roger Stone, among others. Most were arrested for brief periods. None were guilty of anything related to Trump, most weren’t guilty of any crime at all. They were prosecuted because of their affiliation with President Trump.
Now, our duly re-elected President Trump has been ousted from the office of president by a criminal conspiracy to install Joseph Biden, an usurper, in his place. To do this, a combination of voter fraud, election fraud, dereliction of duty in the courts, and suppression of conservative speech was employed.
One of the more perfidious examples of the new intolerance for all things connected to an honest assessment of the 2020 election are the mass arrests of people who attended the January 6th rally in Washington D.C. Two events took place on that day, each initiated by different groups of people on opposite sides of the election integrity issue.
On one side, Trump supporters gathered on the Ellipse to hear the president speak on the subject of election fraud and to show their support. On the other side, Antifa-led groups met at the Capitol for the purpose of gaining unlawful entry to the building, vandalizing it, and blaming Trump supporters for their actions. As proof of their goals, they broadcast messages on social media that exposed their plans in enough detail to leave no doubt regarding their intentions. The Antifa members, all of whom attended the Capitol riot for the purpose of defaming President Trump, wore pro-Trump merchandise to disguise themselves as Trump supporters. This is well-documented.

Thanks to a late arrival at the Ellipse, the president concluded his speech about half an hour later than expected. A half hour walk’s distance from Trump’s rally, Antifa-led groups “stormed the Capitol” before Trump had finished speaking, while most of the people in attendance remained at the Ellipse. By the time genuine Trump supporters arrived at the Capitol, Antifa had already entered the building and begun their riotous behavior. Some Trump supporters wandered in, some invited by the Capitol police, with no inkling that there would be any question whether it was legal to do so.
Make no mistake:
We are in the grip of an Evil Force.
It is extremely strong, and very, very clever.
NOT to be underestimated.

The reporting of the January 6th events has been scandalous and agenda-driven from the first hours. I was there for Trump’s speech and the flag-waving on the West side. There were zero weapons in evidence. It was not a riot. The real scandal is that there was collusion between Capitol security and Leftist provocateurs.
“The police officer beaten to death with a fire extinguisher by Trump supporters” is still being reported in MSM even though they have known it is totally false for a long time. Now they have shifted to reporting that he was sprayed with a toxic chemical by Trump supporters. It is clear that the cause of death is being withheld to enable more false reporting to smear Republicans and especially Trump Supporters. The work being done to label Trump supporters as domestic terrorists is the next stage of the “progressive” escalation of the smear.
These were the rioters who respected the rope lines
Me too. We were loud, we were angry but we were also respectful and peaceful. We waved our signs and made our presence known, then we went home.
Why wasn’t the Capitol secure? Who opened the door and said come on in, to people who were there to cause problems? Many were not Trump Supporters.
It was just a stroll.
