Too convenient, IMO. Too convenient, IMO.

There's more to it than those videos or the bullsh*t claims are making out.

The Congressmen are crossing the street at the Longworth House Office Building crosswalk. Longworth has an UNDERGROUND TUNNEL connecting it to the other HOBs and the Capitol.

IOW, there was absolutely NO reason for those Congressmen to exit the building and cross there ... unless they were deliberately trying to provoke a reaction from the crowd. They could've just taken the tunnel over.

Not getting what they wanted, it seems they've now resorted to making things up.

You are correct about the tunnel, which is routinely used. Also, why did they go en masse?

There was no indication of any reactions from nearby Capitol Police. And they absolutely saturated the entire complex today. Believe me, if there was something of an untoward nature directed at a congressman (or in this case a group) the Capitol Police would certainly have stepped in. So someone needs to ask why they didn’t, which would force them to find and look at the tape.

I thought about that after seeing them go through, knowing that there’s a tunnel from the Capitol building to the offices (I’ve been down there before). Also, most of the Congressmen who came out were on our side (Gohmert, Pence, Blackburn are some who I met yesterday). Looking back, I think they made a concious effort to go out though the crowd, so they could then run to their allies in the lapdog media and do what they always to—play the race card.
