At least 25 people are being investigated for terrorism in connection to last week’s riot at the Captiol, a congressman said Sunday.

The revelation was disclosed by Colorado Rep. Jason Crow, citing the Secretary of the Army Ryan McCarthy, whom he spoke with earlier in the day.

“Secretary McCarthy said at least 25 domestic terrorism cases have been opened as a result of the assault on the Capitol,” Crow, a former Army Ranger, wrote in a press release posted to Twitter.

And we obviously can’t.

I recognize your username from way back when I used to post under another name. Good to see a few sane voices here on FR still.

How many of the 25 are BLM and Antifa infiltrators?

The white haired guy in the middle of the picture looks like Pence... I know he was supposed to be rushed through the tunnel.

The thugs always give themselves away....usually airborn one way or another.....breaking something or handing out bats etc. Also generally operate by two's.....

These whimps just don’t get that their game is up......that the public in general is sick of their junk leadership.

So, if someone posts “BidenNotMyPresident,” he/she/it can be arrested for domestic terrorism?

Yes, that's exactly what it means.

If an asteroid hit the Capitol and killed every one of them, they would be forgotten in a week. There would be new elections, or new hacks appointed by the governors. Maybe we could choose people out of the phonebook. They are just so full of themselves.

[Congress is one of the three equal branches of our system of government. What would you think if a bunch of BLM thugs broke into the White House, chased off Donald Trump (don’t imagine for a second that he’d stare them down — I doubt he’s been in a confrontation outside the courtroom in his life), and then took over the oval office? What would you call that? I don’t care whose desk it is. Those people marauding through the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday need to be arrested and dealt with severely.]

You do realize that Trump was under sufficient threat during the BLM/Antifa protests that the Secret Service hustled him into the White House bunker, don’t you? The media laughed at his cowardice and urged more of the same from the crowd participating in the siege. (Of course, it wasn’t a real siege - that would involve a serious body count, and bullets flying from both sides).

So what kind of prison sentences would you suggest for these savage interlopers? 30 years hard labor? The needle? As far as I’m concerned, if they had penetrated the White House and sat in the Oval Office? A few days in jail, followed by a release without charges. The nation has real criminals to deal with. This was a failure of crowd control, not an insurrection (which would have involved weaponry). What they were guilty of, just like BLM/Antifa during the White House siege, is lese majeste, at most. Since our elected representatives are supposed to be our followers rather than leaders/kings, lese majeste is a virtue, not a crime.
