Well, I decide to go back to the NYT article, and it seems to me the narrative is part and parcel of what's described. For example, there is:

Now rioters stand off with the police in the hall, feet away from the entrance to the Senate chamber. Senators are still milling about inside.

Is this in the area where Ms. Babbit was killed? The vids I've seen of that are of protesters who seem to be at that time getting along with the police just fine. Everyone there seems stunned when the young lady is shot - hardly the reaction of a riotous mob or the police up against such.

Granted I can't get the vids at the link to play, so the descriptions given I assume come from a typical "hate Trump and his supporters" viewpoint and interpretation?

For me a crucial question is who initiated violence, use of chemicals, etc., first? Trump supporters? Antifa types? The police? FReepers on scene (but not breaking in!) have indicated initial police use of flash bangs and tear gas angered the crowd, and escalated the situation, but is that a full picture?

Twitter is the most evil corporation on the planet and Conservatives still support it. Like the cow supporting the butcher.

#19. /SARC re “RNC campaign headquarters in No. Carolina were torched in 2016. The FBI never found the culprit. Wonder why”?

Well, was Comey the head of the FBI back then? That would explain a lot. AND

The FBI was so incompetent that they went to South Carolina instead of North Carolina.

Nothing against the great FBI agents who do their jobs professionally. The “rot” was at the top and still is.

Thanks for the post. It is just a reinforcement to my thoughts that the ‘riot’ was an Antifa planned and led effort to discredit pro-Trump rally attenders. And Antifa knew that all of its left wing allies — political types and media — would leap on board with out a 2d thought.
