Panic buttons were inexplicably torn out ahead of Capitol riots, says Ayanna Pressley chief of staff

Panic buttons installed in Ayanna Pressley’s congressional office were torn out before rioters stormed the Capitol last week, her staff have said.

Sarah Groh, who serves as Ms Pressley’s chief of staff, was with the congresswoman when president Donald Trump’s supporters stormed the US Capitol building last Wednesday.

She told the Boston Globe that she had reached for the panic buttons installed in Ms Pressley’s office as they tried to barricade themselves in.

But, when they went to press panic buttons, Ms Pressley’s staff saw that they weren’t there, and appeared to have been ripped out.

“Every panic button in my office had been torn out - the whole unit,” Ms Groh told the paper.

She added that she could not believe why the panic buttons were removed, and that Ms Pressley’s staff had used the panic buttons in the past, including during drills.

Nor had Ms Pressley and her staff moved offices, said Ms Groh.

The ‘automatic update’ that I’ve had disabled on my iPhone forever “suddenly” renabled itself, sometime in the last few days.

Skynet lives.

The Deep State was looking for a massacre. Send in Anarchists/Antifa wearing MAGA hats and let them do as much damage as possible. Creepy to tear out the panic buttons.

The MSM must be pumping indoctrination through the pipes - terrifying the public that Trump supporters are going to suddenly start acting like Democrat’s supporters.

Well, I guess that means that someone on her side probably set this up.

They expected them to go Antifamerica on them and have a slaughter for their impeachment trial.

“They, like Pressley, have blamed the diagnoses on their Republican colleagues who did not don masks in lockdown as pro-Trump rioters stormed the Capitol.”

It’s our fault, just because bargain basement hysterics.

If this was first reported today, something smells fishy. Sounds like the possibility of some creative evidence.
