Jayapal: Republicans Denying Capitol Riot Is ‘Biggest Threat to Our National Security’
Breitbart ^ | 05.18.2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 05/18/2021 2:47:34 AM PDT by USA Conservative

Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) said on this week’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “The Sunday Show” that Republicans who deny the severity of the riot inside the U.S. Capitol building on January 6 was “the biggest threat to our national security and our democracy that we’re facing now.”

Capehart said, “Your reaction to statements that were made durning hearings early last week about the January 6 insurrection?”

Referencing Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-GA) saying last week at a House Oversight Committee hearing that some people inside the Capitol behaved as if they were on “a normal tourist visit,” Capehart said, “I can’t remember a particular member of Congress who said it was no big deal, it was like any old other day of people taking tours of the Capitol.”

Jayapal said, “I think that’s the biggest threat to our national security and our democracy that we’re facing now.”

One riot at the Capitol that lasted about two hours is a big problem but a year of nightly riots killing a couple of dozen people, injuring thousands, destroying huge parts of cities, causing billions of dollars in damages to private and public property and that one of riot is her biggest concern? I would say her denial of those other more than 300 riots that still continue is the biggest threat to our national security and safety.

The democrat party is a threat to the national security of the United States.

I believe the so called Capital Riot is the biggest threat to our country. But not for the same reason she lies about. It is the direct villianization of supporters of Preaident Trump and defending a stolen election.

He needs to apply at CNN. They are looking for people who can lie with a straight face. ASK the million people who endured the cold and were actually there. Great Americans, families, elderly, blacks, Hispanics, Chinese, Muslims, Christians, Catholics, Jews... just wanting to push the hold button for 10 days... and do an accurate count of the ballots. Wow, we’re really got a lot of strange creatures in the Swamp.

The “insurrection” was never a threat. And the actual VIOLENCE came from the actions of Antifa/BLM, not any MAGA members or marchers. This was an orchestrated action by Democrat Socialist operatives, with the full compliance of the Capital Police, while the National Guard was kept away from the site until well after the action, or orders from Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.

All official propaganda and Deep State propaganda to the contrary not withstanding. A “Reichstag fire” operation.

Some people trespassed on government property for a couple of hours? OMG! This is worse than the Holocaust!!

They say ridiculous things.

But I guess at least some people nod their head and say, “That’s right! You tell ‘em!”

“THE” biggest threat to our country and national security was the UniParty coup and insurrection of 11/03.

Any “Republican” for whom that is an issue, has outed themselves as UniParty (R)

It was a “mostly peaceful protest” where an “unarmed protestor was shot by police.” If we had an actual opposition party they would be rubbing the language of the left back in their faces regarding January 6th.

Yet, no outrage (or comparison) when a bunch of anarchists, disguised as social activists, detonated a bomb in the capital hallway some years back.

Communists simply erase history they don’t approve of.
They call it “progress”.

The stolen election was certified 93-7. Never forget. Never forgive.

It was a protest of a stolen election. The liars and thieves infesting that building are lucky they were not tarred and feathered. Even when the word went out that someone was murdered in cold blood the protester's retained a sense of order that no leftist mob would have.

I believe the whole thing was organized by the left . A Reichstag Fire event to provide the final excuse they wanted to wipe away our remaining Checks and Balances. Even though it did not reach the level of violence they were hoping for they are sticking with the Insurrection lie regardless because Cons never give up the Con.

Those were Biden election rallies, not riots.

House Democrats introduced a bill to erect a permanent “Attack On The Capitol” exhibit on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol. The bill specifies that the project must be installed in a “prominent location” and retain a “permanent” status. Property “damaged during the attack,” photographs, and a plaque honoring the “sacrifice of heroes, including United States Capitol Police Officers Brian Sicknick” are among the exhibit requirements. Officer Sicknick, however, died of natural causes according to D.C.’s Chief Medical Examiner.

“The Architect may include artwork created to depict the attack on the Capitol,” the bill adds.

The legislation adds to the Democratic party’s continued exploitation of the events on January 6th, epitomized by President Biden, who recently referred to the event as “worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War” and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who professed she thought she “was going to die” when Trump supporters entered the U.S. Capitol despite the fact the congresswoman was in an entirely different building at the time of the attack.

Jayapal said, “I think that’s the biggest threat to our national security and our democracy that we’re facing now.”

Only if you deny the year-long rioting, destruction, mayhem, and looting by the AntiAmerican BLM/ANTIFA scum.

Time for even the leftists to admit it.

Heck, just look at old video of the streets of the Capital the day Trump was inaugurated in 2016. So-called AnTiFa had the unobstructed run of the place and even then was not at all shy about using both violence and the looming threat thereof to advance its nefarious political agenda.
