As the crowd circled the Capitol, a small percentage unsatisfied with merely protesting breached the building and marched into dishonorable history.

Kaslin is at it again....

I think the only question that might be use to ask...who exactly was approached on bringing the Nat’l Guard in and refused the request by the chief of the Capital Guard. Once you know that person (likely Pelosi or Mitchell)...I’d ask for them to resign, or be fired.

The claim of “absurdity” can be raised, and it is entirely legitimate to question that claim. But the passions of the Democrat Socialists have been raised, and not much short of a sharp fetch upside the head will stop their screeching and false sense of righteousness.

The Democrat Socialists have once again gotten into the position of overplaying their hand, betting a pair against a full house, and trying to run a bluff. They have been shoveling ever more into the pot, thinking that a show of bravado and invective will make the opponents simply fold and meekly give up.

Sadly, that usually works.

"Conservatives" are really slow learners. Orwell had this all tapped out before I was even born.

O'Brien: "Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power."

The one risk they are taking is that we will learn to fight back before their final victory. The choice of Biden to conceal the engines of power now running full out in DC was brilliant. Who is threatened by a doddering old fool?

“...While no one should soft-pedal the incursion of January 6, nor should it be opportunistically exaggerated...”

When are we going to learn that concessions like this do no good. It’s pre-emptive surrender.

January 6 kangaroo commission indeed that way they won’t have to do any real work just play judge Roy Bean.
