The J6 investigation is the 2020 election fraud cover-up. And everyone knows it. Everyone.

We are asked every day to believe the unbelievable. 28,000 is greater than the size of a US Army division.

The imaginings of the deluded are fascinating.

Ok, totally not getting this one.

Why would you confiscate body armor? Per Section 931 of title 18, United States Code, any US citizen who is 18 or older and has not been convicted of a felony that constitutes a crime of violence can purchase and wear body armor in the USA. So .... not a federal crime.

There are no extra body armor regulations in Washington, D.C. besides the federal laws. Bulletproof vests and other body armor are legal for adults to purchase and wear, with certain specific exceptions, e.g. adults with felony convictions. Body armor can be bought face to face or online.

So were the 6 body armor confiscations all from felons?

Trump followers set up MG-42’s in pillboxes they constructed the night before. It reminded me of “Saving Private Ryan”.

“Secret Service confiscated a haul of weapons from the 28,000 spectators who did pass through the magnetometers: 242 cannisters of pepper spray, 269 knives or blades, 18 brass knuckles, 18 tasers, 6 pieces of body armor, 3 gas masks, 30 batons or blunt instruments, and 17 miscellaneous items like scissors, needles, or screwdrivers,” the report says.”

That was just from the FBI agents.

Where are the guns?

No guns, no insurrection.

People routinely carry items like this for self protection or personal use. Scissors! Pepper spray! Pocket knives! Oh no!

No guns, no insurrection.

I saw the headline wondering if they showed up with battle axes, maces, war hammers, and bludgeons.

And all they had were pocket knives and mace…?

These people are delusional to the point of being dangerous.

They are indeed.

The left is emboldened. No one is standing up to them. The MSM is covering for them and the Deep State is all in. Elections are rigged in their favor and the right is in complete dissarray. The only real possible oppositon, Trump, is getting some flack from idiots in his own party.

It only gets worse from here. Fascism, USA style, is just getting warmed up. Even they are surprised at how easy it is going now. Evil cannot be appeased.

Grandma with scissors in her kitting bag was carrying a weapon. Anyone with a pocket knife had a weapon. It is all BS.

Unfortunately, I have to agree.

Don’t forget the screw drivers in case they needed to change out the switchplates to a more fabulous color.
