CNN —

The National Archives in Washington, DC, closed early on Wednesday after two people dumped red powder on the display that protects the US Constitution, Archives officials said in a news release.

“The Constitution was unaffected in its encasement. No damage was done to the document itself,” the Archives said in a statement.

The individuals were immediately detained by security at the time of the incident, around 2:30 p.m., and officials are investigating, the Archives said

This isn’t secure to my thinking. It needs a secondary barrier.

‘Red’ powder? Looks more like a...pinky russet to me rather than red.

Was there in the ‘80’s. I thought it was very cool. I always think of the Star Trek episode related to it:

“The Omega Glory”. The conceit of the episode is that the Enterprise arrives at a planet where the blond-haired, light-skinned “Yangs” are brutally oppressed by the vaguely-Asiatic “Kohms.” As always happens in these sorts of situations on Star Trek, the oppressed eventually rise up and overthrow their oppressors.

At first it looks as though the Yangs aren’t going to be any better to the Kohms than the Kohms were to them. However, it transpires that the Yangs’ holy document is the American Constitution, garbled through centuries of oral tradition; Kirk recognizes the words, and ends the conflict by giving a stirring speech about equality...

these idiots and their ilk. Are they paid

operatives or out just for a

No manifesto? , no angry statements? / sarc

they should realize this accomplishes

nothing and by the looks of them

they must be paid operatives because

they look too stupid to do this

on their own!

“NOTHING. Useless mouth breathers with barely double digits of combined IQ.”

I think 99% of that double digit IQ is devoted to the mouth breathing.

“Big Deal. The Democrats vandalize the Constitution daily.”

They aren’t alone in that.

I guess the azhos that are supposed to be protecting it were out dumpster diving looking for more garbage on President Trump. Someday they may get lucky and find something.

“Investigating”

1) Spend a fortune, determining the gender.

2) Spend a fortune, determining the color.

3) Spend a fortune, determining the self-identification.

4) Spend a fortune, determining the narrative.

5) Check with the Southern Poverty Law Center, and use DNC-AI software, to generate The Word from The Swamp

6) Gather and study feedback from the public - the public defined by The Party:

a) Members of labor unions
b) Members of the liberal media
c) Jim Acosta, CNN, and other “informed sources”
d) BLM, the cartels, muslim bro, GAZA Palestinians
e) Pelosi’s, Blumenthals, Podesta’s, Holders, Lynch’s, Jarrett’s
f) “experts” with “expertise” at the federal bureaucracy
g) . . . BUT NOT ANYBODY IN FLYOVER COUNTRY.

7) Have press conference #1, where the perp’s are portrayed as “the real victims”

-OR-

Don’t have the press conference, and BURY THE WHOLE SITUATION.

Probably Red No. 2.

Toxic Superfund Site cleanup required.

Note it is Red, Republican, = Trump did it.

“This isn’t secure to my thinking. It needs a secondary barrier.”

It’s better than it looks. Also, at the push of a button the entire case sinks under the floor and into a vault that can withstand a nuclear blast, IIRC.

Somebody needs to “vandalize” these little soy cretins with some of their own red body fluid.

They have the look of Mexican. Possible migrants who came in on a bus.

They aren’t alone in that.

Very true.

As it is, the presentation of the original manuscript copy of the U.S. Constitution at the National Archives is almost comically idolatrous. We manifest over-the-top reverence for the physical document itself while p*ssing all over the principles it expresses on a seemingly daily basis.
