I defended the Capitol from Trump’s mob. I know he’s an insurrectionist.
The Hill ^ | 03/21/2024 | DANIEL HODGES

Posted on 03/21/2024 10:00:44 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

When I received my acceptance letter almost a decade ago to the Metropolitan Police Department of Washington D.C., my imagination raced with the intense, life-or-death scenarios I would be confronted with on a regular basis in order to protect and serve the citizens of our nation’s capital.

But even while contemplating such scenarios, I never imagined what I experienced on Jan. 6, 2021, or that I would be one of a few dozen officers standing in between former President Donald Trump’s fascist dreams and American democracy. The attack on the Capitol, perpetuated by a mob commanded by Trump, was and still is an existential threat to both my city and the country at large.

The world looked on in horror as thousands of Trump’s most loyal followers overran police barricades, stripped law enforcement officers of our equipment and savagely beat us. They looked us in the eyes and called us — the ones protecting the Capitol — traitors.

“Your ego makes you sound like an jerk off.”

You need to have a huge ego to want to be a cop.

“I’ve read The Hill, and I know everything they publish is anti-American Bolshevism designed to destroy the country.” If someone said that, that would be kind of the same, wouldn’t it?

“I don’t understand why their side believes they can convince anyone to not vote for President Trump with their hyperventilating, but I suppose there are a few Karen’s out there who may actually be stupid enough to believe this nonsense.”

The only things that the RATS have to run on are “abortion rights” and hatred of Trump.

It’s what they do. It’s why I don’t trust anything that comes from them. They obviously have a Leftist agenda.

He probably tells the story to his friends at the gay bar like this: There I was standing there facing a horde of MAGA hat wearing nazis with just one can of pepper spray, my two fists, and a collection of Barbara Streisand favorites on the iPod. One by one I took them out, a punch here, a kick there, my eyeliner and lipstick still perfect. I switched classics from the Village People and said to myself, what would RuPaul do in this situation? So I laced up my high heels and ran into the capitol. Suddenly that icky Trump comes crashing through the doors of Congress, his hands bloodied and and carrying a scary banner ( later I’d lean it was the US Flag that the far right white sumpremacists are so touchy about). As I stared him down, the chorus of YMCA in my ears, I raised the can of pepper spray and aimed. When I woke up, I would later be told I sprayed myself in the face but would receive a Purple Heart and a medal for valor in combat. I look good in purple, have a matching dress.
