Lindsey Graham urged police officers to use their guns during the January 6th riot at the Capitol, pressing them to “take back the Senate!”

The quotes, since confirmed to Fox News by the senator’s office, surfaced in a new Washington Post investigative report detailing the events of that day.

Graham, according to the report, was livid that senators had been forced to flee their chambers due to protesters that had entered the Capitol.

“What are you doing? Take back the Senate! You’ve got guns. Use them,” he told police personnel.

I remember that a former baseball catcher who played for the Philies (Bo Diaz) was out in Venezuela on New Years eve and they apparently fire guns into the air (back when people were still free in Venezuela) to mark the event and one of the falling bullets hit him in his hand and kinda wrecked it. Like he was shot in the hand because basically he was.

In an aside, he was one of the unluckiest dudes ever. He was shot by a falling bullet. Later when he was installing a satellite antenna on his roof and somehow he managed to have it fall on his head and crush it, killing him. But perhaps his most unlucky moment was when he was signed to play for the Phillies.

They were not “forced” to do anything. The people were not “protestors”.

The cowards ran from a group of people strolling through the building as they were let in by capitol police.

The very people politicians claim they represent.

Warning shots are indeed a bad idea. You have no control over what they may hit, or where they may ricochet to.

Yes. The article was in uncoverdc.com and it was called Flight of the Squidpickles.

EVEN if Botoxic was in on the plot, she either didn’t or couldn’t share that info with the congresscritters. Therefore they were absolutely terrified when patriots walked into what they thought was “their” house. They were hiding under chairs, running & shoving to get into elevators, all caught on cameras.
