At least take down the razor wire: D.C. residents, lawmakers chafe at Capitol fence

“It’s kind of like working in a minimum-security prison right now,” Rep. Mark Amodei (R-Nev.) told acting Capitol Police chief Yogananda Pittman during a Thursday hearing before the House Appropriations Committee.

,,Pittman and Timothy Blodgett, the House’s acting sergeant-at-arms, said they are awaiting several security reviews before making a decision about the fence, but that it would remain at least through President Biden’s first address to Congress because of threats of violence from militia groups,,,

The acting chief of the U.S. Capitol Police warned lawmakers Thursday that militia members involved in the Jan. 6 riot “want to blow up the Capitol and kill as many members as possible” during President Biden’s first congressional address.

/ Who's quote. ",,,want to,,, " is this ! Urinalist doesn't say, maybe this quote belongs to Pittman , cuz media still has sidestepped the origin source . Media and beserkers make the claim with weasel words and still hasn't presented the source of this " Intelligence". If they know the quote is accurate why is there no culprits name given ,,? Cuz there is no culprit, it's a fiction IMHO.

// Since Nancy cannot provide credible threat intelligence to justify the Pelosi Perimeter (tm/-)

Then perhaps Paranoid Pelony needs to be pyschologicaly examined to determine and diagnose the extent of her paranoid delusions , be removed from office and placed on a psyche hold in a secure facility for her own protection.

( And ours /-) Just an idea.

Lots of us had play forts against imaginary enemies when we were kids. Fort Pelosi isn’t any different.

People are under an assumption that Pelosi can just move in and take over the military because she, the media, the majority of the mouth breathing electorate and she thinks she can

She can’t

Find out who exactly is in charge of this and you will have an understanding

Realize that the Washington post die zero research.

They won’t take it down because they KNOW their regime is there illegally.

As I understand things, The morons in Occupied DC are so afraid of Qtards who believe March 4 is the original and Constitutional inauguration day; that they dare not demilitarize DC until it is safe to do so.

Because Trump will declare himself President on that day and reclaim the White House.

My theory on the Capitol fence is that they don’t want Biden wandering off down a public street and touching or sniffing little girls.

Another moron in Occupied DC, Ted Lieu, has also stated that unless and until Trump apologizes for his 01/06/21 riot and admits that he truly lost the election, then there remains a clear and serious threat that demands troops protect the Capitol.

It’s good to know these deranged idiots truly live in fear. They should.

Sorry. Not buying it. This is political theater to keep pitching the idea Republicans are terrorists.

Go full Berlin; a concrete wall, with guard towers and searchlights. Then Trump can have a great photo op — “Ms. Pelosi, Mr. Schumer, if you believe in the Constitution, tear down this wall!”

AND - they have much more REALLY nasty things in store for us ahead...

There is GOOD reason that they need to feel fortified against a rising angry populace.

Just like the mask, these military fortifications provide a strong visual reminder of just who is in charge ... who has the power over you.

They represent a no-nonsense reminder that you had better take these symbols seriously and that you risk condemnation -- if not a loss of what remains of your American liberties or of even physical harm -- if you dare challenge any of this.
