Shots Fired

Post by bignflnut »

There was an enormous rally today in DC
POTUS called on VPOTUS to act.
VPOTUS of course, played his impotency card and the people stormed the Capitol.
VPOTUS has been evacuated, the Capitol lockeddown...process of counting Electoral College votes ceased.
Now, reports of shots fired...

Jan 6, 2021.
6pm curfew ordered in DC.

God Save the Republic.

Don't see anything burning or a large quantity of big screen TVs passing down the streets.
So I guess it is a peaceful protest.

Pence betrayed voters...now POTUS, himself, orders the National Guard out to clear the Capitol


At President @realDonaldTrump’s direction, the National Guard is on the way along with other federal protective services.

We reiterate President Trump’s call against violence and to remain peaceful.

— Kayleigh McEnany (@PressSec) January 6, 2021
Violence by whom? What avenue currently allows a peaceful revolution?
Without the truth, peace is not available, and shall not remain or be established.

^Link to my reply to the same post in the other thread.
Claims are being made that Pence authorized deployment of the National Guard without Trump's approval. What does this mean?
UPDATE - Acting Secretary of Defence confirms it was VP Mike Pence, not President Trump who authorised deployment of the National Guard.

National Guard all around DC... for the events of this week (the 20th?)...
U.S. defense officialssay they are worried about an insider attack or other threat from service members involved in securing President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration, prompting the FBI to vet all of the 25,000 National Guard troops coming into Washington for the event.

The massive undertaking reflects the extraordinary security concerns that have gripped Washington following the deadly Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol by pro-Trump rioters. And it underscores fears that some of the very people assigned to protect the city over the next several days could present a threat to the incoming president and other VIPs in attendance.
Encourage you to view this clip of video showing walls, barbed wire, troops, etc in DC

Even IF you had this concern, why print it at AP?
Because you're building a narrative, just like having fake polls reflect fake election results...

Biden’s transition team claims there is a very real fear that members of the national guard who support President Trump might kill Biden during the inauguration so they’ve asked commanders to confiscate all ammo and magazines from the soldiers. Biden’s team asked if it would be possible to determine which soldiers voted in GOP primaries or who have contributed to GOP candidates so commanders could station them away from the president-elect.



The request was refused.

Capitol Locked Down again as smoke seen coming from building

https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1 ... 6173911046" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
UPDATE - Capitol Hill staffers received the following text per @ArdenFarhi
:

“All buildings within the Capitol Complex: External security threat, no entry or exit is permitted, stay away from exterior windows, doors. If outside, seem cover. USCP”
DC Fire and EMS
@dcfireems
#DCsBravest responded to an outside fire in the 100 block of H St SE that has been extinguished. There were no injuries. This accounts for smoke that many have seen.

What would that get them? Harris as President. I think that may be worse. Or if the somehow killed Harris too, then Pelosi would be president. Definitely worse. And if they managed to kill Pelosi then Patrick Leahy would be president, which would be about the same at Biden.

I think its ridiculous that they would do that. The president is their commander and chief whether they agree with him politically or not.

Just so everyone knows...probably nothing...just another DC suicide...
A second police officer has died by suicide following the Capitol protest on January 6.

According to testimony obtained by Politico, Jeffrey Smith, a DC police officer who responded to the Capitol attack took his own life.

Meanwhile, Antifa continues to rage peacefully in Portland...

But we had better round up all those Trump supporters, you know we all have hoods and sheets in our closet just waiting, so they better round us up and put us in camps to "reeducate" us...

A Washington police officer who responded to the Jan. 6 breach of the U.S. Capitol was found dead inside his home last week.

Gunther Hashida, 43, killed himself and was found on July 29, a spokeswoman for the Metropolitan Police Department told The Epoch Times.

“We are grieving as a Department as our thoughts and prayers are with Officer Hashida’s family and friends,” the department said in an emailed statement.
