Seditionists - Time for the National Guard to earn their pay

Tell me how · 06-01-2021 08:20PM

House has just gone in to recess with reports the capitol is now on lockdown.

Incredible.

And all this incited by the 'SITTING' President.

Jeebus H Christy!!!

Police have now withdrawn inside the building and the Capitol's East Front has been taken over by hundreds of protestors! No police presence right now!! Of course, no police goon squads, baton wielding police thugs on view- they're probably in the Proud Boys crowd on the steps..

Protesters breaching multiple police lines, including inside the building, and still not even riot police deployed while family BLM marches see hundreds of riot police.

This can't be just incompetence from the police.

namloc1980 · 06-01-2021 08:34PM

They are in the building now. This is crazy

martingriff · 06-01-2021 08:39PM

Okay this is out of control now I fear we may see violence

At this stage I hope we see violence from the protestors because that will be the most effective way to kill off the movement... I'd also expect to see the national guard there to protect the democracy but they are white and armed so of course they will not dare to show up exactly like the police, brother in arms and all that.

We have a coup.

Unbelievable. I never, ever thought this would happen.

Where are the national guard? Where are the riot police? If this was BLM they’re be swarmed by now.

Trumps legacy. Hands total control to Democrats. Quite fitting.

First incumbent since 1932 to lose the presidential, house and senate votes all in one.

Overheal · 06-01-2021 08:55PM

Trump almost certainly shouted down about the 25th Amendment if he refused to control this chaos.

Okay this is all kind of crazy they are in the dial of the house

Anyone want to guess who the Commander in Chief of the Washington DC National Guard is?

pixelburp · 06-01-2021 08:58PM

After this the media narrative HAS to be that these Trumpists are domestic terrorists and traitors to their nation. If this was BLM there'd be dead protestors already and excessive police force to spare. Instead an open act of sedition was allowed to take place in DC. Calling them protestors from here on in would be a laughable dereliction of duty from the Press.

L1011 · 06-01-2021 08:59PM

Cruz et al absolutely need to be charged with sedition over this. And Trump's resumed federal executions...

This is the end of the Republican party if this isn't the immediately conclusion to "objections."

What Senator is going to DARE sponsor an objection that gives even more oxygen to this sedition-movement outside, now, when they've stormed the Capitol and have exhanged gunfire inside? It would be the end of the party. No more "Yeah well Dixiecrats dur hur" it would just be "the party of shooting up the Capitol bldg when it loses elections"

If they insist on continuing with their sh*te once this all settles down then absolutely, they have to.

First death in Capitol Hill reported on live stream by so far three different persons.

And guess what; what a surprise:

All of this comes back to Mitch mc connell.

Tell me how · 06-01-2021 09:07PM

Suggestion that a request for the National Guard to be deployed has been rejected! Fcuking Hell.

Frank Bullitt · 06-01-2021 09:07PM

Never thought it would get this bad, even as low as Trump went, never in my wildest thoughts did I see chaos like this every transpiring.

Such a shame to see, it really is.

namloc1980 · 06-01-2021 09:08PM

Everything here is straight out of the fascist playbook.

That's why Esper was removed as secretary of defense a few weeks ago and a trump loyalist installed.

Tpcl20 · 06-01-2021 09:09PM

The DoD has been refused their request to de-escalate using the national guard.

Every civic rights and minority advocacy group in America must be grinding their teeth so much right now.

This was always where the MAGA crowd were headed. It was always thus. Weekend warriors in their store bought military gear, and of course some would take it upon themselves to be heroes of their own personal Olympus Has Fallen. The entirety of American culture and latter-day politics has engendered a sense that only the armed white man can Get Things Done. Here's the crop being reaped and if it isn't nipped in the bud now for the wannabe Kristellnacht that it is, it will only get worse.

What about the police?? Where are they?

How long would it take to supply the national guard?

Tpcl20 · 06-01-2021 09:12PM

CNN saying the National Guard was activated yesterday after Pelosi asked for them to come and help. How has it been left go this far?!
