Trump supporters storm the Capitol Building

Thrag:

While normally I’d think Trump not attending the inauguration is just him being his petty self, given recent events it’s hard not to imagine there’s an element of he doesn’t want to be in the way of the terrorism he has knowingly unleashed.

I think that is why he and his family should be forced to be there. Wouldn’t that limit the chance of another terrorist attack? Wouldn’t want to risk injury to dear leader.

On the other hand - WHY is the inauguration not being done via livestream from a secured location anyway. Covid was reason enough, and can still be touted as the ‘real’ reason. Sure, maga-hats will crow forever about “crowd size”, but who cares.

Can’t speak for humanity but for the country I comfortably put it as Sept 11, 2001.

It really can’t be overstated how completely the terrorists have won, nor how complicit the Republican party is in that victory.

Pelosi to House Democrats: “This morning, I spoke to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley to discuss available precautions for preventing an unstable president from initiating military hostilities or accessing the launch codes and ordering a nuclear strike.”

IT’S CALLED IMPEACHMENT, NANCY

IF YOU’RE AFRAID THE PRESIDENT WILL LAUNCH WW3 BECAUSE HE’S AN IMMATURE CHILD, REMOVE THE CODES FROM HIM

And what did he say?

Anklebiter:

Nothing in the law can stop Trump from pardoning the terrorists from yesterday, correct? He could do this at a minutes notice, so not even removing him from office could stop it?

If true, he will do it, so I’d prefer to get the screams out now.

He might, for sure.

But this thing jumps into my mind all the time: Trump is a transactional president. He thinks the Capitol thing looked “low class”. Those idiots have nothing to offer him.

That’s what was bugging me when I was asking me about this yesterday. I don’t see what pardoning these jokers gets him. He already has their adulation, what more is there?

He’ll do it as one last FU to the Dems and the law, as well as to keep the crazies devoted to him for another week.

A total of four people died after a pro-Trump mob stormed the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday (Jan. 6).

They’re working on it but that process is slow and isn’t going to stop Trump from launching a military strike today or tomorrow or anything. So her reaching out to the Joint Chiefs is a good thing IMO.

From that article:

We’re not sure whether the man who died was a Trump supporter or police officer, as of yet.

LOL

Dammit @triggercut, why aren’t you all-knowing? It would be much more convenient for all of us. Get on that.

It’s a scene straight out of Idiocracy the movie.

Where? I’ve seen some of the planning stuff, but no calls for executions.

Lin Wood called for executing Pence for one.

Stuff like this is so common that no one even acknowledged it (last line and remember they DID make a gallows outside Congress, shitty as it was):

Roughly 90% of QAnon’s messages are about executing people. If not higher.

QAnon is basically always “we grab these traitors (usually Pelosi, Obama, Schumer, but often ‘RINOS’) and then we execute them”. Though often it’s Trump or Flynn doing it, they’re more than happy to do it themselves.

Several websites that analysts say are hotbeds for far-right and racist ideology hosted numerous chat threads urging Trump supporters to “storm the Capitol” on Jan. 6. On Monday, several posters in the chat room boards.4chan.org/pol/ said Trump...

The Day of the Rope is very much a thing with these people.

Oh man, that’s genius. Especially the smiling lego guy with a selfie stick.

I suspect Lin Wood’s ability to practice law may be in some jeopardy.
