Trump supporters storm the Capitol Building

JoshL · 2021-01-12T15:39:13.127Z

It’s sort of funny (not funny) how Republicans always immediately and 100% capitulate to terrorism. They did it after 9/11, and they’re doing it now.

I heard about this last night in this very thread, but it’s the first time I’m seeing it reported.

It was a perfect speech, everyone says so

Some chuckles for Legal Eagle.

I’m not sure when and where the fire extinguisher incident happened that killed the officer - but there is
video of an extinguisher being thrown just prior to the building being breached (happens a few seconds after a guy shoves an officer - from the left).

as opposed to what she actually does , which is sit around on her ass listening to her father’s temper tantrums and maybe occasionally getting him a Coke.

This is an unfair characterization, IMO, maybe even a little bit sexist! I’m sure Ivanka is just as busy grifting and engaging in felonious activities as the rest of the family and doesn’t have time for that. :)

I wonder how blissful my life could be if I toggle off the internet and cut off contact with all people for nine straight days.

Washington Post – 12 Jan 21

‘I do regret being there’: Simone Gold, noted hydroxychloroquine advocate,...

The physician, an outspoken critic of lockdowns and other government efforts to stop the spread of covid-19, said she followed a crowd in and did not realize it was illegal to enter the building.

@Woolen_Horde that wasn’t loading a preview (though I see it is now) so I grabbed some quick screens.

Oh, well this one’s easy. Imprison her with an infected population and, when she gets sick, only offer her treatments she’s recommended.

Telegram gained 25m new users in 72 hours

Somebody lost 25m users?

Pretty sure this is unrelated and it’s people leaving Whatsapp after they said they are gonna share data with Facebook. The privacy change was announced prior to the riot on Jan 4th.

Totally legal, cool, and appropriate.

Asked what is his own role in the Capitol insurrection, Trump responded, “So if you read my speech, and many people have done it, and I’ve seen it both in the papers and in the media, on television, it’s been analyzed, and people thought that what I said was totally appropriate.”

Parlertakes had tweeted previously that Parler users were migrating to Telegram, but I don’t take anything at face value. However, if I had to guess, there are a lot of Parler people at Telegram right now.

Trump is heading to the Border to check out the Wall he built. Can’t we just take his passport and throw him over it?

Twitter should make it bannable to quote Trump on Twitter.

Sure, but you know perfectly well Mexico will throw him back.
