Here is a crazy idea: search her and then arrest her when you find the gun.

Nah, she has some innocuous metal object in there and is just grandstanding.

Lantz:

Then you arrest her for impeding or the like.

She’s a crazy person. It’s a gun for sure.

I’ll go down to the diner and check in with the diners’ feelings about this standoff. BBIAB

I actually agree with him. The proper course is impeachment, conviction, removal, and prosecution…

Here is @VP’s full letter to @SpeakerPelosi telling her he will not invoke the 25th amendment to remove Trump from office. Pence said the amendment is “not a means of punishment or usurpation” and would set a “terrible precedent” if he used it. https://t.co/jPjnpksrAh

May I say, yet again, fuck Pence. I think he really thinks has a political future. That’s sweet.

Multiple Republicans refusing to go through the metal detectors, walking around them and entering the House chamber. Cops aren’t stopping them.

He’s not actually wrong about that, but if Trump ends up petulantly nuking something it’s not really going to matter.

I would agree with Pence if Trump were not delusional. Pence knows Trump better than I, so perhaps the appearance of being delusional is just an act. In which case I guess the 25th is inappropriate.

Congresswoman Boebert is gonna murder someone on the House floor, mark my words.

Thrag · 2021-01-13T01:14:27.186Z

I was honestly half expecting her to do so during the insurrection.

And everyone will express shock and surprise when it happens.

So we’re approaching the ‘Preston Brooks’ phase. Yay!

charmtrap · 2021-01-13T01:35:58.194Z

Legal Eagle’s been busy…this time asking if Trump is guilty of incitement.

A: Not really, but he should be impeached anyway.

Trump to Pence, according to two people briefed on the conversation, “You can either go down in history as a patriot or you can go down in history as a pussy.” @peterbakernyt @maggieNYT @anniekarni report nytimes.com/2021/01/12/us/…

Very wise words - though I imagine Trump has his definitions reversed for both.

Pelosi said her young staffers knew to barricade the door, turn out the lights, and be silent, because they learned it in school.

Source confirms to me that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo cancelled his Europe trip after Luxembourg’s foreign minister called Trump a criminal and EU officials declined to meet him

I like how one of the things Trump ran on and keeps insisting he did is make it so America is respected around the world again. Good job, Donny boy.
