The idea that this was all spontaneous is sort of silly.

This was a Roger Stone operation.

Several apt metaphors for Trump dead end-ism amongst the dead Trumpers at the Capitol riot.

You have the lady who got trampled by the crowd press while clutching a "don't tread on me" flag.

You have the guy who had a stroke after accidentally tazing himself in the balls.

And you have the larper lady who was wearing a Trump flag like a superhero cape that took a bullet crossing a red line into a restricted area and bled out while all the Trumpers around her filmed it on their cell phones.

The good news is that around 90% are anti-mask sure makes it easier to identify, not the brightest bunch. Loved the video of the girl crying crying and complaining she was tear gassed, when asked why she was there she claimed this is the start of the revolution.

The people voted for Communism and or there was a combination of cheating in the presidential election. But this is what we get. Even Stalin had plenty of people in his way that needed to be eliminated. Elimination is what will happen. It is the pathway of Communism.

Watch documentaries about the history of Communism. You can describe the incoming regimes ideology in as many other fancy ways you wish in order to make yourself feel better, but America will still be Communistic once Obama takes his third term.

Also let’s be very very clear that Socialism is just a fancy term for phase one of Communism. It is Comminism. Period.

Did no one try to stop her bleeding?

Race bait comments from woke politicians like her are the reason why a reality TV star like Trump won in 2016

These are some of the people that have been arrested, so far...

"An attempted murderer, a state lawmaker, and multiple self-proclaimed white supremacists....

Consistent with images flagged on social media, many of the individuals arrested appear to have ties to groups associated with white nationalists and right-wing militia groups, including the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers...."

Racist white people rejected by society found a cult. With the cult's future in limbo, these angry individuals don't know what to do. Sad. Pathetic.

Patriots. LOL. ****ing terrorists.

One thing that I think, is that if you were going to select two skin colors within the fabric of American culture that have the closest ties and the strongest history here together: it is blacks and whites. I know that may sound odd and I do not have all the right words to describe why but black and white people are actually the strongest allies in America if you were going to mix and match skin colors, they get along better than one would think.

Black and white Americans have the longest history together here. The men fought in battlefields together along side one another. Blacks and white Americans have the deepest spiritual history together in America. Thus, these two skin color groups actually have much stronger cultural and even spiritual tie together than most people think.

Certainly blacks and whites have different tastes in life and we have major differences but in my opinion something else is at play here, to divide and conquer.
