Not sure who feels the way I do, but I am sick and tired of white people being marginalized and made to feel like we are second class citizens, especially white males.
Be very sure that number is north of 180 million. Biden is not even sworn in yet, but Obama's 3rd term is underway under a full head of steam.
Obama has been pulling the Democrat strings for 12 years and this garbage comes directly from him.
This account generally coincides with other reporting, sourced to anonymous White House aides, about how Trump responded to his supporters’ actions, and why he took so long to tell them to “go home.” (Though an adviser who spoke to New York magazine’s Olivia Nuzzi said that Trump disliked the optics of the mob, viewing them as “low class.”)
...and Trump SAID he loved them, even though the optics weren't good!
Media was showing a split screen of the tally and the start of the insurgence.
For whatever reason, Trump did not make sure the National Guard had been deployed.
For whatever reason, Trump waited until Biden insisted Trump go on TV and stop the siege and the arrival of the guard to release a one minute video, expressing his love for them and telling them to go home in peace.
Then Ivanka tweets they are patriots, then deletes it
Took a full 24 hours for Trump to create another video, this time with a pitch perfect tone, obviously scripted, by his attorneys.
As I sit here, media is reporting the House has the votes to impeach. Their preference is for Trump to resign. If this does not happen, Pence to invoke the 25th. In absence of either of those actions, it seems they will proceed with Impeachment to hold Trump accountable.
Assuming so, the ball is in the Senate’s court to convict or acquit. As I understand it, action requires a 2/3 majority present. The Senate is not in session.
Great Post OP. Far too many have forgotten that what they once called social justice and rightful protest they are now calling domestic terrorism.
It seems like we can have 100 riots carried out by far Left groups but all it takes is one outburst by the far Right fringe to tip the scales. We can have Police ambushed and murdered, countless citizens brutalized for being in the wrong place at the wrong time and business owners watching their lifes work looted and burned and it is no big deal but one idiot in Charlotte in 2017 drives his car into a crowd and that is THE example of racist white supremacy and everything that is wrong in the USA?
Watching the mob storm the Capital building reminded me of so many riots where antifa and BLM attacked court houses and Police stations. The only difference being that one crowd waved the American flag while the other dragged it on the ground.
We are in big trouble. The Democrats have an agenda and they have the media to control the narrative.
Well.. POW's were losers according to him (even though he never served) , so you can't expect a bunch of morons not covering their face to hide their identity forcing their way into a federal building to be "winners"
Their prints are everywhere.
Easy to identify which cell phones were inside the Capital, when and where.
And no shortage continue to out themselves, give interviews and get their 15 minutes of fame.
State held federal elections are subject to federal oversight!

That's exactly what the Supreme Court told Texas as well.
Your argument was rejected by the highest and reddest court in the land. You lose.
Actually, when massive corruption is allowed into our federal elections, as is the case in Venezuela, the people of the United States "Lose".
The truth is, the Supreme Court neglected to give an evidentiary hearing to the list of particulars found in the Texas BILL OF COMPLAINT, part of which asserts that the Defendant States have violated Article II, Section 1, Clause 2, of the United States Constitution, and the Fourteenth Amendment’s due process and equal protection clauses of the U.S. Constitution.
As to Pennsylvania's federal elections, they are subject to federal oversight!
Let us look at some facts.
Our Constitution by its 14th Amendment prohibits an abridgement of the right to vote.
By our Constitution’s 15th Amendment, the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude, making this right federally protected.
By the 19th Amendment the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex making any abridgement federally protected.
By the 24th Amendment The right of citizens of the United States to vote in any primary or other election for President or Vice President, for electors for President or Vice President, or for Senator or Representative in Congress, shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any State by reasons of failure to pay any poll tax or other tax.
By the 26th Amendment, the right of citizens of the United States, who are 18 years of age or older, to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of age.
And, Article II, Section 1, Clause 2 declares “Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors …” Keep in mind the Legislatures of the various States are bound by their state constitution and the Constitution of the United States.
An example in which a State Legislature has violated Article II, Section 1, Clause 2 of our federal Constitution is the State of Pennsylvania, allowing no-excuse mail in ballots to be counted without the PA Constitution being amended to allow such ballots.
Yes. Insuring only legal votes are counted is a federal question

When our federal judicial system ignores our written Constitution and assents to legislative acts contrary to our supreme law of the land, it not only opens the door to anarchy, but participates in such treachery.
How many federal buildings did the women's march break through barriers to breach again? How many cops did they murder? How many millions of dollars of damage did they cause?
Oh, yeah, none, because it was a peaceful march of real Americans, not an insurrection of MAGA deplorables. There is a difference if you are honest enough to admit it.
Those at the rally we’re getting ready to leave and didn’t realize that was happening, you talk about reason and stressed last summer that the demonstrations were peaceful and shouldn’t be lumped in with the looters and those burning down businesses, yet that is what you guys and press is doing here, yet even though it’s as been denounced, it those at the rally is lumped in with those guys. If that isn’t hypocritical please explain why?
I don’t consider the folks who stayed outside behind the barriers to be culpable in what happened inside The Capitol. They were exercising their right of peaceful protest. I feel the same about the protestors this summer who marched, but didn’t participate in looting and property destruction.
Trump needs to be exiled to some lonely island with enough food and water to last out his days..that would be the worst possible thing for him, the best for us..
