1)When did it become a crime for The People to enter The People’s House?

The next question is: Who was it that actually broke laws?

2)Seems to me that the Elitists calling yesterday’s protestors “law breakers” had no problem calling those who burned and looted cities (including DC) in 2020 “peaceful” and “justified”... and protected them from prosecution.
3)
As it was with all those mayors and politicians in 2020, it’s only when they are directly confronted by the People they pissed off that they call for “law and order” and start making arrests.
4) We are now being told that the “why” doesn’t matter (though it did in Portland and elsewhere to excuse that violence).
5) An Election was rigged and the Vote, the actual, tangible thing that enshrines and documents the Consent of the Governed, which is the foundation of all laws and permissions to govern, has been nullified.
6) At what point do “The People” regain the right to self governance and say “enough”?
7) Or do we just allow these political parties to do as they please, when the last line of defense, the peaceful redress of grievances available to them, the Vote, is no longer secure or listened to?
8) Whether it was Trump supporters, Antifa types masquerading as Trumpers (both methinks) that started the “breech”, the responsibility for what happened yesterday belongs to those within the Capitol Building, not without.

Absolutely fascinating thread as @jsralton & others track down the identity of key players in the Capitol Hill breach.

Including highly decorated ex-members of the military.

The double wrist ties, tasers, discarded weapons all show an intention to go much further than they got


Seems so ordinary, becoming Lieutenant Commander Brock in the US Airforce ...yet the conversion from the ordinary into the extremist will make a fascinating study for psychologists @RichardBentall


His claim that he picked up the wrist ties “someone” had dropped so he could hand them into police is laughable.

And when you think about it rather cowardly. Can’t even take responsibility for what he has done.

Who else were involved in the planning? Which mates of his?

The attention to detail in making the links is impressive.

There’s going to be a lot more doors knocked in in the next few weeks.

How high and how deep into the Trump establishment does it go.?


H/T @k8tshires for this summary from CNN

If the people involved in this insurrection succeeded where would the establishment face of the movement be?

I suspect not making the denouncements they are now that it
This is also the Rochester Police - dreadful mishandling of an altered mental status call - which led to their current crisis team, which was unavailable (and they didn't wait for in a low threat situation as they could have) for this 9 y/o!

In both cases there is a failure to use good judgement, make a valid threat assessment, to match in force to situation, failure to choose to wait for safer and appropriate staff/conditions and to use their time wisely. They also treat 'perp' as more object than human.

By the way... Rochester is near Buffalo - where this happened...

4/ Before the arrival of recorded music, what used to be scarce was the actual music itself — required an in-person artist.

After recorded music, the music itself became abundant and what became scarce was curation, distribution, and self space.
