So you may be hearing about AOC’s instagram histrionic performance saying she was traumatized by the breach at the Capitol because she’s the survivor of a sexual assault and maybe the Capitol police officer who told them to leave the office was an imposter blah blah blah.
Here is what most people who have never been to D.C. don’t understand. There are A LOT of Congressional office buildings, most not in the actual Capitol bldg.
AOC, for example, has her office ACCROSS THE FUCKING STREET. She’s in the Cannon House Office bldg. I looked it up because I was pretty sure this puppy doesn’t rate an office in the actual Capitol bldg.
And Katie Porter, who she sez she was with, is in Longworth. Which is across S. Cap St SE from the Capitol bldg.

A typical false flag op put about in a hard core Progressive leftist magazine posing as a nudey publication.
This will appeal to dedicated secular leftist Progressive memes and confirm in the minds of the hard core left that they need to destroy Christian Home Schoolers and feed into the current effort to cast any right wing organisation as potential terrorists.
Hence the 10K combat tropes guarding the Capitol against right wing terror, that exists only n the delusions of the hard left, and those who are pulling their strings.

“Before the Sears catalog, farmers near small rural towns usually purchased supplies, often at high prices and on credit, from local general stores with narrow selections of goods. Prices were negotiated and relied on the storekeeper’s estimate of a customer’s creditworthiness. Sears took advantage of this by publishing catalogs offering customers a wider selection of products at clearly stated prices.”

Investigators struggle to build murder case in death of US Capitol Police officer Brian Sicknick
According to one law enforcement official, medical examiners did not find signs that the officer sustained any blunt force trauma, so investigators believe that early reports that he was fatally struck by a fire extinguisher are not true.
One possibility being considered by investigators is that Sicknick became ill after interacting with a chemical irritant like pepper spray or bear spray that was deployed in the crowd. But investigators reviewing video of the officer’s time around the Capitol haven’t been able to confirm that in tape that has been recovered so far, the official said.
The case could also be complicated if Sicknick had a preexisting medical condition. It could not be learned if he did.

Parler CEO John Matze Announces His Termination
Parler CEO John Matze announced late Wednesday that he has been terminated as the company’s CEO.
Matze said that the Parler board on Jan. 29 decided to terminate his position, adding that he did not participate in the decision.
The Parler board is controlled by Rebekah Mercer, the daughter of hedge-fund billionaire Robert Mercer.
Matze said in a statement, “I understand that those who now control the company have made some communications to employees and other third parties that have unfortunately created confusion and prompted me to make this public statement.
“Over the past few months, I’ve met constant resistance to my product vision, my strong belief in free speech and my view of how the Parler site should be managed. For example, I advocated for more product stability and what I believe is a more effective approach to content moderation,” Matze added.
https://www.theepochtimes.com/parler-ceo-john-matze-announces-his-termination_3684204.html

Another layer for ‘the narrative’
On January 6, Trump supporters gathered at a rally at Washington DC’s Ellipse Park, regaled by various figures from Trump world, including Donald Trump Jr. and Rudy Giuliani. Directly following Giuliani’s speech, the organizers played a video. To a scholar of fascist propaganda, well-versed in the history of the National Socialist’s pioneering use of videos in political propaganda, it was clear, watching it, what dangers it portended. In it, we see themes and tactics that history warns pose a violent threat to liberal democracy. Given the aims of fascist propaganda – to incite and mobilize – the events that followed were predictable.
.
.
Increasingly central to Trumpism is the QAnon conspiracy theory, which, as many commentators have now pointed out, closely resembles Nazi anti-Semitic myths. QAnon is just the most obvious manifestation of the increasing parallels between Trumpism and Hitler’s framework itself.

yeah, it was great! I’ve no idea what journal that is tho.
Listen to this psycho
PSAKI: “Even after you’re vaccinated, social distancing and wearing masks will be essential.”

@ eaglesoars:
I think the logic is that Intel everybody’s vaccinated, people who aren’t masked could claim that they were vaccinated and supposedly in effect another two or 3000 people and cause tens of thousands of additional deaths.
@ right_wing2:
I haz news. There is no perfect vaccine. There is no vaccine that is 100% effective. That ‘logic’ applies to every one of them. So, theoretically, even vaccinated people can infect others with any disease such as flu.
Marjorie Taylor Greene has been stripped of her committee assignments by the Dems. Watch the spineless GOP do exactly nothing.
Pathological
@AOC
just said on her insta live that rioters broke into her office during the insurrection. this is honestly bone chilling.

Eco terrorists have a bad tendency to “disappear” in Wyoming. My father worked for the USGS long long ago and said that after a couple attacks by these types they would never be seen again. Dry well holes are pretty useful.

Thousands of used up drilling sites across Wyoming. A handful of missing eco terrorists. Of course it’s assumed they went home.
@ Bunk X:
That’s probably the smartest cat on the planet.
AOC needs some counseling.
I wonder if AOC cowers in fear every time Ted Cruz walks by her?
How’s that “open borders” policy working out?

don’t think so. This is her latest
Not only did I never make this claim [tell people to punch a cop], but I would never, ever do this.
What Greene is doing pumping this lie to her insurrectionist base is making them feel justified in further violence.
The prospect of stripping her committees clearly isn’t quelling her. She must be expelled.

Pravda.
More idiocy from Mittens.

back in the 70’s the eco shits tried ome crap up in lycoming county pa (yes, where they made the piper cub and the venerable lycoming airplane engines).
anyhoodles…up in the moutains…near places like camal and english center, it was all logging. but they did it right, strip cuts and re-plant. the strips make great fire breaks and good areas for leafy brush, therefore good for deer hunting.
these fire breaks saved the entire joint from a bad forest fire in the mid 80’s. i was up with my parents and grandparents. papap gave me the keys to his international scout and told me to get going up the mountain to help fight the fire. i was 16, had my license for 2 whole days! my dad heartily agreed and told me to get as much water into coolers as i could gather into the truck. why? sez I…that isnt gong to put out anything…yeah, dad looked at me and said ‘for people to drink, you moron’. always subtle 😉 14 hour of fire fighting kicked my very in shape 16 year old ass!
well, the eco shits who messed with the logging in the late 70’s, rumor has it, were caught by rail road guys and handed over to the loggers. papap refused to say what happened to them and he was fairly connected to the locals there. there were much nods and smirks for some years later

@ coldwarrior:
Good story. Might be the only way now.
5 senators and some 100 plus house reps still grinding the GWB big oil money. Also putting out the thoughts that a third party is bad for everyone.
I probably would propose that Trump form his Patriot party and have the GoP join it. Then still just two parties. Trump proved DC was wrong about most everything. Why do I want to do wrong?

If you are so well organised and funded to have the GOP join a Third Party (AKA The Patriot Party) then why do you not just use that self same organisation to so dominate the GOP and Primary out all of the RINOs?
Your suggestion seems illogical. I smell a rat !
Splitting the GOP into two and then attempting to weld it back into a single party helps only one group and it’s NOT either the TGOP or new the Patriot Party. This smells like a Democrat plot the splinter and render the GOP ineffective for the foreseeable future.
Say it isn’t so ….. logically.
