Republicans of all stripes dismayed and shocked, I tell you shocked about today's events.    They have no idea how this could of happened....

This is their version of joining hands and singing kumbaya - problem is - they're all tone deaf.

So the National Guard for DC is one the way. Could only be deployed by the Dept. of Defence on Trump’s say so. The original request was denied. But the Governors of States can authorize it as well, which is what the Governors of Maryland and Virginia did. Only once they mobilized did Trump flip and order the DC guard to activate as well. Didn’t want to be shown up by actual leaders taking action. 

When asked why the DC National Guard was not being deployed, someone was quoted as saying the “optics” of having the troops at the Capitol would look bad. Take another look at the picture above and ask why it was not an issue when BLM had its protests, which never got near the Capitol steps. Then look at pictures of the domestic terrorists (don’t call them protesters) storming the building with Confederate flags  - somethig that was not even achieved during the Civil War - ripping down American flags and replacing them with Trump flags, attacking police, smashing windows, or breaking into Senators’ offices and looting the place, and ask how those optics look?

To be fair to those folks, the mayor had requested National Guard assistance ahead of time and was denied by the DOD, and the Capitol police and WPD were out in force, but were overmatched. I won’t speak for those individual officers who did nothing or took selfies. 

So to clarify from what Twitter is now saying, it was in fact Pence and not Trump who authorized the sending in of the DC National Guard (unless you believe Kayleigh McEnamy’s version that it was Trump - so hard to know who to believe). Since he was rushed from the scene of the riot in a panic, he probably had a better feel for the situation.

In other more cheery news:

 

man that aide should get a PoF

god I hope there's a stay at home order enforced tomorrow with the exemption of the senators and the frontline workers, honestly I've seen children that had been watching Caillou act more mature than these losers (it's a stupid comparison I know but come on)

When BLM marched....there was Military, National Guard, and a variety of special forces, ready and willing.    This thing?   Mob spends hours on Capitol Hill trashing buildings and nothing happens?

Plenty of questions to be asked...

Nope. Only one question. 

Why would anyone be surprised by this?  This is what America is and always has been. Trump did not create this, did not even bring it out of the woodwork. It is the anti-Trumpers who were pushed to speak out to a segment of society that was finally ready to listen and shone a light on what was always there, the racism, the police brutality, the murder of African Americans at the hands of law enforcement. The white privilege. The selfishness, arrogance, and stupidity of America.

These are the things and events that happen when a sacred landslide election victory is so unceremoniously & viciously stripped away from great patriots who have been badly & unfairly treated for so long. Go home with love & in peace. Remember this day forever!

Oh, it will be remembered alright..

What's the point of having a curfew if you don't enforce it when you have idiots in front of cops in riot gear and they are just yelling at them constantly, grab them and throw them in jail.

There was a serious lack of planning for what happened today. Whoever was in charge should be fired. They seem to be pushing the terrorists back. I'd have liked to see head cracked.

Or a serious lack of will, to do anything about it.........
