More insane footage from the Capitol steps as an officer is being dragged down the steps and beaten. I don’t think this is officer Brian Sicknick who died of his injuries ... thank god some of these guys still had a little humanity left to help save him from the rabid mob.
Entire Video.

This is a good read.
Democracy is a threat to white supremacy—and that is the cause of America’s crisis

Just before the other videos where the woman was shot, you can see the senators in the background getting away. It was Pences and Pelosi’s security left behind.

Do they mean if an armed insurrection happens, they hope the casualties are limited? Or Don just leaves peacefully?PhanLo - If the government is overthrown, or Biden is sworn in. Same same. “They all lie anyway.“jtb26

A [radical] left-wing perspective on the events of January 6:
"[Wednesday]’s ‘sacrileges’ in our temple of democracy – oh, poor defiled city on the hill, etc. – constituted an ‘insurrection’ only in the sense of dark comedy. What was essentially a big biker gang dressed as circus performers and war-surplus barbarians – including the guy with a painted face posing as horned bison in a fur coat – stormed the ultimate country club, squatted on Pence’s throne, chased Senators into the sewers, casually picked their noses and rifled files and, above all, shot endless selfies to send to the dudes back home. Otherwise they didn’t have a clue. (The aesthetic was pure Buñuel and Dali: ‘Our only rule was very simple: no idea or image that might lend itself to a rational explanation of any kind would be accepted.’)"

@fax shared this in the donald threat, but i find it far more important than just to be related to trump.

few years ago i was living in a country where this happened exactly the same way, their "capitol storm" was a success and in the past decade they grew a real derp state in the bg.

From my Latin American perspective, what happened in the Capitol, without going into details, represents a weird, bizarre, giant milestone. Not only because of the meaning and shat triggered what ended up with a violation of such an emblematic institution, but mainly because of the mere fact that somehow it was possible, what for me (and I dare to speak in the name of other Latin Americans) seemed unwavering; The Capitol of the safest nation, with the most feared military power in the world, with the hundreds of films and documentaries since I can remember, building an absolute, unequivocal, heavy-handed feeling of total control... a nation showing such an absolute leadership..
How could it happen to the military intelligence, the one that has been instilled in us by more than half century, that a couple thousand civilians disguised as special ops made everything fail so bluntly so that the occupation of the fucking Capitol could even happen??I feel that everything I considered about the US “intelligence” has been put into perspective. The FBI, CIA, blah... imo it is going to take several years to re-establish that "almighty" aura in the eyes of the rest of the world after having shown such an ominous breach.
- shat = what :|maquito
- Yep. I worry that the US will have to flex its military and CIA operations to try and regain some face globally.thumb_screws
- Or at least condemn whoever corrupted them. Again, I think it’s far..maquito
- The freedoms we openly took for granted here as well as institutional safeguards were exploited... as a result the United States may never be the same.jonny_quest_lives
- It may just be a return to the 50s/60s era FBI and DOJ that aggressively attacks this homegrown terrorist threat the same way they went after the Klanjonny_quest_lives
- No good outcomes for liberty or freedom either way.jonny_quest_lives
- Was it close to 45% of the entire population back in the 50’s?maquito
- Hoover's FBI was notoriously ruthless on whoever they turned their attention to back then.jonny_quest_lives
- I think the idiots have taken over. And those are way more than the 69’s “klan”.maquito
- *60’smaquito
- He was spying on the Kennedy's, Martin Luther King Jr. and just about anyone who pissed Herbert Hoover off.jonny_quest_lives
- not sure where everyone gets this 50% of the population supports trump number.jonny_quest_lives
- There are 239.2 Million eligible voters in the US. In this 2020 Election 159 million voted of that tally Biden won 51.3% or81 million voters.jonny_quest_lives
- Trump garnered 46.8% or 74 million votes. That leaves 81million voters who didn't even vote they either don't give a shit or feel their vote is wasted.jonny_quest_lives

- I just have visions of some department within the FBI cranking out Qanon/ Right wing Militia warnings steadily for the past 4 yearsjonny_quest_lives
- only to have them shelved by Trump's DOJ whether it was Jeff Sessions at the time or Later William Barr.jonny_quest_lives
- Trump was never able to reign in the FBI he tried like hell but the DOJ he got his ultimate Stooge in Barrjonny_quest_lives
- Meanwhile over in Homeland security he found another stooge in Chad Wolf... Between Barr and Wolf the priorities were feeding the Antifa narrativejonny_quest_lives

- so with those threats why was Chad Wolf and Homeland Security so obsessed with Antifa in Portland? Agitate and enrage Trump's militant supporters.jonny_quest_lives
- but to your original point there is a definite deflating of the power/ aura of US Intelligence agencies...jonny_quest_lives
- I feel it's directly attributable to the Trump Administration inability to lure any profession competent candidates to oversee these cabinet positionsjonny_quest_lives
- for the last four years as well as Republican leadership allowing him to staff critical law Enforcement Agencies with "Acting Directors"jonny_quest_lives
