They wear pins, they can bypass security since as said the constitution says so.

You may recognize the pin because congresspeople always wear them when doing press stuff inside the capitol. Also Bernie wears it everywhere else because he appears to own one suitcoat and one winter coat.

After all the security nonsense, if I was a Dem member of the house of reps, I'd be REALLY antsy if a few of my republican colleagues decided to raise a fuss about being searched, or setting off a metal detector.

Whats the opposite of the kid who gets bullied on every day and tells you not to come in to school tomorrow, because you're alright, and everyone afterwords is like "I dunno why he would do this, he was such a quiet kid".

Like, you know a dude is gonna do something really stupid, and it's really obvious they're gonna do something really stupid and get someone else hurt and killed, but no one is gonna do anything to stop it, even though they know they'll do something really stupid.

Yes, aligned with beliefs that we know Russia has been pumping into American social media for a decade or more.

My point is that Russia is active, and we loving know what they're doing because we've been watching them do it in the open since 2016.

Well see - there was this event in the 90s involving a u-haul and a fed building. That was circa the same time frame of events in bumfuck Texas and some ridge in the rockies. But then, there was a day in September in 2001, and here we are.

And this meeting on Dec 21st, looms ever larger and larger now.

House Republicans meet with Trump to discuss overturning election results

quote:

President Donald Trump huddled with a group of congressional Republicans at the White House on Monday, where they strategized over a last-ditch effort to overturn the election results next month, according to several members who attended the meeting.

People who were there are some of the names that keep coming up over and over in this poo poo:
Trump and his "legal advisers"
Mo Brooks (R-AL)
Jody Hice (R-Ga.)
Jim Jordan (R-Ohio)
Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.)

Understanding that the investigation is still underway and that there will be likely a ton more people facing charges for the Capitol attack, I’m not comforted in knowing that if these idiots had 1/10th the security culture that anarchists and leftists use, that almost none of them would have been caught. I am worried that they’ll catch on, and future attacks or mob actions will be that much harder to monitor or interdict.

To that end, I also wonder if Parler should have been left up so it could be surveilled more easily. It’s going to be a lot harder to keep tabs on the far right via Telegram.
