The frantic and frenetic atmosphere within the Capitol as a mob of Trump-supporting rioters overran its usually well secured halls is evident in the raw, contemporaneous reports journalists sent out Wednesday as the breach was underway.
They were totally within their rights to shoot this women (terrorist). She had already breached three police barriers and was attempting to enter an area where the representatives were sheltering in place. She had it coming. She betrayed her country. No tears for traitors. I wonder if her last thought was MAGA for ever or geez I fcked up?
Profiles in “Covering Your Own Ass” at the eleventh hour. Where was her conscience during all of the Trump criminality? She and Mitch are both corrupt to the core. No accolades for courage here, complicity is complicity. Growing a spine now after being spineless for so many years is just more cowardice. Shame on her forever.
More like she just doesn’t want to walk the plank and sign on for the 25th, rather than finding her conscience. Makes me sick. tRump should have been removed weeks ago. We saw this coming.
Moscow Mitch McConnell’s wife is only resigning because doing so personally helps for her and her husband. That is her resignation like everything else that couple does has nothing to do with America or Trump but rather what will help them increase their wealth and power.
Okay, this is all fake news! What really happened was the Capital police were busy trying to stop Nancy Pelosi and George Soros from attacking peaceful Trump supporters when a bunch of BLM protesters and Antifa members slipped in behind their backs and stormed the Capital. Were it not for the Pelosi/Soros distraction, none of this would have happened!
More like an indication that they are not going to invoke the 25th amendment. Those within the Republican party with the spines to oppose Trump have already left and/or are no longer in power.
Asking Republicans to “do the right thing for the country” has been the ultimate Lucy and Football moment for the last 4 years. Democrats are the only ones willing to do what is necessary to protect our country and democracy and I believe yesterday’s insurrection may have finely compelled even the most reluctant Democrat to do their duty.
This is actually the most disturbing part of this woman’s background. Apparently, she is active military of 14 years, and Air Force too, so she’s no dummy. To think there are many more like her is chilling. We need some serious house cleaning in our military and armed forces. This is unacceptable.
During the dubya administration she was Labor Secretary and according to my then union activists friends she did a shit job of that. But concern for labor by a republican admin is an oxymoron
I believe it was Martha Raddatz (yesterday) I saw. It was almost surreal how she really lit into the hypocrisy of lack of law enforcement presence and contrasted it with the almost-military occupation during the GeorgeFloyd protests. She was graphic in recounting the wall-to-wall National Guards stationed on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.
Yet, yesterday, the Trump-thugs were literally crawling up the walls of the Capitol building joining those already on the top.
