Only the best people. But they must feel like there will never be any repercussions or recriminations so they can leave their bile in the wide open. Why not just wear their maga hats to work?

The headline is slightly misleading.

It says anti-Semitic text. No, it was anti-Semitic literature.

Maybe this is what Trump meant about very fine people on both sides?

Racism and anti Semitism go hand in hand.

So much for being a “security” post. Did they also find a copy of Mein Kampf? Or any T**** books?

“The Bureau (FBI) lacks an adequate strategy”.
…as a result of lacking the will.

Wray must go. Val Demmings would be the perfect replacement to head the FBI.

They also found a Special Edition Blu-ray of “Triumph of the Will”, an “SS” armband, a pair of jackboots, and 5 containers of Zyklon B. But the capitol police administration and FBI director Wray didn’t think it was worthy of investigation, since the officer was 7 shades lighter than beige.

Beating a dead horse here, but it’s ever more apparent a helluva large number of police and military are either Nazis, skinheads, or batshit crazy ammosexual militia types. All allegedly tasked to protect and serve. Protect and serve who?

And what does “suspended” mean? Off duty and getting a check I’ll bet. The book on that table is the holy grail of anti-antisemitism. It was written to slide bigotry into the mainstream. NO ONE has it unless they believe it and wish to advance it. He should be unemployed already.

It is a fabricated (what a surprise!) anti-Semitic tract first published in 1903 that has been used ever since to persecute the Jews.

And the next time you are out looking at a Ford F-10 truck or a Lincoln Continental, it’s an interesting American historical fact that industrialist Henry Ford had 500K copies of this vile shitpile of lies printed and distributed in this country in the 1920s. Ford Tough!

And yes, you don’t want to Google it.

History is a fit of starts and reactions…It is not the smooth Hollywood-esque tale of eventual justice for whichever hero is depicted.

And the reaction(s) to Trump will have its beneficial effects.

It had better, or our Republic will suffer.

Due process… After all, is it really inconceivable that the book belongs to Kevin McCarthy or Marjorie Taylor Greene and the officer simply confiscated it?

“Val Demings would be the perfect replacement to head the FBI.”

A black, female, progressive Democratic head of the FBI.

Besides the fact that I also believe she would be an excellent choice, the very idea that her nomination to the office by Biden and her confirmation to the post by the Senate would make Tucker Carlson’s eyeballs explode out of his ears on national TV would alone be worth it!
