Military and law enforcement preparing for ongoing, violent attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election are bracing for the use of explosives over the next week.
Klete Keller, a five-time Olympic medalist and one-time teammate of famed swimmer Michael Phelps, was recognized by members of the swimming community in the crowd that breached the U.S. Capitol last week, according to several news outlets.
The six-foot-six swimmer appears to be the man towering over the mob that clashed with police inside the Capitol Rotunda, being jostled about and wearing a Team USA jacket, in a video posted by Townhall reporter Julio Rosas. Swimming website SwimSwam first reported it was Keller on Monday.

Many NGs are men and women in lower paying jobs with poor benefits. The Guard gives those benefits. For instance the guys taking their picture with the Rosa Parks statue.
As a draftee in 1969 I had little respect for the NG. This is a different era.
