The Capitol Police are definitely going to read this memo. On February 3rd.

If they come into WDC armed shoot them.
If they try to break down the barricades shoot them.
If they back Trump shoot them just for shits and giggles.

The National Guard / DC Police need to bring a vehicle shredder to the Capitol grounds this week in anticipation of the Boogaloo Bois or whomever showing up armed to riot.

The Guard / Police can confiscate weapons and shred them on-site and hand the remains back to the seditionists. Confiscation may be unlawful, but who cares at this point.

…and yet many members on the GOP side of the House are STILL deliberately goading and blaming and lying and inciting…they haven’t learned a damn thing.

The Secret Service?
Aren’t they investigating one-of-their-own…for posting on Facebook- pro-trump messages and blaming Antifa for the Capitol Riots?

They can’t. Any idea that doesn’t resonate with their egos will forever remain unfathomable to them. No come to Jesus moments for this bunch of cretins.

Did the Secret Service flag how many of the insurrection attempts will be led by their agents?

There have to be a lot of people looking into their organizations right now. Secret Service is not a small number. Per the wiki, they alone represent 7K + people. Looking for a 5th Column element has to be high on their list of to-dos.

At what point does the FBI get a warrant to listen in on certain Republican congressmen? I think we’re already there.

Might also wanna start with a meeting the leader of the Proud Boys, Enrique Tarrio, had at the WH. A guy with a felony background was given a pass to get inside the gates and come inside the building for a visit in December. Surely the Secret Service were already aware of that and didn’t think to get in the way to stop him. Somebody had to approve that, don’t ya think?

So many possibilities of who invited him in… Stephen Miller, Mark Meadows, Donnie himself…

Quieter and more portable.

Does a great job. I’ve actually cut an old road grader into scrap iron with a cutting torch back in the 70s. Frame, blade and all. Just cut into the firing chamber and that gun is never going to fire again.

I bet because of this huge build up in troops in DC, nary a brave insurrectionist will have the courage to show up. They’re now the underdogs.

I bet you’re right. The Mama’s Boy Militia really doesn’t want to confront a whole city full of armed LE.

I call bullshit on the Secret Service’s concerns about shutting down Parler giving them less ‘situational awareness.’ The problem wasn’t lack of awareness, it was lack of taking action on the intel. They’re going to use 1/6 to create even more surveillance of the American people - while not even bothering to weed out the participants in their own ranks

Problem is, does this split them out to the Capitals, since D.C. is too heavily guarded, and they just decide to splinter and attack multiple targets.

The authorities can’t make everywhere secure all at once.

NICE! I like your thinking.

Local authorities can secure state capitals.
