someone who Trump repeatedly claimed supported al-Qaeda and hated jews, lets not forget

Indeed. She was an assassination risk already; incredible bravery, massive respect to her.

@Death Check out this image and tell me there is no reason to shut this protest out

Glad it is being done. Not sure she is the one I'd prefer to draw up the articles.

Screw thr 25th Amendment talk. Impeach him and make the GOP vote.

Which would be smart, as it would politically tar any member of the GOP who voted against and, by doing so, implicitly supporting what happened today.

 

[Death]

did you not see the bit where he said "we" were going to march to the capitol and encourage the good Republicans?

No tsubaki. Genuinely having been following politics over the xmas. Or now so it's all coming at me through here.

Long as that is for Trump I can live with it...

 

[dead_soft]

Erm... you are. You obviously are.

Ha ha ha. What?

 

[tsubaki]

No fn clue. Was made multiple times today, 1 of the 3 branches of the federal government of America was ENTIRELY in that building today. No resistance at all from the people meant to be protecting them at all.

TBF the equipment of those cops was completely and utterly unsuitable for what was going to happen. Loads of them were on pushbikes ffs. Even here, with an (almost) all unarmed police, they'd be more tooled up than that.

Are they enforcing a curfew on a protest? America suppressing more protests as usual. A police state as always.

You on one hand say you don't know what is going on and then follow up with suppressing protests. Which is it?

Maybe turn on the news or read back through here before making silly comments.

Storming a government building is an offense. That's what they did. It surpassed being a peaceful protest when they entered entered building and injured cops

DC has a curfew imposed. National Guard has been called in and according to our fave mod is under control of Virginia governor. Part of the issue is DC is a federal district and not in the control of any actual state. And the mayor has limited control to police federal sites.

This isn't a "protest" you tool its an attempted coup

 

[AndyC]

I don't give a fk what you think either but one most state the truth. You are the pig, a big marrano that should be roasted

And @zzr45 - that's quite enough the bad language and personal abuse.
Current Affairs forum or not, any more and one of both of you will be taking a holiday !!!

 

[Death]

Maybe if it were a protest. But it's somewhere between sedition and a coup so you know maybe suppressing it is the thing to do.

That's what them scumbags said about "sedating" BLM

The cliffnotes - Trump lost, spent a month saying he hadn't lost, his base bought the lie, think the election was stolen, Democrats won the Senate today, MAGA Trump supporters went down to Washington, rioted, broke into and smashed up the Capitol Building, Trump egged them on.

 

[Death]

This isn't a "protest" you tool its an attempted coup

I wish.
