Wow! Nancy Cordes of CBS is reporting that a Congressperson has stated they saw members of Congress giving tours (recognizance tours) to probable insurrectionists the day before the riot. Whats important about this is guests as a whole are currently forbidden from entering the Hall due to coronavirus, so 'guests' shouldn't be there regardless, however very coincidental it occured the day before, essentially giving some a 'tour'. She said obviously this info was passed on to investigators. Huge if true.
Also apparently Congress now set up metal detectors to enter the House floor. Republicans were apparently pissed about this as they showed up last night. Only Congress & very few senior aides are allowed on the chamber anyway, however its likely targeted at the new Q'anon members, mostly this Lauren Boebert who put out a video (before the riot) claiming she's going to Conceal Carry in DC. Sounds like Pelosi just out to embarrass her & make an example of her, however seems to be a thing playing out in her favor in my mind. All this talk kinda backfired on Republicans as I don't think Americans want Congress bringing guns into the House chambers right now.

We were planning to shut down the Capitol Building but the authorities were so scared of this #WomensWave that they shut it down for us.

You don't see a line between that, and this:
The attack on the Capitol was coordinated and planned.

Never heard of him. I do like reading psychology & 'self help' type books. I'll check him out.

I don't, can't say I have interest in it. It crosses my mind now & then tho. When I read things like 'Look inside and ask if you can pull the trigger' or 'Be sure your gonna use it', not trying to say I'm anti-gun or a pacifist, I think something else is I don't wanna use it at the wrong time.

I think the issue with parlor is they did a horrible job monitoring and censoring posts and accounts. Whereas FB & twitter actively monitored it, methods to 'Report' posts, delete accounts etc. Parlor welcomed those miscreants, and capitalized on it.
I guess its like Backpage, a 'fake' craigslist site that was mostly just prostitution. I read where some hacker type archived almost all of Parlor in the final 24 hours, and is submitted it to the feds to investigate. Also, anyone go on FB and search '#noflylist'? Pretty funny videos on there, word is that because the Capitol Building is so large and there's a downstairs offices and meeting rooms to it, it has its own cell towers, so when you enter it pings you. Supposedly the feds ran reports of anyone who pinged inside, and placed them on the No Fly List.

I don't get it, awful. The owners talking now. GM &ownership won't be able to find a head coach willing to walk in without control on players. We're looking at assistant, assistant coaches.

We're living in crazy times.
The 2020s may be like the 1960s...but worse.
I have a feeling 5-10 years from now this quote will become quite prophetic.

Biden will try to spend way more than that. He told you that yesterday!
How so?
The most ever spent before was $1.5 Trillion to recover from the 2008 Too Big To Fail collapse.

You're missing the point.
One was ignited by cops unjustly killing a man.
The other was incited by a sitting President based on bs.BLM protesters had a very valid reason to protest and was a result of dirty cops.
Trumpsters are protesting based on lies fed by Trump.One can be justified regardless if you/i agree with it or not there is a cause there.
The other is simply unjustifiable.Imo.
This pretty much sums it up. To add to it, one happened. Yeah, maybe democratic politicians could've asked for calming, however trump outright shouted for this to happen minutes before. Heck, even calling people down to a rally for this stupid stuff. There was no voter fraud, its the most long shot attempt at trying to stay in power, its absurd.
