The fact he got as many votes as he did, especially with Hispanics and Blacks, shows how out of touch progressives are.
This is what you're talking about today? How "out of touch" progressives are? This is mind numbing in it's detachment from reality. We have a party who are full throttle against democracy, failing to uphold their oath to the COTUS who are still contesting the election after our president incited seditious acts and you're talking about liberals and how out of touch they are. JFC, get a grip.

I would expect resignations in the next few days as well. I think we may have finally reached a tipping point with this event.

Trump's account has been locked down for the next 12 hours for him to clean it up. He should be entirely removed from the platform IMO.

SG is trolling right? Yeah, Capitol Police/security deserved to be criticzed. But that's like totally ignoring the root cause of the damn thing. Which is that a certain someone incited a bunch of people and riled them up and more or less told them to do this.
Fuck off SG for supporting or blaming anyone other than Trump and his supporters.
It's a pivot and the usual "Both sides" bullshit these appeasers and excuse makers have been doing for years. I keep thinking there is a line in the sand for these people, but there is not.

It seems like the National Guard has been deployed now and that earlier report was wrong. They got deployed after Pelosi requested it, apparntly.
Great news. Hope they can clear this up immediately.

I hope this isn't true...but why wouldn't it be? Watch how they treat the white southerners when they get unruly.
Much like that kid in Wisconsin...very gentle...probably won't even be charged with anything.
The time for that shit is over. They need guns drawn and removed by force.
I have not confirmed that yet, but I'm seeing it from multiple sources. That said, I don't see the National Guard there yet, which tends to say some part of it is correct. Why the hell aren't they? If not now, then when???
