The Democrats have overreacted big time to the January 6 riot, a riot that lasted two-and-a-half hours that they insist on calling an insurrection. They put up fencing around the Capitol building and they had National Guard troops standing guard for almost half a year. The soldiers are gone, but the fencing is still there.
We reported back in May how the Democrats, the media, and their pals were reading from the same talking points claiming that the January 6 Capitol riot was the “worst security breach on the Capitol since the War of 1812.” In our report, we gave details about five attacks on the Capitol ranging from guns to bombs from 1915 through 1998 alone. The media and elected officials are supposed to be the “smartest” people around, and they didn’t know about all the attacks on the Capital since the War of 1812? Of course, they knew. They were lying to you.
And they’re still lying. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi couldn’t get the votes to pass a 911-style commission to trash Republicans over January 6 all the way until the 2022 midterm elections so she created a select committee to do it instead.
This is the same woman who when asked about rioters toppling a statue of Christopher Columbus and tossing it into Baltimore Harbor said “people will do what they do.”
Fake News reporters are falling in line as well. Some reporters flaked out and cried during interviews with Vice, saying they can’t sleep anymore and are terrified to go to work. Really?
“It’s my office, the building I love most in the f**king world. I used to call the Capitol my girlfriend. I’ve devoted 15 years of my goddamn life to that building,” said freelance reporter Matt Laslo, choking up. “Now? I don’t want to be there.””

Wow. Someone needs to tell him that there are plenty of decaffeinated brands that are just as tasty as the real thing.
When the Democrats tried to create their commission with blanket authority over anything they wanted, including bypassing 4th Amendment privacy rights, Speaker Pelosi said January 6 “was one of the darkest days in our nation’s history. ” Please.
One NJ Democrat loser said he donated the suit he wore on the day he had to clean up after the January 6 riot to the Smithsonian. I’m shocked they accepted it.
6 months ago today I wore this blue suit as I cleaned the Capitol after the insurrection, now I just donated it to the Smithsonian. Jan6 must never be forgotten. While some try to erase history, I will fight to tell the story so it never happens again. Here is one story…(THREAD) pic.twitter.com/GKePd1ZMrr

The truth is the January 6 Capitol riot was a one-off event. The chances of it happening again are nil, and everyone knows it. So when you hear all these left-wing people acting like January 6 was another 911 you need to put things into perspective. Yes, the riot was scary for those who supported the theft of a presidential election. In the end, the only person killed as a direct result of the riot was an unarmed Air Force veteran named Ashli Babbitt who wasn’t a threat to anyone and was shot and murdered by a Capitol Police officer that the Democrats have been protecting by not giving out his name. There were several uniformed police officers standing right behind her. Well, his name is Capitol Police Lt. Mike Byrd and it’s amazing that he still has a job, not because he murdered an innocent woman but because he once left his firearm in a public restroom in the Capitol. He is the commander of the House Chambers section.
Why are no reporters interested at all in getting to get to the bottom of her murder? Don’t you mind it interesting that not a single one of them are asking questions?
The hype over that day is cringe-worthy, especially coming from people who supported nightly riots in Democrat-run cities across the country throughout the summer of 2020 where real damage was done, stores were looted, buildings were set on fire, double-digit number of people were murdered. The same Democrats refused to call them riots after lasting an entire summer and they’re going to continue to claim that a 2 and a half hour riot at the Captiol was the worst darkest day in our nation’s history?
One thing is clear. The Democrats will milk the January 6 riot for all it’s worth and your rights will suffer because of it. As they continue to have people who protested that day, but did nothing wrong, arrested and kept in solitary confinement, there was a little spoken of bipartisan report that came out by the top Republican and Democrat on both the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee and the Rules and Administration Committee that revealed the Capitol Police failed to protect the Capitol on January 6 and now six months later we just reported that the Capitol Police are expanding their operations to create field offices across the United States even though they do not have the jurisdiction to do so and even though they failed at their job the day of the riot.
Some questions you should ask your members of Congress would be why do they refuse to release any of the thousands of hours of video from the Capitol that day? Is it because it shows Capitol Police officers opening doors and waving people in and other video scenes where Capitol Police officers are seen removing the barricades and waving people through? And how come we don’t know the name of the officer who murdered Ashli Babbitt? Who were the FBI undercover agents that worked with a group that was plotting to breach the capital that day? How come we still don’t know who the guy is that laid pipe bombs down at the Democrat and Republican headquarters?
I think we should seriously demand that they stop all this hype about the 2 and a half hour riot on January 6 until they answer these basic questions.
