Damn, I know it was a long shot, but I was getting hopeful with the reports that Pence was pissed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely there is a chain of command and the next in line would have full powers? Yeah, I'm spitballing cause I don't know how it works, but I can't imagine there would be a vacuum in a transition. Someone has to make decisions. Honestly, as with so many things under Trump, the answer is 'maybe' and 'we don't know'. A whole lot of the mechanisms for government have never been tested, and as any systems person can tell you it really isn't a great time to test things and how they work when you're in the middle of a crisis.

Mindwalker Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 https://www.instagram.com/p/CJwAlGBBXyJ/ Last Saturday, Richard Barnett of Gravette, Ark., criticized Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in a Facebook post for using the description “white nationalist” as a “derogatory term.” Just four days later, Barnett was photographed sitting with his feet up on a desk in Pelosi’s office at the U.S. Capitol — an image that quickly became emblematic of the chaotic storming of the complex by a pro-Trump mob. Barnett, who is 60 and goes by the nickname “Bigo,” identified himself as the intruder in Pelosi’s office to New York Times reporter Matthew Rosenberg later on Wednesday. Barnett, who was photographed outside the Capitol holding an envelope he said he removed from Pelosi’s office, said he had taken the envelope because he had bled on it. “I put a quarter on the desk because I’m not a thief,” he told Arkansas television station 5News. Barnett is a Trump supporter and gun rights advocate who has repeatedly shared false claims via social media that the election was stolen, according to a Post review of two Facebook accounts tied to Barnett. In one post, Barnett falsely asserted that there were “mountains of evidence” of voter fraud. In a Dec. 28 Facebook post on one page, Barnett announced he would be attending Wednesday’s rally and urged fellow Arkansans to make sacrifices to join him there. “This is OUR COUNTRY!!!,” he wrote. “Can you give one day from the Internet or work or whatever to be active.” He added, “Get the f--- up people. Please STAND!!! If not now, when?” In a separate post the same day, Barnett wrote that he “came into this world kicking and screaming, covered in someone else’s blood,” adding, “I’m not afraid to go out the same way.” The post was accompanied by a selfie of Barnett with a rifle strapped to his chest.

Not surprising. I'm sure the list on conservative reddit of what makes one a Chinese Communist is pretty long and encompassing. Probably easier to just list what doesn't make one a Chinese Communist.

They should have been kettled into a small space and beaten on TV for the benefit of other traitorous MAGA chuds. The one veteran traitor who was shot should be posthumously given a dishonorable discharge, have her military benefits yanked from her family, and her body dumped in international waters for the sharks. Alas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Anti-Targ Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 2 hours ago, Zorral said: But though they thanked the cops they did not thank these people. They too should get medals of honor and freedom. Quote Somehow, Capitol food service operations still appeared to be up and running through the melee. At 4 p.m. and 5 p.m., hundreds of box lunches and bottles of water were rolled into the holding spot. Senators, staff, media and police wielding automatic weapons grabbed lunches of chicken and beef. I don't think so, there was no vegetarian or vegan option, the left should cancel them. /jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
