I'm sure most of the people evecuated know to lock that stuff up but seeing a terrorist just sitting at Nancy Pelosi's desk with all her paperwork sitting there is frightening. Who knows what kind of material is laying around in various offices around the buildings?

I was thinking this too, but there is no way it’s any more of a national security threat than a booted Trump family.

These MAGAs believe their cause every bit as noble as BLM if not more so, so to them, if it was okay then, it is okay now.

Unfortunately the overwhelming silent majority thinks both these groups of radicals are terrible but are afraid to say anything.

It is unfashionable to to look at your own actions as contributing to the mess. The culpability must ALWAYS be entirely with the other guys.

The idea that Republicans are the only only ones that have "stoked hate for decades" is preposterous.

Spoiler!

BOTH SIDES, MANY SIDES!

Amazing, really. Remarkable.

There are good people on both sides.

Remind me when the entire BLM movement was predicated on an international cabal of Jewish billionaires, politicians and celebrities running an underground adrenochrome harvesting ring.

I can't imagine anyone would consider bomb threats, riots, shootings, chaos, disorder and extremism as remarkable and amazing unless they are now purposely trying to make a point about it.

But please, put me in my place.

My god. Joe Biden looks like a dude who is wondering WTF has happened to his country. His face/voice/body language was undeniable, especially at the end of that press conference. He's completely taken aback by all this. Like he's been forced to watch the repeated raping and pilaging of lady liberty and democracy and now he's in shock.

I really don't like that quote.

This IS the United States today, and burying your head in the sand isn't going to address the underlying issues, and it WILL get worse.

I won't speak for BoLevi but when the mainstream media and left normalized wanton destruction of property and violence in the name of a "righteous" cause and kowtowed to antifa (Portland, Chaz) people shouldn't be surprised when another group of people, who believe their cause to be righteous and just, resort to violence and intimidation as well.

this is what most of us were trying to say 6-8months ago. Rioting is wrong, call it a ####ing riot. Punish those who aren't being peaceful. But they didn't, they gaslit the #### out of everyone.
