  1. Probably a good bet. Trump called him in the middle of the insurrection.
  2. The FBI and DOJ briefing said the trespass type charge is just an opening charge so they can grab them while doing the rest of their investigation. They said to expect more charges to be filed as their investigations develop.
  3. Yea, I told some guys at work something similar, the 6th was our Beer Hall Putsch. So many people are dismissive of the need for impeachment, especially since it wont be done before he leaves office. Getting him out of office now would have been nice, but keeping that orange idiot from taking office again is absolutely vital to putting an end to trumpism. Its a hell of a lot harder to grift and spool them up as the savior when we close that door for good.
  4. If these guys were involved with a college football team, this is usually when the NCAA starts licking its chops at all the evidence that’s about to drop in their lap.
  5. Gerrymandering has turned our representative government into a hyper partisan government. A congress person from a +-2 either way district is going to be a lot more concerned about being responsive to all their constituents. A +10 rep doesn’t give a fuck about the other party, and will vote like they have a mandate instead of admitting they are protected by fuckery.
  6. Bayern just lost to BuLi 2. Holstein Kiel and are out of the Pokal. They haven't had a clean sheet in the BuLi in 10 games. Flick and the board can no longer ignore the sieve that is the back end of this team. They need to spend some fucking money and bring in another CB, or stop playing a high line that is so susceptible to long balls. Sule, Boateng, Hernandez, and Alaba just don't have the pace to play that system.
  7. We still have a week, I think they should impeach him again. Really put that record to bed.
  8. So Zeldin just admitted that the president indicted a riot, but it should be okay because Democrats supported BLM?
  9. Back in the 90s they called it Creative Anachronism Point of order, it was the Society for Creative Anachronism. I got to make chain mail and shoot a recurve bow all in the same day.
  10. No, she's dangerous because she's a true believer. Lots of these clowns are grifting or just climbing the ladder. People like her are the ones who will wear a suicide vest.
  11. Its so reassuring that the republicans in the house cant operate a stop watch and a spreadsheet. Get it together Gym.
  12. Man you must be really old if you think D&D and Harry Potter are remotely connected.
  13. Gym is reserving a lot. They must plan to close with some serious long winded shit. Can someone speak more than once? Id be surprised they didnt use someone completely shameless and willing to lie like Gaetz as a closer.
  14. I dont know who teaches that fucking weird hand thing that most of these younger politicians do, but they need to be punched in the face.
  15. Yup, he will hold out expressly as a giant fuck you to Mitch and the Republican Party. He gives zero fucks about decorum, the office of the president, or the constitution. He is driven by greed, power, and grudges. If Mitch wants him out, he’s going to have to get his hands dirty.
  16. Yea, I guess that's the problem. Pelosi or someone should hold her and anyone else that went around them to account. Enforce the rules, or get rid of the detectors.
  17. Yep. There's also this: https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/38593/evacuations-during-capitol-siege-shine-light-on-vast-underground-tunnel-network With so many avenues of approach available, and the potential that the capitol police are sympathetic or outright supportive to this movement, the NG being in the building absolutely makes sense. The NG are simply a delaying force, the real heavy hitters like Capitol Police CERT, ATF and FBI SWAT, SS CAT would be the elements that would be nearby and ready to respond if shit gets real. My guess is at least one of those units is within the building(s) as a QRF with others on various levels of hot standby.
  18. Members have an exemption to carry weapons in the building, but they are prohibited from having them on the floor. So them bypassing the detectors to enter the building makes sense. Its a floor rule, so I don't think it would rise to the level of arrest, just like house rules about masks, decorum, etc. If there is a floor rule banning weapons, I don't know what the confusion is. Apply whatever sanctions are on the books at the people that violate it, or try to avoid the metal detectors to make enforcement possible. If they don't enforce it, I agree, its more political theater than actual concern about the rules.
  19. The advantage is fighting from inside a defensible position and fighting through people already on site. You're acting like there isn't a road system that leads directly to the capitol that some cars full of MAGA dudes couldn't exploit. The next event wont be a meandering bunch of Karens with some random hardcore guys that are livestreaming their jaunt to the capitol. It will likely be armed, organized, and focused on killing members of congress.
