    1. Good luck with that. I wouldn’t hold my breath. The odds i think of trump confessing are better. 🤷‍♂

    1. @Deborah Freedman Morals? The guy commits 1 crime after the next – what morals? Can’t be burdened by morals which he doesn’t believe in – he thinks he’s above the law and the rest of us aren’t.

    2. Thankfully it’s not a matter of belief. We have testimony by Republicans stating it, as well as a huge amount of online communications regarding it.

  1. Sounds like the Secret Service is no longer a neutral party in service to the Constitution. Sounds more like henchmen, not protectors.

  2. This needs to be thoroughly investigated. Who inside the Government stopped the information being passed on to those responsible for the safety and security of the Capitol.

    1. No matter who your king is, there will always be another king over him. You are locked in a chain from thoughts in your head to grassroots corruption that is cultivated throughout the vertical of power. This little world (sandbox) was artificially created for you in which you live and you are forbidden to leave it. Don ‘t separate from the team )

    2. @Bad Noxin well, how about she is smart and thought ahead? Sheesh. Doesn’t mean she knew what was going to happen. Stop with the projecting.

    1. @Sandburg Martin Clean house completely with lateral transfers. Then the ones that get transferred back when Trump’s re-elected are the ones to worry about the most…

  3. “A great democracy has got to be progressive or it will soon cease to be great or a democracy.” Theodore Roosevelt Jr. (1858-1919) take d trump into custody and make an example out of him with a life sentence in ADX Florence. No one above the law? America has an opportunity to prove that…

  4. Everyone knew. The mayor of DC requested NG support. 340 NG were sent to DC. However they we ask to direct traffic and secure metro stations. After the riot started the mayor request addition NG troops. 1100 we called up. The SS has nothing to do with the NG so who made the decision to use them as traffic control?

    1. @Chris Gorszczyk Stalin asked Roosevelt: “What is democracy, is it the power of the people?”, Roosevelt replied: “democracy is the power of the American people” )

  5. Nice to know whose side the Secret Service is on. Whoever is in charge of them along with his allies should be fired and put on trial for letting Trump not only get away with this, but for allowing him to do this as well.

  6. I love the way Schumer and McConnell were of one mind, at least for that one day. I wish it didn’t take an insurrection, to bring together party leaders.

  7. Gonna say it Again ! Even Stevie Wonder could see with how the capitol police,local D.C. police,secret service agents,etc reacted to the January 6th Bumrush of the capital building ,that they were Told by superiors to Stand Down .

  8. I literally remember hearing about this really early on…no one was talking it seriously. These videos are new, but the info about secret service (and FBI I believe) not new.

  9. Ya, they’re a law enforcement agency that is paid to protect assets and has a budget to look out for threats to their assets. Confirmation is nice, but anyone who was horrified on January 6th already knew that law enforcement stood by for some unknown reason(that likely is covered in fake bronzer, and has a terrible orange toupee) and let it all happen.

  10. It is ludicrous to me that the question has to be asked if it was negligence or malice on the part of the Secret Service.

    1. I think that what is happening in the world and specifically in your country now, it will be a shame even to write into history. Therefore, they do not hope that this will be written into history, they will erase this world from the face of the earth because of shame. Then it won’t be as funny as it seems.

  11. I look forward to following the life and times of Officer Fanone moving forward. Thank you, sir, for your honorable service and for championing those who are trying to save our democracy. Bravo.
