  1. Please focus on no trump supporters working on duty on Jan 20! We need to buff up but not allow half of them to be trump loyalists, Thanks!

    1. @M Crawford sorry I don’t have the keyboard experience you people do plus tablets are harder to use than a laptop is for me. My skills are more real world. I dont spend a lot of time online serving China by taking freedom of speech from my fellow Americans. Don’t worry your new masters will take good care of you. Until they no longer find you useful. Im afraid good spelling won’t save you .

  2. There were trained military men and off duty police hidden in that crazy mob. We can’t be too careful in the next weeks. Move the ceremony at the last minute to a new location.

    1. What’s the problem with trained military and off duty police there? They can’t go anywhere or do anything?

    2. @Randy Ross Ofcourse they are. I’d say 95 plus percent of law enforcement hate the left and for good reason. You make them out to be the enemy expect them to feel the same towards you.

    1. @Mike Newman don’t worry anything happens to any one of those three and I’m making it a personal life goal to hunt and down as many trumpers as I can

    2. @James Moran I wasn’t debating conspiracies around Kennedy’s Assassination. I was referring to the change of venue.

  3. If Barry McCaffrey says that you need to prepare for more violence, I’d listen!! This guy has earned his stripes!!

    1. @Buddha’s magic mushroom forget praying, first the nazis must be jailed or shot dead and then if you like you can pray for their souls.

    2. @Len Ryan Stop playing the victim. I have friends and acquaintances who support Trump but not what he motivated. My friends and acquaintances are not nazis, fascists, uneducated or deplorable. They’re just not as smart as me. 🙂
      Nevertheless, my friends and acquaintances believe Trump has pushed this ‘fraud’ controversy to such an extreme that he’s actually put lives at risk of harm and even death.
      Although they don’t want to be associated with the recent travesty anymore they do intend to stay republicans but confess they would never vote for Trump if he should ever run for presidency again.

    3. @Zaros Kujala well thats their beliefs. Its a free wold. Well atm still is. It doesn’t mean i have to believe it. The result was never going to change so he probably should have dropped off. If democrats never won the cry babies would have burnt America to the ground. Thats why the businesses got boarded up in november. It wasnt for if trump lost because he did and there were no riots. Biden is the weakest president in history. Harris was raising money to bail out arrested rioters in minneapolis. She isnt a leaders a-hole. She was selected on identity politics. Thats ridiculous.

    4. @marvigli19 Like religion, prayers are different and sacred to everyone. But for me, prayers are not an excuse to ignore or accept the darkness that surrounds me, but rather a way to receive guidance and connect to the powers and energies of the universe.

      It’s possible to place logical action and spirituality together. Nazis, or any hateful ideologies will never win. If the time comes for America to fight, we will fight against them, and we will win. And yes, I will pray while we do it. It’s not about putting it in hands of the Universe, or assuming the Universe will fight for America, it won’t. But through prayer, the Universe gives us the strength, resilience, power, and guidance to do so. We must take action against hate, and if you’re religious you can pray while you do it. May you stay safe and strong. 🙏🇺🇸🍄

    1. Yeah, too much importance attached to “ceremonies” for Pete’s sake. It’s a job: a person doing a job. Let Joe Biden swear an oath in front of a couple of witnesses, and then get to work. This practice of elevating politicians to a special status, with far too much admiration, income and power, is part of the attraction for psychos like DT. Maybe it is time to tone it all down and treat them like the government employees they are.

    1. if Biden wins..he sits there with his lapdog Mr Obama …lets not forget steel beams dont melt…in other news George Bush is that good that he can read children’s books..upside down.

      you have communism knocking on your door

  4. Watchout! Trump rottings has come on deep inside federal institutions! Need a complete overhaul of personnel! Watch your backs!

    1. @JZ’s Best Friend the tRumpites are calling for a million member militia not only in DC but also in the state capitols!

    2. @Edward Miessner Well, a second civil war has been predicted by many as very likely to happen. I guess that alleged call to insurrection is just another confirmation of that.

    1. @Jaye Cann so that’s good , these people are insane for what purpose it’s not for themselves or trump , b/c the election is over & counted you can’t go back & say i want a do over b/c it didn’t go your way grow up be a man trump & admit you effed up

    2. @Nicholas Parker Yes, this pandemic came from China. But banning people from China wouldn’t go to the source of most epidemics and pandemics (including the one in 1918.) Namely, animal exploitation, especially factory farmed animal agriculture! Before COVID-19 was swine flus, bird (avian) flus, Ebola, HIV/AIDS, and more. We do not need meat, dairy or eggs to thrive! These are facts, not conjecture. Standard practice in factory farmed meat will lead to a pathogen which is resistant to antibiotics. It is only a matter of time. That would make COVID-19 look insignificant. Links to credible evidence on request.

    3. @Rodney adam Shortnacy I’m sure Biden would be willing to risk his life for his country. On the other hand, risking it for no reason by holding the inauguration outdoors is not worth it. He has to be sworn in before he can turn the country around!

    1. well, if you had a coup attempt, shouldnt the intelligence known about it? I mean.. thats the whole point of intelligence..

    2. You love to repeat what others say. Look up the meaning of that word. You are a disgrace to the democrats

    3. Business Insider reported that the European Intelligence agencies found out that the Federal law enforcement agencies were in on the 1/6/2021 Capitol Hill Putsch. Scary AF

    1. I know their words the same things will happen just like at the RNC or all summer long. Liberals are such hypocrites

    1. They must be stomped. Biden MUST NOT be intimidated! We CANNOT hand them ANY species of, “victory!” Absolutely NOT! It’s too DANGEROUS to risk making them feel like they have power! Mow them down, if necessary? They need to SEE they have NO POWER!

    2. @Ash Roskell you think biden is scared f no he’s been through worse than this obviously you wasn’t born yet , just a child

    3. @Ash Roskell WHY are YOU writing EVERY comment like THIS? WE can UNDERSTAND text WITHOUT having every SECOND word in CAPSLOCK even IF you INTEND to EMPHASIZE the KEY words.

    1. Trumps apology to the nation: The experts [I pulled out of the air] say I did nothing wrong. Translation, prepare for the worst.

    2. @Jeremiah Jenkins It should have never been just cops there. Where were the troops, the National Gaurd? And who are u ppl?

  5. General mccaffery has reason to be concern no one really knows who else is and was involved in this riot,please don’t take any chances.

  6. They literally let them in the Capitol. They didn’t really have to force themselves in, the door was opened and they stood by and watched them walk in. There’s video footage all over YouTube about it. Watch it.

    1. What was stupid was allowing a permit to allow a stop the steal by a person who thinks he was cheated while the winner is being sworn into office…it is like telling your kids to play in the free way because you don’t want them around

    2. @Kevvy Kev This is an extremly rude comment. From the outside the storming of the Capitol looked moderate and at first like a very distasteful prank. I watched the live broadcasting of the incident and in the first hours the pictures were not showing violence. This came hours later when more information was available and I suppose for those who weren’t in the Capitol and waited on the outside it might have been like a ‘small little happening’. We don’t have to discuss on how stupid the idea is to storm a states parliament or what harm it brings to your society. That the riot was peaceful is not true, we know now what some of the rioters had planned. But what I have to say to Mrs. Forbes: Using ones ‘feeling’ to relativize the violence, the killing that happend and the intent of the people is not okay.

  7. If the location is changed, it shouldn’t be made public, don’t give Trumps supporters a heads up. This should all be Top security.

    1. @Ash Roskell I agree with you. The risk will be great, but this will show the world that we will not bow to the suppression of an angry irresponsible actions of the uber conservative right wind extremists. Biden et al must stand tall and show some degree of normalcy
