We, like you, are watching the news coming out of the US capitol today, as Trump supporters execute the mob rule portion of the Half-assed Coup. But unlike most people, apparently, we’ve been expecting this kind of thing for 5 years. We’re all gobsmacked at the amount of disbelief we’re seeing from the news media and our liberal friends and families. Even Michael Morello says that in his position as both deputy director and acting director of the CIA, they never, ever thought that such a naughty thing would occur in the USA. (If the CIA would like to consult with us, we’d be happy to do that, but you will have to pay us. A lot.)
This is just another Trump rally. This has been going on for 5 years. This is just the first time the rally has happened at a place that white, moneyed America has cared about. The fact that you all are freaking out about this particular event just speaks to how little attention you’ve been paying, and how little you’ve thought about what’s going on. This isn’t even the first time these clowns have killed someone.
From our perspective, we are relieved about a couple of things.
First off, we are relieved that Trump’s posse is just as stupid as he is. They actually had some real leverage for a while there, but they pissed it away with their usual clowning around. I won’t get into more detail because I don’t want to give them any ideas, but this could have been so much worse.
Second, we’re pleased with the fact that the left has stayed out of it. There’s absolutely no reason for any leftist to try to defend the Biden government, but there are compelling moral reasons to show up to an event like this — especially since the police completely failed to act for hours. They let this go on for hours.
Politicos and newsies are both using the right word for this: Insurrection.
Had this been a BLM rally, for example, the police would have beaten and arrested hundreds of people — even if they didn’t enter the capitol building – but these Trump clowns are the cops’ buddies so they just let it keep going. We will be very interested to see if anyone faces charges for this event. Rudy Giuliani actually told the mob, “It’s time for trial by combat!” That is undoubtedly inciting insurrection.
The last time I looked, the penalty for insurrection in the USA is death. It doesn’t matter if the way you carried out the insurrection was stupid — the penalty remains the same. How many of these insurrectionist clowns will be executed? My bet is none.
