Breach of the Capitol: Consequences, Repercussions & Reactions

[SimplyMe]

“The person that shot Ashli Babbitt — boom, right through the head,” Trump said. “Just, boom. There was no reason for that. And why isn’t that person being opened up, and why isn’t that being studied? They’ve already written it off. They said that case is closed. If that were the opposite, that case would be going on for years and years, and it would not be pretty.”

The comments by Trump, Gosar and others also echo those of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who last month raised Babbitt’s death in an interview with NBC News.

As I stated in another thread, odd that it was Trump's DoJ, while Trump was still President, that cleared the officer and that Trump didn't object and tell them to investigate for longer.

Around 11 p.m. ET on January 6, Rep. Andy Kim was walking around the US Capitol with a trash bag in hand, trying to clean up after insurrectionists ransacked the building just hours earlier, when the New Jersey Democrat came across a plaque commemorating the cornerstone of the Capitol laid by George Washington.

Six months after the attack, Kim announced that he would be donating the suit he wore in the now infamous moment he was captured cleaning up the damage done to the Capitol to the Smithsonian as the museum builds its exhibit documenting what happened on January 6.

I can't think of a better metaphor for our country's need to clean up the mess that Donald left in his wake.

Mo Brooks blames Trump for his appearance at Capitol rally, saying he only spoke because the White House told him to

Did the Trump admin. write the speech or are those his [Mo Brooks] own words?

Florida PE teacher arrested for storming the Capitol.

Kenneth John Reda, 54, was arrested by FBI agents Tuesday morning on charges of illegally entering Capitol grounds and disorderly conduct.

According to the criminal complaint from the FBI, investigators received a tip on Jan. 18 with a screenshot of messages on Parler, the far-right social networking site. The tipster claimed one of the commenters, under the screen name “mrjoebidenhead,” was Reda admitting to being inside the Capitol on Jan. 6. Records obtained from Parler, LLC later confirmed that the account belongs to Reda, according to the criminal complaint.

The biography for “mrjoebidenhead” reads, “Imperfect Son of the Lord Jesus Christ, Husband, Father, Son, Pop, Educator, concerned American NRA & 2A supporter: WWG1WGA.”

Justice Department releases videos of 1/6 cop-dragging attack near pro-Trump rioter who died

The Justice Department released new police body camera footage Friday showing one of the most disturbing assaults during the Capitol insurrection -- where three officers waded into the crowd to save a pro-Trump rioter who was trampled, only to be stripped of their protective gear, dragged down a set of stairs and attacked with crutches, flagpoles, batons and bare hands.

Officer AW stepped out of a tunnel where police were congregated and into the crowd to help Rosanne Boyland, 34, a rioter and QAnon supporter who was trampled by the mob. She died of an accidental drug overdose, according to Washington, DC's chief medical examiner. Boyland's body is seen in some of the new videos, which also show her friend screaming for assistance.

Certain Republicans are literally pro-insurrectionist.

Florida Republicans to host rally calling for Jan. 6 insurrectionists to be released

The “Free Our Patriots Rally in Tally” will be Saturday and is hosted by Luis Miguel, a far-right Republican candidate looking to primary Sen. Marco Rubio. “Folks, The patriots who have been hunted down by the corrupt, communist FBI are suffering. Many of them are veterans who fought for this nation,” tweeted Miguel. “Let’s do our part to ensure they’re liberated. We can’t allow this in America. Be there at the Florida Capitol on July 10.

Tampa Bay Republican and two-time congressional failure Christine Quinn has also publicly stated that she will attend the event.

“Join me to support our Patriots that have been unlawfully arrested and detained without due cause,” posted Quinn to her Instagram account. Like Miguel, Quinn has consistently denied that Joe Biden won the 2020 election, and she also continues to deny that she lost her own election to District 14 Congresswoman Kathy Castor who won more than 60% of the votes.

Aren't people who attempted to violently overthrow the government the complete opposite of patriots?

Pauline Bauer, a Pennsylvania pizzeria owner, is accused of multiple counts of violent entry, disruptive conduct, and obstruction of Congress after she allegedly broke into the Capitol on Jan. 6. Prosecutors allege that Bauer tried organizing buses to transport people to D.C. for a rally that preceded the riot, and that while in the Capitol rotunda she told police that she wanted to kill House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. [she expressed herself in language that precludes a link]

“I am here by special divine appearance, a living soul,” she told a judge that day, while stating that she did not want an attorney.

“I do not stand under the law,” she said. “Under Genesis 1, God gave man dominion over the law.”
