This is funny because a number of those who stormed the Capitol yesterday had Nazi sympathizer shirts on yesterday and they had just left a rally where one of the speakers referred to the things Hitler “got right”.Originally Posted by DawgyNWindow
But yeah, using the word sedition is a tell tale sign of...something
Capitol Police (or impersonators) opened doors that allowed people to peaceably enter the building. Clear video evidence of this exists. Who authorized them to do that if the general public was not supposed to be in the building?
Why were some Capitol Police officers sent home Wednesday at 10:00 AM when there were in excess of a million people on the Ellipse and elsewhere?
Sounds like a coordinated effort to allow Wednesday's incident to occur to be able to use it as a political weapon.
It is too much to just be a set of coincidences.
The reaction of left-wingnuts and their co-conspirators has been completely totalitarian. They want to take over America, plain and simple, by squashing all dissent.
Sedition is what has been happening by left-wingnuts non-stop since Trump rode the escalator in Trump Tower.
Wingnuts are frequently seditious...they usually don't get encouragement from the current administration. Trial by combat and what not.

What Trump did was wrong, and what the people did at the capitol was wrong.. But to say that BLM or Antifa did over the summer did not get encouragement from local and national lawmakers is dishonest.
The violence over the summer was explicitly condemned by Biden on 3 separate occasions. Were there outliers? I'm sure there were. Just like Matt Gaetz saying it was ACTUALLY Antifa that stormed the capitol. I know the talking point on the right was that the left was fine with violence this summer, but the record says something different. Hell, I posted Biden's condemnations 3 or 4 times here and PD still says it didn't happen.

In something rare of late, FD made a somewhat correct statement. Biden may have condemned the violence, but there were lawmakers encouraging it. I think the highest "ranking" lawmaker was Maxine Waters.
Mayors of Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis, Kenosha, pulled police out of areas to allow protesters free reign.. Why did police not respond to the many examples of looting and vandalism/destruction/fires?
This was an AOC tweet just over a month ago...

The whole point of protesting is to make ppl uncomfortable.Activists take that discomfort w/ the status quo & advocate for concrete policy changes. Popular support often starts small & grows.To folks who complain protest demands make others uncomfortable... that’s the point.

Well, you get 1 out of 5 for that one.
CNN's Chris Cuomo wondered Tuesday night why people expect protests to be "polite and peaceful."
"Please, show me where it says that protests are supposed to be polite and peaceful," he said. "Because I can show you that outraged citizens are what made the country what she is and led to any major milestone. To be honest, this is not a tranquil time."

So only 1 of those quotes were "right"?
Yes.
Only Waters' comment comes close to advocating violence. Harris', Ocasio-Cortez', and Pelosi's comment were not advocating violence.
I will grant that Pressley's comment could go either way. I don't think it advocates violence since the full comment was about making calls, sending emails, and showing up (being involved).
Interesting that the Anti-Defamation League warned that these pro-Trumpers were planning violence a couple days in advance.

And this is why concession is a duty of a leader when they lose.
