Was last week’s attack on the US Capitol a fluke protest gone bad, or an inside job?
Top News Today
Donald Trump may hold the nuclear codes, but, he has already pressed the nuclear button. He lost court battle after court battle to seize the American election and resume power as a dictator. So, his last-ditch effort came last Wednesday with the MAGA terrorist attack on Capitol Hill.
Democratic and Republican lawmakers are collectively angry today. Not exclusively because they had to hide under desks last Wednesday while fearing for their lives because of a mad MAGA mob that came within mere feet of harming them. No! They’re angry because congressional investigations have begun to show that the Capitol Hill coup was an inside job.
Let’s take a look at what we know so far:
~ Out of 2,200 available Capitol police officers, only 500 officers were called in to work on Wednesday to protect a building where the Vice-President of the United States, the Speaker of the House, the Senate Majority Leader, and every elected representative and senator in the country were gathered.
~ The lone agency responsible for protecting the entire legislative branch of government watched thousands of Trump’s MAGA mob gather for an hour outside The White House, receive orders from Trump to march to Capitol Hill to “Stop The Steal,” then did absolutely nothing to prepare as thousands headed toward the building where the entire government line of succession was meeting.
~ Certain Capitol Police officers were captured on tape opening gates and doors to The Capitol and freely allowing rioters inside without recourse.
~ Nancy Pelosi and Mitch McConnell called for the IMMEDIATE resignations of the Capitol police chief and the Sergeant-at-arms of the House and the Senate for a reason.
~ A retired lieutenant colonel and other former members of the US military and multiple off-duty police officers were found to be active participants in the MAGA mob. In fact, the woman who was killed was an Air Force veteran.
~ The terrorists were able to find the SECRET and unmarked office of House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn because someone knowledgeable directed them there.
Further, why did the US Secret Service recently decide they will remove all (Trump) agents from White House detail on January 20th and replace them with agents who previously worked with Joe Biden while he was vice-president?
Also, why is Donald Trump leaving Washington on January 19th and skipping the inauguration? Could it be he knows a much bigger and more violent melee’ by his MAGA idiots is planned for Joe Biden’s big day?
The answers to these questions are very clear. This was NOT some fly-by-night show of force but an inside job. The MAGA mob showed up in riot gear, wearing gas masks, and carrying twist-tie handcuffs. Off-duty police officers loyal to Trump flashed their badges in order to slip security and gain entry into The Capitol. Despite the large and confusing structure housing both the House of Representatives and Senate, the terrorists were still able to find specific Democratic offices and wreak havoc. But, how?
The answer came on Monday when 2 Capitol police officers were suspended and at least 10-15 other officers were placed under investigation for their roles in the riot.
According to CNN, one of those officers was seen taking a selfie with rioters in the MAGA mob while another officer wore a “Make America Great Again” hat for identity and directed terrorists around the building.
Also on Monday, credible threats against the lives of president-elect Joe Biden, vice-president-elect Kamala Harris, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and against state capitals in all 50 states were discovered ahead of next week’s inauguration.
So, what’s really going on here?
According to 2 two NATO intelligence officials, Donald Trump had implicit support among US federal agencies responsible for securing the Capitol complex.
“We train alongside the US federal law enforcement to handle these very matters, and it’s obvious that large parts of any successful plan were just ignored,” the official said.
“The defeated president gives a speech to a group of supporters where he tells them he was robbed of the election, denounces his own administration’s members and party as traitors, and tells his supporters to storm the building where the voting is being held. The supporters, many dressed in military attire and waving revolutionary-style flags, then storm the building where the federal law-enforcement agencies controlled by the current president do not establish a security cordon, and the protesters quickly overwhelm the last line of police. The president then makes a public statement to the supporters attacking the Capitol that he loves them but doesn’t really tell them to stop,” the official continued.
“Today I am briefing my government that we believe with a reasonable level of certainty that Donald Trump attempted a coup that failed when the system did not buckle,” he concluded.
According to USA Today, the National Guard — which was heavily deployed during Black Lives Matter protests in 2020 — did not show up to assist the undermanned Capitol police for 2 hours.
In fact. not only did the Pentagon not have troops or National Guard units standing by at the ready, but evidence shows that the Department of Defense was also derelict in responding to urgent requests to deploy forces.
During a press conference last Thursday, Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan said he tried in vain to get top-level DoD officials to authorize sending in the Maryland National Guard to counter the insurrection, but they did not answer his multiple phone calls.
On Thursday, The Washington Post reported that the “Pentagon placed tight limits on the D.C. National Guard ahead of pro-Trump protests this week, trying to ensure the use of military force remained constrained.” Additionally, officials “prohibited the District’s guardsmen from receiving ammunition or riot gear” and taking other specific actions that would have helped them protect the Capitol.
The Post also reported that the Army denied a request by the chief of the Capitol Police for backup troops.
Is it becoming clear what happened here? Blood is thicker than water. Or, in this case, white supremacy and the desire to retain majority control are more important than democracy or that silly little document known as the constitution.

“This week’s Trump terrorist attack was not random. It wasn’t an accident. It was planned, aided, and abetted by certain members of the police, the military, and the Republican party. And it was only the dry run. This violent attack is not over…” – Michael Moore
.
The lack of preparation from security officials was not a simple bureaucratic miscue. It was intentional. Donald Trump deliberately and violently attempted to overturn a bonafide US election and now we know that several federal law-enforcement agencies and officials loyal to Trump helped facilitate the attempt. This was, plain and simple, an inside job.
So, if anyone thinks January 6th was bad, just wait until the inauguration on January 20th — or beyond. Or, in other words, January 6th was only the beginning. The worst is yet to come.
And with ALL of the evidence laid out before you, in Great detail…Your honor, the prosecution rests!!!
DJ my friend…you really outdid yourself with this one. Wow!
Well done. Well done…{Applauding}
