NY Times Confirms: ‘Stand Down’ Order Given to Capitol Police During January 6th Riot

Congress controls and directs the Capitol Police.

 

Congress has oversight of the Capital Police, they do not have daily operational control.

 

shhhh....dont get in the way of a good lie....republicans love lies

 

So your saying that the rioters DID come to overthrow the government ?

But you make up a "dems made the capital police stand down" and thats the focus ? Not that the republicans actually DID come to overthrow the government ?

JFC your not serious here.......

 

So let me get this straight....... democrats are bad for not stopping an attempt to overthrow the government by Trump supporters ?

Seriously ? Your thread is to blame democrats for not stopping an attempted coup, but let's not focus on the coup.......

Psssttttt......this report DESTROYS the right wing talking points and excuses, and literally says they came to overthrow the government, but in your world, the real problem was the Capital Police (not congress) for not stopping it ?

 

You folks are just full of hyperbolic vigor! Seriously, This is a coup with little damage to the physical structure;


While this is peaceful protesting, all the time you all had a VERY successful coup that took 4 years to accomplish!

 

Sorry, "Bearack"...

"Whataboutism" won't fly in this thread.

Whataboutism = Epic FAIL.

Anyway, the attack on the Capitol was clearly Pre-Planned by certain people who bought into the "Stop the Steal" Fantasy.

And, where do you think that the "Stop the Steal" Fantasy started?

At least Pence was smart enough not to participate in the sedition and insurrection outside and instead was doing his job inside the Capitol.

 

Picture games.

Not worth the bandwidth to play.

 

Specifically, what is the proof?

 

It's in the same file cabinet as the EVIDENCE supporting Dirty Donnie's election fraud claims.

 

Figured.

 

1 days lasting 3 hours versus nearly 6 months of carnage and billions of dollars with thousands of peoples livelihoods gone. Of course you have no bandwidth because its hard to vilify one act when you justify a much more heinous act, perpetuated by your own supporters!

 

No, it's much more as if the Capitol Police had orders from "higher-ups" to stand down. And who was still the highest higher up of all at that time?

This whole thing was engineered, continued and yes, even participated in from the beginning by the Man of Bronze. This is the maddening thing about him, he comes right out and does these things where it's obvious to everyone and yet he gets away with it because we're just not willing to accept that our Highest Office is being occupied by a criminal gangster.

Trump HAS to be tried and he HAS to be incarcerated, only then will this nightmare be over.

 

Not interested in numbers games either. I'll look at batting averages if I want numbers.

Who are my supporters?

 

I haven't read anything specific, but the warnings came through intelligence reports. That could be internal or external, and the Democrats controlled neither. Ask Christopher Wray.

 

In the fevered brains of many Trumpublicans

 

You over use of whataboutism is quite tiresome and repugnant as you or your ilk still chose not to address the months of perpetual violence from the left of your own successful coup, the burning of cities, the reprehensible attacks on the opposition and your ongoing abridgment of our constitution. You'd rather latch onto a 3 hour single event (which I've stated time and time again that everyone that entered and did damage should be prosecuted) that did little to no damage and there WAS NO COUP.

Demanding to focus exclusively on one thing that suites your narrative while throwing ad hominem's like a monkey at a zoo throwing their own fecal matter is starting to look more like grade school antics, AJ.

 

Now it seems the DEMOCRATS attacked the Capitol.

Good work on our part getting all those Trump signs together on short notice.

 

HAHAHAHAHAH

Yeah, read the report

The TARGET was Congress, not the building

 

Irving and Stenger who Sund reports to both testified at the same hearing Sund was at, so where are you getting this idea that democrats blocked this from happening? For what it's worth, Irving and Stenger said Sund never asked for reinforcements until about 2 pm.

 

And how many congressional members were apprehended? Where they locked in and the building set fire?

Again, a meager 3 hour "siege" that got all panties in a wad. Granted, the one thing it did get you as those pesky Mericans giving up their individual liberties left and right so that our Oligarch overlords can properly take care of us.

 

Yeah really?

It was a regular "Jamboree".

 

It didn't succeed so no big deal. Just another run of the mill coup attempt by the "patriots"

WOW........

 

Capitol Police are managed and directed by a Capitol Police Board that has three civilian voting members all appointed by Congress. They are the sole law enforcement agency of the legislative branch.
