The D. C. Occupation will continue until democracy is saved (from Americans)
Daniel Greenfield January 24,2021.
On a cold, windy day with a small group of spectators watching from behind barbed wire, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. Swore another in a long series of false oaths before his motorcade passed between a long row of soldiers with their backs to him looking outward for threats.
No inauguration has been this empty in a century of American history. And at no inauguration have the spectators been outnumbered by a raw display of armed force. American presidents have been inaugurated in wartime and during actual national emergencies with a better turnout.
Through world wars and wars on terror, Washington the. See. Has remained a national capital where the hundreds of millions of taxpayers who labor to pay for its grand edifices, free museums, and lavish lifestyles could briefly come to enjoy a little of the life lived by the ruling class in the Imperial City. Now the ruling class has made it clear that it doesn't want peasants entering the. See.
Even as Biden's team prepped the executive orders that would end the national emergency at the border and shut down construction of the wall, new walls topped by razor wire were rising across the imperial city. The new Fortress of Government sealed off two miles of the National Mall and parts of downtown the. See. And filled it with more soldiers than are deployed in Iraq.
The Secret Service designated green and red zones. Some 25,000 National Guard members were dispatched from Vermont, Maine, Louisiana, Wisconsin, Ohio, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Arkansas, Missouri, South Carolina, Rhode Island, Virginia, and Colorado to prepare for a fake invasion that never came. But the armored vehicles and heavy weaponry did come. President Trump had wanted a military parade that would show America's strength to the world. Biden held his own military parade to intimidate his fellow Americans.
Democrats had deployed more soldiers in the. See. Than they had in Iraq and Afghanistan while authorizing them to use lethal force and investigating their politics before the deployment. The radical leftists who had resisted using the military to fight terrorism or secure the border from invasion were eager to deploy the military against the people of the United States of America. . .

[QUOTE=Beno69;2525044]Why not compare with Obama inauguration? Insted the half empty Trump. Or was it the Kukuksclan white dress? - that make it look so empty during Trumps inauguration?[/QUOTE]
We expect more from elected officials. We expect more from a presidennt
[QUOTE=ShooBree;2524797]Donald Trump is undoubtedly the best American president since the 80's.
The Democrats created this situation by their unprecedented witch-hunt against Trump and their support of extremists initiating insurrections and riots all over America. The Democrats needs to apologize for how they attacked US democracy by calling Donald Trump "illegitimate" and encouraged terrorists to attack one American city after the other. Cops were killed because of the liberal media and liberal politicians.
The leftist made USA look like a third world country.[/QUOTE]Shoo, call me a Reagan Republican. Don't scapegoat "Democrats". All Americans in power, Democrat and Republican alike, must deal with nihilism, hooliganism and class warfare. Mrs. Clinton polemicized (deplorables) but she conceded on election night. Mr Trump certainly made insult a standard tool of his communication but he did not concede even weeks after the fact. Compare that with Al Gore in 2000, who lost Florida and the presidency by 500 votes. We expect more of any politician of any color. Trump alone is responsible for his words on Jan 6th and prior, no matter how much he was harrassed.
In hindsight, most Americans view their presidents positively. They are woven in their lives. It makes perfect sense. I diagree with what you claim to be an "undoubtable" truth. Trump's legacy will be the infamy of Jan 6th, 2021, sadly. Americans are unforgiving in this respect. Nixon had his merits, but his reputation never recovered. Lincoln is a saint for somehow weaving the country back together. Wilson won a war, as did Truman. Reagan and George W. Bush were very good persons and loving spouses. Reagan finished communism off. George Bush oversaw unification of Germany. Clinton was handsome and balanced the budget with Newt. George W. Invested in Africa and in American children, also managed 911 admirably. Obama will forever be etched in the history books as the first man of color in that post, no matter what else you and I agree or disagree on. As for Trump, the scenes of Jan 6th 2021 will dominate. I hope his clarity on Israel and his dedication to the rue of law at the Southern border will prevail. But they are peanuts compared to his morbid stubbornness, his inability to recognize who he is, his bullying and his perpetual fact twisting which led this nadir of American political culture.

Labor Unions That Endorsed Biden Now Lashing Out At Him Thousands of jobs lost. . .
Kiss those $75 k per year starting pay on the Keystone Oil pipeline goodbye!
"Joe Biden has already made labor unions regret their support for him. During his first day in office, Biden revoked the construction permit for the Keystone XL oil pipeline, destroying thousands of jobs.
TC Energy Corp. , the Canadian company sharing ownership of the pipeline with the Alberta government, had estimated that 10,000 jobs would be created in 2021 thanks to the construction of the pipeline.
A total of 42,000 jobs were to be filled once the pipeline was completed.
The Laborer's International Union Of North America issued this statement:"The Biden decision to cancel the Keystone XL pipeline permit on day one of his presidency is both insulting and disappointing to the thousands of hard-working LIUNA members who will lose good-paying, middle-class family-supporting jobs.
"By pandering to environmental extremists, a thousand union jobs will immediately vanish and 10,000 additional jobs will be foregone."
This comes after LIUNA bragged about pushing Biden "over the top" in 2020:
The North American Building Trades Union said: "North America's Building Trades Unions are deeply disappointed in the decision to cancel the Keystone XL permit on the President's first day in office. Environmental ideologues have prevailed, and over a thousand union men and women have been terminated from employment on the project.
The United Association Of Union Plumbers and Pipefitters released this statement:"In revoking this permit, the Biden Administration has chosen to listen to the voices of fringe activists instead of union members and the American consumer on Day 1. ". . . Full article:

Special Counsel Report Volume 1
Anyone read this before, or did you rely on Attorney General Fred Flintstone's false summary before the redacted version was published?
"The Russian Government believed it benefited from Trump winning the election, so it hacked the Democrat's computers and ran a massive disinformation campaign online. Vol 1 pg 5.
"Donald Trump and his campaign invited interference in the election and his campaign repeatedly communicated with. Russia and Wikileaks, which hacked Hillary Clinton's campaign and the DNC and spread the stolen data. Vol 1 pg 5,49.
"Trump's campaign chairman Paul Manafort met repeatedly with an individual linked with Russian intelligence and provided internal strategy plans to target voters in key midwestern states. Vol 1 pg 136,138,140.
"Trump and his campaign had advanced knowledge of the release of stolen information, and his campaign planned press strategy around it" vol 1 pg 54.
"Trump and his campaign repeatedly signaled that his administration's policy would be favorable to Russia".
Robert Muller's Team incited 37 individuals on 199 charges. Secured 7 convictions.
Attorney General Sessions was forced to recuse himself for lying about contact with Russian Ambassador Kislyak, setting in motion the appointment of the Special Prosecutor.
Keep this in mind: a mafia boss with temporary presidential immunity from the justice department and dangling the pardon power for federal crimes in front of his co conspirators will not be convicted by a Senate controlled by his party.
A poster case in whataboutism
[QUOTE=ShooBree;2525149]I disagree completely. Trump did nothing wrong and he can't be blamed for the actions of other free women and men.
Things do not happen in a vacuum. The Democrats didn't accept the result of the election in 2016. They repeatedly attacked the legitimacy of the president and the election. They basically claimed that the election was stolen by Russia and Trump wasn't the legitimate president.
Trump did what the Democrats had done against him. I support him to 100 percent.
Also, you don't think that all the violence and disorder supported by the liberals and carried out by BLM / antifa had any effect on the far right?
The liberals turned the heat on, first by attacking the election in 2016 and then by attacking American cities in 2019.
I've said it before and I will say it again, the liberals are turning USA into a third world country.[/QUOTE]Please reconsider. The former president did a lot of wrong that day and before. He encouraged police violence. Roughing up detainees. "Proud boys stand back and stand by". Do you really think those messenges are not received? Bill Clinton was harrassed. Special prosecutor. Became a sex drive case. Obama was harrassed. They kept their discipline. But that can never justify what Trump said and what resulted directly from his actions. It is quite unique in the 2. 5 centuries the US exists. No congressperson is in Antifa. No congressperson is for BLM violence. Of course those groups had an effect. Stop grouping like "the liberals". A lot of bad comes from the violent left. But that does not justify by any means what the former president did. And he will pay dearly for it. And you should move on an identify a Republican whose views you share and who does not carry that awful awful baggage.
