So...let's have a lil chat about what's been going on and what's to come: a thread.
We now know, beyond a doubt as it's videoed:
1) Capitol cops were in on it
2) trump and his brood were right about orgasmic watching it
3) It was cosigned by many officials

1/

including the DOD appointees trump ushered in at the last second - this was why
4) the people who are resigning now stayed on to see if the coup would work.
Now, none of us who could tell this was coming are surprised one little bit.

2/
But what I think needs to be said is that *this was a test run*.
They are brazen enough to talk about it on Parler. This is how we all know that they're going to try it again on Jan 19th.
The @FBI I'm sure is aware by now that they had explosives ready to go too.

3/
If this doesn't terrify you, it should. This is exactly what Hitler had done with the Reichstag Fire. History repeats itself. These treasonous imbeciles are neo-Nazis; all of us who had seen this coming know the exact playbook. I'm sure that law enforcement knows it too.

4/
I could go on forever about everyone being warned about this. @HillaryClinton was all but psychic. I've already written about the media's complicit participation at my blog. Link: https://t.co/tgTpX4b2Hi

5/
But the real question should be this:

Why aren't we making more noise about those who were complicit in this? Specifically the Pentagon officials who paused on the National Guard response. Because they're just as guilty.

6/
Aside from that, while I'm nowhere near as sharp-eyed as Hillary, nor as astute in the political machinations of the world, I think I have a few predictions myself as to how this shit will unfold.

First prediction: This is only the start of the shitshow.

7/
Dr. Maya Angelou of blessed memory said that when people show you who they are, believe them the first time.

They're already talking on Parler about Jan 19th and about how disappointed they are that their dear leader threw them under the bus.

8/
This will serve as fuel.
They frothed at the mouth for a civil war ever since Pres. Obama's first inauguration. They stormed the Capitol and found themselves welcome there.

They learned that they can do all sorts of shit without consequences.

This is very, very bad.

9/
When a narcissist gets away without consequences for too long, they can and will destroy everything in their path if it makes them feel good.

These people are of the same breed.

Worse, they actively believe their own delusion. It's almost impossible to deprogram that.

10/
Second prediction: trump won't get 25th'd.
Pence has enabled his boss every second of the last 4 years. He isn't going to stop now.
Anyone who thinks to contrary needs to look at what he's done the last 4 years: kiss trump's tail end.

11/
Third prediction: impeachment/removal is very likely if enough Republicans realize that continuing to kiss trump's tail end like they've done the last 4 years is going to torpedo their careers.

I think enough of them realized that.

I would like to hope, anyway.

12/
Fourth prediction: granted, this is purely speculative, but.... I legitimately think that this will be enough for trump and his entire cabal to be arrested. Sedition is a crime. He's been videotaped.
And every. fucking. person. saw. him. encouraging them.

13/
Video evidence does real well in courtrooms, if my crim-justice degree is still sound.

So now, here's my personal views, and if anyone from law enforcement is reading this, please understand that this is just my thoughts. If you wanna hire me though, please do.

14/
The real victory over these people will be impossible without harsh, immediate, and very forceful pushback by the law.

@FBI warned us in 2006 about white supremacists infiltrating law enforcement. Wednesday was the result.

Three words: New Wickersham Commission.

15/
The first step is cleaning house within law enforcement. Purge every. single. white. supremacist. They're on social media. Compile a database, flush them out, and blackball them from ever working in the law again. All the Darren Wilsons of every precinct.

16/
The second step is to retaliate against everyone who thought that storming the Capitol was a good idea.

Arrest. Every. Single. One.
Maximum mandatory sentences.
Shame their families.
Blackball them from future employment.

It worked with Charlottesville Nazis.

17/
Show them, BY LEGAL AVENUES ONLY, that their actions have consequences. If this means they never hold a job again, are spit on in the streets, are dumped by their spouses - fair game.

Remember that these are spoiled brats who never learned consequences are a thing.

18/
But most crucially, MAINTAIN THESE CONSEQUENCES FOR LIFE.

Because people have short memories, and they forget the very simple fact that no leopard in history has ever changed its spots. If we shame them once, shame them continuously, because they will simply learn...

19/
... that if they wait long enough, they'll be forgiven, and then they can resume the same shit that they did last time.

Unless we as a people, as a nation, retaliate THOROUGHLY, then I can guarantee you: this will only continue and get worse.

And that we don't need.

THREAD: Okay. I'm about to get SUPER space beans tin foil hat on you, so stop reading if you're not into that. Based on what we're learning from public reporting, the pentagon curtailed the response to the trump coup. 1/

We also know from video and public reporting that there were two groups that stormed the capitol. 1) weird-ass bystanders and 2) possibly armed ex-military members with tactical gear and flex cuffs 2/


We also know there was a failed coup attempt in Venezuela orchestrated by Giuliani and former members of Blackwater, an Erik Prince joint. 3/

We also know that Giuliani met with Brian Benczkowski and Bill Barr to lobby for for help to go easy on his Venezuelan pal. Benczkowski is a former Alfa Bank rep. 4/

Further, we know that Erik Prince is the brother of Betsy DeVos (who JUST resigned) and the former head of Blackwater. We also know that the day before the insurrection, a memo was sent out to knee-cap the federal police in DC. 5/
A detention hearing is about to start in federal court in Arkansas in the case of Richard Barnett, the man photographed sitting in Nancy Pelosi's office (see: https://t.co/GAAENhkxf0). He's been in custody since his arrest

Prosecutors alleged Barnett was carrying a stun gun. He's charged with entering a restricted area w/ a weapon, violent entry/disorderly conduct, and theft. There isn't anything on the docket indicating what the govt/Barnett will be seeking as far as detention v. release


We're still waiting for the Richard Barnett detention hearing to start in Arkansas. Meanwhile, follow @o_ema for updates on initial appearances in DC federal court today for a few of the Capitol insurrection arrestees -->


Richard Barnett's detention hearing is underway in Arkansas — Judge Erin Wiedemann will decide if Barnett should stay behind bars. The first witness is FBI special agent Jonathan Willett, who was involved in the Capitol riot investigation

FBI agent walks the judge through surveillance videos that the agent says show Barnett walking in and out of Nancy Pelosi's office, with a "walking stick Taser" on his hip, as well as the widely disseminated photos of Barnett sitting in Pelosi's chair with his feet up
