    "As a veteran and speaking for other veterans under no circumstance should this piece of shit woman be allowed any military honors at her funeral or be buried in a veterans section or cemetery.

    Those honors are reserved for the men and women that faithfully upheld the constitution of the United States, not attempted to overthrow it in an act of treason.

    I’d also like to add that in the veteran community it is widely wished that any veteran found to have breached the Capitol be brought back to active duty and tried in a military court. Absolute disgrace to our country."

        I don't think what she did constitutes treason, but I hope that other veterans absolutely reject this and reject it so much that they root it from the branches altogether. Our military and police are littered with white supremacists and extremists.

          she was probably misled. 16 years in the AF, probably came close to dying many times, only to die doing something stupid for DJT. only conservatives believe someone deserves their fate.

          I forgot what I was going to say. lol. I have to say, Twitter kind of reached in finally banning Trump. I see the argument. and their perception on this correct.

          moreover, what was the logistics of what happened at the capitol. did the people from Trumps rally goto the capitol? or was there already a lot of people there waiting. did they march down the street or something?

          the ironies in everything that happened are obvious yet still complicated. here you have big tech under assault for not doing more and being threatened to censor more by Trump who gets censored. i'd say Dorsey has a set of balls for banning the president. but Zucker did it first.

            I said way long ago everyone would eventually turn on Trump. the post is still there, i'm not going to look for it. I won't give myself credit for prediction. if I did it, I was under the influence of drugs. not a hard prediction to make. wasn't if but how.

            this is why we can't have nice things. DJT screwed up his entire future. he had it all. he would've been the main attraction of every future show he ever went on. it's actually kind of scary how unpredictable the future is becoming. when you see the president being banned from social media.

            I really doubt the republican party will change. but the world has always been crazy and we are still around. we got that going for us.

              The FBI has reasons to believe the mob of Trump supporters who stormed the Capitol not only premeditated the assault, but might have been aided by police and staffers in the building.

                I would say this is capitalism and libertarianism coming together in an so-called ideal world. where a CEO of a media company had more power than the POTUS. ..you wouldn't see this sort of thing in China or a communist country, or Monarchy; where it appears to be the right decision.

                people walk around and say there is no social contract anymore. yet, we keep seeing businesses making decisions based on morays that are beneficial.. or society and also based on it being good for business. perhaps this is capitalisms best or only or last defense.

                the economy protecting free speech. if you want to get technical. wait.. that doesn't sound right. I just confused myself. I fucking hate contradicting myself. heh

                  The secret service agent who shot her dead seemed to think that she was a threat to someone nearby when she attempted to climb through a broken window while draped in a Trump flag. Hard to tell if she had a weapon concealed while dressed that way. Rumor has it that secret service agent was there to protect Mike Pence. It probably didn't ease the tension when some of the rioters were overheard yelling "kill them".

                    They were all obviously enormous threats. The scenes that have been unfolding through cell phone videos have been absolutely shocking --- a cop getting crushed nearly to death by a throng of violent Trump supporters, one of the seditionists trampled to death (while ironically flying a "Don't Tread on Me" flag), a guy with zip tie handcuffs on the Senate floor, people calling for the assassination of VP Pence, chants calling for murder, and on and on. If it were any other group, it would have been a massacre.

                      Finding out Off duty Cops from out of town and Military Vets were part of the group which stormed the Building. Even sitting congress people in at least one case. Just goes to show, Trump has support in our most trusted bastions, I'd wager--we'll find out this was more far reaching and conspiratorial than we knew/thought at the time it was happening.

                        Very good article in the Washington Post about Ashli Babbitt...a troubled woman who fought all of her life. The obvious caution about graphic video showing Babbitt being shot.

                          Thanks for the article. What a sick woman. QAnon is such an awful grift. I don't think its going away even if Trump's voice is shut down. The barn doors are open now.

                                he's not a Congressman, though.

                                I see he has now resigned, thankfully. any elected official at any level who stormed into the building should.
