No idea if it’s true, but the tweet is still up:

Paul Gosar’s siblings absolutely hate him. They endorsed his opponent in 2018 and one of the brothers was giving interviews on the news yesterday about him.

If we can’t give ‘reconnaissance’ tours to people wanting to overthrow our government right before they attempt to overthrow our government, then the terrorists will have won.

Now I kind of understand why there aren’t more terrorist attacks. Based on these Trumpkins it appears you have to be kind of stupid to be extremized (not sure if that’s a word).

Radicalized.

That’s the word I was looking for. Turned 40 this year, things just don’t jump up there as fast as they used to LOL!

I think it’s easy to dismiss the tours as tours, thinking that it is reasonable for them to occur. But tours, even given by members of Congress, were banned in March 2020 b/c of the pandemic. On Jan 3rd, new and returning members were reminded that tours were banned. On Jan 5th, the tours happened. And lest you think that this is a rule that is often broken, the tours were sufficiently unusual that some people reported them as suspicious prior to the attack.

:tfh: :rofl:

Yeah, my MIL posted a far far longer version of the mass arrest, but it’s not just inauguration attendees. “worldwide housecleaning” and “crimes that have been going ok for centuries will be finally brought to light” and “Rest assured SpaceForce has technology that most don’t believe exist. Much of which is Extraterrestrial”

“there is a possibility that China and/or others … may attempt an attack on AMERICA”
Hmm. Apparently it is a worldwide housecleaning except for China. Apparently Trump botched this one, too.

Everyone still got their Y2K coins?

Based on where I can go and get a pulse on Trumpkins this article is exactly what I am worried about. The rhetoric is getting worse not better. The most rational people are leaving and the least rational are left which is a bad cycle for radicalization.

Oh yeah. No one is “standing down” anymore.

okay, they are gonna have up to 25,000 troops in the capitol come wednesday. that should be enough, right? :tfh:

Propublica has published 500 videos lifted from Parler of the events at the Capitol. They tried to pick videos that were both relevant and news worthy. It’s ordered by time taken. I’ve only looked at it a bit and it’s really striking:

Enough to stop the unoffical coup, or to accomplish the official one?

:tfh:

When does the space force swoop in to effect the mass arrests of Biden and everyone else on the stage and to install Trump as supreme leader?

Yep, I watched a lot of that. It is incredibly depressing.

Thousands of people who just absolutely, positively know know something that isn’t true.
