<p>President Trump spoke at length detailing how the election was stolen
in key swing states—and it was stolen. Then he encouraged the crowd to
walk to the Capitol in a peaceful demonstration of their displeasure
with what was arguably the most corrupt election in American history.</p>
<p>It goes without saying that the President did not call for violence. You can <a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wsls.com%2Fnews%2F2021%2F01%2F06%2Fwatch-president-trump-expected-to-speak-at-save-america-rally%2F&data=04%7C01%7Cpsmeaton%40lifesitenews.com%7Ca3d07717e41d461590ac08d8b33a47eb%7Cb1de1e02454440878df20244507fd8e6%7C1%7C0%7C637456410195149079%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=vWNox71WX8iPI64biHcN61jib3NPYIqGv7Fas7GJjic%3D&reserved=0">watch the speech</a> for
yourself. The president has never, in all of the hundreds of rallies
that he has held, incited his rallygoers in that way. The atmosphere at
the rallies is more along the lines of a kind of family reunion for
forgotten Americans. Those of us who support him are happy warriors
for truth, bearing zero resemblance to those on the Left. </p>
<p>That fact did not, of course, stop the media talking heads and the
politicians from falsely blaming Trump and his supporters for what
happened then.</p>
<p>Mingled in the crowd were members of the terrorist group, Antifa, who
were there precisely to commit violent acts as part of a “false flag”
operation. We have copies of the notices that Antifa organizers had
sent out to their followers to <a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FColonelRETJOHN%2Fstatus%2F1347004631440769025&data=04%7C01%7Cpsmeaton%40lifesitenews.com%7Ca3d07717e41d461590ac08d8b33a47eb%7Cb1de1e02454440878df20244507fd8e6%7C1%7C0%7C637456410195159041%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=k5m6fIelZldfCRvr4c6zkUBpaN9z87ZQFMz73o2XIKw%3D&reserved=0">infiltrate the crowd</a> wearing MAGA gear and evidence that they were <a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FPerpetualmaniac%2Fstatus%2F1346960928672247809&data=04%7C01%7Cpsmeaton%40lifesitenews.com%7Ca3d07717e41d461590ac08d8b33a47eb%7Cb1de1e02454440878df20244507fd8e6%7C1%7C0%7C637456410195159041%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=BFoMwtoCNtNfS3Jqumpj%2FiOSBeJwoiiNcQZFQ5KlhYE%3D&reserved=0">waiting</a> for an opportunity to strike. One retired FBI agent reported seeing a bus disgorge an entire busload of Antifa. </p>
<p>These instigators were in the lead when the crowd reached the flimsy
metal barricades surrounding the Capitol building that had been set up
by the Capitol Police. The rallygoers respected the barricades, but the
Antifa plants <a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FUndergroundSilk%2Fstatus%2F1347017411401306114&data=04%7C01%7Cpsmeaton%40lifesitenews.com%7Ca3d07717e41d461590ac08d8b33a47eb%7Cb1de1e02454440878df20244507fd8e6%7C1%7C0%7C637456410195168991%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=%2B3PHFIXztENyjAbYb%2F6xuq9R9v8WWUgj9FGNDSH2zAw%3D&reserved=0">began pushing</a> these aside and encouraging others to do so.

let the crowd in. Some of the scenes look like opening day at Disney
World, with the crowd walking— not running— calmly towards the building
as the police seemed to lead the way.</p></div></div></div></div><p>At this point, President Trump sent out a video message to his
supporters asking them to end the rally and leave. He reminded them
that “we are the Party of law and order” and that they should “respect
the law and our great men and women in blue.” </p>
<p>This was not a message that Twitter wanted the world or Trump’s supporters to hear. They quickly <a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Frealdonaldtrump&data=04%7C01%7Cpsmeaton%40lifesitenews.com%7Ca3d07717e41d461590ac08d8b33a47eb%7Cb1de1e02454440878df20244507fd8e6%7C1%7C0%7C637456410195168991%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=F4JwOtNxdWkBEOAobQ83OdZbDs1ptdG8qUXa20hB4nw%3D&reserved=0">took this video and another tweet down</a>.
(All who are concerned about social media censorship should note that
Twitter has now censored the sitting President of the United States for
the first, but undoubtedly not the last, time.) </p>
<p>Over the years, I’ve been in the Capitol building a hundred
times. It’s one of the most secure buildings in the world. It’s
definitely not a building that you can “storm” or “breach”—as Trump
supporters are accused of doing. All the Capitol Police would have had
to do keep the unarmed protesters out and secure the building is to lock
the heavy steel doors. Instead, they <a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.msn.com%2Fen-us%2Fnews%2Fus%2Fformer-capitol-police-chief-shares-thoughts-on-why-officers-appeared-to-let-rioters-in%2Far-BB1cyDXg&data=04%7C01%7Cpsmeaton%40lifesitenews.com%7Ca3d07717e41d461590ac08d8b33a47eb%7Cb1de1e02454440878df20244507fd8e6%7C1%7C0%7C637456410195178960%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=ObLA%2BbigbMUhf76hp8lOutwO3g%2FBPjlU07BWyj2UI90%3D&reserved=0">let them in</a>.</p>

obviously staged and filmed for publicity purposes, shows the Capitol
Police opening an exit door, encouraging the crowd to come in, and then
running away. The Capitol Police, I should note, <a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.uscp.gov%2Fthe-department%2Foversight&data=04%7C01%7Cpsmeaton%40lifesitenews.com%7Ca3d07717e41d461590ac08d8b33a47eb%7Cb1de1e02454440878df20244507fd8e6%7C1%7C0%7C637456410195178960%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=3S4R3HNVIYvcYsKa3jL3LarCpSNHOq%2BRT8zCd3Q%2BMUc%3D&reserved=0">work for</a> Nancy Pelosi and Mitch McConnell.</p>
<p>Finally, although this is being widely reported as a “violent”
assault on the Capitol building, there have been to date no injuries
reported among the Capitol Police force, members of which were seen
taking selfies with some of Trump’s supporters inside the Capitol. </p>
<p>On the other hand, one unarmed demonstrator, a 14-year Navy veteran by the name of Ashli Babbit, was <a href="https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fthedonald.win%2Fp%2F11RhAqDDbl%2Fher-name-was-ashli-babbit-a-14ye%2F&data=04%7C01%7Cpsmeaton%40lifesitenews.com%7Ca3d07717e41d461590ac08d8b33a47eb%7Cb1de1e02454440878df20244507fd8e6%7C1%7C0%7C637456410195198863%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=EBjuNx8%2FTeOU5zljW0%2Bgih1g9moMuaGr9N0WOflyMKg%3D&reserved=0">shot and killed</a> by plainclothes police. They inexplicably fired through a window on a closed door. May she rest in peace.</p>
<p>Do not expect any George Floyd-style eulogies for this poor women,
however. The media can barely bring itself to mention her name. They
are too busy attacking Trump supporters for causing “chaos” by walking
around inside the Capitol and engaging in seditious acts like praying in
the House chambers for their country.</p>
<p>The media prefer to celebrate things like Leftist agitators rioting
in front of the White House and pulling down statues, like they did last
summer. These are the kinds of acts that make Obama “proud”, as he
said at the time, and get you included in Nike commercials. </p>
<p>The House Parliamentarian, of course, is appointed by the Speaker of
the House, who is none other than Nancy Pelosi. What this means is
that, for whatever reason, Pence let a member of Pelosi’s <em>staff</em> adjudicate the slates of electors. The outcome was a foregone conclusion.</p>
<p>It is hard to put into words the depth of the betrayal that I
feel. Pence has always portrayed himself as utterly committed to the
pro-life, pro-family, pro-American cause. </p>
<p>And yet it is impossible to avoid the conclusion that, for whatever
reason, he conspired with Nancy Pelosi and, of course, Mitch McConnell,
to betray the very voters who put him in office in the first place. Not
to mention the 75 million voters who voted in November, the pro-life
cause, religious freedom, the Second Amendment—indeed, every principle
he has long claimed to support.</p>
<p>Does he intend to run for president in 2024? Good luck with that.</p>
<p>As far as I’m concerned, he belongs right up there with Benedict Arnold and Aaron Burr. </p>
