Leading Report @LeadingReportBREAKING: Rep. Lauren Boebert has invited all of the pardoned January 6ers on a guided tour of the U.S. Capitol.
...Capitol police should be given the right to refuse entry to anyone they believe is a threat to the building, legislators, or staff.

The time has come for good trouble.
Set an example for the rest of the country who oppose dictatorship

(90,542 posts)...have you made an effort to suggest that to any of the leadership?
Understanding that you're not just expecting the victims of the attack to willingly face down another mob, by themselves, but just a handful of creeps trying to taunt legislators and Americans.
My view is that Capitol police shouldn't allow legislators to be exposed to those unrepentant criminals in their place of business.
But I shall.

I think it would be nonsense, for instance, to describe them as hiding behind 'decorum' when it comes to protecting and defending their own personal safety and preogative.
But I'm not one of the ones who was running for their lives from the thousands of rioters who set up a noose on the grounds to hang the Vice President, and who roamed the halls of Congress looking to exact retribution from our Representatives, so what I think they should do about the attackers returning to their place of business doesn't mean spit.
I wouldn't give them the time of day, personally, and I'd expect the police to do their jobs and keep these unrepentant, unpunished criminals away from the scene of their crimes.
Members should seek individual or collective restraining orders against them from entering the Capitol.

(17,441 posts)... she was so instrumental in formatting the first coup d'etat and insurrection at the US Capitol. Giving her "caseing out the joint" tours to familiarize the MAGA Goons with the layout, even though the Capitol building was closed off to public tours because of the Covid pandemic crisis.
Now that the J-6 criminals have been pardoned and released from prison by the Tangerine Fuhrer - Boebert wants to do a celebratory tour of the same building they ransacked, shit over, and smeared feces all over the walls. A celebratory coup d'etat 2.0 and spit in America's face again - if we will so allow.
Fuck Boebert,... fuck these MAGA meatheaded morons.

(72,934 posts)In her fucked up brain she sees them as heros
and freedom fighters. Years of right wing misinformation and being a high school drop out who is as dumb as a bag of hammers has poisoned her brain to the point that she is functionally useless. She is an example of a
person who listened to Rush and thought she was hearing the truth.

(6,965 posts)It is just that they don't want to accept that it will be a battle and we will have to get our hands dirty.
'Talk' is not going to get rid of this. 'Action' is.
Let's hope the upper echelons of the Democratic Party will start to understand either the fact that this is happening and act.
As the saying goes, either lead or get out of the way.

(2,285 posts)around them. The law will support the insurrectionists and not the police in any conflict that they remotely can be portrayed as inviting.
This would be hard for the Capitol police to stomach.
