Nancy Pelosi was in charge of DC security that day. What she accomplished by shirking her responsibility for the security of the District was fully in keeping with every other means by which she obstructed the Trump presidency beginning on January 20 2017.

That the demonstration on 1/6/21 has been labeled an "insurrection" does less to alter the course of history than it does a dishonor to the lives of those who died defending the United States against a legitimate insurrection that began on April 12, 1861.

James Buchanan, a Democrat President in 1860, lost the election that year to the candidate of the fledgling Republican Party, first established in 1854. Their first-ever candidate, fielded in 1856, lost to Buchanan who had been selected to run instead of the Democrat incumbent Franklin Pierce.

The Republican's choice for 1860 – one Abraham Lincoln – did better than the one they ran in 1856. Buchanan had predicted that there would be a Civil War if the Republican won.

Merely campaign rhetoric?

Much has changed since then yet to my mind, with the current Democrat administration in DC doing everything it can to disrupt the legitimacy of our electoral process nationwide, it could be said that history is about to repeat itself.

Fedsurrection, like the Michigan Fednapping plot which preceded it. Typical FBI entrapments, and the MAGA muppets fell right into them.
