Chad Wolf, the acting chief of homeland security asked Trump to condemn the violence.  Trump withdraws his nomination which effectively fires him.

There is a detail in all this that's not being given the attention it deserves if true.  Trump resisted sending in the national guard for something like 2 hours.  He only gave in when his family started pressuring him.  Think about that.  Trump watches an angry mob invade congress and... he maybe wants to see how it plays out?

Trump actually gave a speech without claiming he won the rigged election. By a LOT.

He also admitted that he lost, without actually saying that.  Almost a kinda sorta concession speech.

It was almost like watching a normal human being reading a speech someone else wrote from a teleprompter without any incoherent ranting.

Someone really put the fear of God into him.

Lets see how long it lasts.

Edit:

Of course he couldn't help lying, claiming he called the national guard right away.  Pence did that after he refused.

Party of law and order huh? What a joke

Quote
At approximately 9:30 p.m. this evening (January 7, 2021), United States Capitol Police Officer Brian D. Sicknick passed away due to injuries sustained while on-duty. 

Officer Sicknick was responding to the riots on Wednesday, January 6, 2021, at the U.S. Capitol and was injured while physically engaging with protesters.  He returned to his division office and collapsed.  He was taken to a local hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.  The death of Officer Sicknick will be investigated by the Metropolitan Police Department’s Homicide Branch, the USCP, and our federal partners. 

Officer Sicknick joined the USCP in July 2008, and most recently served in the Department’s First Responder’s Unit. 

The entire USCP Department expresses its deepest sympathies to Officer Sicknick’s family and friends on their loss, and mourns the loss of a friend and colleague. 

We ask that Officer Sicknick’s family, and other USCP officers’ and their families’ privacy be respected during this time.

Looks like all the people involved in the riots are being fired by their employers. Those that tweeted, had pictures taken of or gave interviews of what they did to the media are being found out and busted.

https://www.news.com.au/finance/work/at-work/us-companies-swiftly-terminate-employees-found-in-footage-rioting-at-the-us-capitol-in-washington/news-story/4d3fb35702fd091883c45729d6438a26

Among them are West Virginian lawmaker and Republican Derrick Evans and former Republican state lawmaker Rick Saccone

Sucked in to all those pieces of human garbage! The police and FBI are also trolling through all the social media posts so hopefully many more arrests will be made.

Quote
Dominion Voting Systems, one of the biggest U.S. election equipment manufacturers and the subject of numerous incoherent conspiracy theories after the 2020 election, has sued lawyer Sidney Powell, who represented President Donald Trump’s attempts to overturn the election’s results, for defamation.

“Powell falsely claimed that Dominion had rigged the election, that Dominion was created in Venezuela to rig elections for Hugo Chávez, and that Dominion bribed Georgia officials for a no-bid contract,” the lawsuit states.

Powell didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

Dominion is requesting damages of more than $1.3 billion, saying it has spent millions on security for its employees and damage control to its reputation, and risks losses of future business.

A Dominion employee who had been subjected to targeted harassment from Trump supporters had previously personally sued Powell and others. . In December, Dominion sent cease-and-desist letters to some conservative media outlets that pushed those theories, including Fox News and OAN, which led to them walking back their claims.

Something tells me she wont have $1.3 billion dollars floating around to pay for that LOL

One current Metro D.C. police officer said in a public Facebook post that off-duty police officers and members of the military, who were among the rioters, flashed their badges and I.D. cards as they attempted to overrun the building. “If these people can storm the Capitol building with no regard to punishment, you have to wonder how much they abuse their powers when they put on their uniforms,” the officer wrote.

At least the Kraken is getting Krakened:

Sidney Powell Sued By Dominion For $1.3 Billion Over Vote Fraud Claims
Former Trump campaign lawyer Sidney Powell was sued for defamation by the voting machine company she repeatedly placed at the center of a vast and unfounded election conspiracy that she claimed switched votes to favor President-elect Joe Biden.

The Lede
Dominion Voting Systems' $1.3 billion lawsuit against Powell could be the first of several against individuals and media companies accused of spreading conspiracy theories about Dominion to explain Trump's election loss.

Key Details

-   Powell was let go from the Trump campaign after a November 19 press conference in which she said Dominion's voting systems were "certainly compromised by rogue actors, such as Iran and China."
-   Powell also asserted that Dominion was connected to former Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez, who died in 2013.
-   Powell has never provided any evidence to substantiate her claims.

Can't wait to see what's next for Giuliani & Wood.

Magaheads are reacting to Trump's concession very strangely.  Apparently because Trump said a "new administration" and not a "Biden administration" will start on Jan 20 they think that Trump is somehow this new administration. 

Interesting.  But then Trump also tweeted that he's not going to attend the inauguration.  Which if this theory is correct then it would be his own inauguration for his second term...

They are also talking on Parler about going back on January 19th for another demonstration it seems, which, this should be a slam dunk for the feds to get in front of. If they can follow all those secret back channels where terrorists plot against the US, one would hope they can also follow what's being discussed right out in the open.

After all the terrible shitty racist things Trump said about Obama, Obama still attended the inauguration. He still handed over the reins with dignity and grace. I don't know why Trump's tweet about not attending the inauguration has made me feel so fucking sad about all this, out everything that's happened, I don't know why this has upset me.

I have mixed feelings about this.  Trump being at the inauguration is an important endorsement of the legitimacy of Biden's administration.  On the other hand does anybody seriously think that Trump wouldn't just shit up the entire event?

It makes me sad not that Trump is a pile of shit, but because 70 million people think his behavior is what they WANT in a President.

So depressing.

Hmmm...  It appears that the plot surrounding Elizabeth from Knoxville thickens.
'Elizabeth from Knoxville' Rioter Armed with Onion May Be Evidence ... Capitol Invasion May Have Been Premeditated


"Elizabeth from Knoxville" -- the woman who said she got maced storming the Capitol -- is being accused of using an onion to make it look like she was crying, but there could be a deeper, more ominous reason for the bulb -- that she and others were banking on violence at the Capitol.

Onions are an antidote to tear gas. They can relieve the burning sensation from the gas. It's been reported for several years that onions can be used for this purpose. So the question ... why was this woman armed with an onion?
