And Sleepy Joe Will Get The Credit: US Politics January 2021

could be interesting if he manages to get the residents of Alamo to storm The Alamo though

I thought the wall was in alamo, tx

Remember the Elmo!

Remember Alamo, The Town

do you think trump will hug the wall, he will at least rub and pat it affectionately

we should be renamed the Grocery Groin of Garu

Either Alamo sends the same message to his followers.

dowd otm

he's gonna hump the wall

In front of a Whataburger: “Wow here I am at the Alamo where general patton said don’t give up the ship, just beautiful”

why not just go to Alamo Drafthouse then

Yeah, I thought the trip was to visit the wall (and not in the good way - "Up against the wall! Up against the wall, motherfucker!")

i don't know if i'm giving his staff too much credit, but i think they know The Alamo is not at the US border. this is because it sounds cool to trump and racist to stephen miller.

ya

hes making his last stand!

He also needs to pick up the check from Mexico

I’m sure they think that the Texans won at the Alamo

of course they did, that's where the founding fathers drew up the declaration of independence, after defeating mexico

Doubtless this

NEW: FBI and DOJ to hold 3 p.m. ET news conference on Wednesday's storming of the US Capitol, DOJ announces.

— MSNBC (@MSNBC) January 12, 2021

...has been prompted by the report about the FBI report saying "Uh, you know..."

what's this gonna be covering

this thread is too hot to handle, run of Alamo joeks coming back up like bad shellfish

Really his only true skill is in constantly tiptoeing around the line of what words and actions are indisputably illegal and indefensible. Obv millions of ppl think he has trotted over that line MANY times, that he LIVES in the other side of that line, but there's always a tiniest sliver of plausible deniabilty to those who are hellbent on finding one. He didn't LITERALLY say "go break into the Capitol and hunt down my enemies". The whole "many people are saying" escape clause. Etc etc.

FBI/DOJ presser will be concurrent with Trump à l’Alamo.

Sorry for your loss, Lord Soto.

Meant that for Donald Trump thread but not like there's much distinction with this one

Trump is scheduled to speak at 3:00 as well

Really his only true skill is in constantly tiptoeing around the line of what words and actions are indisputably illegal and indefensible.

Can’t a jury suss out intent though? I’m not sure the mob boss style of communicating through hints actually works.

I don't like this "let's impeach in 100 days" thing. Just get it over with.

But if they don't wait, they can't make sure that even the most ardent GOP impeachment supporter has enough time to lose their spine again and ensure that nothing happens.

is FBI/DOJ doing this to deliberately pull viewers away from Trump?

what are they planning to share, do we think? reassurances that the Keystone Kops aren't gonna be protecting the ceremony?

seen elsewhere, is this true?

For the inauguration, there will be at least four times as many National Guardsmen in the US capital as troops in all of Afghanistan.

they did say up to 15,000 will be deployed. not sure how many in Afghanistan.

The man in the video can be heard crying out: "This is what they do to us, they kicked me off a flight, they call me a f***ing terrorist and they want to rule my life."

Another person in the video was seen approaching the man and can be heard saying: "Sir, please calm down. I was kicked off Delta earlier," before the video ends.

Heheheheh

no. trump has never given a press conference on time in his life, and i doubt he's going to start now the white house is a skeleton crew of interns.

the last few days were awful, but it was briefly nice to spend less time parsing trump's words and plans.

is this the first briefing from the government on the riots?
that's kind of nuts it took this long

I would think, as well, that Trump's speech would at least be aired on a time delay. No responsible outlet is gonna be cool with just putting him live on air at this point.

feels like theater to some extent but i'll take it:

The US Army is working with the Secret Service to determine if there are soldiers who will be part of the National Guard contingent providing security at the inauguration who require additional background screening.

"The D.C. National Guard is also providing additional training to service members as they arrive in D.C. that if they see or hear something that is not appropriate, they should report it to their chain of command," an Army spokesperson said in a written statement to CNN.

“There is no place for extremism in the military and we will investigate each report individually and take appropriate action,” the statement said.

“The Army is committed to working closely with the F.B.I. as they identify people who participated in the violent attack on the Capitol to determine if the individuals have any connection to the Army,” the statement said while adding that any type of activity that “involves violence, civil disobedience, or a breach of peace,” may be punishable under the Uniform Code of Military Justice or under state and federal law.

Current Defense Department policy requires all service members be trained annually under a program that requires department personnel to report “any information regarding known or suspected extremist behavior that could be a threat to the department or the United States,” the statement said.

I would think, as well, that Trump's speech would at least be aired on a time delay. No responsible outlet is gonna be cool with just putting him live on air at this point.

These days it's "look look what this man is saying it's not us it's him"

"There is no place for extremism in the military..."

Yeah, I'm sure the ARMY OF ONE recruitment campaign really helped weed out these radicalized lone wolves.

IMO prosecute Three Doors Down
