Trump’s D.C. Police Takeover Is His Latest Made-Up ‘Emergency’ Power Grab
Convicted Felon Trump Lies About Crime Rate In D.C., Deploys Troops
However, the President of the United States (2025) does not believe there was an insurrection on January 6, 2021.
January 6 U.S. Capitol attack, "storming of the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021, by a mob of supporters of Republican Pres. Donald J. Trump. The attack disrupted a joint session of Congress convened to certify the results of the presidential election of 2020, which Trump had lost to his Democratic opponent, Joe Biden. Because its object was to prevent a legitimate president-elect from assuming office, the attack was widely regarded as an insurrection or attempted coup d’état. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and other law-enforcement agencies also considered it an act of domestic terrorism."
He pardoned nearly everyone involved in the insurrection on the Capital in Washington D.C. Now he wants to put troops on the ground in D.C.???
Yes, the criminal is in the White House.
A continuation of the insurrection? "This is liberation day in D.C., and we're going to take our capital back — we're taking it back," [the President] said during a news conference at the White House.
Sick. Someone needs to stand up to him. George W. Bush? Mike Pence? Mitt Romney? John Kasich? Arnold Schwarzenegger? Brian Kemp? Bueller?
