And accomplished what? Absolutely fucking nothing. At the end of the day they get to do this shit and go home because they aren't a real threat.
Again, it should be abundantly fucking clear after today that these morons aren't the real threat. They're the cowardly cheerleaders of the real fascist stormtroopers, the police, and hide behind them accordingly every time they actually get threatened with consequences for their psychotic actions. When they can't hide behind them they retreat with their fucking tails between their legs.
They didn't even take over the capitol for a day...they were back in session by dinner time. The cops literally just opened the doors and welcomed them in. Their power lies with the police, and we're gonna see how that plays out.
Given the history of police reform, I could see them continuing to grow as police forces just stop paying attention and allow them to get away with anything while brutally crushing anyone else.
This issue is and always will be an abolitionist issue. It's the same fucking shit we were dealing with 160 years ago.
It's utterly wild how no pundits or politicians have talked about purging the security state. It's clearly FAR past time, and I have no idea what is holding ALL of them back (many of them, yes, we know they like it as it is).
The solution to like 50% of our domestic problems could be solved by gutting the police state and the alphabets. The other 50% could be solved with moving that money into the right places.
Bonus is that doing the first half necessitates the second half and also forces empire to pull back abroad
I mean no shit the NatSec freaks collaborate with this one-party state that has two of them, but they haven't been this blatant about their displeasure with a President since I guess fucking Kennedy
I think that's probably because they've internalised the two party system so they are now an additional form of normative institutional power, which is why they have both gone against Trump and failed to accomplish anything (at least not more than prior presidencies)
3 years later and they took over the capitol today.
If you asked Matt yesterday he would have said nothing would happen today.

The mode of production shifted drastically today, power moved to the other faction of the capitalists today, we saw a great significan-
Oh, they milled around, one person tried to break down a door and was shot, and nothing else happened.

Because the national security state has been collaborating with the media for like four years to get Trump removed from office.
Talk about coup attempts, start with John Brennan, James Clapper, Christopher Steele, and MSNBC
more like forty to be honest, actually scratch that it might be almost a century now, since the first red scare really
