tl;dr: Our government is a disgusting, pathetic, shameful joke.

Reminds me of David Koresh. He went into town several times a week and could have been arrested any one of those times instead of setting innocent women and children on fire at the compound.

"What is this if it isn't theater?"

I'd call it state terrorism.

It is absolutely disgusting what the US Justice Department has done to the people who participated in January 6th. This type of theatre is no doubt a warning to any others who plan to protest any other election outcome if the Democrats win. It is not unlike how the Trudeau government here went after the Freedom Convoy. Two of the primary targets Tamara Lich and Chris Barber, so called organizers are right now on trial for various 'mischief charges'. I have sat in on a lot of if and it is ridiculous, and obvious the prosecutor or Crown as we call them here doesn't have a case. So far we have wasted 22 days of their time and thousands if not millions in taxpayer dollars on this nonsense. As they say the process is the punishment. Fortunately both of these people have generous crowdfunding resources helping to pay their very hefty legal fees. Worse yet, there are four men who have been sitting in jail for over 600 days, who have yet to be convicted of any crime. They have become known as the Coutts Four in the very small circle of people following their plight. They were arrested after raids were conducted at the border blockade protest that occurred in support of the Freedom Convoy in the border town of Coutts Alberta. The RCMP arrested them on trumped up charges of conspiracy to murder police officers. It is a long a convoluded story that points to some very serious nefarious actions on the part o the Trudeau government and our federal police the RCMP. I have written at length on this in my Substack. https://roxannehalverson.substack.com/p/new-documents-reveal-more-government

These men are being house in remand centres that are not set up for long term prisoners. They do not have access to daily exercise times, they do not have access to other anemities offered in most prisons to inmates such as education, libraries, internet access. And they have yet to even be convicted of a crime. They have often been held in solitary confinement, health concerns have not been addressed, they were forbidden to communicate with familty members for the longest time. All of them have families and children they have not seen. Their trial has been stalled by bad faith action on the part of the Crown including late disclosure, and what might even be seen as prosecutorial misconduct.

Conduct like this on the part of the Trudeau government is clearly a message to any who protest its policies, they will pay a price. Not so different from what the Biden administration has done to the January 6th participants, some of who did nothing more than attend the protest.

Thank you, Chris, for making me laugh.

Things in the US seem to be getting worse and worse. I think one of the best responses is to make fun of the utter foolishness going on in our government.

What a bunch of maroons. We're living in ridiculous times.

Terrifying, too. A friend of mine was in DC that day and is expecting the feebs to apprehend her any day now.

Looks like they pulled that mayor out of a drag queen story hour to get that riveting interview with him.

Can’t wait to see closing number of the Broadway version: after a tense standoff, CanMan emerges from the woods and bear-sprays the shit out the feds, followed by a raucous song and dance tussle between our hero and a bunch of blinded morons in sparkly tap shoes. Maybe they could get that binary freak who got fired for stealing women’s clothes from their luggage to do the costumes.

Our world is beyond parody now.

It’s ridiculous that grown men are foolish enough to follow such orders

Why do you scare me like this! I'm not going to be able to fall asleep tonight knowing that this spray wielding maniac is on the loose

What is truly amazing is that our law enforcement agencies hire lower and lower IQ individuals because no one with any sense wants to be a part of that. My local police are offering bonuses to people who can pass the testing process and actually accept the job. The turn out for the test has dropped to the point where 25% of the candidates who actually qualify is a number smaller than they need to replace the retirees and flat out quitters. Outsmarting people of that caliber is not difficult, as can be observed in the skyrocketing number of unsolved crimes in this country.

No one is coming to save you. You must be ready and armed to protect yourself. Especially from the government.

This was the lead story on the WABC NYC 5:00 p.m. news last evening. Residents were urged to shelter in place while authorities searched for the "January 6th Insurrectionist." This is no longer funny. Hemingway's line from The Sun Also Rises, much used by pundits, "How did you go bankrupt/" "Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly" is happening regarding our basic freedoms. The State's need for power is insatiable and corporate media is a willing partner. The Department of Justice has become the Department of Injustice. The January 6th Insurrectionist is the 21st century Emmanuel Goldstein. Orwell knew.

Yet Ray Epps managed to hide in plain sight for almost as long. No SWAT teams or FBI agents in camo were required to issue him the equivalent of a parking ticket. As late as September this year ABC characterized him as a victim of a Jan 6 conspiracy theory, though there is video of him repeatedly, overtly inciting people to breach the Capitol. Old news now, I know, but compare and contrast. This basterdization of justice is one of the greatest tragedies to befall the country in my nearly seventy years of life, as it signals the end of the USA that I pledged allegiance to nearly every day as a kid. It is gone, apparently, like my youth, though I believe I'm aging much better than Uncle Sam.

It's got to be done.

"Listen up, ladies and gentlemen. Our fugitive has been on the run for 90 minutes. Average foot speed over uneven ground, barring injuries, is 4 miles-an-hour. That gives us a radius of six miles. What I want out of each and every one of you is a hard-target search of every gas station, residence, warehouse, farmhouse, henhouse, outhouse and doghouse in that area. Checkpoints go up at fifteen miles. Your fugitive’s name is Gregory Yetman. Go get him.

Forget border crossing Hamas or Hezbollah, let's get those J6ers! Forget the crimes being committed across the country. But J6er - GET HIM!

I am terribly disappointed in the lack of diversity among the local, state, and federal nazis, uh, I mean law enforcement shown in the news clip. There were no people of color and zero people with vaginas. And definitely not one person of unusual hair color (PUHC). I could just cry. Or maybe go outside and scream at the sky. This dangerous criminal might have a kitchen fork or even a can of hairspray with him ... even though the fear-mongering mayor says the obviously law-abiding resident who has zero criminal background is not a danger to anyone anywhere.

Joking aside, I’m fearful -- for that poor guy running for his life because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time three years ago, doing nothing criminal and hurting no one. 🙁
