Disgraceful and outrageous

 


Assume this will be loudly protested.  

A future Democratic administration should dig her up and put her somewhere else.

Count on it

One thing that nobody has paid much attention to, but they should, is the fact that Trump and the people close to him have called for Capitol Police Officer Michael Byrd to be prosecuted for murder in the shooting death of Ashli Babbitt on J6. Trump could very easily have his DOJ open up an investigation and charge Byrd, and I would not be shocked if that happens.

Assume his job would cover attorney's fees.
Along those lines, some have called on Trump to appoint Matt Gaetz as a Special Counsel. This could be exactly the kind of thing that would be right up Gaetz’s alley. Gaetz responded to the idea by pointing out that the Biden Admin took the position with the Jack Smith appointment that Special Counsels do not require Senate confirmation.
...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

And a woman was shot and killed

A woman was shot inside the Capitol on Wednesday after violent pro-Trump protesters stormed the building, according to reporters from CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC. An MSNBC producer shared images of someone who appeared to be injured being transported on a stretcher. The news outlet also reported that a law-enforcement official fired the shot.

The circumstances surrounding the shooting remained unclear in the immediate aftermath.

Trump should share the penalty. How many times have we said Trump's going to get somebody killed?

UPDATE:
The woman who was shot inside US Capitol during riots Wednesday afternoon was pronounced dead at an area hospital, a spokesperson with the Metropolitan Police Department confirmed to CNN.

The woman shot dead as a mob of President Donald Trump’s supporters violently stormed the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday has been identified by her family as an Air Force vet who was an outspoken supporter of Trump.

Local San Diego news outlet KUSI named the woman as Ashli Babbitt, a San Diego resident who is said to have served 14 years in the military.

Babbitt supported the violent pro-Trump QAnon conspiracy theory, according to her Twitter account. She quoted “Q,” the anonymous figure behind QAnon, which falsely claims Democrats and other opponents of President Trump are Satanic pedophiles, in an Aug. 21 tweet, writing: “It is going to be biblical - Q.” On Sept. 7, Babbitt posted a picture of herself at a Trump boat parade with the hashtag “WWG1WGA,” a reference to the QAnon slogan, “Where we go one, we go all.”On Jan. 1, she tweeted that she would be in Washington for Jan. 6, adding “WWG1WGA.” On Jan. 5, a day before her death, Babbitt tweeted references to another QAnon slogan, “dark to light,” and said the United States would soon see “The Storm”—a moment much awaited by QAnon followers, in which Trump would execute his opponents in the Democratic Party.

“They can try and try and try but the storm is here and it is descending upon DC in less than 24 hours....dark to light!” Babbitt wrote.

Jesus wept. Trump did this.

She'll be their martyr, so she won't have died in vain.
