Trump Supporters Storming The Capitol! - MAGA Coup Mega-Thread

[Sempiternity]

US intelligence officials have warned that last Wednesday’s attack on the US Capitol by supporters of President Trump will likely motivate additional follow-up attacks by extremists throughout 2021, according to an intelligence bulletin dated Wednesday and obtained by CNN.

Warning that the people who attacked the Capitol largely viewed their efforts as a success, the FBI, Department of Homeland Security, and Office of the Director of National Intelligence said the attack “very likely will serve as a significant driver of violence” for a diverse set of domestic extremists, according to the bulletin. 

The bulletin added follows reporting this week that extremists were emboldened by the attack and that “chatter is off the charts right now," the bulletin said.

“The violent breach of the US Capitol Building is very likely part of an ongoing trend in which [extremists] exploit lawful protests, rallies, and demonstrations, and other gatherings to carry out ideologically-motivated violence and criminal activity,” the intelligence bulletin warned. 

The range of potential future targets of attack was varied, with intelligence officials warning in the bulletin that extremists could zero in on government officials and institutions, as well as racial and religious minorities, journalists, and members of the LGBTQ+ community.

The bulletin also indicated that the Jan. 6 attack may have served as a venue for extremists of differing ideological motivations to foster connections.

In addition to the perceived success of the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, intelligence officials warned that the response by law enforcement could also motivate extremists to respond with violence, including at the upcoming Jan. 20 inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden.

“Since the [Capitol attack], violent online rhetoric regarding the [inauguration] has increased, with some calling for unspecified ‘justice’” for a rioter shot by police inside the Capitol, the bulletin said.

A unique and worthwhile perspective of Trump á la James Comey. It changed the way I view Trump. It's worse than I thought. Now I more fully appreciate how much he embodies the ruthlessness of Red, like a mafia boss. His constant flipping sides made him seem more insane to me before, but actually it is pure egoic survival - deliberate, callous and unappologetic. Trump will use whatever means he can to defend himself, and throw any- and everybody under the bus. Which in a sense is more obvious than ever now after the storming of capitol. Still, seeing him interact with Comey in private clearly reveals him more deeply. From day 1 in office he has had one agenda only, for Trump to win whatever harm it does to others. I have a feeling he sees the Russians as a much greater threat to himself than the Americans. It is remarkable how much devilry he has gotten away with, including before his presidency. May that all change now and democracy in the US be strengthened to not allow this to ever happen again.

That's bad news.

He could be prosecuted legally in traditional courts. That’s a totally different system than a senate prosecution

Indeed. When he is no longer president, Trump (and his family) could face jail over tax fraud. No idea how likely it is but according to clip below Trump is much worse than Nixon and it's possible he could be convicted.

Can these pardons really work? 

I find it so shocking that people can do things and simply get pardoned. 

That's not constitutional imo.

It won't work, but that won't stop him from doing it.

It’s crazy.

The good thing is with all this mess they will be fighting against each other. 
But Giuliani also deserve some kind of punishment for all his lying and craziness. Let’s see what happens

Theoretically Trump can step down in the last few days, let Mike Pence become the President and get pardoned by him. 

But I don't think he'll do it. He's too narcissistic to step down.

@Husseinisdoingfine People will use the 20th to defend their identity against the threat of oppression just as they defended it on the 6th.

I don't really care about the impeachment, I just want to know if there's going to be danger January 20th

It's impossible that anything serious can happen on January 20th, because of the security. At least in Washington DC.
