<\/div>\n

The white nationalist barbarians, aided and abetted by their F\u00fchrer\u2014President Donald J. Trump\u2014stormed and entered the gate(s) at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, January 6, 2021. The seditionists include those who brazenly entered the so-called people\u2019s house,<\/sup> responsible for death, destruction and mayhem, along with their snowflake leader who suckered them to do so from afar, lying that he would be there with them<\/a>!<\/p>\n

In terms of those who have already be identified and arrested<\/a>, where more should follow, shouldn\u2019t all who entered the Capitol building also face murder charges? Let\u2019s consider this scenario: Two people rob a store, where one of them kills the clerk and the other one steals the money. In this case, typically, both will be charged with different degrees of murder, apart from armed robbery and other charges. Why should those who engaged in an attempted coup, a more serious crime, be treated any differently? I\u2019m sure if the seditionists were brown or black, as many others have articulated<\/a>, the brutal nature of the State and its agents of suppression would\u2019ve been on full display. If they were Muslims, this scenario would\u2019ve provided Trump with a false pretext to invade Iran, like in the case of 9\/11 with former President George W. Bush and Iraq.<\/p>\n

As we focus our national attention on the culprits behind this attempted coup, let\u2019s not forget the strong and powerful supporters of Trump, where they should also be held accountable (or eternally shamed at minimum), like the late Senator Joseph McCarthy<\/a>, for the vitriol rhetoric and events leading up to the violent and deadly attack on the Capitol. This includes, among others, Trump\u2019s immediate family (especially Donald Jr., Jared and Ivanka!); Trump subordinates, like Chief of Staff Mark Meadows and the guy who didn\u2019t get hugged as a kid, Stephen Miller; soon-to-be-disbarred Rudy Giuliani<\/a>; idiotic and immoral Republican leaders in Congress, like Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Ted Cruz (R-TX), Josh Hawley (R-MO), Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), Devin Nunes (R-CA),  Jim Jordan (R-OH), Matt Gaetz (R-FL), etc.; and, let\u2019s not forget the estimated 74 million people who voted for the most incompetent and deranged President in U.S. history.<\/p>\n

By courting, supporting and encouraging white supremist groups and militias, some of whom are well armed and trained given their police and\/or military background, snowflakes like Trump and his minions at the White House and Congress are playing with fire. For instance, when Trump repeatedly says that CNN is the enemy of the people, at any time, no one should be surprised if his armed supporters seriously harm CNN reporters. In fact, given Trump\u2019s violent rhetoric about \u201cliberating Michigan\u201d and targeting Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, it didn\u2019t take long for his armed supporters to plan to kidnap her<\/a>. As usual, when others do the dirty work for the snowflake Trump, he acts like an armchair mafioso, denying any link with those who follow his orders\u2014coded or not.<\/p>\n

In terms of pretending to be a tough guy, as I\u2019ve written before, such as in The Hill<\/em><\/a> (09\/09\/16), \u201c[i]f he\u2019s really a tough guy, I invite him to my old barrio\u2014without private bodyguards, Secret Service agents and local police\u2014to reassert his claim that Mexican immigrants constitute \u2018drug dealers,\u2019 \u2018criminals\u2019 and \u2018rapists.\u2019 If he can\u2019t repeat these racist generalizations directly to the people he\u2019s attacking, then he\u2019s a coward.\u201d I must say that I\u2019m amazed that Trump supporters take all of the risks with jail time and bodily harm to follow the orders of their F\u00fchrer, while Trump is playing golf or waiting for the attempted coup to start with his ilk and family<\/a>, as if they\u2019re at a Patriots football tailgate party!<\/p>\n

While I can go on and on, I\u2019ll say end with this: Trump must not only be removed from office<\/a>, he must also be arrested and prosecuted for aiding and abetting an attempted coup against the United States of America. This must be done before he pardons everyone in his criminal orbit, including himself. This includes the sycophant Vice President Mike Pence, along with the remaining complicit cabinet!<\/p>\n

Notes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Despite the abhorrent attempted coup, let\u2019s not forget that the governing elite and monied classes, throughout American history, have used the U.S. Capitol as a base to steal the lands of Native Americans and break treaties, enslave Blacks and kill them, violently annex territory from Mexico (1848) and scapegoat their people on both side of la frontera<\/em>, engage in domestic\/foreign espionage and imperialist wars, etc. \u2191<\/a><\/p>\n\n
