Purge in the Offing

The Democrats say they were briefed on a plot to surround the Capitol on inauguration day.

What does that tell us class? There are moles or the government is itself in on it. So why did it reach the point of violence in D.C.? Increasingly this looks like a Reichstag fire.

Democrats say police briefed them on plot by armed extremists to surround the US Capitol on Inauguration Day

From the Blaze article:

According to Democratic lawmakers who have spoken to the media, at least one plot involves a plan to take members of Congress hostage or even assassinate them as part of an insurrection against the U.S. government.

Reports by HuffPost and others indicate Democratic lawmakers were told of three planned demonstrationsthat could possibly lead to violence. One demonstration was billed as the "largest armed protest ever to take place on American soil," according to members of Congress who spoke to HuffPost anonymously.

A second protest will reportedly be held to honor Ashli Babbitt, the woman killed by Capitol Police during the Jan. 6 storming of the U.S. Capitol by Trump supporters.

The third reported plot is a planned insurrection against Congress to remove Democrats from power.

Rep. Conor Lamb (D-Penn.) on Tuesday told CNNhe was briefed on this plan, which involves thousands of armed "patriots" who intend to surround the Capitol building and prevent Democratic lawmakers from entering the building.

Odd no Republican lawmakers are verifying this.

Democrat Connor Lamb says:

"They were talking about 4,000 armed 'patriots' to surround the Capitol and prevent any Democrat from going in," Lamb said. "They have published rules of engagement, meaning when you shoot and when you don't. So this is an organized group that has a plan. They are committed to doing what they're doing because I think in their minds, you know, they are patriots and they're talking about 1776 and so this is now a contest of wills."

"We are not negotiating with or reasoning with these people. They have to be prosecuted. They have to be stopped. And unfortunately, that includes the president, which is why he needs to be impeached and removed from office," he added.

Wouldn't that be the exact wrong approach, to slap the bear on the muzzle? Wouldn't the impeachment of Trump, the man being portrayed as Der Fuehrer, simply enrage these people? Wouldn't reconciliation be the logical approach at this time?

This shows a purge is in the offing.
