The Jan 6 riot was successful. Maybe this will put to bed the constant admonition that "riots don't work."

And yet I see Democrats keep beating that drum, keep framing Jan 6 as an attack on police instead of a coup. (And, yes, police officers were seriously hurt and died, also a lady was trampled to death although no one talks about that.)

This insistence the Democrats maintain that policing is "not political" has simply led to funding right-wing cops now terrorizing protestors and kidnapping people.

Had Democrats committed themselves to reducing the political power of law enforcement (and not funding them), we might not be here. Instead, both parties built up the law enforcement baronial class, an unaccountable law enforcement force that does what it wants, when it wants, how it wants.

This was just a few months after January 6, which is when I knew law enforcement organizations had every interest in defending January 6 because that was how they would amass power. Police do not work for "the people." (Then, of course, Biden funded them anyways.)
![When I asked Lamb whether the storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6 was an example of people violating the very rule of law he professes to cherish, he replied, “Just because somebody was there doesn’t necessarily mean they’re guilty,” then added, “I guarantee you [the rioters] are very loving, Christian people. They just happen to support President Trump a lot.” When I asked about the roughly 140 law enforcement officers who had been injured or killed while on duty at the Capitol — doing a job Lamb also professes to cherish — he demurred, saying he hadn’t been there and couldn’t say what was or wasn’t true.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:moejpt72sm743idbk3xc46mx/bafkreibvec5tridieut4xszudd2nlj5kcnmewybanhbv6r6tajk3o6ct4m@jpeg)

Biden got everyone back to poorly ventilated job sites and school buildings, back in the unfriendly skies, and then caught COVID himself 3 or 4 times while insisting that he listened to the science.

147 elected Republicans in Congress voted to overturn a free and fair election, in an attempted “polite” coup after the attempted violent one. We do not soeak of this enough, all these members violated their constitutional oath of office and none of them would have these seats, if we did it right.
