If the capitol police reacted on Jan 6 the way ICE did in this encounter there would have been dozens dead
There was amazing restraint and heroism by the U.S. Capitol Police and the Metropolitan Police Department on Jan. 6, 2021. They were viciously attacked by rightwing extremists and rioters incited by Trump.
Also, by their own standards, the cops protecting the Capitol on Jan 6 should have opened fire all over.

The man is simply not a President at all by any definition. He is not faithfully executing the laws nor tending to the needs of the people. He has no concept of national interest or sense of duty.

Yes, I’m sickened by that guy who randomly stabbed the Ukrainian girl to death. It’s terrifying, and enraging. But if I don’t ensure him all the procedures and protections that I want to be entitled to, I don’t get them either.
