Threats to Capitol prompt House to change vote schedule
By Mike Lillis - 03/03/21 04:38 PM EST

House Democrats will accelerate passage of a sweeping police reform bill, bringing the legislation to the floor Wednesday night amid revelations of new threats to the Capitol.

Democrats had initially intended a Thursday vote on the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act of 2021. They altered the schedule amid revelations of new threats to the Capitol on Thursday by violent militia groups.

The agency, responding to what the force called “a possible plot to

Exactly. It's the FBI that crashes in people's doors at 4 AM with CNN in tow.

They're just going to make these threats up and use them as justification for every Crack down henceforth.

They are moving fast to 'justify-rationalize' a military/security crisis and declare the Constitution, that they so greatly despise,null and void.

@BassWrangler @christian  We're on the same page. You aren't paranoid if they really are "out to get you".

They are looking desperately for an incident to try to justify their assault on the RKBA, and this is part of the groundwork.
If nothing happens, they can say it's because they did such a good job at preventing it.

Otherwise, they will pump up some bunch of half-wits and perform the op themselves or interdict it at the last moment, in true Hollywood style.

Beware false flag operations; the last one (at the Capitol) worked, and even sucked in a few people who were around just to protest.  Note how the DOJ is ignoring the provenance of some of the most prominent of the "rioters", and how the deaths there are blamed on the protest, even though it appears there were three from natural causes, one from injuries sustained by accident, and one, the only one intentionally killed, was shot by police(?) in the building.

Yes, the behavior of the FBI, in particular, is troublesome. If we ever win the presidency again, cleaning house in the FBI and DOJ needs to be near the top of the priority list.

As predicted by some of us AT election time, the democrats winning by election fraud may be be the end of our democracy because of democrats instituting laws that guarantee democrats will win all elections thereafter by legitimized/legalized election frauds.  Such legislation passed the house, and now just needs to pass the Senate.

It's interesting though, how they plan on doing this. Because the constitution leaves it to the states to determine how to conduct elections, they have some sort of plan to motivate the states to obey by threat of reducing the number of Representatives they get. This is what I read, and I don't understand how they can do that. But if it is the case, I can't think of anything that would be a greater motivation for secession than reducing a states representation in Congress. I think it will be challenged in court, and if the Dems stack SCOTUS to overcome that, there will be civil war.

Agree. Both agencies still carry the stink of Obama.

Don't worry. If too many questions are asked about this,"news" programs like "20/20" will have a special report on "Home-bred terror groups",complete with one of the leaders who is wearing a mask and whose identity is being kept secret,ratting out the whole movement.

Ifn you didn't know better,you might even think his testimony is so smooth and coherent that he is reading from a teleprompter.

Not until they have turned the whole capital hill area into a fenced compound guarded by a special police force.

As the Insurrection Narrative Crumbles, Democrats Cling to it More Desperately Than Ever
If the threat of "armed insurrectionists" and "domestic terrorists" is as great as some claim, why do they have to keep lying and peddling crude media fictions about it?   
Glenn Greenwald

Twice in the last six weeks, warnings were issued about imminent, grave threats to public safety posed by the same type of right-wing extremists who rioted at the Capitol on January 6. And both times, these warnings ushered in severe security measures only to prove utterly baseless.

First we had the hysteria over the violence we were told was likely to occur at numerous state capitols on Inauguration Day. “Law enforcement and state officials are on high alert for potentially violent protests in the lead-up to Inauguration Day, with some state capitols boarded up and others temporarily closed ahead of Wednesday's ceremony,” announced CNN. In an even scarier formulation, NPR intoned that “the FBI is warning of protests and potential violence in all 50 state capitals ahead of President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration.” ...

This is how apocalyptic cult leaders always function. When the end of the world did not materialize on January 6, Collins insisted that January 20 was the day of the violent reckoning. When nothing happened on that day, he moved the Doomsday Date to March 4. The flock cannot remain in a state of confusion for too long about why the world has not ended as promised by the prophet, so a new date must quickly be provided with an explanation for why this is serious business this time. ...

Do you know what happened on March 4 when it came to violence from right-wing extremists? The same thing that happened on January 20: absolutely nothing. There were no attempted attacks on the Capitol, state capitols, or any other government institution. There was violent crime registered that day in Washington D.C. but none of it was political violence by those whom media outlets warned posed such a grave danger that Congress has to be closed and militarization of Washington extended indefinitely.

Perhaps the most significant blow to the maximalist insurrection/coup narrative took place inside the Senate on Thursday. Ever since January 6, those who were not referring to the riot as a “coup attempt” — as though the hundreds of protesters intended to overthrow the most powerful and militarized government in history — were required to refer to it instead as an “armed insurrection.”

This formulation was crucial not only for maximizing fear levels about the Democrats’ adversaries but also, as I’ve documented previously, because declaring an “armed insurrection” empowers the state with virtually unlimited powers to act against the citizenry.  ...
