Media Hysteria And The Insurrection That Wasn’t
In the worst case yet of media hysteria, the Media Industrial Complex accused President Donald Trump of inciting an insurrection, when about 100 cretins breached the Capitol. Five deaths were attributed to this violent action. I owe Donald Trump a huge mea culpa. Listening to the media hysteria, I laid part of the blame on President Trump when I wrote a post last week. The Capitol breach is far more complicated than it originally looked.
With 20/20 hindsight, this situation needs far more scrutiny than what we saw on our screens. It used to be said that the unblinking eye of the camera told the truth. So not true. The camera only gives you a sliver of the truth.
As the Democrat leaders became more frenzied in their calls for Trump to resign or Vice President Mike Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment and threatened a second Impeachment Trial, it made me question the sequence of events. There are times when a situation is just too convenient.
Trump was late to his talk at the Save America rally. Because Trump is Trump, he fed off of the crowd He began speaking just after noon and spoke for about one hour and 15 minutes. Nowhere in his rally talk did Trump incite violence. I have watched the speech twice now and read the transcript. From the last part of the Trump speech:
Donald Trump: (01:12:43)
So we’re going to, we’re going to walk down Pennsylvania Avenue, I love Pennsylvania Avenue, and we’re going to the Capitol and we’re going to try and give… The Democrats are hopeless. They’re never voting for anything, not even one vote. But we’re going to try and give our Republicans, the weak ones, because the strong ones don’t need any of our help, we’re going to try and give them the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country.Donald Trump: (01:13:19)
So let’s walk down Pennsylvania Avenue. I want to thank you all. God bless you and God bless America. Thank you all for being here, this is incredible. Thank you very much. Thank you.
If you care to watch the speech again, here it is in full:
And, the crowd begins shuffling their way to Capitol Hill. The distance from the Ellipse to Capitol Hill is about 1.6 miles or about 35 minutes. Except, I walked with a Trump rally crowd on December 11. Because everyone was talking and taking pictures and there were people with walkers and canes, it took longer than it should have.
Think about all of the Trump rallies you have seen. Those are happy, law-abiding people. If Trump had told them to breach the Capitol, they would have said, “Are you nuts?” But, the media hates us. They really don’t care about stopping Donald Trump. It is those of us on the Trump Train who must learn our places. We are here to serve our betters. We need to shut up and do as we are told.
The rally participants are walking to the Capitol, but the breach has already begun. According to USA Today, law enforcement began contact with protesters at ten minutes after 1.00 P.m. Eastern Time. Notice Trump was still talking.
Ashli Babbitt, one of the protesters, was a fervent Qanon type who embraced “the storm”:
She wanted to march on Washington DC alongside other Trump supporters, and posted excitedly that a “storm” was about to arrive.
Among those who support the conspiracy, the protest was said to have indicated that “The Storm” was imminent, which they believed was the day Mr Trump would overcome the so-called “deep state”.
Miss Babbitt was killed early on in the melee. I have watched the video 15 to 20 times and it makes me ask more and more questions. The black gloved shooter on the other side of the door, Miss Babbitt at the front of a group. After she is shot, the police coming up the stairs tell the unseen shooter to back up. I know how chaotic the moment must have been, but it smells big time.
And, Nancy Pelosi’s son in law, Michiel Voss, a journalist, film producer, and lawyer was there “covering the event” and stopped to take a selfie with another Qanon-type. You remember the guy in the horns and face paint. From Twitter:
Yes, it’s all so weird. Squish Republicans can’t wait to throw Trump overboard to save their own careers. As our guest blogger wrote, there is the feel of a script to this. So many questions. No answers. Olympic leaps to conclusions.
Trump didn’t encourage violence and I beg his forgiveness and yours. I let the media hysteria get the better of me. The whole point of this pointless, deadly mise en scene was to blame Trump.
