Since the January Capitol mini-riot, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) have delivered stellar political performances, even imposing a military occupation of our nation s capital and surrounding the Capitol building with high-security checkpoints through fences topped with concertina wire. Frankly, architect William Thornton s beautiful 19th-century neoclassic masterpiece now looks more like a maximum security prison and given the felonious behavior of many leftist politicos occupying the building, that s altogether fitting.
Of course, the $500 million was the taxpayer-funded tab for the security props around the movie set. The Demo cast is hoping for a big return at the (ballot) box office for their harrowing stories of hiding in bathrooms.

“Mum’s the word,” said Jeremy Russey, a vice president of the American Federation of Government Employees Local 918, which represents FPS officers. “I feel like everything was so anti-Trump that because we worked under the direction of the president at the time we were kind of lumped under his ‘stormtroopers.’”
âWisdom, and good examples are necessary at this time to rescue the political machine from the impending storm.â âGeorge Washington (1786)
