Well.
Sure wasn't a pleasant thing to wake up to. And no matter who was responsible or engaged in it.
Fortunately not too much damage done and doesn't appear to have gone on that long either (relatively speaking). But it's the principle more than anything else.
I'll probably get shot at dawn for saying this (figuratively speaking): but I don't think President Trump meant for this to happen neither do I believe the bullshit being, as per usual, spun by the media. I watched his speech made just before this all started. And anybody that understood what he said to be incitement to violence and an attack on the Capitol building is as dumb a fuck as that piece of shit in the raccoon hat.
Also been watching the Pennsylvania objections. The Republicans win the argument hands down. The rest of them just don't, or refuse to, get it.
Anyway. Well done to all of them for pushing on though. Dunno how long they're going to be able to keep this up for without taking a break though.
@OpiateKiller. We're on the same side dude (as I'm sure is obvious). I just don't know what to believe anymore to be honest. Something is fucked though. That's for sure. And as I keep saying: it's not limited to what's going on in America. But for sure somebody somewhere is stoking the fires. And this (potentially) shiny new blue government is just going to open the floodgates to further subversion by whoever it may be.
Nice parallel drawn re: North Korea by the way.
And maybe you're right about all of this too. For some reason I'm conflicted and maybe that's why. I had no problem back in 1993 when Yeltsin opened fire with tanks on the Russian Parliament (ironically fully supported and praised by Bill Clinton and the Democrats at the time) (wonder if there's a pattern here) (just thinking out aloud is all) (although and as I also keep saying: this not the same Democrats of today). Suppose I'd feel differently if the Republicans stayed in power and the (new) Democrats decided to stage a sit in!
I dunno. This is all just such a mind fuck that I reckon it's time for me to once again take a bit of a step back and/or butt out of American politics. And back to RT and Al Jazeera and maybe a re-run of President Putin's news conference and Russian Navy Day of last year. Always has a calming effect!

And then back to research and business!
