U.S. Senator Schumer Compares Wednesday's Capital Hill Riot To The Attack On Pearl Harbor

Summit News: Greenwald: “Obscene and Reckless” For Schumer to Compare Capitol Hill Riot to Pearl Harbor 

Democrat Senator puts storming of Capitol building on a par with attack that killed over 2,400 Americans. Journalist Glenn Greenwald slammed Senator Chuck Schumer as “obscene and reckless” for comparing yesterday’s Capitol Hill riot to Pearl Harbor, an attack which killed over 2,400 Americans. 

Following the riot, during which Trump supporters stormed the Capitol building, Schumer gave a speech on the Senate floor in which he said January 6 was a date which would “live in infamy,” mirroring President Franklin Roosevelt’s speech after the Pearl Harbor attack.

Chuck Schumer has been a so-called public servant of New York for 46 years.

I challenge any of your NY readers to name one single positive thing he has ever done for New Yorkers.

Four people died

1 Ashli Babbit, 35-years-old, Huntington, Maryland
2 Benjamin Phillips, 50-years-old, Ringtown, Pennsylvania
3 Kevin Greeson, 55-years-old, Athens, Alabama
4 Roseanne Boylan, 34-years-old, Kennesaw, Georgia.

1 Shot by police. Then every liberal TV asshole went on TV and said if it would have been BLM, black people would have been shot. In actuality, reality is was 180 degrees opposite of that the li9b assholes said.

2 Stroke
3 Heart attack
4 Trampled to death

Phillips and Greeson would have died within the year, I think due physical condition in their arteries.

"Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund has also announced his resignation effective January 16."

He should resign. They way to defuse this was to arrest anyone in black dressed or acting like ANTIFA.

Trump said "I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard."

Trump did not say bash the door with rocks or throw flares. ANTIFA did that. ANMTIFA is supported with bail money by Kamala and other reprobates.

A caller into the Rush Limbaugh show said someone asked him and his friend to come over to the Capital building (ATIFA). Then when they were near the steps the guy let off a flare behind towards the police. He used those guys as cover. When they turned around they guy had a worried look of "I got caught" . The call might be fake. The guy seems naive to me. I have no doubt that all the flares and door smashing was ANTIFA.

And the Dems have not done one thing to ANTIFA except raise bail money for ANTIFA, let them burn cities, and drop charges as DA's.

ANTIFA lighting off flares, hitting police and others with 2 x 4's committing arson and other acts might be the lowest grade of kinetic warfare to exist, but it is nonetheless kinetic warfare and the Democrats have supported it.

If you think it was anti fa then you are full of shit...just do a search and discover the planned march against the govt...
why would a anti trump group do this why would a pro group do this?
Trump egged them on. Why?
The GOP, T. Cotton, all the papers now recognize what took place but you continue top live in denial. It was a pro Trump group. Read, for example, the background story on the former military lady who got shot...that is in the NY Times. She was anti Democrat and had history of violent rhetoric....so live in your make believe world.You are now with a smaller and smaller group of conspiracy thinkers who have become put in time out corner, even by the GOP

Claims Antifa Embedded in Capitol Riots Come From a Deeply Unreliable Facial Recognition Company
XRVision also has a track record of spreading conspiracy theories about Hunter Biden

Anon (5:48PM),

Thanks for the information. I was not aware of Trump's exact quote. The quote is consistent with what Trump would use and it is consistent of the media to distort anything and everything he says. Therefore I think it reasonable to conclude you are accurate.

I haven't been aware of any specific claims that it was ANTIFA however it is consistent with their modus operandi and Trump gear is easy to obtain in order to blend in with the crowd. During the summer ANTIFA demonstrated the ability to move and operate with military like precision and part of warfare is often deception. In contrast, this is not the modus operandi of Trump supporters. It is a shame that few lawbreakers have distracted from the very real and legitimate concerns about electoral fraud and electoral integrity.

Another thing many of us will remember about Trump is during his term no new foreign wars or expansion of existing ones. Unfortunately this is overshadowed by the dark events of 1/6/21.
