7 Jan 2021 and beyond - the aftermath of the storming of the Capitol

The NYP story doesn’t have the part that makes the “self love” comment make sense:

Ryan, who runs a life-coaching business called SelfLoveU and has previously hosted an advertising segment on a local radio station, dug in further on Twitter, retweeting election conspiracies and offering to provide real estate services if Texas secedes from the Union.

“You can never cancel Jenna Ryan,” she wrote. However, by Monday, she said her publisher had canceled her self help book that was due out next month.

Thanks for that. Hopefully she’ll also be “cancelled” from her real estate business, but then, she operates in Texas. One thing Texas has in common with quiet northern Ontario lakes: both places have a lot of loons.

Hahahahahahahaha… [Deep breath] Hahahahahahahaha hahahahahaha…ha

In other words, so he can use Air Force 1 without having to ask permission from Biden.

Then why is the thread on her in the Pit?

One of my current worries is that he’ll try the classic “leader in exile” thing and wash up in an unextraditable place like Russia where he can beam messages to his followers that he’s really the president indefinitely, but can’t really be prosecuted or taken offline.

Racist President, Racist Senate, what do you expect?

They’re just now noticing it? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

They finally noticed that their hot tub is boiling.

I need to repeat the joke that I am sure many have heard:

“What about this 4 year gap on your resume?”

“I was in prison, I swear! I was never part of the Trump administration!”

Predicting the end of the GOP seems a stretch but right now I think the Democratic party is in a position of strength.

I find the willful ignorance fascinating, if somewhat depressing. I found a Facebook post on the NYT with the this opening paragraph:

Over the last 72 hours, I have received multiple death threats and thousands upon thousands of emails from Christians saying the nastiest and most vulgar things I have ever heard toward my family and ministry. I have been labeled a coward, sellout, a traitor to the Holy Spirit, and cussed out at least 500 times.

How could someone not see the hate being spewed before Jan 6? It sure looks to be an eye-opening experience for him. I guess better late than never.

I really, really want to make sure that some of Jenna Ryan’s story is preserved and well-known; this lady is crazy and a danger to our society, IMO.

All quotes taken from this Daily Beast article:

And my favorite:

Well, your freedomdelusion is more important to you than other people’s lives, you’ve made made that perfectly clear.

See, they’re not only demonstrating for their right to be infected by the zombie virus, they’re also demonstrating for their right to be shot in the head shoulder.

It may even be more important to her than her own. Doesn’t matter. She’s not entitled to help get other people killed for her delusions even if she’s willing to die for them herself.

– she thinks there are “professional” rioters? – never mind, of course she does. She probably thinks they’re paid by Soros.

There have been at least two letters to my semi-local paper claiming (among other things) that the Republicans wanted to approve the $2000 payments but the Democrats blocked them.

I understand they’re paid union scale, with double overtime if they can make the riot go into the wee hours.

Did the paper also label that information as false, or did they publish it uncritically?

Remember in “Ocean’s Eleven” when part of the brilliant casino robbery plan was taking film and pictures of themselves, including irrefutable evidence of their identities, and sending them to both Andy Garcia and the Las Vegas police?

No, wait.

Well, there kinda are. The Black Bloc anarchists are pretty much FT rioters.

Oddly all the bad things the GOP lays at the feet of Antifa and BLM can be blamed on those anarchists and right wing infiltrators. Odd that they dont even seem to know the Black Bloc is a thing, even tho many nations list it as a terrorist org.
