Another January 6 Falsehood: $30 Million in Damages to the Capitol

The U.S. Capitol Police on Monday morningย conductedย what it called a โ€œroutineโ€ training exercise on the grounds of the Capitol. The stagecraft, almost five months to the day from the January 6 protest, involved emergency vehicles and helicopters. The agency warned area residents not to be โ€œalarmed,โ€ which of course was the exact reaction USCP wanted.

Call it insurrection theater. The USCP has acted as the Democratic Partyโ€™s stormtroopers since January 6,ย attackingย peaceful Americans during the protest,ย lyingย about the death of officer Brian Sicknick, and now making officers available for embarrassing cable newsย hitsย where they share their hurt feelings and the permanent trauma theyโ€™ve suffered since enduring the supposedly harrowing ordeal. The distressed officers, however, seem just fine with the fact that a still-unidentified colleague shot and killed an unarmed woman, Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt.

Capitol-employed apparatchiks have played aย key roleย in shaping the narrative about what happened on January 6, all in service to their Democratic paymasters.

The seat of American democracy, we are told, was attacked by bloodthirsty Trump-supporting thugs; not only did lawmakers and Vice President Mike Pence barely escape with their lives, the building suddenly transformedโ€”in the eyes of congressional Democratsโ€”from a house built by slaves representing Americaโ€™s systemic racism to hallowed ground conceived by Americaโ€™s founding fathers that was severely damaged and forever stained by alleged โ€œinsurrectionists.โ€

(Funny, it was only a short year ago in the aftermath of the George Floyd riots when Democratic lawmakers beganย removingย statues in an effort to purge the building of its racist roots. โ€œTheir statues pay homage to hate, not heritage,โ€ House Speaker Nancy Pelosiย saidย in July 2020.)

The four-hour disturbance, when a handful of people unquestionably acted badly and deserve to be punished accordingly, has been compared to the worst terror attacks in U.S. history, including 9/11 and Pearl Harbor. โ€œThe Capitol grounds, outside and inside, are essentially a crime scene,โ€ acting U.S. Attorney for D.C.ย Michael Sherwinย said during a January 12 press briefing. At the same presser, a top FBI official repeatedly referred to the โ€œdestructionโ€ that occurred on January 6.

Videos of smashed windows and stolen podiums bolster the idea that the Capitol sustained major damage. At least three dozen people arrested so far in the sprawling, ongoing Justice Department investigation have beenย chargedย withย destroying government property.
