Hearing on Capitol Attack, evidence that attack was planned and coordinated: first wave left before speech was over so LE would not be ready; climbing equipment; explosives; bear mace; radios; hand signals.
CD Chief: I was on the call with the Pentagon - could not believe the tepid response; never said "yes"; Sund was pleading for support; would not deny or grant the request. "I was just stunned at that response."
There is a difference of almost AN HOUR between when Chief Sund says he requested National Guard and when House Sargent at Arms Irvings said that Sund made that request.
Sund: The pipe bombs caused the evacuation of two federal buildings, which itself took a ton of resources. (Over some hints that the timing of the "discovery" of the pipe bombs is suspicious as hell).
For those asking who is telling the truth in this hearing ... its hard to know. With 4 witnesses to the same event, you get 4 different stories. The differences are not necessarily lies, but could be. DC Police Chief corroborated that Sund "pleaded" with Pentagon for Natl Guard.

I previously posted about the massively awesome Dem House Bill 1 - the first thing Dems did on Jan 4, 2021, that includes the Voting Rights Act and a zillion other important things WHAT HAVE THE REPUBS BEEN UP TO?
The FIRST THING Rs did to help the American people is to audit the Fed. Because F the American people, we need more volatility. (And look at that list of a holes). Image
The second thing - I shit you not - they propose to help the american people is to DEFUND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and ABOLISH THE IRS Image

Merrick Mthrfxn Garland's opening statement. A reading original documents with Dirk and #DemsDoGood thread. Let's goddamn go. Opening comments for the 2 22 2021 hearing. A THREAD.
Merrick lays it out: he serves no president or anyone else. He serves justice; the people of the United States and, he serves with the people of the Department of Justice.
He is not going to roll over the executive. He will serve his oath to the rule of law.

Gather 'round children. Let me tell you the story of an American hero, smart person and nurse. A thread. And a touch of #DemsDoGood. And maybe a love story.
She is head of the Department of Bioethics at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center. Let's break that down. The NIH is one of the greatest governmental research orgs to exist on the planet, ever. The CC is its research hospital, where they apply medical science.
The most difficult questions in medicine are about how to research ethically. By definition, you are trying unproven treatments. You have to ask patients to roll the dice WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW if treatment will help. My very good friend - now passed on - was at CC for treatment

“White men represent 73 percent of firearm suicide victims in America.” everytownresearch.org/report/gun-vio…
As a few of you know, I am engaged in finding a way to stop gun crime in the US. I wish there was something that we could do about this too.
This is utterly unecessary and unacceptable and tragic. I thank @MomsDemand for their advocacy.
It should not be so. It need not be so. We need more women in positions of power.

Dear Texas: Did you know the budget for CEO's office ERCOT was $2,100,000+ for salaries and benefits? (and of course there's permanent savings by not hiring the person that was to have earned $53,000 per year - expendable). #TexasBlackout #ERCOT
At least the Corporate Communications team will feasting while it tries to tell you that it didn't let you freeze to death. (Yes that's over $6,000,000 in salaries and benefits).
And I don't know what these other offices do, but it doesn't really seem like the people got their $130,000,000's worth. ercot.com/content/wcm/ke…
