    @Loki @89th It’s not very cool in my book. We put together a logistical plan that would have cost us 10 hours. The plan was approved by the security people, but the bean counters decided differently. Now my sales staff is losing three days of deliveries which costs them income.

      Charge more? That an option?

                  @Aqua-Letifer that’s bananas. They’re also shutting down all bridges across the river other than the American Legion and Wilson (far edges of the beltway).

                  To say this is overkill is an understatement but I get it. Trump fired these treasonous folks up and the government is preparing in kind.

                  Maybe not, at least not by much. Maybe. I remember reading about the security coverage for Obama, and being surprised at how heavy it was. I especially remember reading that it extended all the way to New Jersey! 😲

                    Remember when Trump wanting to call in the National Guard because violent mobs were trying to attack the White House and wanted to kill him and it was called fascism and cowardly? Good times...

                      I'm old enough to remember when cops couldn't safely do their jobs to quell mob violence in 2020 without their tactics being put under a microscope. Much less would it have been feasible to deploy the national guard.

                      Education is extremely important.

                          Our Capitol has been assaulted often over the last 50 years. The difference is this time was somewhat successful..,

                              That’s much different. The Capitol has been breached by a malevolent force every single day by Nancy Pelosi...

                              You might mean illegally breached by a malevolent force... Well, that’s likely also been every single day by Nancy Pelosi...

                              If you meant illegally breached breached by a malevolent force and can be proven in a court of law, then we can agree...

                                    If Jon gave a damn about the country, he would be seething over Crossfire Hurricane. He didn't. He hasn't. And he won't.

                                    Thing is, he's not alone. The MSM squashed the Hunter Biden story. Many people who voted for Biden and did not know about Hunter's problems, said they would not have voted for Biden or at the very least, considered their vote more heavily.

                                    Big Tech has done everything possible to help squelch Trump and his supporters. Censorship for thee and not for me...The "me" in this case being the smarter, better people. Or so they think.

                                    At the end of the day, this is all about power and making sure the "right" people hold the office of the Presidency and control of the reins of government. After all, the Chinese demand a return on their money...

                                    “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

                                    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

                                          https://www.speaker.gov/sites/speaker.house.gov/files/20210315_SAALetteronCapitolComplexSecurityPosture.pdf

                                          The powers that be will start to reduce the fencing structure around the Capitol. The memo also says something about anticipating the reduction of National Guard presence “in the coming week” but no specifics.
