It was all fun and games, yesterday. In an extraordinary display of white privilege, a mob of fascists celebrated as they overran Capitol police, smashed windows, terrorized the staff, trashed the place, left pipe bombs outside of offices on capitol grounds, and assaulted people with metal pipes while hunting for Representatives, Senators, and especially, Mike Pence.

They took selfies, stole sensitive items from representative’s offices, and live streamed the carnage. Y’know, super fun stuff! It’s not like anyone got hurt— there was “no violence in the crowd,” as I was told by the Trumpist leader of the Chicago’s police union, John Catanzara. Well, except for Capitol police, several whom are still in critical condition; and the one who died from his wounds. Because #BlueLivesMatter? Oh, and the death of several Trumpists inside the capitol.

But other than that, it was hilarious and fun, right? Those pictures show them all having a ball. It was all good, because Trump literally told them while they were violently wreaking havoc that he ” loves” them and that they were “special!”

Of course, he also told them he would march with them to the Capitol, right after he told them to head over there and make problems for “weak” Republicans. Trump isn’t good at keeping his word. He didn’t go with them… he got out of dodge. And 24 hours later, Trump did a 180: the very same mob he incited to riot, which he praised as patriots, now says they must “be made to pay.”

OH crap. No pardons, huh?

Their cult leader just turned on them to save his own skin. (Too late.) Let’s be real. The president was trying to stage a coup. He resisted sending in troops to quell his own mob. He knows the mountain of corruption and sexual assault charges that await him on January 20th at noon. This was a last ditch effort. It failed, and he cut the MAGA morons loose.

Now those idiots realize this isn’t going to be a simple breaking and entering.

• Seditious conspiracy.
• Damage to federal property.
• Use of explosives.
• Crossing state lines to commit crimes.
• Rebellion and Insurrection.

Double crap. But maybe they won’t find me? Oh wait. I posted it all on Parler. Damn.

Right now, they are losing their jobs. A boatload of them. Yet that is nothing compared to what is coming. Facing 20 years in prison, or worse, their celebratory fun suddenly doesn’t seem so much fun. Especially for those who participated who have a lot to lose…
