Democrats are masters at the art of illusion and with the help of their partners in the media had enormous success at manufacturing news over staged events and photo ops that are then given national coverage.
The mother of all opportunities presented itself to the ruthlessly cunning Speaker Nancy Pelosi (she of the kente cloth scarves) with the “armed insurrection” that wasn’t and Democrats are going to milk the events of January 6th in order to establish the false narrative that supporters of former President Donald J. Trump attempted to overthrow the government.
The truth of the matter is that the protests that resulted in a brief occupation of the Capitol were largely peaceful with the only death that can directly be attributable to the events being that of Ashlee Babbitt, a military veteran and Trump supporter who was gunned down in cold blood with a shot to the neck fired by an individual whose identity has been concealed, possibly a black member of the Capitol Police.
Pelosi and the media deliberately lied to the public about the death of Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick and that he was bludgeoned with a fire extinguisher wielded by a Trump supporter but there was never any factual basis to that Nazi-style big lie, no video existed and it was finally admitted that he likely died of a stroke and not by violence.
But Pelosi is undeterred in trying to paint the Capitol Police as heroic figures who risked life and limb to protect the pigs who have sold out the country and are exploiting the “riot” in order to put into place terrifying new domestic terrorism laws that will allow the Democratic party/Deep State to eliminate their political opposition.
On Wednesday, the House voted to award Congressional Gold Medals to the Capitol Police, another one of Pelosi’s shows that treats the law enforcement officers as props at the same time that the party is working to defund and dismantle police forces nationwide as an antidote to “racism” a term which has been expanded to include all obstacles to total Democrat control.

Via The Hill, “Congress honors Capitol Police with Congressional Gold Medals”:
The House on Wednesday approved legislation to award Congressional Gold Medals — one of the highest civilian honors — to law enforcement agencies that protected the Capitol during the deadly insurrection on Jan. 6.
The bill, spearheaded by Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), would award three medals: one for the U.S. Capitol Police, one for the Metropolitan Police Department of the District Columbia and a third medal to be displayed at the Smithsonian in honor of other law enforcement officials that responded to the crisis.
The measure passed in a vote of 413-12, with all no votes coming from Republicans. The bill highlights Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who died while attempting to fend off rioters, and mourns the loss of Capitol Police Officer Howard Liebengoo and Metropolitan Police Department Officer Jeffrey Smith, both of whom committed suicide off-duty following the attack.
The following twelve Republicans refused to play along:
Texas Reps Lance Gooden, Louie Gohmert and Michael Cloud, Florida’s Matt Gaetz and Greg Steube, Kentucky’s Thomas Massie, Maryland’s Andy Harris, Bob Good of Virginia, Arizona Rep. Andy Biggs, John Rose of Tennessee and Andrew Clyde and Marjory Taylor Greene of Georgia.
Democrats tooted their own clown horns, led by Rep. Eric Swalwell who continues to hold a high-ranking position in the House Of Pelosi despite his shacking up with a Chinese spy.

Predictably, the House Republicans who voted against this latest Pelosi-produced sham are being shamed on Shitter Twitter.
ORWELLIAN: House republicans are now trying to pretend the fascist riot on the Capitol never happened — and they want to hijack our bill to give Congressional Gold Medals to hero police as a sinister vehicle. https://t.co/UlnQ5tvESo

The insincerity and cynicism of the anti-police party that champions the message of the Marxist-inspired Black Lives Matter movement marks a new low for Pelosi but Democrats are desperate to keep their myth about the so-called “insurrection” alive for as long as possible.
