A rally on September 18th at the U.S. Capitol to protest the injustice of the continued hold and demonization of protestors arrested at the January 6th riot still being currently held as political prisoners despite not even being accused of, let alone shown to be guilty of, any crimes that justify such a lengthy detention. These prisoners are having their justice delayed and thus denied, presumably because of how useful they are to federal propaganda efforts in fearmongering over the January 6th protest Democrats have been calling an “insurrection” and “sedition” despite neither charge being used in the prosecution of any of the prisoners.
The warnings from the Right
It was to this end that many online were publicly warning that the planned Sept 18th rally in support of the prisoners, though appearing to have been initiated in good faith by true believing conservatives, was going to be hijacked by the Deep State levels of the federal government looking to serve their own propaganda purposes. At best they would use the event to smear the attendees and at worst, instigate violence so the fed-led narrative that the protest on January 6th (which was also later revealed to contain an alarming amount of federal government undercover participants) was more of a danger to the country, or anyone, than it was. These warnings cited the Charlottesville protest in 2017 which was originally organized as a protest against the removal of historical statues, but was hijacked by a group of Racists led by Biden 2020 supporter Richard Spencer who carried tiki torches and chanted “Jews will not replace us” – which was of course the only aspect of the event that the corporate press ended up covering. In anticipation and suspicion of exactly that setup taking place – Proud Boys founder Gavin McInness announced at the time, before the rally in Charlottesville, that all Proud Boy members were forbidden from attending, as he predicted it would be a setup to make the group and all other attendees look racist. While only a couple rogue Proud Boys broke the commandment and attended the rally anyway, the corporate press dutifully smeared the organization as being racists who marched with Nazi’s.
Similarly, on this rally for the Capitol prisoners, former President Trump agreed with the suspicion of how it would be covered and warned his base about the rally in a September 16th interview, calling it a “setup” and said media would use it as an excuse to bash Republicans regardless of its outcome. Specifically:
“On Saturday, that’s a setup,” Trump said about the rally. “If people don’t show up they’ll say, ‘Oh, it’s a lack of spirit.’ And if people do show up they’ll be harassed” – Or worse, set up and made out to be “domestic terrorists” attempting an “insurrection.”
The Results
Most on the Right listened to the warnings and. well. It was a total bust for the feds.
The January 6th riot was completely unarmed with not a single person firing, brandishing, or even having a firearm holstered on their person, which made the attempts to call the riot an “insurrection” look more and more desperate and pathetic, so feds hoped to catch someone they could perceive, paint, or pretend was a threat this time and – AH HA! – A swarm of 7 Capital Police officers in padded armor, helmets, visors, and shields swarmed a man for interrogation and subsequent “arrest” when they finally spotted someone to have been armed. The man then shows them his badge, revealing that he is an undercover fed. Lol… Now busted, all 7 suited-up soldiers extract their boy to safety, escorting him out, yelling at people recording the embarrassing display.
“Are you under cover?” the officers asked as the man pulled out a badge.
Rest assured, everyone: The FBI arrested the FBI at the FBI rally. We can finally sleep with peace.
Actually, we don’t know what agency he was with specifically, so that joke may be unfair. He could have been CIA.
In fact, by all accounts, there were more undercover feds at the rally than there were actual ralliers…
Except their disguises weren’t nearly as good…
Many pointed out that these guys all had their fed watches on display -but I found it extra funny that treason-General Milley sports the fed gear as well:
Selective Force
Reminding everyone that the federal Government indeed knows how to erect barriers when they want to, a fence was put up around the US Capitol building, “as law enforcement braces for Sept. 18 protest“. Meanwhile, thousands of Haitian migrants illegally mobbed into the countries southern border the day prior.
Others pointed out the full on war gear that the Capitol Police were armed with in order to stand around and watch a few people say that unfair prosecution for non-violent criminals is – shocker – a bad thing.
And the selective force of the corporate press in what they report and in what intensities in order to shape narratives conducive to profit:
