As always at times of political strife, we have a collective duty to remain calm and ask “cui bono?”

• Social media companies censoring Donald Trump.
• Democrats request Pence remove Trump from office.
• Video appears to show police ushering protesters into Capitol.
• Trump’s social media blocked, certification appears to resume and curfew in Washington DC until 0600 hours, or be ‘subject to arrest’
• Republicans “using chaos as pretext to drop electoral challenge”.
• Cabinet discussing invoking 25th Amendment to remove “mentally unstable” Trump from office.

The session of Congress in which Joe Biden was set to be confirmed as the next US President has been put on recess after the Capitol building was allegedly “stormed” by supporters of Donald Trump.

How one of the most secure buildings on the planet was suddenly vulnerable to “storming” froma couple of hundred Trump supporters remains a mystery. There have been only very limited reports of violence, despite the legendarily itchy trigger fingers of America’s militarized police forces.

This apparent contradiction has not gone unnoticed, even by mainstream voices:

As always with breaking stories designed to create a narrative, story is picking up and discarding threads. There have been as-yet-unsubstantiated reports of “pipe bombs”, but no explosions. Another article accused the “rioters” of “deploying chemicals”.

In “progressive” political circles, this absurd series of events is being used as a catalyst to trigger the potential forceful removal of Donald Trump from office, via the 25h Amendment:

Or even expelling any Republican member of congress that questioned the result of the Presidential election:

The so-called “President-elect” Joe Biden has been quick to label the protests “chaos which borders on sedition”.

The response is escalating quickly. The mayor of Washington DC has been quick to put a curfew order in place, and there is talk of the national guard being brought in.

So, was the whole purpose of the blatantly rigged and fraudulent US election to kick off riots, and eventually a ‘civil war’ to justify a coup by some faction and martial law?

This is the standard “color revolution” playbook anyhow. Is it currently being used in the US by proponents of the New Normal?

Do we really believe some ad hoc rioters just closed Congress?

This has all the hallmarks of a planned rollout…

UPDATE: Donald Trump posted a brief video to social media, repeating his claims of electoral fraud, but telling the protestors to “go home”:

This claim of election fraud is disputed, and this Tweet can’t be replied to, retweeted, or liked due to a risk of violence

…but then totally removed both the video and this tweet, which called on protestors to go home “in love and peace”:

Is this about ending the “risk of violence”? Or is it about purging all evidence of Trump telling the protestors to desist, so he can be blamed?

UPDATE: Democratic Congresswoman McBath has asked that VP Mike Pence remove Trump from office:

UPDATE: Did the police enable the “riot”? Video emerges which appears to show police opening barriers and ushering protesters through:

UPDATE: Certification is reported to have resumed. Trump’s Instagram, Facebook and Twitter have been locked. Various condemnation of Trump for ‘inciting’ violence in the Capitol, including this tweet from Obama:

Various calls for impeachment. City-wide curfew in place in Washington DC from 1800 to 0600 hours.

UPDATE: Global Research is reporting that the few remaining dissenting Republicans in the Senate will use the “Capitol Hill chaos” as a pretext to drop any further challenge to the alleged election of Joe Biden as President.

Meanwhile, many mainstream sources are reporting that Trump’s cabinet is discussing enacting the 25th Amendement to remove Trump from office, alleging he is “mentally unstable”.
