There has been so much coverage, analysis and outrage following the recent January 6th violence at the United States Capitol for which President Donald Trump has been impeached a second time, by the US House of Representatives under the leadership of Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
We've heard so much about how members of the US congress were left exposed, and how they feared for their lives after some protesters believed to be Trump supporters, forced their way into the Capitol.
The Capitol incident then led to a flurry of unprecedented censorship by big tech including the banning of President Trump, his allies and many of his conservative supporters by Facebook and Twitter, and the shutting down of Parler by Amazon.
The whole thing soon escalated as businesses begin to shut their doors on Trump and his associates over an incident critics say wasn't even fully investigated. This coordinated attack or what they call 'cancel culture' against Trump and his supporters, is believed to be a deliberate attempt at suppressing the truth by silencing everyone else, while promoting one narrative in favor of the democrats.
But while there has been so much noise about the recent attack on the Capitol, many have no idea that President Donald Trump, whom almost everyone is trampling upon right now, was himself left completely vulnerable during the incident, which is said to have already begun before Trump even began to address the protesters.
According to Mark Levin, a constitutionalist and who hosts the show, Life, Liberty & Levin on Fox News Channel, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), New York City Police Department (NYPD), the Washington Department of Justice, the terrorism task force, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell, all knew about the plot to attack the Capitol, but neither informed President Trump, nor did anything about it.
Levin revealed that prior to the incident, The New York Times and The Washington Post had reported that there were preparations in advance for the rally, "in advance, of the president ever going to the mall and giving a speech to attack Capitol Hill." and that "There were militia and others who were arming up to attack the Capitol building."
He said, "Now, how do we know this? We know it because the FBI knew it. We know because the great NYPD knew it. A Virginia FBI office in Norfolk informed the Washington FBI and the Washington Department of Justice. They gave that up to the terrorism task force.
What do they do with this information? We don’t know. We don’t know before the president even spoke. We know the president wasn’t informed about it, so his Secret Service people weren’t. And they sent him into this situation without him knowing."
Speaking further he said," But here’s the deal, the former head of the Capitol police who has been removed — or resigned, he said he spoke with the sergeant at arms of the House and to be sergeant arms of the Senate, and he urged them before the crowd was there to bring in the National Guard. What did they do? They did nothing.
"Who does the sergeant of arms of the House of Representatives report to? The speaker of the House. Who does the sergeant of arms of the U.S. Senate report to? Mitch McConnell at the time.
What did the sergeant of arms of the House tell Pelosi? What did the sergeant of arms of the Senate tell McConnell?
"You want to know why they are rushing this thing through? Because the president didn’t incite anything. I went through his speech, I went through this phony article of impeachment. And, by the way, no matter how you cut it, we have a former federal prosecutor who did almost nothing but prosecute people who incited riots. Jeffrey Scott Shapiro writing in “The Wall Street Journal”: No, Trump isn’t guilty of incitement. You don’t believe me? Everybody loves Turley and Dershowitz, they say exactly the same thing."
"Now, there are several kinds of tyranny in this country, or in any country. We saw tyranny last Wednesday when there was armed individuals who attacked the Capitol building. I was sitting next to my wife Julie, I said to her, since when did Trump supporters have tear gas masks and helmets and are pulling hammers out of their backpacks?
"That’s not Trump supporters. He had 50 rallies for the last three months. Nobody was dressed like that. So, you can smell something was wrong.
"I went on my radio show and said, who are these people? We need to find out who they are. They were violent militia types, or military types. Who the hell know who they were?
"But now, hundreds of thousands of Trump supporters are painted with a brush. And now, we have repression by the left, by the Democrats. Their media, their social media, we can’t even communicate with each other on in this country. They have us all tied up.
"Now, who is attacking the Constitution? Nancy Pelosi has just destroyed separation of powers by the use of the impeachment power this way, she has destroyed separation of powers.
"What else? Chuck Schumer wants to destroy the courts. Chuck Schumer wants to destroy the Senate. Chuck Schumer wants to destroy the Electoral College. “Who is attacking the Constitution?,” I said.
"There’s different types of tyrannies. They’re the nutjobs who were armed up, and there are people in suits and ties and well-dressed, they look really good, they have perfume and cologne on, and they show up in Congress with the tyranny of the legislature.
"The American people saw two tyrannies this week. One today in the House of Representatives, and one last week outside the Capitol building," he concluded.
