Have you noticed the bait and switch? We’re sure you have.
While thousands of people are massing at the country’s Southern border, hoping to take advantage of President Joe Biden’s welcome mat and enter the country illegally, Democrats would have you believe the real threat to the country remains in Washington, D.C., where armed insurrectionists and white supremacists are preparing for an overthrow of the country, or something like that.
Thursday was going to be the day, or at least one of the days. The rumor was that on March 4 – once the traditional presidential inauguration day – some of the same protesters who came to Washington, D.C., on Jan. 6 were going to come back and, well, wreak havoc. It was all wrapped in some plot that included QAnon.
The day came and U.S. Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, was ready. The House canceled votes in fear, but he decided to sit on the Capitol steps, had himself photographed, sent the photo to news media and let it be known on social media that he was protecting the country. By golly, he was was going to stand up to the “right-wing extremists” who were likely even now coming with their pitchforks and torches.
“I want to make a statement to let people know, those who would threaten those of us who cherish this freedom that we have here, that we refuse to allow those threats to negate our freedom,” he told The Hill.
