ATTENTION

The following raw footage of the breach of the Capitol is over 6 hours long.  It is courtesy of globalnews.ca.  As I've said, the footage is raw, so you might only get a glimpse of someone.  If you're really lucky though, the FBI or Capitol police might find this very helpful.  If you're certain,     TURN THEM IN.  Thanks.

These are the names of the 147 cretins who did their best to upend the legal President of the United States, Joe Biden.  If you, or someone you know live in these areas, perhaps it would be best to oust them in 2022. Go to house.gov to find out if you live there.
