The Capitol Police Chief has proposed erecting a permanent fence around the centre of government in DC, prompting a massive backlash.

The Hill notes that acting U.S. Capitol Police Chief Yogananda Pittman made the call, saying it is necessary to ‘prevent another riot’.

“In light of recent events, I can unequivocally say that the vast improvements to the physical security infrastructure must be made to include permanent fencing, and the availability of ready, back-up forces in close proximity to the Capitol,” Pittman said in a statement.

Since the events of January 6th, a huge eight foot fence with razor wire has been built around the Capitol, prompting comparisons to something out of a Mad Max movie.

The call for beefed up security and a permanent fence in DC comes after Joe Biden signed an executive order on his first day to halt construction of the huge fence at the border.

Apparently fences only work if they’re protecting Washington Elites, not everyday Americans.

The call also comes after Nancy Pelosi claimed that “the enemy is within” the House, referring to Republican lawmakers who she says carry guns around the Capitol and have “threatened violence against other members of Congress.”

Pelosi made the comments after a DHS warning called for a continuation of military occupation around government buildings.

The idea of a permanent fence immediately sparked backlash, however.

Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser tweeted “we will not accept extra troops or permanent fencing as a long-term fixture in DC,” but proclaimed that “potentially volatile events” would require temporary extra security.

New York Republican Elise Stefanik, also slammed the idea of a permanent barrier, tweeting “This is the People’s House. I am adamantly opposed. There has been no threat briefing given to Members of Congress to justify this proposal.”

Even some Democrats balked at the proposal:

It is a mistake to turn the home of our democracy into a fortress. The Capitol needs to be safely open for constituents, press, and visitors. https://t.co/P4CenZO4Bu

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer refused to rule out the move to permanently fortify Capitol Hill, telling reporters “I would tend to defer to the experts as to what is the safest way to be. We’ll see, I don’t know.”

Earlier this week it was announced that thousands of National Guard troops are to be kept at the Capitol for weeks, into March and beyond, prompting charges that Democrats have implemented martial law in DC.

After failing to convince even 40 percent of her own constituents to vote for her, Liz Cheney suggested Wednesday that she might try running for President.

Cheney made the comments on the TODAY show, stating “That’s a decision I’m going to make in the coming months… It is something I’m thinking about.”

Cheney also declared “I will do whatever it takes to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office.”

When Liz Cheney says “I will do whatever it takes to keep Donald Trump out of the Oval Office." Is it any wonder most of us think the January 6 Committee is a Stalinist show trial. She is so bitterly anti-Trump how could she be trusted?

As host Savannah Guthrie noted, Cheney will lead an organisation that will mount a “unified effort” to prevent Trump from running for President.

“In coming weeks, Liz will be launching an organization to educate the American people about the ongoing threat to our Republic, and to mobilize a unified effort to oppose any Donald Trump campaign for president,” Cheney spokesperson Jeremy Adler told Politico.

Surely this will all just help Trump.

In her speech earlier this week as it became clear she had lost in a landslide, Cheney actually compared herself to Abraham Lincoln:

Experts Say FBI Mar-a-Lago Raid Will Help Trump

Could be a “remember the Alamo” moment.

Experts are increasingly of the belief that the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago will actually serve to help Donald Trump’s chances of becoming president again in the long run.

Federal agents searched Trump’s Florida home last week, ostensibly to recover classified documents, although the incident is widely being seen as yet another underhanded effort to prevent Trump from running for office again.

Describing the raid as an “assault on a political opponent,” Trump claimed yesterday that the FBI “stole” three of his passports as well as ransacking his wife Melania’s wardrobe.

Experts are increasingly coming around to the view that the raid will in fact bolster Trump’s re-election chances.

“Unless Donald Trump is convicted of one or more felonies before November 2024, he is now, on paper, a much stronger contender than he was before the Mar-a-Lago raid,” said former hedge fund manager and political commentator Charles Ortel.

“Whether you like Donald Trump or loathe him… you must understand that running the Federal Bureau of Investigation like a Stasi or Gestapo is so far beyond acceptable that it is worse than laughable,” he added.

Ortel thinks the Mar-a-Lago raid is a “remember the Alamo” moment and that it will “pull levers at the polls” for Trump at the next election.

“After the looming anti-Democrat deluge, there will be an accounting against all who have trampled the Constitution. This project will continue through and after November 2024,” said Ortel.

Political analyst Sam Hussein broadly agreed with Ortel’s view that the raid will backfire.

“This keeps the focus on Trump. It adds yet another dimension to the myriad of ways liberals have obsessed over ‘getting him’ or seeming to at apparently any cost. But he feeds off the notoriety,” Hussein told Sputnik.

As we highlighted yesterday, GOP Pennsylvania Representative Scott Perry warned that everyday Americans should now plan for “tyranny” to enter their homes in the form of federal agents if they refuse to play nice with the authorities.

In addition to the Trump raid, Americans are angered by the Biden administration’s funding of tens of thousands of new IRS agents, who we now learn are being trained to use “deadly force” against citizens.
