Pelosi Picks Trump-Hating Republican-Bashing Retired General To Lead Capitol Security Review

I know I take all my non-partisan cues from Tucker Carlson, that man is straight up.
Did you even read any of the general's tweets? No you did not. Just started lashing out with the silly
left garbage. He served his nation but when he left the military to the left he went. Just one more leftist hack now.
 
HOW DARE THEY NOT PICK A TRUMPIST TO INVESTIGATE TRUMP!


You people....I swear....
All those years of them saying that "elections matter", and then they don't understand that "elections matter"

Just point and laugh...

General Honore is a preparedness planning expert. The premise of the OP is just horse shit. General Honore is tasked to find out where the Capitol's defense failed, how to make sure it never does again and how to harden the Capitol building against future attacks. All the rest of the OP's attacks are baloney, conjecture and pure nonsense. General Honore is a no-nonsense work horse that WILL fix the problems that allowed Jan. 6 2021 to happen.

"I'm going in with one suit, one tie and my work clothes"

He's not going to be sucked into blame-saying, he's there to fix what's, obviously, broken. When asked if he would identify members of Congress that aided in the insurrection, he said flatly that, "that's outside of my scope of work". Apparently, he does have opinions about some of the participants but that won't color the non-partisan job he has to do, and that's to fix what's broken in the security of OUR Capitol. The OP link to a biased news source is what's partisan, not what General Honore perceives his job to be.


No he is a partisan...... Nothing more! He will push the democratic story line. Just watch.
 
Of course you don't! Blinded as usual. Did you even trying reading the tweets from the General? Nope you did not!

One more Pelosi major screw up. He hated Bush also! How can a person so biased and partisan be named to investigate this?

Pelosi Picks Trump-Hating Republican-Bashing Retired General To Lead Capitol Security Review

“That little peace of shit with his @Yale law degree should be run out of DC and Disbarred ASAP,” retired Lt. Gen. Russel Honoré tweeted about Sen. Josh Hawley six days after the Capitol riots.


A month ago, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi named retired Lt. Gen. Russel Honoré as her pick to lead a review of the security breakdowns that happened during the Capitol riots on January 6th.

Of Honoré, here’s what Pelosi said at the time:

Honoré, who led the Joint Task Force Katrina in the aftermath of the devastating 2005 hurricane, retired from the Army in 2008 after serving for 37 years. It was perhaps because of his lengthy military career and service to his country that no one initially took the time to question whether Pelosi had made the right call in choosing Honoré to review the Capitol’s security.

But during his program on Wednesday, Fox News’ Tucker Carlson did a lengthy segment raising questions about past partisan statements from Honoré and whether or not he was impartial enough to lead the investigation. Carlson noted that Honoré had made statements during interviews and on Twitter that suggested he had already made up his mind about certain aspects of the Capitol riots before he was tasked to lead an investigation into the Capitol’s security.

he alleged – without evidencethat at least 30 to 40% of front-line Capitol police officers were “Trumpsters”, again insinuating complicity
Good, trump picked immigrant hating racist to solve the immigration problem his name was Stephen Miller
 
Did you even read any of the general's tweets? No you did not. Just started lashing out with the silly
left garbage. He served his nation but when he left the military to the left he went. Just one more leftist hack now.

I'll take a "leftist hack" over right wing treasonists any day!!!
 
Sounds like an excellent choice.

Anti environmental idiot Perry to run the EPA, he even ran for president on planning on eliminating it....

Anti education idiot Betsy devous to head the Department of education...

Hello the list is never ending,..
 
The FBI nor the DHS issued a report to Trump or anyone else of the threats. The warnings came from NYC FBI that "scour the bowels of the internet" for suspected threats. It is believed they are the ones that contacted those at the Capitol. Trump administration offered Mayor Bowser the National Guard to assist the DC police because of the size of crowd that was expected and because in the past the DC police have been put through hell because of the large number of BLM/Antifa persons that gathered on a regular basis protesting Trump and it always ended violently with the police and secret service attacked violently. She declined the offer.
https://www.npr.org/2021/01/13/9563...a-threat-report-ahead-of-the-capitol-insurrec
During the Republican convention there was a gathering at the WH . When they left the festivities they were met with the same bunch of anti Trump bullies/instigators being harassers and just hoping that someone would take the bait.
There was a rally in DC 2020 that ended up having Trump supporters being attacked by these same leftist groups while they tried to grab a bite to eat in an outside dining area. These bastards were throwing commercial size fireworks at them while they were trying to eat with their CHILDREN! There were a massive number of videos posted on social media showing these leftist groups bullying people with children along with others trying to incite violence. When nightfall came, the Trump supporters were long gone, the BLM/Antifa/Black Bloc group and the Proud Boys were left and it got violent. There were 4 stabbings that night. One for sure was a Proud Boy. Knowing the possibility with a massive number of people coming to Washington Trump offered Bowser the National Guard. She declined his offer.


Did you read the article you cite? If so, you should have a bit of problem with Trump's Justice Department, which (you are correct) never did issue a report on the threat the rally posed:
From your article:
The bulletins are considered a finished product — a synthesis of validated and analyzed intelligence that helps local law enforcement make informed decisions.

Some FBI officials have said that the bureau and DHS didn't produce a bulletin for Jan. 6 out of concern that doing so might run afoul of First Amendment free speech protections that allow people to protest and assemble peacefully.

But three law enforcement officials told NPR that this didn't stop DHS and the FBI from issuing intelligence bulletins ahead of mostly peaceful demonstrations in Portland, Ore., after the killing of George Floyd last May, before Black Lives Matter marches in Washington in early June or in anticipation of an annual convention of the Islamic Society of North America.

Given all the Sturm und Drang ahead of the Jan. 6 joint session of Congress to count the electoral votes and given all the threats on social media weeks ahead of a pro-Trump rally that morning, it struck Sena and other local law enforcement officials who spoke to NPR as strange that there wasn't a DHS-FBI report on what to expect. Threatening and planning violence aren't protected First Amendment speech.
Additionally, it was the Army Secretary's call, not the mayor's to call in the national guard. The rest of your rant about fireworks thrown at children have absolutely nothing to do with the topic here.
 
Did you even read any of the general's tweets? No you did not. Just started lashing out with the silly
left garbage. He served his nation but when he left the military to the left he went. Just one more leftist hack now.

The next Republican Speaker of the House will be free to appoint the right wing hacks of his choice.
 
No he is a partisan...... Nothing more! He will push the democratic story line. Just watch.
As he said, that's beyond his scope. I doubt there will be anything to "watch" because his findings will be kept secret so as not to make public his suggested remedies to keep the Capitol from being breached again.
 
Yeah, this is Pelosi covering her tracks......best joke of the day, "expect a fair and unbiased report from this general".....LOL.
It is amazing how you can just ignore reality and post.
 
Yes, all the house and senate members ran for cover on Jan 6. Right Wing Trumpkin thugs broke into the Capitol looking to hang Mike Pence and others.

You may want to Google that.

 
It is amazing how you can just ignore reality and post.

You got that backwards.....it's just as bad as the lemmings falling head over heals to believe the "Russian Collusion Delusion", but now they actually believe this retired general who has posted leftist radical posts against Republicans will be bipartisan and fair......now that is too funny.

Sounds like a perfect choice to me. Just because you hate someone doesn't mean you're biased. The person might actually just legitimately be a stupid piece of shit who deserves it.

No a guy is making stuff up as he watches, remember the internet sleuths who thought they identified the Boston marathon bombers.

Lol, none of the Trump supporters were dressed like Antifa thugs, and they can be easily spotted working together to keep them back, while the others were vandalizing.....clear as a bell to see. Again, the video speaks for itself.
