Self-styled militia members from Virginia, Ohio and other states made plans to storm the U.S. Capitol days in advance of the Jan. 6 attack, and then communicated in real time as they breached the building on opposite sides and talked about hunting for lawmakers, according to new court documents filed Tuesday.
U.S. authorities charged an apparent Oath Keeper leader, Thomas Edward Caldwell, 66, of Clarke County, Va., in the attack, alleging that the U.S. Navy veteran helped organize a ring of what became 30 or 40 people who “stormed the castle” to disrupt the electoral vote confirmation of President-elect Joe Biden’s victory.

No, it never was a simple speech. It was the lie he has perpetuated since late summer. The "speech" was nothing more than the battle cry. The faux war was declared long ago.

Trump could have averted this months ago with a simple concession speech. Instead, he carried on this false injustice, people bought into it, he was able to raise their blood pressure to the level that violence broke.

We will soon learn the extent to which this was all premeditated
