When you've dodged a bullet, and you have a group that are, " a clear and present danger, " then you do something before the next bullet.

[sumiland]

The president wasn't in danger. He was the danger.

[garufia]

This country, especially the DOJ, needs a backbone. CHARGE these people for crying out loud if they broke the law. Justice is only served out on the average citizen and that is it? Prove to us no one is above the law then...come on!

Trump showed more admiration for the insurrectionist than his VP which he showed none. Something is wrong here.

[JamesSmith-rhis]

There is no question whatsoever that voting Trump out of the White House will remain the best decision that the American people have ever made.

[andreakisiner]

Good point about trump not getting or needing protection.

[simplythebest]

Thank you, Rep Madeliene Dean, for your perserverance, steadiness, clarity and VOICE to state the truth. We need you. Please continue. It is crucial at this time.

[td]

THANK GOD! I needed to hear this. I agree completely Madeline.

[yeevita]

No one has said it yet, but I think all of the law enforcement agencies in the US also has some amount of infiltration. HAS, not had.

[benjaminmikes]

Its kind of weird that the Secret Service didn't evacuate the VP

[rgwak]

The sitting president literally said, "It wouldn't be that bad" if his angry mob of supporters killed the VP because he wouldn't overturn the 2020 election. If you still support that clown, you should really take a hard look at yourself and ask "is this why my family never invites me to thanksgiving anymore?" Spoiler alert: Yes. 😂🤣

[vikasd.]

Who will be enabling the next attempt by not prosecuting, letting the culprits of previous one roam free ?

[williamclarke]

Was TRUMP somehow able to personally select Secret Service agents in his detail so that those protecting him we're Trumpsters?

[tori_o]

They don't care if he stole their money. They give it happily, no matter what. A quarter billion dollars is a new level of stupid. Take him down.

[Annam]

Very good point I never even realized that the president should have been whisked away

[ericw]

Whew....thank god we're a Constitutional Republic and not a Democracy

[bluewolf]

This country is in danger with Trump and his supporters. This feels so unreal.

[SlayerEndX]

Have we all forgotten Mike Pence’s security team was protecting the nuclear football that day?

[mistakes]

The proud cowards underestimate just how committed to democracy this country is.

[zombieowen]

How many proud boys are learning to fly planes right now?
