As lawmakers made their way to turn the tragedy of January 6 into the farce of impeachment proceedings, many had to step over and around the thousands of National Guardsmen currently deployed to the Capitol Building. Hastily called up to assuage the fears of politicians of an imminent attack, no provision has been taken for the soldiers, who are forced to sleep on the hard marble floors of the Capitol Visitors’ center in what can only be called a shameful mistreatment of America’s troops.

Some 15 to 20 thousand National Guard troops are planned to be deployed in Washington on January 20th to protect Joe Biden, who is supposed to have won more of the popular vote than any candidate in US history. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who has been missing from the House Chamber most of this week, took time Wednesday to address the troops on what she expects from them.

The FBI manhunt for members of the riotous mob that entered the Capitol Building is shaping up to be the largest and most intense in US history, and while almost 100 have been captured, there have already been reports of rally attendees ending their own lives. 

President Trump, speaking in Alamo, Texas, yesterday, reiterated his calls for peace but warned Chuck and Nancy of the dangers of impeachment proceedings in veiled language. He expressed his hope that his wall, which he was inspecting in Alamo, will survive the next Administration.
