No one has a right to be surprised about the Capitol violence

No one has a right to be surprised about the Capitol violence 

I have been a frequent tweeter about Trump losing. Many of them responded with both knowledge of an insurrection and the idiotic arguments reflected in their court filings - plus a total lack of knowledge about how votes are counted and what constitutes a majority of electors. They can neither count nor read. 

Members of the Fox News and EWTN staff will likely be interviewed for advanced knowledge. There is plenty to dredge up. As for people who came to Washington to support the President, they photographed themselves storming the castle. Oops.

The infiltrators will be arrested. I suspect that they will brag about their connections to Congress. There will be more than one arrest. Members cannot hide. No conspiracy, be it QAnon or repeating their lies, can remain uncovered for long. 

Any bishops who knew should also face justice. When all comes out, I will be shocked if some were not in on Trump's mentioning partial birth abortion in the third 2016 debate, how Trump knew to ask (likely Russian hacking) and their role in mobilizing Midwestern Catholic voters. History will not treat them well. Neither will the FBI.

It would not surprise me if the Cabinet comes to Observatory Circle for lunch or dinner sometime soon. Trump ran for re-election thinking he could not be arrested and Pence will not remove him. Had he kept his mouth shut, he might have been able to serve out his term. I doubt that this is now the case. Pence is still his sin eater for not removing him sooner.
