Cops: Your support for Trump backfired. Badly.

January 7, 2021. You thought you bought a president's support. You threw your collective support to a sick demagogue.

This from Politico on January 6, 2021. The headline is sufficient: Capitol Police firings imminent after ‘attempted coup,’ top appropriator warns. Shoot first, ask questions later. Right? I've got no qualms with that.
