Next step — the Patriot Party

Donald Trump’s next move is to start a third political party — the Patriot Party — to take on the Democrats and his own Republican Party in the next federal election.

“The movement we started is only just beginning,” Trump said in his farewell address on Tuesday.

Polls show that Trump has strong support among rank-and-file GOP voters. More than 74 million Americans voted for him.

Washington DC — Dystopian City

The normally busy streets around Washington’s Capitol building are empty amid growing threats of violence for Qiáo Biden’s inauguration on Wednesday.

A loudspeaker repeatedly announces in an ominous Communistic monotone:

This is a test of the US Capitol Police audible emergency notification system.

“Super dystopian,” said a member of Remora House DC, an outreach center that shelters the district’s homeless. “Super scary times we live in.”

Kind of like Pyongyang, North Korea

Empty streets — A traffic warden stands alone on a deserted street in Pyongyang.

VIDEO VIOLENCE AS WASHINGTON BRACES FOR ANOTHER INSURRECTION

Angry mob unleashed their rage on a police officer when they stormed the entrance to the U.S. Capitol building in Washington DC last Wednesday.

Screaming protesters dragged the cop down a staircase, stomped on him and struck him with objects, including an American flagpole.

The officer was left face-down on the ground as hooligans threw everything from bottles to a leg crutch at him.

Meanwhile, investigators discovered a plot online laying out plans for another violent insurrection on January 17, President Trump’s last weekend in office.

ANOTHER WASHINGTON DC TRAGEDY

Veteran Capitol police officer commits suicide days after DC riot.

Officer Howard Liebengood, who was assigned to the Senate Division, took his own life on Saturday while off-duty. He was 51 and had been with the Department since April 2005.

His death came as the department is still mourning Officer Brian Sicknick, who was bludgeoned to death with a fire extinguisher when protesters stormed the U.S. Capitol building on Wednesday in a futile attempt to prevent the certification of Joe Biden’s election victory.
