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.

It’s getting ugly out there!
This incident has highlighted the pent up frustration, anger, anxiety, depression even in a highly politically divided nation, spurred on by irresponsible champions
Well said. I agree.
Thanks Mich, it’s truly sobering to see such extremism in what is perceived to be the model of democracy
