If you know the way Washington DC thinks, specifically thinks about their own scale of importance amid a world filled with lesser people who do not understand the value of their elite place in the construction of government, then you could easily predict what is happening right now.
A previous senate bill that would have afforded security details to Supreme Court Justices, is now stalled in the House of Representatives as Nancy Pelosi and top Democrat politicians add an additional set of people who should gain the full benefit of taxpayer funded security details.
Democrats in the House are using the opportunity provided by bipartisan agreement to enhance the personal security services for the Judicial Branch, in order to assign the same privileges to staff, aides and people who work within the administration of government. DC is nothing if not predictable in their elitist view of their self-importance.
At the same time as Nancy Pelosi and House Democrats, along with some insufferable republicans who pretend not to know how these issues are always manipulated to the benefit of the administrative state, are urgently constructing limits and restrictions to disarm lawful Americans; they are simultaneously building their own system of personal protective services to insure they never have to face the same physical risks they initiate upon everyone else.
WASHINGTON DC – […] House Democratic leadership didn’t agree to the vote because they want a broader bill that would include enhanced security, which could include extending protection to clerks and other staff.
House Minority Whip Steve Scalise asked House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer during an exchange on the floor why Democratic leadership hadn’t put the bill to a vote after it unanimously passed the Senate.
“I think it’s a very relevant question,” Hoyer said in response. “Hopefully can move that as early as possible. I want to tell the gentleman the reason he thought that it might be moving this morning was because last night I thought I had after discussions with Sen. Cornyn, a way forward both the Senate and the House could agree on. Unfortunately this morning that appeared not to be the case.”
The bill’s purpose was brought into sharp focus early Wednesday when an armed man was arrested near Kavanaugh’s Maryland home after making threats against the justice, according to a court spokesperson. The man told law enforcement he had traveled from California to kill “a specific United States Supreme Court Justice,” according to an FBI affidavit filed Wednesday.
Senate Judiciary Chairman Duck Durbin said earlier Thursday that the House is “ready to move” on the bill, telling reporters that “we’re ready to meet with them and resolve our differences” on the legislation.
“What happened this week with Justice Kavanaugh is a reminder that we live in a dangerous place, and these people are vulnerable and we should protect them,” Durbin said.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has been critical of the House for its inaction on the legislation, and on Thursday he slammed Pelosi for what he called a “dangerous dereliction of duty” for slow-walking its passage.
“Inexplicably, this urgent and uncontroversial bill has been sitting on Speaker Pelosi’s desk ever since,” he said. “The same House Democrats whose irresponsible rhetoric has contributed to this dangerous climate are themselves blocking added security for the judges and their spouses and their children.”
Democratic Sen. Chris Coons of Delaware told CNN on Wednesday he is still working with the House on a compromise to enhance security, which could include extending protection to clerks and other staff. (read more)
It is simply the way they think…
Pelosi was very clear when she previously erected a fence with armed guards to keep out the riff raff.
The
We really do need a real insurrection. You know, one featuring guns, rope, and fire.
Yup
To hell with rope! Piano Wire!
Every single thing is theatre with these Communist bastards. Everything.
Remember the shooting at the Senate softball game? Within two days the UNIPARTY passed a true bi-partisan bill to increase the numbers and jurisdiction of the Capitol Brown Shirts.
When it comes to protecting their own corrupt asses, they find common ground in a nano second.
Bastard, Deceitful, Communist F**ks!!
They don’t give one sh*t for all the good people that make up this great country.
In fairness to the democrats.
If I took part in election fraud, created 20% inflation, gave Afghanistan to the Taliban, used the FBI as a gestapo, supported eugenics, colluded in monetary kickbacks and fraud at the expense of the taxpayer, labeled parents protesting racism and child grooming as terrorists, turned America from a shining light to a cesspool swamp, I would want protection also.
Urgent and uncontroversial he says. He sounds like he is practically wetting his pants. However, it is disarm and defund for us. Which can be quite controversial. Argue against and be called racist, uncaring, and ultimately evil. Will all these additional security people be armed? With semi automatic assault type weaponry? Urgent and uncontroversial he says.
Anyone know why the FBI was at the scene of the Maryland shooting today? A private company is not federal jurisdiction. Yet these clowns are on scene? Wtf is that about?
I am guessing because Smithsburg, where this occurred, is very close to Camp David.
Motives haven’t yet been speculated or released nor has much info about the perp.
My money is on “We have to clean up after our staged operation”

lf only ONE YouTuber featured, “How to do something / TAKE ACTION” videos, even if semi-lame, he/she would make gazillions in advertising/viewership.
We know about these DISGUSTING PARASITES … how do we GET RID OF THEM?
My guess, the ones featured at top of YT for us to watch are there for a reason.
Is it too much of a stretch to believe they’re 100% “controlled dis/information” sources?
Not necessarily “liars” but then again, ommitting information which would empower Americans by providing instruction required to actually DO SOMETHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM.
We have an overabundance of knowledgeable, pissed off citizens who regularly discuss amongst themselves.
WHERE ARE THE WARRIORS?
CALL OUT FOR ANYONE UP FOR THE CHALLENGE!

We should ALL be copy/pasting ACTIONABLE RESOURCES every single time we comment on relevant posts.
EVERY SINGLE TIME!
People ALREADY KNOW we have a VERY, VERY BIG PROBLEM!
They just don’t know what they can do to HELP THE CAUSE!
At this point, doubtful anything short of A REVOLUTION will save us!
Dems are just stalling in hopes that one of the “conservative “ justices gets killed.
That is what it looks like.
which could include extending protection to clerks and other staff.
Carry like the rest of us.
Seth Rich could have used a security detail.
They are afraid of the people wanting to
Make Lamp Post Ornaments Great Again !
Pfft. The right has so far failed to produce a competent assassin to remove even a strategically worthy target like Mark Elias, and yet the DC crowd are worried about their little pissant staffers nobody’s ever heard of or cares about?
Inflated sense of self importance indeed.
With democrat politicians it’s always all about them!
I’m an probably an outlier here but not being a royalist, I don’t favor security details for any of these people even the ones covered in the bill before it was expanded to all the courtiers. Let them do what I do: buy a gun, buy body armor, get a CCW and get training.

They want expanded armed security while trying to disarm the people.
Our federal government continues to build a WALL around itself. Self-protection is a primary goal considering the damage they are doing to this country.
That picture of our capital behind a fence with armed goons: does that look like a “free” country to you? Political prisoners? Engineered food and energy shortages aimed at making average citizens suffer? Forced injections or starve? Forced masking and injections by royal decree circumventing legislature? Shutting down small businesses without legislative process by arrogant state dictators?
November 4th was the real insurrection.
At the Miami F1 race I saw the King of Bahrain walking through the starting grid/pit area, he was dressed in normal clothes and no security. At the Monaco GP they reported the daughter of the VP’s husband was at the race along with 20 secret service agents.
Besides which this is the perfect vehicle to ensure all these DC insiders “stay in line!”
They may consider themselves part of the elite class, but I consider them to be the parasitic class.
Until Bullets fly, then I predict their security behaves like Texas beta -beto cops and protects their own PHONEY Baloney Jobs instead of these importantly precious managers of the decline called Congresswhores
