Nationalizing the Capitol Police

Original Article

Posted By: Magnante, 7/11/2021 4:57:30 AM

Do we really want a nationwide federal police force accountable solely to a small number of legislators, not subject to FOIA and other citizen protections applicable to the executive branch? The Acting Chief of the U.S. Capitol Police has recently announced the expansion of their federal force into Florida and California. Two new field offices will be opening in Tampa and San Francisco, due to claims from Acting Chief Yogananda Pittman that the number of threats against sitting Congressmen has doubled in the last year. However, this isn’t D.C.’s first effort to implement a new national police force.

They have no authority outside of Washington DC. Any Governor can and must stop this power grab and imprison anyone who tries to seize authority in their state.

Send the state police in to arrest these clowns for impersonating peace officers. Outside of the Capitol complex and a few select areas in DC, these morons have no jurisdiction. Also, they answer to a three-man Capitol Police board - not to friggin' Nanzi Pelosi. If Acting Chief Wiggum doesn't even understand that, I guess we need a new chief.

The Marxist Communist democrats, republicrats GOPe, etc., will now start the work of unconstitutionally spreading their SS Capitol Police into each individual state just as large and as well funded as America's military. Warning. In 1925 Adolf Hitler formed his own personal bodyguard called the Schutzstaffel (SS). The SS was a major Nazi organization under Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. The SS grew from a small paramilitary unit to an elite, powerful, force that served as the Fuhrer’s “Praetorian Guard’ the Nazi Party’s “Shield Squadron” and a force with as much political influence as the regular German Armed Forces. Built upon the Nazi racial ideology, the SS, under Heinrich Himmler’s command, is said to be primarily responsible for many of the war crimes perpetrated by the Nazis during World War Two. https://canadafreepress.com/article/obamas-civilian-national-security-force All Dictators Need Their Own Police Force Obama’s “Civilian National Security Force” By J.D. Longstreet Four years ago this month—on July 2nd, 2008—Obama delivered a speech in Boulder, Colorado in which he promised the creation and establishment of a “Civilian National Security Force.” He further promised it would be “just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded as the US Military.” It is well known amongst dictators, the world over, that a private army is necessary to control the great unwashed masses over which they force their rule. We have seen Obama steadily assume dictatorial powers over apathetic Americans in just three and a half years. He has all but hushed the people’s voice in government, the US Congress, by simply by-passing them and ruling by executive order—just like any other two-bit dictator. Some feel even the US Supreme Court has lost the steel from its collective spine under withering pressure from our budding domestic dictator, Obama. If one did not know better, one would think there is a move afoot to institute a complete Marxist insurgency in America with Obama at the top—and —at the leading edge. “The things done in every Marxist insurgency are being done in America today.” ... Retired Lt. General William G.“Jerry” Boykin says in a new video he has just released . Boykin is a decorated former Delta Force Commander, US Deputy Under Secretary for Defense, and a recipient of the Purple Heart. General Boykin is troubled by Obama’s promise of a “Civilian National Security Force.” Boykin says the formation of such a force is included in the thousands of pages of the Obamacare Law, AKA: “The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.” Boykin says such a police force would be at Obama’s disposal and is similar to national police forces socialist tyrants used to complete their revolutions. Then—there is the expected drive by Obama to regulate private gun ownership within the US, plus the nationalization of some leading industries, and even stricter regulation of key financial sectors of the US economy—and a pattern begins to emerge. Boykin says all these moves by Obama fit the model used by societies when they move to Marxism. We urge you to visit the site above and, while there, view General Boykin’s video. It is jaw-dropping. These private armies/secret police forces have had different names throughout history but their records drip with blood and power and tyranny. Lets look at just a few: Continue reading the complete article at above web address:

Thanks for the reminder, #11. And add to it the fact that 0bama weaponized almost every department in the federal government including Agriculture and stockpiled millions if not billions of rounds of ammo causing it to be scarce for the average citizen to purchase. So if the local branch of the Capitol Police doesn’t show up at your door, it might be the guy who does soil testing in your area. My governor has already banned the door to door vaccine police and he should ban the Capitol police right now.

This was Obama's great dream, to have his own police force. Someone in Hollywood had already designed the brown shirts for the effort. I think it was to have been called the Stasi, but East Germany had the name copyrighted.

FTA - the last three sentences foretell Amerika's future and bring an ominous message - " The Nazi Party came into power in Germany in January of 1933. By the following summer, it was illegal to belong to any other political party. Without the newly nationalized German police force, it wouldn’t have been possible." Yep, #11, the secret police that Obie promised in 2008 are almost here. Beware that your younger and more impressionable family members will soon be recruited.

The Marxists will not be able to rule us without a federal police state. Beware, they will try and do this incrementally. It started with a call to defund the local police. Then, when the anarchy begins, they can use it as an excuse to federalize some brown shirts, due to the emerging "crisis."

His organization now has irrefutable proof that there was election and recount fraud in Fulton County, Georgia. It’s noteworthy that Biden “won” in Georgia by only 11,779 votes.

With about a third of adults in the U.S. still completely unvaccinated, and cases of COVID-19 on the rise, the U.S. Surgeon General is calling for a war against "health misinformation." On Thursday, Dr. Vivek Murthy is releasing the first Surgeon General's advisory of his time serving in the Biden administration, describing the "urgent threat" posed by the rise of false information around COVID-19 — one that continues to put "lives at risk" and prolong the pandemic. Murthy says Americans must do their part to fight misinformation.
