House Sergeant At Arms ‘Slips Up’ & May
Have Just Revealed Name of Ashli Babbitt’s
Shooter

Original Article

Posted By: OhioNick, 7/4/2021 5:22:12 PM

The Acting House Sergeant at Arms appeared before a House committee and appears to have named Ashli Babbitt’s shooter. Timothy Blodgett, in an exchange with Rep. Herrera-Buetler during a hearing on Jan. 6 that appeared on C-SPAN, seems to have casually dropped the name. [SNIP] It is interesting that Blodgett names an “Officer Byrd” in the context of Ashli Babbitt’s shooting. An African-American Lieutenant Mike Byrd was reported by Roll Call as having once left his service weapon in a bathroom in 2019. “A U.S. Capitol Police lieutenant left his service weapon in a bathroom Monday night and the unattended gun was discovered later by another Capitol Police officer,” Roll Call reported.

Not wanting to pull a Richard Jewell, but Byrd's name has been public for months. Nothing to see here. Go home.

Yes it is something to see, #2; the person who shot and killed Ashli Babbitt is not being held to account. She — and all of us — deserves as much as George Floyd and Michael Brown.

Mike Byrd is the guy. Not just any Capitol Police lieutenant, either… And he’s Lieutenant Byrd, not “Officer Byrd”… He’s the head of the Capitol Police House Detail… What if he didn’t “drop it casually”?

Re #2, it’s been out on the internet since another name - Bailey - was out and found to be erroneous. This is the first “official” disclosure.

Evidently my sarcasm was too subtle. Byrd could be paraded down 5th Avenue but nothing will happen to him with Biden's DOJ.

There are no denials from the press, or Byrd that he is the shooter. If Byrd was innocent he’d provide an alibi.

So the question I don't see being asked is, what was Mr. Byrd doing in the bathroom that so occupied his attention that he lost control of AND WALKED AWAY FROM a (the?) key piece of his lethal service gear? Or, alternatively, for whom and for what purpose did he intentionally LEAVE it there?

Lieutenant Michael Byrd killed an unarmed woman without warning. Kevin McCarthy is wimp and should be replaced before November 2022. He can go live with his benefactor Frank NeverTrump Luntz. Wee need someone like Marjorie Taylor Greene.

I don't think the House Sergeant slipped up. He only disclosed what he knew.

We all guessed what was going on when the government wouldn’t reveal who the shooter was. It’s now a shameless attempt at a cover-up. They railroaded Derek Chauvin for something not nearly as bad as what this Capitol cop did.

Hunter Biden, who spent thousands of dollars on prostitutes across the nation, proposed a plan for them to unionize in a 2019 conversation that was on his leaked hard drive. The president’s son also asserted that he has been “telling strippers for 25 years that they should unionize.” In a March 2, 2019, conversation with an employee from Los Angeles’s Chateau Marmont, obtained by the Washington Examiner, Biden said prostitutes need to organize more. “You organize without even organizing in any traditional way,” Biden said.

Joe Biden, the most popular president ever that no one cares about. Biden traveled to Michigan over the weekend and virtually no supporters lined up to greet him. Biden’s 4th of July speech got 10,000 views on the White House’s YouTube channel. Dementia Joe’s speech lasted 15 minutes and all he spoke about was the Covid vaccine. Biden said getting vaccinated is “the most patriotic thing you can do” – no wonder why nobody watch his speech.

Breaking news alert: National Democrats are suddenly worried about the rise of violent crime. We know this because they’re blaming the bloodshed on Republicans. The previous strategy, meaning before Monday, was a mix of denial and excuse-making, but it wasn’t working. How could it when thousands of people are getting shot and murdered, mostly in cities run by Democrats? Something had to give, and White House press secretary Jen Psaki tipped the new strategy when she concocted the notion that it’s Republicans who actually support defunding the police. Her fatuous attempt to flip reality on its head relied on GOP resistance to another multitrillion-dollar Biden administration boondoggle.

Just ahead of Independence Day, Marvel Comics featured a new Captain America issue in which the Captain slams the American dream as a false promise. The first issue of the new series, “The United States of Captain America,” by writer Christopher Cantwell, was published on June 30, only four days before the country traditionally celebrates its day of independence from Great Britain. As the issue begins, Steve Rogers — the original Cap — grouses about how America is built on “lies.” “I’m loyal to nothing. Except the dream,” Rogers says early in the issue. “Here’s the thing about a dream, though. A dream isn’t real."

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem said the Biden administration hasn’t provided an explanation for canceling the massive fireworks display at Mount Rushmore. President Donald Trump, she said, brought back the Mount Rushmore fireworks display after it was rescinded under the Obama administration, which cited environmental concerns at the time. “We had the fireworks at Mount Rushmore for years,” Noem, a Republican, told Fox News last week. “It wasn’t until President Obama came into office that they took it away.” Noem, who filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration, suggested that “political reasons” were behind the move to not permit the display.

The England players were tonight greeted with a cacophony of boos, whistles and cheers as they took the knee before kick-off in the quarter finals of Euro 2020. Ukraine stayed on their feet as England continued with the Black Lives Matter gesture ahead of the quarter final clash at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. Some speculated online that the crowd could have been booing Ukraine for refusing to kneel, but boos have thundered from Three Lions fans at every game thus far, irrespective of whether or not the opposition has joined England in kneeling. The disapproval for the gesture comes despite the repeated pleas of manager Gareth Southgate and the Football Association.

Students and other young people walking around the Georgetown area of Washington, D.C., struggled to say whether they were "proud" to be American ahead of 4th of July weekend. Ophelie Jacobson, a reporter with Campus Reform — a conservative news site and higher-education watchdog — walked around Georgetown asking young people in the area whether they were proud to be American and whether the United States is the greatest country in the world. "I feel sorry for those young students," Lily Tang Williams, an American citizen who immigrated from China, told "Fox & Friends" on Saturday in response to the video.

The Statue of Liberty is a 'meaningless symbol of hypocrisy' because of America's history of racism, sexism and anti-immigrant sentiment, according to the Washington Post's art and architecture critic.Philip Kennicott, a Pulitzer Prize winner, argued in an essay Saturday that the monument - which has stood for a century as one of the most iconic examples of American freedom - represented 'unfulfilled promises'.He added that the statue was irrelevant to non-white Americans, using as evidence the absence of representations of the statue when he visited a Chicano art exhibit at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington.

Those of Joe Biden’s public behaviors that align with classic dementia symptoms are escalating. In the past few days, he strongly exhibited two symptoms: A type of belligerence that’s a cover-up for confusion and memory loss and a paranoid fear of those in charge of him. I used to spend a lot of time in the company of doctors. What always fascinated me were the tales they told of dealing with patients with early-stage dementia. The most interesting point they made was that elderly people, so as not to lose face or admit their own fears, are superb at deflecting the questions aimed at assessing their cognitive skills and memory.
