Look, how would you feel if you saw crowds storm and break down the doors of the British Parliament and kill five cops, injure 145 \u2014 or the German Bundestag or the Italian Parliament?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think you\u2019d wonder. That\u2019s what the rest of the world saw. It\u2019s not who we are. And now we\u2019re proving under pressure that we are not that country. We\u2019re united.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Four officers have committed suicide since Jan.6, 2021. One died of a stroke the following day. None were \u201ckilled.\u201d The only person literally \u201ckilled\u201d on Jan. 6 was an unarmed Trump supporter shot in the neck by a trigger-happy, black Capitol Police officer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[Putin] did what he did because he thought he could split NATO, split Europe and split the United States. We\u2019re going to demonstrate to the whole world no one can split this country,\u201d Biden said in Wisconsin.<\/p>\n<p>Except that Biden had boorishly split the country already by blaming the Ukraine war on his political opponents: everyday people who came to Washington D.C. to protest an obviously corrupt government and its obviously corrupt agencies.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans have been speculating that Putin took Biden\u2019s chaotic August withdrawal from Afghanistan as a sign of weakness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLook, I think the precipitous withdrawal from Afghanistan was a message to people like Putin that America was rethinking our forward-leaning position in the world, and I don\u2019t think if we\u2019d [not] cut and run in Afghanistan, Putin would have tried this at all,\u201d said Sen. Mitch McConnell.<\/p>\n<p>Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo tweeted last week, \u201cVladimir Putin is the same person he was during our administration. The only thing that has changed is American leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Politifact and Snopes.com have not yet weighed in on a casual, massive lie uttered on March 2 by Joe Biden in front of both an audience and cameras: That five police officers were killed by protesters during the Jan. 6, 2021 election protest in Washington.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1358752","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1358752","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1358752"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1358752\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1358752"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1358752"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1358752"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
