A respected journalist on Twitter posted a video of a tent city in Washington D.C. near the U.S. Capitol building.  When I traveled across the United States, I saw the same ‘tent cities’ in Portland, Seattle, and Denver.  Another journalist commented as to the reason why the tent city was not removed was due to the fact that police officers need an order from the DC Mayor in order to remove it.

DC police officers in the area told me that they cannot evict the illegal encampment because they need the order from @MayorBowser, who appears to want it there.

I find this interesting that the panic button of Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley (M) was removed from her office!  Did someone want ‘the mob’ to harm her? If so, why?

 
Democratic Rep. Says Authorities Probing Her Report That Her Office Panic Buttons Were Removed Before Capitol Riot – Forbes

An investigation is underway into why panic buttons were removed from Rep. Ayanna Pressley’s (D-Mass.) office ahead of last week’s deadly riot in the U.S. Capitol building, a Pressley spokesperson said.

As Pressley’s staff sheltered in the Longworth Office Building across the street from the Capitol during the riot last Wednesday, chief of staff Sarah Groh noticed the panic buttons installed in the congresswoman’s office suite in case of emergencies had been ripped out inexplicably, she told the Boston Globe Wednesday.
