Actor James Woods writes the best memes. Here’s one seen at BookwormRoom:

Over the weekend, our household watched the documentary Capitol Punishment, about the January 6 rally in DC. It is a must-see. The Daily Signal’s full interview with Nick Searcy and Chris Burgard is here, and I recommend either watching the video of the interview or reading the transcript before watching the documentary itself.
I found a review online that reflects our own reactions at conejoguardian:
Every freedom-loving American who
honestly cares about what transpired on January 6, 2021 in our nation’s capital
needs to see the riveting new documentary, Capitol Punishment. It’s a gripping and engaging story truthfully told
by the people who were there on the ground that day.
The movie depicts what the
mainstream media and our government wouldn’t show the American people — what
actually happened. It’s an awakening for the people who have yet to understand
the precarious position our freedoms are in. I had no idea how bad the
deception, lies and cover-up could be until I watched this alarming account.
Recently, I had the privilege of
interviewing Chris Burgard, the director, and Nick Searcy, the producer,
of Capitol Punishment. The most
pressing question for me was, what provoked Chris and Nick to document the
events of January 6? Nick explained that it wasn’t until they returned home and
saw how the media portrayed it — in a totally false way, inconsistent with what
they personally witnessed.
“As the lies started to build up,
we decided we wanted to make a movie about that day,” Nick told me.
He says the media suggested that
there were only a few thousand people attending the events in D.C. that day,
when in fact there were well over a million present to peacefully protest an
election they thought was fraudulent and possibly stolen.
Chris noted that there was
virtually no police presence except at the Ellipse where President Trump was
speaking. Strangely, there were no camera crews, either, “almost as if it’s not
happening,” he said. At one point on their walk to the Capitol, Chris told his
wife Lisa, “There is something wrong going on here. There is no police presence
and no major camera crews from CNN, MSNBC, FOX. This is eerie and I have a bad
feeling that someone is going to die here today.”
Chris also witnessed suspicious
people with military microphones dressed in typical Antifa and BLM apparel,
with backpacks. Chris’s crew also documented a few people changing from pro-Trump
clothing to Antifa and BLM clothing in the bushes. [Actually it was the other
way around; Antifa and BLM protestors
wearing black clothes & face masks are filmed changing clothes into
pro-Trump “patriots” garb. -D]
. . . I implore you to watch Capitol Punishment and decide for
yourself if the legacy media and our government deceived the American people.
To watch online for $9.99 (and worth every penny} click here.
I’ve seen links to free access online, but it’s a small amount to pay for such
a valuable resource.
The documentary also focuses on the murder of Ashli Babbitt. When news outlets refer to the “deadly” insurrection of January 6, it's not the Trump supporters who were the aggressors. One of the victims, Ashli Babbitt was fatally shot by Capitol Police officer Lt. Michael Byrd. No charges. The documentary has very distressing but moving interviews with Ms. Babbitt’s widower, Aaron. Below is an image of Ashli Babbitt by Stilton Jarlsberg via BookwormRoom:

BookwormRoom runs a weekly illustrated gallery of photographs and memes. Over the weekend, she ran "The Crazy Times" edition, and here are two she posted:
In recent months, some of the major blogs and YouTube videos have been de-platformed, de-monetized, or have seen Twitter or FB accounts suspended. Among those who have been censored are President Trump, the New York Post, Diamond and Silk, and Candace Owen.
Websites such as NewsBusters, MRCTV, CNSNews.com, The Washington Free Beacon, Breitbart, The Resurgent, Twitchy, RedState, PJ Media, Judicial Watch, The Blaze, Townhall, Project Veritas, LifeNews, PragerU, and The Daily Wire could not be found in an organic search via Google. Google later apologized via Twitter after fixing this so-called pre-election “bug.” (Source: Newsbusters report here)
Smaller blogs that I visit regularly, such as BookwormRoom and Blazing Cat Fur, have been blocked or do not come up on Google searches or Twitter feeds.
By comparison, the Cleveland Tea Party blog is a tiny one; most of what I post here is selected from conservative news aggregators and favorite bloggers and cartoonists. Even though this blog is small potatoes, it may be on Big Tech’s radar screen. Perhaps it is just coincidence, but in the last week, the daily traffic suddenly dropped by about 80%.
I no longer rely on Google searches to track down news and
reports. I either bookmark my go-to
blogs or use a non-Google search engine, such as Bing. I wonder if anyone will read this…
