    Images of the insurrection are hard to stomach. Who did these lawless
    rogues think they were to launch an attack on the federal government?
    Taser barbs flew as demonstrators tried to batter their way past police
    lines, with law enforcers suffering injuries to the point of requiring hospitalization. Chants and obscenities rose from the mob of radicals
    trying to send a message in the form of infiltrating our esteemed
    government quarters with physical force. Some activists vandalized a
    building, while others pinned police against a wall. This rebellion
    against authority was nothing short of sedition.

    Oh, you thought I was talking about this image, where pro-Trump
    demonstrator Ashli Babbitt attempted to force her way into where police
    were holding the line?

    I was actually talking about this scene, where a radical activist
    appears to try the same thing at a different federal building, even
    shouting rCLLetrCOs go!rCY for other demonstrators to follow her.

    Oct. 14 rCyInsurrectionrCO
    IrCOm talking about the rowdy protest outside the Department of the
    Interior on Thursday that turned violent as climate activists stormed
    the entrance rCo the Oct. 14 insurrection.

    These climate activists staged a sit-in within the Interior Department,
    with demonstrators who were left outside struggling with law enforcement officers as they reportedly tried to force their way in, shouting rCLGo
    inside! Go inside!rCY The ordeal resulted in a number of injuries,
    according to multiple sources.

    rCLMultiple injuries were sustained by security personnel, and one officer
    has been transported to a nearby hospital. Medics representing both the Department and the protesters were present,rCY Interior Department
    spokeswoman Melissa Schwartz said in a statement. rCLIt is also our
    obligation to keep everyone safe. We will continue to do everything we
    can to de-escalate the situation while honoring first amendment rights.rCY

    Jennifer K. Falcon, who according to her Twitter bio does communications
    for the Indigenous Environmental Network, tweeted updates of what
    occurred inside the building, which was infiltrated by a large group of activists (whom Falcon referred to as rCLwater protectorsrCY), more than 50
    of whom were arrested and removed.

    rCLUpdate: first round of arrestees are out. Still two rounds left.
    #occupybia #expectus,rCY activist Falcon tweeted after noting that 55
    activists had already been removed from the building.

    Meanwhile, a mob of angry activists outside battled police and continued
    their attack on the federal building.

    Think Back
    Amid this unrest, itrCOs hard not to think about another attack on a
    government building this year, this one back in January, where a group
    of mostly right-wing rioters forced their way into the U.S. Capitol over election integrity. During that riot rCo which the left including
    corporate media described an rCLinsurrectionrCY and Joe Biden said rCLborders on sedition,rCY which is why IrCOve applied that standard here rCo Democrat leaders and pundits immediately flooded Twitter and the airwaves with condemnation of violent activism. An attack on the federal government is
    a threat to democracy, they cried during the attack and then every day
    since rCo until this week.

    A quick look at Twitter trends on Friday afternoon shows rCLCapitol
    PolicerCY trending near the bottom of the list rCo but only because of something related to Jan. 6. Not a peep about the climate extremists
    busting their way into a major government building.

    The Washington PostrCOs little write-up characterized it as rCLclashes,rCY
    with the paperrCOs anodyne tweet saying rCLactivists rCyoccupyrCO Interior DepartmentrCY with some of them rCLentering the building and holding a sit-in,rCY the same blas|- word The Hill used. Something tells me CNN and
    MSNBC wonrCOt be giving this forceful entry quite the same wall-to-wall coverage as the Jan 6. riot, if they cover it at all.

    ThatrCOs because when Democrats and the media pontificate about political violence and rCLattacks on our democracy,rCY they arenrCOt talking about all political violence or all attacks on our government. TheyrCOre only
    talking about the ones they can use to smear Republicans and boost their narrative.

    Remember when then-President Donald Trump was excoriated in the media
    for not condemning the Capitol riot quickly enough? (And then remember
    how Big Tech nuked him from their sites after he called on demonstrators
    to be peaceful and go home? rCo a message those demonstrators never got
    because the sitting president was muzzled by tech oligarchs.) Well,
    where are President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris now that
    these left-wing activists are attacking the federal government? And why
    isnrCOt anyone in the corporate media calling on them to denounce this
    violence clearly and swiftly?

    We know why, which brings us back to the two pictures. There is no
    difference between them. The photos both depict young women, revved up
    about perceived political injustice, taking things a step too far in
    going after those they decided to hold responsible.

    The only disparity is how theyrCOll be treated. One was shot, while the
    other walked away. One was blasted by the press, and one wonrCOt ever make
    the news. The first led to the media complex berating an entire side of
    the political aisle for a violent insurrection and to Big Tech censoring
    swaths of dissidents for deadly misinformation, while the second will
    just be one of the nameless activists who hosted a sit-in barely worth mentioning.

    Despite the mediarCOs disparate treatment, the facts show that the most
    recent rCLinsurrectionrCY mirrors the January one. Which Democrat is going
    to call for an Oct. 14 Commission?
