Go nuts guys.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has been arranging post-traumatic counseling sessions and is urging lawmakers to attend them after the violent Capitol riots left many deeply scarred.

In an interview published by the Washington Post on Saturday, Pelosi said that the violent events on January 6 had many lawmakers, aides, and staff members seriously fearing for their life.

Pelosi herself was ushered to safety in an off-site location on January 6 while her office was being ransacked by a mob of Trump supporters who left threatening letters on her desk and even stole her aide's laptop, which has not yet been recovered.

On Saturday, two women who said they stormed the Capitol "looking" for Pelosi "to shoot in her friggin' brain" were both charged.

It could have been an opportunity to reflect on how victims of BLM/Antifa riots, encouraged and excused by her party, may have felt. They didn't have security staff to rush them to safety, and they don't get to take some paid time off while the government fixes their businesses, homes, and places of work.

She took time off? Please do tell us.

Good catch. I should have said that more in a general sense. I don't know if she took time off. What I would say is that they're more likely to be able to take a break, or work elsewhere while the state handles repairs, than the poor sods whose businesses and homes were trashed by the BLM/Antifa mobs.
