Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick Died Of Natural Causes, MEDICAL EXAMINER RULES
Updated April 19, 20217:00 PM ET

U.S. Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who engaged with pro-Trump rioters during the Jan. 6 insurrection, died of natural causes the day after
the attack, WASHINGTON, D.C.'S CHIEF MEDICAL EXAMINER announced Monday.
Sicknick died after suffering strokes, the Office of Chief Medical Examiner, Dr. Francisco Diaz, said in a report. In an interview, Diaz told The
Washington Post, which first reported on the determination, that Sicknick suffered two strokes.
Sicknick, 42, was sprayed with a chemical substance outside the Capitol at around 2:20 p.m. ET on Jan. 6, the report said.
HE DID NOT SUFFER AN ALLERGIC REACTION TO THE CHEMICAL IRRITANTS DISPENSED BY RIOTERS, Diaz told the Post, nor was there evidence of internal or
external injuries.

Didn't think so. One of them was compared to Pearl Harbor and 9/11 by our vice
president. The other one barely made the news and was referred to as a mere
"sit-in." Both were attacks by political activists on government buildings.

Protesters Arrested After Sit-In At Interior Department
Dozens of protesters were arrested after they waged a sit-in at the Interior
Department on Thursday to protest fossil fuel projects.
People vs. Fossil Fuels, which organized a five-day protest event aimed at
pressing President Biden to declare climate change an emergency and compel him
to stop approving fossil fuel projects, reported on Thursday that 55 people had
been arrested during the sit-in.
The group alleged that police had "acted aggressively with the water
protectors" and had used stun guns on at least two people. They alleged that
others had been hit with batons.
Footage and photos circulated online of people being arrested inside the
building.
21 water protectors remain after most of the group has been arrested. Police

"For the land, for our waters, for our future- we must fight now so our young
will thrive. You can arrest us, tear gas us, poison us but there will always be
more hearts to continue the song until we are all free," Indigenous leaders who
led the sit-in said in a statement.
In a statement following the event, Interior Department spokesperson Melissa
Schwartz said that "multiple injuries were sustained by security personnel, and
one officer has been transported to a nearby hospital."
She said Interior Secretary Deb Haaland, who is Native American, had been
traveling and was not in Washington, D.C., during the event,
"Interior Department leadership believes strongly in respecting and upholding
the right to free speech and peaceful protest. Centering the voices of lawful
protesters is and will continue to be an important foundation of our
democracy," Schwartz said. "It 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."
Statement from the Interior Dept: "Early this afternoon, a group of protesters
entered the Stewart Lee Udall Main Interior Building. Federal Protective
Service personnel responded to the area to mitigate the situation.

The Federal Protective Service (FPS) did not indicate how many people had been
arrested but noted in a statement that several other law enforcement agencies
had assisted them in efforts "to detain, prosecute or take action against
anyone who caused harm and attempted to disrupt the business of the federal
government yesterday."
"FPS is committed to the safety of demonstrators participating in lawful
protests and fully supports the peaceful expression of all people. FPS will
continue to pursue our mission of ensuring the safety and security of federal
employees and facilities, consistent with the law," the FPS said in a
statement.
2. President Moved to Bunker After White House Fence Breach
In June 2020, then-President Donald Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, and their
son Barron were reportedly rushed to a secure bunker when a group of protesters
breached temporary barricades that had been set up around the White House
complex.
Secret Service reportedly arrested and charged at least four protesters with
unlawful entry at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Protesters' Breach Of Temporary Fences Near White House Complex Prompted Secret
Service To Move Trump To Secure Bunker
President Trump was rushed to a secure bunker in the White House on Friday
evening after a group of protesters hopped over temporary barricades set up
near the Treasury Department grounds, according to arrest records and people
familiar with the incident.
The security move came after multiple people crossed over fences that had been
erected to create a larger barrier around the White House complex around 7 p.m.
3. Wisconsin Capitol Overwhelmed
In 2011, thousands of people opposed to Republican Gov. Scott Walker filled the
Wisconsin state Capitol, screaming in opposition to the governor's budget
repair bill.
The Occupy movement didn't start on Wall Street in September 2011. It started
on my street in Wisconsin's capital seven months earlier. At one point, more
than 100,000 protesters occupied our state Capitol and square.
Protesters Take State Capital in Wisconsin
Wisconsin Senate Democratic Leader Mark Miller says, "This is a disaster."
Feb. 18, 2011 Crowds protesting proposed budget-cutting moves that threaten the
bargaining rights of many Wisconsin state employees grew to nearly 40,000
today, helping paralyze Madison, the state capital, for yet another day.
Despite the protests, and an exodus of Democratic state senators that has
prevented a vote on a controversial Republican proposal, Republican Gov. Scott
Walker remains committed to a plan to curb the state's unions and force them to
contribute more for benefits and believes it will pass the legislature.
Walker told reporters Friday that he would not "allow protesters to drown out
the voice of the taxpayers," adding that he had received 19,000 supportive e-
mails this week and that a "quiet majority" of the state's residents are behind
his plan.
Madison, Wis., has become a magnet in the national and emotional debate over
budget priorities, drawing figures including the Rev. Jesse Jackson and the
head of the national AFL-CIO.
Even President Obama has injected himself into the growing fracas.
"Some of what I've heard coming out of Wisconsin, where you're just making it
harder for public employees to collectively bargain generally, seems like more
of an assault on unions," Obama told Milwaukee's WTMJ-TV in an interview
Wednesday at the White House.
Key Democrats still are missing in action, holed up at a hotel across the
border in Illinois after fleeing a vote in the Wisconsin Senate on Thursday.
Republicans outnumber Democrats in the state Senate 19-14, but 20 state
senators need to be present to hold a vote.
"This might be the only option we really have to try to say to the governor,
'Let's slow this down, you're ramming this through,'" said state Sen. Dave
Hansen.
"The idea is to sit down and negotiate," said state Senate Minority Leader Mark
Miller, one of the Democrats who left the state. "We've heard over 1,000 people
testify about the impact this is going to have on their lives. It's
heartbreaking. People break down in tears. This is a disaster and we're being
asked to swallow it in just four days."
On Thursday night, more public workers, including firefighters, poured into the
capital. Some families camped out overnight in a last-ditch effort to protest
the moves they feared would cripple their union rights.
"I want to do anything in my power to raise awareness that this can't happen,"
said one protester.
"We've taken less pay for the benefits, so now simply to cut our benefits is
just totally unfair," said a retired teacher, Jim Thompson.
On Thursday, Republicans were poised to pass an austerity budget requiring
state workers to pay more for pensions and health care.
But what really has protesters steamed is a dramatic move by the Republican
governor to eliminate union bargaining on everything from wages to work rules.
"He's trying to dictate what we'll do, how we'll do it, when it'll be done,"
said Deborah Caldwell, a teacher.
"It's about stripping away our rights to have a union," said a local union
steward identified as Aniel.
4. Portland Federal Courthouse Overtaken by Violence
The federal courthouse in Portland has been a repeated target of violent Antifa
rioters. In July 2020, a mob began setting fires inside the fence protecting
the courthouse, shaking the fence, launching projectiles over it, and even
trying to take it down. Several people even breached it, with rioters launching
projectiles and flashing lasers at the federal police officers who responded.
The next month, the courthouse was shut down completely over domestic terrorism
threats that someone might drive a vehicle filled with explosives into the
building.
Just hours after a security fence was removed from the courthouse in March
2021, rioters broke glass and lit fires once again.

Antifa had previously attempted to menace people inside the federal courthouse
on the afternoon of March 11, yelling "come outside," "you don't scare me
bitch," "death to America," and "f-ck the United States" while hurling water
and other liquids inside the glass doors, banging on them, and attempting to
get inside.

5. Democracy Halted at the Texas Capitol
In July 2013, an unruly mob of pro-abortion demonstrators interfered with the
democratic process when thousands of them occupied the Texas Capitol and
screamed at the top of their lungs, "grinding the Senate to a halt" with the
noise.
How Activists Yelled an Abortion Bill to Death
When efforts by state Sen. Wendy Davis, D-Fort Worth, and other Senate
Democrats to run out the clock on an abortion bill fell short, protesters made
enough noise to grind the Senate chamber to a halt.
Minutes before midnight in the Texas Capitol on Tuesday, thousands of
protesters stopped a restrictive abortion bill in its tracks by yelling at the
top of their lungs.
The remarkable and surprisingly successful moment had not been planned by the
established groups like Planned Parenthood, NARAL Pro-Choice Texas and the
Texas Democratic Party that had done much of the organizing for the protests
against Senate Bill 5. Instead, it grew organically with the help of a smaller
coalition of groups - including local chapters of the Occupy movement and the
International Socialist Organization, or ISO - that helped goad the crowd to a
level of civil disobedience not seen in the Texas Capitol in decades.

6. SCOTUS Police Lines Breached, Senate Overwhelmed by Anti-Kavanaugh Activists
During the dust-up over now-Justice Brett Kavanaugh's nomination and
confirmation to the Supreme Court, which was radically amplified thanks to the
Christine Blasey Ford circus, demonstrators forced their way past law
enforcement, breaching police lines at both the Senate and the Supreme Court,
where they stormed the steps and beat on the doors.
After announcing that he planned to vote for Kavanaugh's confirmation, then-
Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., was accosted on an elevator by several women, who
shouted in his face and wouldn't let him move.
At the beginning of October, shortly before the Senate voted to confirm
Kavanaugh, a mob of protesters took over a part of the Hart Senate Office
Building, which is part of the Capitol complex.
How many of these people were thrown in solitary confinement for obstructing a
democratic process?
https://twitter.com/greg_price11/status/1479193384292175874
Some even made their way into the gallery during the final vote.
7. Senate Bombed by Left-Wing Terrorists
Linda Evans and Susan Rosenberg, two left-wing extremists, along with five
others planted a bomb outside the Senate chamber inside the U.S. Capitol, where
it detonated and caused $1 million in damage in 1983.
On his last day as president, Jan. 20, 2001, Bill Clinton commuted the
sentences of the violent pair, spurred on by his Democrat buddy Jerry Nadler.
As Tristan Justice wrote:
According to the New York Post in 2001, New York Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler,
who today serves as the House Judiciary Committee chairman, played a 'crucial
role' in Clinton's decision to commute Rosenberg's sentence. Nadler's rabbi, a
Nadler spokesman at the time told the Post, gave 'compelling information from
[Rosenberg's] parole hearing' to the Manhattan congressman, who, in turn,
passed on the material to the White House counsel's office. That transfer, the
Post reported, played a 'key role' in the president's decision to include
Rosenberg on his list of 140 last-minute pardons just moments before George W.
Bush took the White House.
Each of the women served only 16 years of her long sentence. Rosenberg escaped
42 years of a 58-year sentence, and Evans trimmed 24 years off her 40-year
sentence.
8. Senate Chamber Breached by Biden Himself
In now-President Joe Biden's farewell address to the Senate in 2009, he claimed
to have broken into the chamber and sat in the vice president's chair when he
was 21 years old. The first time he stood on the Senate floor was when he
visited with friends in the early 1960s, he said.
"I remember vividly the first time I walked in this chamber. I walked through
those doors, but I walked through those doors as a 21-year-old tourist," Biden
claimed. "In those days, you could literally drive right up to the front steps.
... I drove up to the steps and there had been a rare Saturday session. It had
just ended. So I walked up the steps, found myself in front of what we call the
elevators, and I walked to the right to the Reception Room."
"There was no one there. The glass doors, those French doors that lead behind
the chamber, were open. There were no signs then. I just walked," Biden
continued. "... I sat in the presiding officer's chair. I was mesmerized."
He was then caught by a Capitol Police officer. I wonder if Biden thinks his
self-guided Capitol tour "borders on sedition"?
