A point to consider about the mob that stormed our Capitol. [View all]

They came from all over the US to gather in DC at Trump's request.

They were some of the most vocal and active white supremacists and racists in our country.

Many have now been arrested and many more have been identified. That is a good thing. They are no longer hiding in the shadows.

The FBI now has enough information to mostly clean up this nest of vipers and blow-hards. Although I am sure it was not intended, but it is almost like Trump set a trap for them?

They can no longer hide.

And if the FBI continues to arrest them at the rate they have been, it is going to make a huge dent in the white supremacist movement in this country, in my opinion.

If there is anything positive that might come from this tragic event, this could be it.
