While I highly value a rights-based system over a rule by men and agree in principle with his argument, the context here is more complicated than he makes out. This incident was orchestrated over a period of time to the degree that it is genuinely perplexing as to why the security forces were not effective in preventing a breach of the US Capitol by a mob. Moreover, there is no let up in the instigation of insurrection yet.Scarborough’s Siren’s Call: MSNBC Host Demands The Arrest Of Trump, Giuliani, and Trump Jr. For InsurrectionJonathan Turley | Shapiro Professor of Public
