Note: The witness refers several times to "AOC." In this case that is the office of the "Architect of the Capitol," not the big booty Latinx.



This guy is not much different than a typical over-paid, pampered, mid-level government functionary. He misused the perqs of his office, impersonated law enforcement while pursuing a hit-and-run driver, and absented himself from the Capitol on Jan 6th.

He gave private tours of the Capitol to his friends during the time when the American people were denied entry due to COVID restrictions. Because such rules were never meant to apply to those who made them.

He is one of three voting members of the Capitol Police Board along with the Sergeants at Arms for the House and Senate. With leadership like that and as yet unknown participation of agitators sent by the FBI, it is no surprise that the planned peaceful protests got out of hand.


On March 7, 2021, the AOC OIG received a hotline complaint from a private citizen concerning the misuse of an AOC vehicle. According to the complainant, at approximately 1:15 p.m. ET, March 6, 2021, a black Ford Explorer with license plate AOC 053A was observed in the garage of the Walmart near Tyson’s Corner, VA (1500 B Cornerside Blvd., Vienna, VA, 22182). The driver of the vehicle was reportedly a woman with brunette hair, possibly in her 20s or 30s, wearing a flannel shirt, and a passenger was in the front seat. The complainant and their passenger observed the vehicle driving extremely reckless in the parking garage and swerving out of the garage at a high rate of speed, estimated to be about 65 miles per hour (mph) in a 30-mph zone. The complainant claimed the driver made obscene gestures toward them while at the stop sign outside the parking garage.

The OIG later identified the driver and passenger to be the daughters of Mr. James Brett Blanton, SR-00, Architect of the Capitol. The OIG determined the Ford Explorer (AOC 053A) was assigned to the Office of the Chief Security Officer (OCSO) and utilized by Blanton. During the OIG’s review, it was discovered that a previous complaint had been made with the General Services Administration (GSA) referencing the same vehicle (AOC 053A) in December 2020.

Class act.

Still in charge of the Capitol. Still getting a fat monthly check courtesy of the sweat of your brow.
 
Should have never been a president who lied about an election and he spoke at rallies to groups building their anger, and on the day of 1/6/2021 there should not have been a rally by the treasonous president who should not be anywhere but six feet under.

Damn, another failed appointment by Trump.
 
She looks ok to me.
She's a'ight.
Lighten up Francis, it was a joke.
How is it funny?

Just trying to help you, guy. Try this: go for one day without mentioning Trump in a thread on which Trump is not the topic. One day is not going to cure you, because that isn't how overcoming addiction works. It's one day at a time, not one day. But set a one-time, one-day goal so you can get an idea of how tough it would be to quit long term.
 
It's the same "joke" thousands of time a day.

The punchline: "But, Truu-uump!"

You mistake me for someone else.

Prior to poking fun at you in this thread I had not brought Trump up at all unless it was an integral part of the discussion for weeks.

Should have never been a president that stole an election as he sat in his basement and couldn't get 2 people to attend any of his rallies. There should not have been a treasonous president taking illegal money from an enemy through his drug addled son.
