Now deceased Sgt. of Arms at the Senate admitted, all of the 'agitation was done by paid agitators'
2022-07-01
[Newsweek] The Senate's Sergeant at Arms during the Capitol riot, Michael Stenger, died on Monday, one day before the Committee investigating the attack is set to reveal new evidence in a surprise hearing on Tuesday.

Stenger's death was reported by Fox News' Chad Pergram on Monday, but the cause of his sudden passing at the age of 71 has not been disclosed.

Stenger was the man in charge of defending the Capitol when this was attacked by an angry mob of Donald Trump's supporters attempting to stop the peaceful transfer of power to elected President Joe Biden on January 6, 2021. On that fateful day, the Senate Sergeant at Arms reportedly refused to request the assistance of the National Guard.

Only one day after the deadly riot, Stenger resigned from the post he had taken on in April 2018 amid harsh criticism against his lack of proper reaction at the attack on the Capitol. Two others top Capitol security officials, including Irving and Sund, also resign on that same day.

#5  So anything he might have had to say as a witness has become hearsay.

Well, it's certainly not going to be treated like a dying declaration.

#4  Did he mean paid agitators on the Right or Antifa types on the Left? Because accusing President Trump of supplying them is very different than accusing the FBI and the Democrats of the same.

Just saying.... the ability to induce hidden death murders goes way back in the DC Swamp/.

They can't all hang themselves ☺ now, can they?

BTW: there is a betting pool on when and how Epstein's recently sentenced gal goes TU.

Strange, very strange indeed.
