I’ve found CNN on my TV: I don’t know the players very very well, but Pennsylvania’s Senator Toomey spoke very well.

I guess capitol police ran out of tear gas and rubber bullets in the summer
Or maybe the crowd is below the required melanin content SI

On the the steps is one thing, inside the building is another - those inside need to be treated like they are carrying out a terrorist attack

I think there's a real risk that if the police started opening fire, the crowd would as well.
I'm not sure how this ends well. SI

This is the MAGA Super Bowl. They're more stoked about this than if Trump won and they went to the inauguration.

Imagine a BLM protest getting this far up the building and the chambers?
And now both chambers are in recess and a result of this attempted coup. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk

It is ALMOST like the incident at the Michigan state capitol set a precedent.

They are attempting a fucking coup. Senate and House evacuated. Thanks Trump for making us look like a banana republic.

Clear them the fuck out by any means necessary and get back to work. The GOP caused all this and frankly they need to be out there getting these people out.

The certification is required by law on January 6th. If they can't certify today, what happens...

CNN reporting there's an armed standoff between capitol police and an armed nut (my words not theirs) outside the congressional chambers

I've never seen such a clear-cut act of sedition than giving a speech and telling people to take it to the Capitol building, and then THEY DO in an attempt to halt the presidential certification. Trump should be impeached and arrested, pronto

Thankfully most of them aren't wearing masks, so should be able to identify them and charge them.
