Trump replaced all these Cabinet members so they wouldn't invoke the 25th Amendment when this happened

This was as close as a direct attack from one branch to another as we're ever likely to see... unless they fail to act. Censure and sanction isn't enough

Trump is politically untouchable. Yeah, we would like to think otherwise but for all practical purposes he won't be politically held accountable for (or hurt much by) this.
The GOP on the other hand, Dems need to do something here. |

Not a single person resigned today.
I don't care about anonymous comments of concern.

It sounds like this might qualify, but depends on your definition: 1954 United States Capitol shooting - Wikipedia SI

These guys could be facing a minimum of 10 years of prison ASR’s on a law Trump passed over the summer correct?

I'm sure that now the curfew is in effect, we'll see the forced kettling of the protesters tonight before they arrest them /s

Unfortunately today dispels any notion that once Biden is inaugurated, things will settle down.
I fear for the inauguration day itself, and the immediate future within the US; stay safe FOFCers

This is Markwayne Mullin. He said on NBC just now that he confronted them when they came in and told them to go home. He also loves these people.
He's a shit stain. |

Yup! If they let any of this shit slide, 2022 will be a very very bad year for them.

I really would like to see this scene "The chair yields to the Representative from the great state of New Jersey" "Thank you, chair, members. I'd like to ask the assembled 'Hey, douchebags, what did you think was going to happen?'" SI

I heard on NBC that there were just too many to arrest so they will be reviewing social media, capitol building cameras, etc... to identify and charge the rioters.

Something I didn't think of, they should probably operate on the assumption that every computer in the Capitol is compromised.

There were literally thousands more being arrested at protests over the summer. We let people go because there's too many to arrest sounds like a great way to police. |
