It did help that the cops just let them in.

Fox news flashed some kind of code shortly before they basically walked in the place. Saw footage of cops and protesters taking selfies and shit like it's a holiday. This could be a long one. If it was me I would cut the water to the block. But it's not. This is gonna be a festival.

Not entirely.  At one of the other approaches, a cop shot one of the boogs in the neck.

Well, one did, yes. However, others were also taking selfies with the people storming the Capitol Building, so....

Also I'm not sure Trump going on TV and saying "yes this election was totes stolen but maybe please calm down" is going to help.

Twitter and FB are deleting his posts left and right.

I think his supporters in Congress may be done, too. They know this shit was all on him.

I'm actually kind of doubting they'll continue with the vote objection bullshit when they get back to it.

I'll take that bet. It will always get funnier. Can't see any way this doesn't escalate.
Nine naked Men just walking down the road will cause a heap of trouble for all concerned.

Yeah. I keep waffling back and forth on it. Are they more mad at Trump, or afraid of their constituents?

Trump just got banned from Twitter for 12 hours, so yes...

QuoteA West Virginia lawmaker took video of himself and other supporters of President Donald Trump rushing into the U.S. Capitol after they breached the security perimeter.

In the video by Republican Del. Derrick Evans, later deleted from his social media page, he is shown wearing a helmet and clamoring at the door to breach the building in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday.

"We're in! Keep it moving, baby!" he said in a packed doorway amid Trump followers holding flags and complaining of being pepper sprayed. Once inside, Evans could be seen on video milling around the Capitol Rotunda, where historical paintings depict the republic's founding, and yelled, "No vandalizing!"

State House of Delegates Speaker Roger Hanshaw said Evans will need to "answer to his constituents and colleagues regarding his involvement in what has occurred today."

He said he has not spoken to Evans yet about his involvement.

The delegate from Wayne County said in a statement later on Facebook that he was heading back to West Virginia and "was simply there as an independent member of the media to film history."

I think this one goes all the way down to the wormy core.
"I am that worst of all type of criminal...I cannot bring myself to do what you tell me, because you told me."

There's over 100 of us in this meat-suit. You'd think it runs like a ship, but it's more like a hundred and ten angry ghosts having an old-school QuakeWorld tournament, three people desperately trying to make sure the gamers don't go hungry or soil themselves, and the Facilities manager weeping in the corner as the garbage piles high.

They just counted the Georgia votes because "after the events of the day the senators have withdrawn their objection".

I was mistaken. It happened Tuesday during a graphic display about Georgia.
