I'm glad to see the Traitor Caucus get a little dose of fear of what they've enabled.

Had this been BLM the cops would have emptied their guns on the protestors.

I'm pleased with what Mitch McConnell said except... His comparing what's going on right now with when the Dems did the same in 2016. As well as 2004, 2000. Obviously he said all this before the floor was cleared...

T**** will probably be awarding these goons the presidential medal of freedom.

Pence and Grassley in special secure location.

President finally puts out a message that things have gone too far...(WAY too late).

Tell us about Antifa again, Republican posters. And how the Dems didn't condemn things fast enough.

We have more than a few posters with egg on their face. You gents ASKED for this.

Happy?

BTW-----all it takes is for one single person to shoot a gun...and then we have REAL problems. Fing idiots.

I am no fan of the electoral college, but ill-considered gestures have unforeseen consequences.

Yep. Been saying this since Trump took office. Republican voters and leaders are counting on the fact that Dems aren't as corrupt and ethically bankrupt as Republicans.

I'm going to laugh my *ss off if they find out they hard way that they're wrong.

The few people I know who are 'operatives' in DC tell me that the Dems have concluded that the 'when they go low we go high' mantra wins good press but not votes.

Duh.

Dems with a 3 governing bodies are gonna pack the court, end the filibuster, get most states to assign their electoral votes to the winner of the popular vote nationally (here is the Colorado incidence: https://ballotpedia.org/Colorado_Propos ... dum_(2020) ), and run up a YUGE bill doing infrastructure.

More stuff will get done. Richer than rich people will get their tax loopholes cancelled. Po' folk will get a tax break. I suspect that Biden will be on a rampage to make the Biden Presidency relevant. IMHO.

"Chaos engulfed the Capitol on Wednesday as a faction of Republicans sought to overturn President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr.’s victory in Congress and a group of protesters loyal to President Trump tried to storm the building, demanding to be heard.
Around 2:15 p.m., the proceedings ground to a halt as security rushed Vice President Mike Pence out of the Senate chamber and the Capitol building was placed on lockdown, with senators and members of the House locked inside their chambers.

The extraordinary day in Washington laid bare deep divisions both between the two parties and within Republican ranks, the ceremonial counting of electoral votes that unfolds every four years in Congress was transformed into an explosive spectacle, with President Trump stoking the unrest.
“This is what you’ve gotten, guys,” Senator Mitt Romney, Republican of Utah, yelled as the mayhem unfolded in the Senate chamber, apparently addressing his colleagues who were leading the charge to press Mr. Trump’s false claims of a stolen election.

A group of Republicans led by Senator Ted Cruz of Texas objected early Wednesday afternoon to the counting of Arizona’s electoral votes, lodging the first of several extraordinary challenges to its outcome and forcing a two-hour debate in the House and Senate over Mr. Trump’s reckless election fraud claims.

“I rise for myself and 60 of my colleges to object to the count of the electoral ballots from Arizona,” said Representative Paul Gosar, Republican of Arizona. His objection was met with widespread applause by Republicans gathered on the floor of the House of Representatives for the joint session.

Bipartisan majorities in each chamber were prepared to turn back that challenge and others and formalize Mr. Biden’s victory. But the marathon session promised to be a volatile final act of the Trump presidency, with Mr. Trump — unwilling to cede the limelight or his fantasy of victory — transforming a moment of Democratic triumph into a day of defiance by summoning supporters to his backyard for an airing of grievances.

“We will never give up. We will never concede. It doesn’t happen,” Mr. Trump told a gathering of die-hard fans at the Ellipse behind the White House. He urged them to go to the Capitol to register their discontent, not long before a group of protesters breached barricades outside the edifice, clashing with police.

By using the proceeding as a forum for trying to subvert a democratic election, Mr. Trump and his allies are going where no party has since the Reconstruction era of the 19th century, when Congress bargained over the presidency. The effort had already badly divided the Republican Party, forcing lawmakers to go on the record either siding with the president or upholding the results of a democratic election."

Hopefully, all the protesters brought guns with them. As is their right in DC -- US v. Heller.

Members of Congress should bring their guns too -- best way to stop a bad guy is a good guy with a gun. Thanks Scalia!

Fox News bemoaning how bad a job Capitol police are doing.

MAGA.

It is time to impeach this mother fu**Ker again. Suspect we will have better success. You would get 60 votes this time.

Capital police- "mall cops."

A whole bunch of Paul Blarts.

Our friend is one. He loves protests. It's the only excitement they get.

National Guard is being called to the Capitol.

Here in DC they were on radio this morning complaining about no port-a-johns. Calling DC Mayor racist for not providing them. Idiot was standing on The Mall, controlled by IMPOTUS o d, not DC.

Anyone remember the peaceful protestors who SWARMED The Mall post 2016 election?

I bet Faux News is still talking about anything but this Act of Terror...

They’re in the chamber. One is up on the dais yelling “Trump won that election!” This is insane

This is the most shameful day in Republican history. The whole world is watching.

Seditionists the lot of them. Leave or bear the painful consequences. Start with rubber bullets and move up.

Banging down the door...

Wonder what the Kelly girl is going to say now once they get to Georgia. She was supposed to be the one who would register the objection to the Georgia electoral voters.
