Pro-Trump Mob Storms Capitol


Live Updates: Pro-Trump Mob Breaches Capitol, Halting Vote Certification (NY Times)

[ed. This is the most disgusting political 'demonstration' I've ever witnessed in my life. Trump actually encouraged these idiots to march on the Capitol after egging them on and amping them up. Wouldn't that be called inciting a riot? Why aren't police using the same brutal control tactics they've used at BLM and other (peaceful) demonstrations across the country? Where are the police? Trump and his sycophantic Republican supporters in Congress who are directly responsible for this sickening spectacle now bravely Twittering, asking for calm (from a safe distance). Update: Trump on video... "go home, you're special, we love you." No. These people should be rounded up, arrested and charged with treason, domestic terrorism, or sedition. How many will that be, I wonder? Disgusting.]
