    Rioter is not the right word, but I do appreciate the maskless smile for ID.

    I wish our Mayor had the right to deploy our National Guard. Unfortunately, we have to go through the DoD and wait for that permission.

    Apparently Trump won't take calls from even his closest allies. Some staffers didn't go in today because of what they feared, others are taking about resigning. He is the only one who would have a chance of stopping this with no more violence. What the hell can be his endgame at this point?

    Maybe 'letting Trump be Trump' wasn't such a good idea after all.

    ruthbru........I am terrified about what his endgame is going to be. He isn't done. I fear this isn't nearly over. I especially fear for the lives of Biden and Harris. Every single person who has gone against him publicly is at risk. So what will his final "fuck you" be to this country? It sends chills through me.

    These cops aided them. I wondered how the breach happened so quickly. Who was in on it?

    Chris Christie to @GStephanopoulos: "I've been spending the last 25 minutes or so trying to get the president on the phone myself to say this to him directly...The president caused this protest to occur. He's the only one who can make it stop."

    If the president comes out with some god-awful televised remarks, the Cabinet should evoke the 25th Amendment.

    As I watch the live scenes happening on Capitol Hill, I can't help but think I'm watching porn---Trump porn. He's getting his absolutely BEST and most exciting moments here, full-on, all-out masturbatory thrills he's probably often dreamed about.

    Soak it up, Donald....have your orgasmic moment...in a matter of a few weeks you'll be nothing but a fat, stumbling poor golf player boring folks with stories of your "glory days," when you were lauded only by the lousiest, most lawless citizens of a country far too good for you.

    This is so unbelievably horrifying!

    The good news is that Ossoff won in Georgia!

    FBI SWAT is in the building. Hope they brought enough zip ties.

    Trill, I think exactly the same thing, this is an orgasmic moment for Trump. He’s getting his rocks off at people committing this violence in his name. It is utterly astounding that Senate and House Republicans could not see this coming as they vowed to contest the electoral college procedure. Trump cares not one iota for the rioters, their well being, the safety of Congress or our nation’s people. May he burn in hell.

    Surreal. I can't wait to see how Cruz, et al will react after this.

    He has nothing to lose, every time he, marginally, backed down was because of his re-election prospects. That's not on the table anymore and his base loves this sh!t.

    Senator Tammy Duckworth is talking on CBS now saying someone had the presence of mind to grab the electoral votes as they were being evacuated and the Dem Senators are all in favor of reconvening tonight still taking care of the electoral vote! She sounds very strong and determined...and even calm!

    I'm not sure where they relocated Congress. News is just saying “a secure location".

    Not why I joined the military long ago either. How shameful. Those participating ( including all Reps. enablers ) should face punishment's -- to include VERY lg. fines. Trump went on tv to morn that even though all knew that it was a stolen and fraudulent election the people outside the Capital had to go home -- knowing damn well they wouldn't. He is s savage, evil person. I think he has likely destroyed the Reps. party now. He may go but he is going to take as many down with him -- no matter which side. What an abomination. PEOPLE I hope to hell you recognize the lesson in all of this. You asked or it and you now see its fruition. May you all rot in hell.

    As has been noted here, yes, it is great that Jon Ossoff has been declared the other winner of the Senate race in Georgia!

    I took great delight reading what my outspoken, liberal niece, who lives in Atlanta's Dekalb County and who worked at CNN for 10 years, posted about the call: She wrote: “At 4:31 pm, I switched over to FOX News to watch an actual volcanic eruption in progress on live television and had the distinct - and I mean TRUE - pleasure of listening to Bill Hemmer woefully and begrudgingly call the senate race for Jon mother fucking Ossoff.

    CNN hasn't even called it yet, though they've known for a while. But to hear it from Hemmer's shitty little mouth, right now..... that was the climax I've been waiting for the last four and a half fucking years.

    Congratulations Senator-elect Ossoff. Welcome to the shit show.

    THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE."

    Frankly, if Hawley and Cruz even consider going forward with their idiot stunt --- they should never be re-elected to anything more than clean-up detail of latrines.

    The police are using tear gas now. I would think everyone who got inside will be on survellience video. I hope they are arrested and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

    I am not surprised by what is going on, and won't be if it gets much worse. This is what Trump wants, the man worships dictators.

    However, it is still surreal and I am worried for the safety of everyone inside the capitol who actually belong there. The breach was too easy... How do we know if they don't have much worse plans they are working on carrying out right now?

    The question is - will enough of America wake up in time?

    Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., tweeted Wednesday evening that Electoral College ballots were rescued from the Senate floor before protesters were able to get to them.

    "If our capable floor staff hadn't grabbed them, they would have been burned by the mob," he tweeted.
