The cops literally let them through.

Guiliani and Trump staking their reputation… I’d need a bit more on their side of the bet. Combined I doubt their reputations would be worth lunch at Micky-D’s

That was appropriate when they breached the outer barrier. Once they stormed the building with a joint session of Congress? Live ammo is appropriate for putting down a violent coup.

I think what were weren’t hearing was:

“We are supposed to stop you so we are gonna stand here and act angy for a moment, then storm away. Have fun, fellow brownshirts.”

Right? I’m already so tired of seeing them described as “Trump supporters.” They’re an unruly mob.

Holy shit. Identify these assholes, fire them, then charge them with sedition.

I get the feeling we may be in for a Northern-Ireland style Troubles, or perhaps a Yugoslavia-class civil war.

Like, I was being largely metaphorical with my whole “the strongest fortress is only as safe as the guy who keeps the door locked” thing, but nope, reality is here to just put it all out there in black and white today I guess.

WTF IS BIDEN THINKING???

Trump isn’t gonna condemn them.

This is goddamn unbelievable. Scary, baffling, and infuriating at the same time. My thoughts are with all the American BBers, especially any DC ones.

Also: I do hope this will be the “Oklahoma City bombing” moment for alt-right and the MAGA crowd, in the sense that they’ve stepped too far, and will get ground into oblivion by the law enforcement and security services, while their political support dries up.

In any case, good luck and godspeed!

He thinks he has to act like he’s still giving 45 & the GOP the benefit of the doubt.

I doubt it. As long as they have beer, Funyuns, and Honey-Boo-Boo reruns, getting them off the couch is a two or three times a year thing at best.

Oh, and like 10% of these folks will probably be on ventilators in a month anyway.

I’m happy to take that weasel on personally.

  1. Cold weather may be working in favor of order being restored. The mob is thinning out. Also the increased presence of National Guard and police is probably helping there too.

  2. Biden is demanding Trump to cut the shit. Trump is hiding in a bunker firing off tweets to incite the mob

I can’t tell you how strongly I hope you’re right.

He did exactly what he should. Called on the current president to get off his lazy ass and do something. Biden can’t do shit, he’s not president yet. But I like the way he finished. “Enough is enough is enough.”

I wish! Seems unlikely though, given, bizarrely enough, how many members of law enforcement and security support the cause of these insurrectionists.
