I read a rumor that there is a loose plan in place amongst these idiots that they will occupy the Capitol through to Inauguration Day and prevent Biden from taking his oath of office. The thought is that if he can’t swear on a Bible on the Capitol steps, he cannot be the legitimate President.

I don’t see a lot of food/water on these folks... so good luck with that.

Don't know why this wasn't thought out. This is redicilous.

They are now walking towards the house chamber. Absolutely NUTS. The military should be called ASAP.

So if these protesters can do this to America democracy what is stopping China or Russia from attacking America? Looks pretty easy to do to me, overtake America. Putin... here’s your chance.

I mean...was law enforcement just under prepared, or was this willful negligence? Or something more sinister?

At least one live ammo round has been fired into the building according to Capitol Police. Also, one Dem lawmaker was purportedly warned by police of a possible pipe bomb outside their office.

The only reports I've seen of this so far have come from Twitter.

AP story from less than 10 minutes ago says zero.

My guess is this puts the military in a very difficult spot. Do they use force? Do they ratchet up the force?

Famous last words before you die.
They've breached the inside of the capital too.

No, its gonna end in violence. Maybe a real massacre. Maybe national guard intervention.

Yea, I think this a real possibility.

Side Note: Trump Jr has said that this is wrong, and it's not who we are. Too little, too late Jr.

My God just saw Trump tweets (will not link.)

If there was ever a time for the 25th Amendment, it’s now.
