The rightwing is responsible for this.

Where is Hawley and Cruz and Jordan and the rest?
Why aren't they out there joining in?
Where is Trump?

I fear Trump's bonespurs are preventing him from leaping to help these disenfranchised patriots.

And the right wing is silent. As is the "I'm not right wing I just am not *that* liberal" coalition.

Anyone, and I mean anyone who kept saying these right wing extremists were anything less than what we are seeing right now with our own eyes.
Even if they denied being right wing themselves.

Seems legit. I mean didn't Trump say he'd send them in to clean up messes in cities whether they wanted it or not?

They have breached the Senate chambers. They were trying to breach the House chambers. The Senate may be going into session in an alternate location where they have been evacuated to.

TV people? I'm not sure who the people are and where you're expecting to hear them.

Well, Bernie Sanders will oversee the budget. I see some money moving away from the Defense Department in the very near future.

Cruz tweeted a denouncement of violence, and others are as well. My problem is that they have fomented this through their rhetoric. If there are deaths, blood will be on the hands of the Representatives and Senators that enabled Trump.

The chambers had been evacuated. A little roughing up as they are cuffed and drug away is good enough for me.

This is the most infuriating thing for me. They can utilize military forces to ***** tear gas clergy at their own ***** church, but they can't send them to help protect a coequal branch of government? ***** clown shoes.

Agreed, however ultimately it falls back on Trump more than anyone because of his false propaganda he has spewn since the moment he knew he lost the election. He would rather go down in defeat having people think it was stolen from him, than actually losing fairly.

Trump's DOD just refused a request from DC to send in the national guard.
Edit: didn't refresh, so I see that was already posted!
Terrorists are on the floor of the House. Reports that teargassed was used by them on the floor.

I'm a little angry. Angry at people who acted like these Proud Boys and MAGA folks were just protestors and not a problem. And that the ones who planned to kidnap the MI governor were outliers. And all the ones who said you can't say anything about what Trump "says" because they are "just words".
We knew.
And they denied it.
And now here we are.
I wish they could show shame. But they can't even condemn it.
