    I'll be very interested in seeing how that goes.

    Seriously? This seems like the kind of motion you'd want to fast-track.

    Yes, she was one of the ones breaking through the door, as congress was being evacuated. Secret service left soon after congress did, which is when you started to see the assholes inside the chamber.

    They shot through the door glass... you can see it in one of the images...

    That is what she's doing.
    @Gorsameth misspoke, probably meaning "she's bringing it to the table".

    More like planned and the PD need to be investigated. It's been known for a very long time that MAGA Hats would be marching. Everyone knows their rhetoric and what they do. Their buddies have stormed other state capital buildings with guns and threatened to kidnap governors. They are openly incite violence, security should have been tighter. At least as tight as the peaceful summer protests where you got gased if you didn't walk back to your car fast enough.

    DC officials requested more to be done. If you look at some clips the rioters were practically given a welcome mat until they got too too close.

    Twitter suspended Trump's account for 12hrs.

    We're going to find out if his head really will explode without his favorite hobby.

    Minor correction - 12 hours starting when he removes the tweets that got him temp banned.

    He has to eat his words, THEN wait out the suspension.

    Who wants to bet he starts posting on Parler instead?

    The secret service does not fuck around with protecting their assigned people and there were several present today.

    If Trump switches platforms, that platform is going to absolutely explode. Time to watch closely and see if Trump switches. Might be time to buy some stocks in Parler. I have no qualms about making money off the insanity of others.

    And I think they are going to ban him for good if he breaks the rules again. But as with everyone enabling Trump the past four years, it's a tad too late for them to develop a spine.

    Normally, no. In this case... maybe. Pence was acting in the Role of President of the Senate at the time, so the activation of the national guard at the behest of the legislative branch would have required the request of Pence and Pelosi. It appears that was the route that was used for Federal activation. It is certainly unusual, but the whole thing was, since it bypassed the DoD.

    It also seems the initial national guard deployment was on the sole authority of the DC Mayor, who deployed her own, and also requested and received Troops from Virginia.

    Mitch is hilariously pissed. While I actually totally agree with that speech, but there is an enormous amount of irony about him complaining about the set of circumstances that he was entirely complicit in.

    McConnell gets no forgiveness for his actions or inactions that led to this. He can be angry as he wants, this is still his fault.

    Former Defense Secretary James Mattis says the assault on the US Capitol "was fomented by Mr. Trump"

    Boy, glad he never worked for that asshole. If he did, I'm betting he would have spoken out about this guys instability a long time ago.

    Oh god, I am laughing so hard right now. Sen. Langford was in in the middle of objecting to Oklahoma's results when they fled (Went to recess). He just got the floor back, where he just acknowledged Biden won the election, raised no further complaints, said the commission wasn't happening, and yielded the floor.

    MAGA just cucked itself so hard today.

    Trump's twitter banned for 24 hours.

    "I thought it was 12?"

    They changed their minds.

    Let us speak for the leadership team in saying what so many of us are feeling. We are appalled by the violence at the Capitol today. We are treating these events as an emergency. Our Elections Operations Center has already been active in anticipation of the Georgia elections and the vote by Congress to certify the election, and we are monitoring activity on our platform in real time. For those of you who are wondering, here are the actions we’re taking:

    First, we have been searching for and removing the following content:

    • Praise and support of the storming of the US Capitol
    • Calls to bring weapons to locations across the US — not just in Washington but anywhere in the US — including protests
    • Incitement or encouragement of the events at the Capitol, including videos and photos from the protestors. At this point they represent promotion of criminal activity which violates our policies.
    • Calls for protests — even peaceful ones — if they violate the curfew in DC
    • Attempts to restage violence tomorrow or in the coming days

    As a part of this, we removed from Facebook and Instagram the recent video of President Trump speaking about the protests and his subsequent post about the election results. We made the decision that on balance these posts contribute to, rather than diminish, the risk of ongoing violence.
