Supporters of trump storm congress.

[Worgen]

So, this is fun, it looks like trumps manic tweets have gotten a bunch of his supporters to storm congress, stopping the counting of electoral ballets.

Trump summoned supporters to "wild" protest, and told them to fight. They did

The chaos in the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday unfolded after President Donald Trump spent weeks whipping up his supporters with false allegations of fraud in the Nov. 3 election, culminating in a call to march to the building that represents U.S. democracy.

Sounds like the members of congress are hunkering down in their offices since no one has any idea the motives and potential weapons these people have but the DC mayor has issued a 6pm curfew and it sounds like the national guard might be on the way.

 

[Baffle]

Lunacy. But it's not like a natural disaster, is it? This is a reap--sow issue.

 

[TheMysteriousGX]

I'm seeing a dramatically unequal response

 

[Worgen]

Sounds like the defense department just denied the request of DC officials to deploy the national guard.

Actually, they're underground. Their offices are no longer safe. PBS has a reporter on the inside and is down there with them.


Rumor: DC's Request for the national guard has been denied by the pentagon.

Of course the right would call themselves "revolutionaries" when they are trying to do a coup.

If this fails I half expect Trump to blanket pardon anyone involved, since they're acting in his name. Likely on 1-19-21. Because he is the worst president.

More seriously, time to bring out the tear gas and rubber bullets. Before someone does something that we'd definitely have to hang them for treason for.

I called it in April.

WHY?!

 

[Worgen]

WHY?!

I heard it sounds like we might get regular army showing up but no telling what is true since this is all developing but we do have confirmation of at least one person being shot.

 

[Worgen]

Well we have footage of "protesters" breaking windows and clashing with cops so these are officially rioters now.

 

[Houseman]

Here's the scope of the crowd (2nd tweet)

 

[XsjadoBlayde]

The privilege of not being shot at

 

[Mister Mumbler]

Oh, this means we can charge them with seditious acts, right?

 

[Bartholen]

Now imagine if the people there were black and/or leftists. The streets would be choked with tear gas, awash with blood and littered with the corpses and dismembered body parts of thousands.

Fuck I fucking hate Trump supporters. Every last one of them. Yes, you, personally. This is your party. This is what you stand for. This is what you and your president support. This is the culmination and end goal of your politics. There is no two sides to this, there is no spinning this. They are terrorists, plain and simple.

Fixed that for you.

 

[Hades]

So this is what the fall of democracy looks like.

 

[Houseman]

Waiting for the usual suspects to say ACAB and decry the use of violence against peaceful protesters and generally use the same arguments they use whenever a black person gets shot.



Waiting...

 

[Trunkage]

I called it in April.

The MSM called it in 2015. This was expected

 

[Revnak]

April, guys. April. This was absurdly foreseeable. Remember how much your leaders failed you.
