    It's so funny seeing the police up on the balcony too, just taking part if anything.

    Blue lives matter will be seriously tested tonight.

    How in the name of all that is holy is there a guy on Fox wondering whether trump could do anymore to calm tensions....

    Trump has literally thrown Pence under the bus and is still stoking the flames

    (Apologies for the tweet but I thought it was needed to show what he's saying)

    https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1346900434540240897?s=19

    He should have his twitter suspended immediately tbh

    The law and order President

    Fox going hard on how shocking it is that the security failed - in one way I understand that, in another way - come on like ffs who is more responsible for the scenes on their screens?

    Some Capitol police trying to gently move protestors on now, its not even 3pm there. Things are gonna get hairy when the sun goes down if something doesn't change.

    Wouldn't you think trump would be there to marshal his troops?

    He made them big promises about what was going to happen today

    CBSN saying protesters have reached senate chamber. What an absolute clusterfùck failure for security services.

    Anyone of those idiots could have a bomb, that whole building will need to be cleared and searched now.

    I think this tweet summarize the stance pretty much; the good news is with shot fired in the chamber being reported I got a feeling even the blue line might start to wake up...

    Already reported that there are multiple items identified as suspicious and potential bombs already. If any of them are a bomb and go off, oh boy...

    Ted Cruz is literally the worst example of a human being that you can imagine. Possibly even worse than Trump - or at least just as bad. An absolutely vile cretin.

    I’d agree with this. Trump is just a broken individual; a creature driven by his neurosis, insecurity and upbringing. Cruz knows exactly what he’s doing. He had no scruples, no compunctions about lying as long as it benefits him. And he is clever. He’s a far more dangerous individual than Trump. Al franken has great chapter on him in “Giant of the Senate”. It opens with the question “why do so many people form an instant dislike to Cruz?” The answer “well it just saves time”.

    This is absolute insanity. Four years of allowing Trump a free pass has accumulated in this.

    Flailing from one crisis to another week on week and no repercussions has led to this. The man should have been put in his place form day dot.

    It's going to get ugly and they only have themselves to blame.

    Some season finale all the same!!!!

    Everyone from Dana Loesch to Alex Jones to Tucker Carlson - to Jon Voight of all people - stirred these people with their own words to rise up;, the belligerent wing of American conservativism stands equally guilty as much as Trump. Maybe more so cos they knew who they were speaking to. Loesch and her ilk openly talked of armed resistance and revolt against the perceived liberal takeover. Here's what happens, terrorists and traitors to America. But they're white so of course, carry on sir. Oh but it's BLM that's dangerous.

    CNN showing a photo with a protestor sitting in the chair Pence was sitting in a while ago. If Trump thinks he gains from this, he needs to be secured immediately for the sake of the U.S preferably in the bunker under lock and key along with his son.

    It’s seems a bit counterproductive to be dressing up in camouflage. But I guess if you have it in your closet you might as well use it.
